Jiang Tingyan had just inherited her family's restaurant when the kitchen at the restaurant next door exploded, killing her.
When she woke up, Jiang Tingyan discovered she had been born into a place called Shangzhou, the long-awaited child of Shangzhou's richest man.
As luck would have it, her family ran a restaurant, so Jiang Tingyan didn't have to worry that her culinary skills, which had gone unused before she died, would be useless in her new life.
Twenty years later, Jiang Tingyan proved herself and persuaded her rich father to hand over all his restaurants for her to manage. In one fell swoop, she became the Jiang family's heir and Shangzhou's richest person.
She thought she would now have the wealth of the richest family and marry a handsome husband, reaching the pinnacle of life at last. But then, bam! Her handsome husband schemed against her, and she nearly lost her life!
Well, there went all her hard work, down the drain once again. At least this time she didn't die.
As the saying goes, as long as you're alive, there's always a future.
As for wealth, with real skill and a little more hard work, she could get rich again.
As for a husband, there were countless men in the world. He wasn't the only one. The hunter who had rescued her seemed pretty good, for example.
And the man who had schemed against her? She'd get her revenge sooner or later.
Reader's guide:
1. This is a fictional setting with a mountain of original worldbuilding. Customs and traditions are a hodgepodge.
2. Marriage first, love later; a marriage-of-convenience trope. Both leads are sexually inexperienced.
3. I'm not a professional. Everything serves the plot, so please kindly point out anything that doesn't make sense. I'll fix what I can.
4. You don't have to tell me if you drop the novel. Let's all be happy.
5. I'll add more if I think of anything else.
Please add my upcoming novel next door, The Foil Character in Ancient Times, to your reading list~
