Wang Haiquan, a gifted chef, poured his heart and soul into building Ding Sheng Xuan. But his childhood friend Qian Hao betrayed him, and investor Sun Wanqing turned against him. Together, they forced him out of the restaurant he had founded, stripped him of all his shares, and blacklisted him throughout the industry, leaving him with nothing overnight. At his lowest point, Wang Haiquan discovers the private recipe notebook of his late father, Lu Honghu, a legendary chef, hidden in their old family home. Through it, he learns that his father was also framed and died with his name unjustly tarnished twenty years ago. The mastermind behind it all was Zhao Deming, president of the Catering Association.
