Modern office worker Lin Xiaoman died from overwork and woke up as Xiao Lin, an apprentice in a 1985 state-owned restaurant. The original Xiao Lin was bullied by her master for being dull—even cutting potatoes got her called “worse than a pig”. Desperate, she noticed Chen Mo, the “factory heartthrob” from the machinery plant, always buying leftovers, claiming “my stomach can only take soft food”. Lin Xiaoman modified modern dishes like “tomato stewed beef brisket” for him to taste. To her surprise, Chen Mo became her regular tester and helped her pass the master’s assessment—turns out he’s the nephew of the restaurant’s general manager! Just as she prepared to enter a district cooking competition with creative dishes, her master replaced her with a relative. Then Chen Mo pulled out a recommendation letter: “My uncle tried your food and wants to be your judge.” Little did she know, Chen Mo’s “stomach problem” was an excuse—he’d wanted to protect her since the first time he saw her eating cold steamed buns in the kitchen.
