Tang Ke never imagined she would transmigrate into a female side character in an angst novel.
The heroine swings back and forth through a cycle of angst, sweetness, and more angst, eventually dying in the hero's arms in a bad ending.
Tang Ke, meanwhile, is the villainous older sister who obstructs their tragic romance. She doesn't even get a name and is killed off early in a fit of rage.
What? Her current life force is only at 1%? She's on the brink of kicking the bucket?
Save the heroine to keep herself alive. Give the heroine what she wants to get her back on the right track.
To survive, watch how Tang Ke, heir to a legendary chef, wins the heroine over with delicious food and gets her to behave.
When her little sister listens...
Richly braised pork, tender and fatty without being greasy: heroine rescue progress, 1%.
Delicious soup and paper-thin skin on the xiaolongbao: heroine rescue progress, 2%.
Sweet and refreshing osmanthus porridge that leaves a lingering fragrance: heroine rescue progress, 3%.
With delicious food at her fingertips, Tang Ke can keep her rescue mission going!
And if her little sister won't listen and still wants to pursue an angst-filled romance with the hero?
Lock the doors and chain her up. I'll eat while you watch!
Hero: Call me big sister and maybe I'll let you have a bite?
No? Aww, then what about calling me boss?
What kind of little brat is this, stealing the last piece of braised pork from me? Tragic romance? To hell with that! The hero just wants to eat!
Be good and take the right path, and there'll be good food for you. Refuse to listen? Then we're all going to kick the bucket!
Theme: Nothing should be wasted, least of all good food.
