Sweet Trap Recap
Episode 1 Recap
Baichuan City is named after its rivers flowing into the sea, and is famous worldwide as a capital of gastronomy. Legend has it that 200 years ago, local officials widely recruited chefs, and seven dishes among them were favored by nobility. These chefs thus obtained a kitchen knife engraved with five stars, and the Seven Great Families of Baichuan were thus formed. But due to their monopolistic status, many small chefs without inheritance were oppressed.
To have a day to make a name for themselves, some grassroots chefs even specifically came to challenge those master chefs. Jiang Jie, also a four-star chef, was no exception. Just after he participated in the competition in an orderly manner, he successfully defeated his opponent. Thus, no chef below five stars was his opponent anymore. Unexpectedly, after several years passed, Baichuan suddenly welcomed its eighth five-star chef.
There was also news about him in the newspapers, and everyone was discussing it lively. But Li Nai at the restaurant had no mind to worry about these things and continued to be busy with the fish in her hands. Similarly, the person sitting in the car outside at this moment was also tightly staring at the newspaper in his hand and was also preparing to first challenge the Xue family.
Although this had a certain impact, the other party in this situation still wanted to continue doing things according to his own will, and continue to properly meet Xue Congming's so-called successor. Returning to the room, Li Nai started to pester her master next to her again. This time she brought up again the matter of wanting to handle the main wok by herself.
But the old person in front, who was making fish, completely disagreed with this idea and directly had his apprentice interrupt this thought. By the evening, Li Nai started following the others next to her to sell food at a street stall again. Soon, the queue reached Jiang Jie. He immediately requested to eat black fish noodles.
Although the person standing in front of him directly told him they didn't have this kind of noodles, the other party still insisted on his request. Li Nai, out of necessity, had no choice but to start making the noodles on the spot. Seeing this, she began to work seriously and methodically. After seeing the other party's technique, Jiang Jie began to doubt if she was truly Xue Congming's apprentice.
After making a phone call to confirm, he prepared to continue eating. Unexpectedly, in this situation, urban management officers suddenly came to investigate. After Li Nai heard the news, she quickly packed everything onto the car in a rush and left the scene. At the same time, she didn't forget to tidy everything up and kept instructing that they could continue eating next time if there was a chance.
After the people dispersed, Li Nai started pushing her cart again, preparing to make another bowl of black fish noodles for the customer. Just when she was about to deliver the meal, unexpectedly, someone came to search, so she had no choice but to continue driving the car away. After that, heavy rain started falling from the sky.
Staring at the sign in front of him, Jiang Jie suddenly remembered unpleasant things that happened in his childhood, and his heart grew more hateful. In this situation, he also noticed the person outside the car and was still prepared to go in without hesitation to seize the knife. Unexpectedly, after the competition ended, Chef Xue, having lost his sense of taste, was defeated by the young person in front of him.
Li Nai, who was watching, began to get angry at the other party's ruthless seizing of the knife and turned around and left without hesitation. Jiang Jie, who was behind her, only then heard her name and realized she was his childhood sweetheart, and he began to feel some regret about his decision. On the other side, ever since Chef Xue failed to regain the knife, even the sign of his noodle shop was directly taken down by someone.
Seeing everything in front of him also made him feel very uncomfortable. His apprentice, who witnessed this, then continued to follow behind his master and vowed solemnly to definitely help him regain the knife successfully. After returning, Jiang Jie lay down on the bed by himself and fell asleep. At this time, he started having nightmares again and quickly woke up from the dream. He then started looking at Li Nai's photo for a long time.
Episode 2 Recap
After getting up again, Jiang Jie began to cheer up again and resumed his old business, continuing to cook for guests. Just as he arrived at the restaurant, his assistant reported the number of people who had ordered today and the order situation. Jiang Jie blamed the assistant for not taking down non-seasonal dishes in time, and also proposed the idea of hiring new people, asking the assistant to arrange it.
While cooking, someone next to Jiang Jie suddenly informed him about the news of someone reopening a shop opposite old Xue's place, which made him feel greatly surprised. It turned out that Li Nai and the others next to her on the other side had reopened a shop. She also started operating under her own banner, preparing to regain the knife for her master.
Unexpectedly, even though they offered the benefit of the first meal being free, the others next to her still shook their heads and left directly. This time, Li Nai did not continue to be discouraged and prepared to cheer up again and manage this shop well. Unexpectedly, this time, their first tasting customer turned out to be Jiang Jie. They immediately had to bite the bullet and continue to welcome the other party.
This time, Li Nai could only grit her teeth and enthusiastically welcome the other party. After entering the kitchen, she immediately started holding a knife and making the dish the other party ordered. Unexpectedly, after the meal was ready, the person sitting at the table took a bite of the noodles and immediately frowned, and began to ponder the problems existing in this shop.
