I Earn Merit in the Entertainment Industry Through My Cooking [Gourmet]

[The next novel, When the Villainess Gets Obsessed with Farming on a Dating Show, is currently being serialized. The blurb is at the end. Thanks for adding it to your collection!]

On the ninth life of her tribulation, Su Tang arrived in the modern world and became a minor nobody in the entertainment industry.

In this life, she could only dispel negative emotions with her cooking, earning merit and restoring her spiritual power.

So, on a reality show about experiencing everyday life,

While the others went to haul bricks, Su Tang pushed a cart to the construction site and started selling boxed meals.

Steaming hot and fragrant, she mixed richly sauced dishes with aromatic rice. The blissful feeling of a full stomach made people forget how tiring the day had been.

The workers flocked to her, and nearby college students came by often too. She sold out every day.

While the others exhausted themselves looking after kids, Su Tang applied for a job as a daycare cook.

Her meals were a healthy balance of meat and vegetables. The baby food was delicious, colorful, and cutely arranged.

Even the pickiest children would sit still and eat, turning from fussy eaters into little foodies.

The adults wanted to eat there too. No more eating grass to lose weight or stay fit!

Later, the guests realized that whether it was a night-market stall or a high-end restaurant, Su Tang was always the one making the most money!

Su Tang also became famous for her cooking.

Later, Su Tang discovered that acting could dispel the negative emotions of even more people.

Just as everyone was hoping she'd leave show business and open a restaurant, she accidentally won Best Actress.

When Xie Linxian woke up again, he was back in the modern world. In this life, he was a young Best Actor.

Despite his agent's objections, he still volunteered to appear as a guest on a small variety show.

Xie Linxian had never been sure whether Su Tang was his red bean,

until he picked the carrots out of a little bear plate and heard that familiar line: "No picking out your food!"

******Upcoming novel: When the Villainess Gets Obsessed with Farming on a Dating Show******

After being reborn, Wen Shangshang accidentally got bound to a Villainess Assist System.

System: The world is in chaos. You have to follow the original story and do bad things to make the male and female leads fall in love, then you can save the world!

Wen Shangshang holds a plan for the courtyard of her family's old home and laughs wickedly. "Leave it to me, and you'll have plenty to worry about!"

The System tells her to make things difficult for the female lead, so the male lead can stand up for her and resolve their conflict.

To ensure the mission goes smoothly, the System even gives her a special item: Impulsive Devil Candy.

Wen Shangshang turns around and melts the candy, then sprays it over the vegetable garden.

The tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers, unable to pollinate because of days of rain, all "fly into a rage for the sake of pollination" and successfully set fruit!

Only then does Wen Shangshang pinch the female lead's slender arm and scoff, "You're way too skinny. A carrying pole could press you right into the ground."

She turns and puts the manure-carrying pole on the male lead's shoulder. "Men and women working together makes work easier. Once you've carried the fertilizer, dig up those two mu of land."

The System goes crazy. "Why aren't you doing the mission properly?!"

Wen Shangshang reclines in a rocking chair, enjoying the breeze. In a good mood, she nods toward the entrance. "What's the rush? Isn't the mission already complete?"

In the distance, the male and female leads return side by side, smiling brightly. It's obvious they've stopped arguing.

Halfway through filming the dating show, not only does the System feel something is off, but the production crew is confused too. Is this really a dating show, or is it an agricultural program?

Viewers marvel: Everyone else came here to date. Wen Shangshang, you really do love farming!
