Late-Night Fried Rice Stall [Gourmet]

[The premise is staying the same. The blurb is provisional, and the full manuscript is in progress]

Chen Jingqiu feels like her life is over:

Divorced, fired, forced to take off her scholar's gown and sell fried rice to make ends meet, while her neglected daughter has become rebellious and run away from home...

At 36, Chen Jingqiu stares at her swollen fingers, rubs her aching shoulders, and stands by her deserted fried rice stall, lost and despairing.

Then one day, when she wakes up, a few glowing lines appear before her eyes:

[Congratulations, you've bound the Comeback System. The skill you've chosen: A Culinary Master's Guidance]

[Your current cooking level: Won't kill anyone]

Not long after, in the northern part of the city.

In the desolate night market, an inconspicuous fried rice stall is bustling with customers.

The owner swings an iron spatula, stir-frying over roaring flames, and box after box of fried rice is snapped up.

People sit or stand around the stall, savoring their food in contentment.

Zhang Congzhou tasted this heavenly fried rice at the lowest point in his life.

It was also because of this heavenly fried rice that Zhang Congzhou quit his job and started his own business, eventually becoming the successful Mr. Zhang.

But later, people realized that they could never find Mr. Zhang in the high-rises. Every day, they could see him packing up orders for customers at the food stall in the northern night market.

Chen Jingqiu always thought her daughter was embarrassed by her selling fried rice at a street stall.

That is, until her daughter was brought to the stall by a classmate and said, awkwardly but proudly, "This is my mom."

◎The heroine has a System, but her success comes from hard training and honing her cooking skills. The System is also an important golden finger.

◎Before becoming a mom, Mom had her own interests and life, too. She believes that moms can build better lives and rediscover themselves, but that doesn't mean they don't love their children.
