[The main story is complete, so read with confidence~ More upcoming novels in my collection; see below for the blurbs.]

[My next story will be The Immortal Venerable Was Tormented into a Villain. I'm rolling around and begging you to add it to your collection!!]

Su Miao is a top chef at a Michelin-starred restaurant, but a gas leak causes her to transmigrate.

The good news: She transmigrates into a family of renowned cooks.

The bad news: Her family was slaughtered over its ancestral recipe...

The good news: She's brought to the Imperial Kitchen.

The bad news: She has to start from the bottom...

The good news: The emperor and empress protect her because of her family and its ancestral recipe.

The bad news: ...

Su Miao: What recipe?

But it doesn't matter. Su Miao has no memories of the original host and no ancestral recipe, but she's got a bellyful of modern cooking ideas to bring to the table.

Dish up! Clear Skies After Rain!

Everyone: So refreshing and delicious, with bright colors and a delicate fragrance. It's like spring has arrived!

Su Miao: Spinach... and shredded egg.

Dish up! Bitter First, Sweet After!

Everyone: A blend of bitterness and sweetness, with a smooth, lingering aftertaste that is sweet but not cloying... It seems to sing the praises of our land!

Su Miao: It's just creme caramel. You're making too much of it...

Behold this recipe! Blossoming Prosperity, Rising Higher with Every Step!

Everyone: This cabbage blooms after it has been cooked! Your Majesty! May the nation prosper in the coming year!!!

Su Miao: Hmm... The human imagination really is a treasure that drives progress.

Su Miao rises through the ranks of the Imperial Kitchen with her innovative cooking, but she also unexpectedly takes in a black-clad man covered in injuries: Ning Yuan.

Ning Yuan catches sight of the jade token at Su Miao's waist. "...You're still alive?"

Su Miao: How rude of you!

Some time later, Su Miao suddenly realizes that Ning Yuan, who keeps showing up to mooch meals, bears a striking resemblance to the little black-clad boy who saved her life on the night her family was massacred...

Su Miao: You... You're alive too?!

Ning Yuan: Do we... really have to do this?

Reading guide:

Fantasy novel The Immortal Venerable Was Tormented into a Villain. See below for the blurb

· Taciturn, devoted, unhinged immortal (demon) venerable VS loud, lazy little spirit fruit

In a nutshell: A story about someone who completes seven cycles of reincarnation and ends up with a darkened immortal venerable... (not really)

After the war between gods and demons, the spirit fruit Kong Ming miraculously survived. After a thousand years of cultivation, she became the only fruit spirit in the Three Realms who could go wherever she pleased.

One day she tears down an immortal palace, the next she visits a divine temple, and she has a mountain of debts from all the trouble she caused in the demon realm.

Kong Ming thinks she has nothing to fear in this life, until the day she is punished with a cycle of reincarnation for offending the immortal venerable Cang Yan.

With heavenly tribulation about to descend, Cang Yan steps into everyone's view and takes the lightning strikes meant for Kong Ming.

Beneath the thunderbolts, Cang Yan's immortal robes are in tatters and his immortal body is ruined. Yet he turns back and smiles at Kong Ming without reservation. "Don't be afraid. Your master is here."

Many years later, as Kong Ming and Cang Yan travel along the River of Forgetfulness, she suddenly senses something and says, "Master, actually, I already liked you back when we were in the Celestial Realm."

Cang Yan replies calmly, "I know."

Kong Ming: "Y-you knew? How?"

Cang Yan lets out a soft laugh. "You and Siming spent every day chattering behind my hall. How could I not hear you?"

Kong Ming: "Then why... didn't you ever react?"

Cang Yan: "Do you think these seven turns through reincarnation over ten thousand years were really a tribulation I couldn't escape?"

· One-on-one romance + happy ending + happy ending + happy ending. No matter how angsty the journey gets, it won't affect the happy ending!
