Lin Manman, a modern internet operator, died from overworking on a KPI deadline and transmigrated to 1995 Binhai City, becoming Lin Zhaodi—the "tough boss lady" of "Fulai Breakfast Shop" in the old town. Bold enough to argue with urban management but terrible at business, she’s three months behind on rent and mocked by neighbors as "doomed to poverty forever." One morning, she finds Lu Zhao, a Columbia University finance graduate, passed out at her door—he’d just been scammed by his business partner and had no money left, not even for a steamed bun. Lin lets him stay to help with accounts, and to her surprise, Lu uses data to adjust the number of folds on their baozi from 18 to 24 (boosting repeat customers by 30%) and secures a group meal contract with an office building, making the shop so popular that they have to limit daily customers. With their first pot of gold, they start a pre-made meal business, which becomes Binhai’s "top choice for family breakfast" in just six months. From "strangers sharing a roof" to "each other’s backbone": Lin teaches Lu how to cook noodles with two green vegetables and bargain with vendors by praising their produce first; Lu helps Lin register a company and secretly enrolls her in night school to fulfill her college dream. Just as they’re about to confess their feelings, Lu’s ex-partner shows up with a lawyer to steal their pre-made meal recipe. Lin slams a wok spatula on the table: "No one bullies my man!" For the first time, Lu stands up to someone: "She’s the best investment of my life—mess with her, and I’ll ruin your career in finance." In the end, they take their company public and become a healing couple of "tough boss lady and genius CEO." Even the neighbors who once laughed at Lin now beg for good fortune: "Zhaodi, does your Mr. Lu need any brothers?"
