Qi Qi, a former winner of a culinary gold medal, transmigrates to the interstellar era.
In this age, the overuse and excessive development of mental powers have made mental breakdowns commonplace.
Thus the profession of food therapist was born. Their cuisine could soothe mental powers, and dishes of all kinds quickly sparked a craze.
Qi Qi turns out to be the long-lost biological daughter of a famous interstellar food-therapy family. She grew up in a remote backwater, never applied herself, and couldn't inherit the family's legacy.
Until one day, the disheartened family spent a fortune to send her to an obscure, underfunded department at a famous food-therapy university.
Looking at the words "Chinese Cuisine Department," Qi Qi exclaimed, "Whoa!"
Not long after, at a competition hosted by the number-one food-therapy academy in the interstellar world:
"Japanese cuisine preserves the food's original flavor. It's amazing!!"
"French food is both exquisite and delicious!"
"Turkish cuisine is definitely the best in the world!"
The excitement was at a fever pitch, until a student team of just a handful of people appeared out of nowhere. The "Eight Great Cuisines" they brought stunned the entire venue:
Zhejiang cuisine, fresh and succulent, tender and crisp.
Sichuan cuisine, centered on spicy flavors and balancing clean freshness with rich savoriness.
Fujian cuisine, famed for its aroma and flavor.
Shandong cuisine, savory and full-bodied, bringing out the ingredients' natural flavors.
The whole venue was stunned.
Only the judges looked at them in confusion:
Chinese Cuisine Department? Does our school even have a department like that?
*A feel-good foodie story, an ensemble cast at an academy. It has a plotline involving a real and a fake heiress, but they don't fight. The girls become friends.
Theme: Live earnestly and keep looking on the bright side.