However, Li Nai, like a newborn calf not fearing a tiger, did not put these difficulties in her eyes at all and was still prepared to continue running the shop well. Just as Jiang Jie was about to continue expressing his thoughts, he was suddenly interrupted by the person outside. Seeing the intimate actions of the two people, he immediately began to feel that he was meddling a bit too much, so he had to leave the scene dejectedly.
Unexpectedly, after this, the customers in the shop increased. After finishing the shop's business, Li Nai suddenly discovered that everyone hadn't eaten much food, which instantly made her feel depressed. What was even more unexpected was that after going out, someone suddenly came to inform her about the bad news of closing the shop.
Li Nai was not convinced at first, but after reading the reviews above and combining them with the reality, she finally recognized her mistakes and had to temporarily close the shop according to the other party's instructions. On the way leaving, Li Nai suddenly had bad luck again and almost fell to the ground. After getting up, she happened to meet her nemesis, Jiang Jie, and even planned to continue going to his house to freeload on a meal.
After entering, she began sitting nervously on the sofa, flustered, and even seeing that the other party didn't answer the phone, she directly ran into the room. Just when Li Nai almost saw what was inside, Jiang Jie suddenly called her back. After sitting down, there were also two bowls of noodles neatly placed on the table. Staring at the black fish noodles in front of her, Li Nai first tasted them with a trial-and-error attitude.
Unexpectedly, after eating, she desperately continued stuffing the food into her mouth, and even felt that this was the best black fish noodles she had ever eaten, and even tears almost burst out of her eyes. In this situation, although Li Nai admitted the other party's culinary skills, she still felt that he had no meaning of comparison with her master at all, and continued to guarantee that she would successfully regain the knife her master lost one day.
After hearing these words, Jiang Jie, who was sitting opposite, immediately expressed that he was very willing and welcomed her to challenge him at any time. Just like this, after finishing the noodles, Li Nai couldn't help but run out and tell her master about this matter. However, when she returned, she still found her home messy.
After that, she continued to go outside alone to take out the trash, but saw a recruitment notice posted on the wall, and suddenly had an idea in her heart. After making up her mind, Li Nai went directly by herself to apply for a chef position. Although her skills were not very exquisite, she still lasted until the end. Unexpectedly, the answer she got was to be a small warehouse manager.
Although Li Nai was not convinced about her position at first, in order to be able to stay, she had to bite the bullet and do it. Unexpectedly, while she was busy in the warehouse, she started to prepare to lay hands on something again and was just seen by Jiang Jie, who immediately ran over to save the person.
Episode 3 Recap
At this time, Li Nai was badly frightened. When she fell into the person's arms, she got up in a hurried panic and began to complain about the other party scaring her. Unexpectedly, this time Jiang Jie started to feel sorry for her again. After explaining things, he turned around and left. After going out, Jiang Jie suddenly received news of an invitation.
Only then did he learn about the news that his side would pass the review between him and Zhao Ye Qing's family. He still confidently stated that only his side would be the winner. When Li Nai went out and stayed with her good friend, she started worrying again because she didn't have the opportunity to secretly learn cooking skills. This time, she continued discussing plans to secretly approach Jiang Jie to complete her plan.
When she went out, another competition participant next to her suddenly proposed swapping the employee sequence with Li Nai. She happily agreed to this request. After successfully entering, Li Nai happily told the other party that she was in charge of today's dishes. She then continued to busy herself carrying things back and forth. Although Jiang Jie was cooking next to her, he still kept a close eye on the flustered woman in front of him.
After successfully finishing the staff meal, Li Nai happily wanted everyone to praise the wontons she made herself. However, the reaction of the people in front of her was that the taste was still a bit bland. It wasn't until she saw the head chef run into the kitchen alone that she rushed over to ask about the situation. When she poured them out, Jiang Jie, in front of everyone else, seriously pointed out Li Nai's cooking mistakes.
He also mentioned the situation regarding her master's failure. When Li Nai saw that everyone had not eaten much, only then did she realize that something was wrong on her end. After going out, Li Nai directly took off her work clothes and was ready to leave just like that. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie, who had just finished a phone call next to her, still forcefully pulled her back and proactively brought up the matter of her owing him a meal.
Afterward, the two of them continued to a high-end restaurant to eat. After sitting down, Jiang Jie directly stated the real reason why he made her the warehouse manager. It was because her nose and sense of smell were particularly sensitive, and she could successfully distinguish the hidden peppercorns during the test. That's why he assigned her this position. Just like that, after the two people finished their meal, they walked straight out.
Unexpectedly, when Li Nai was alone, she suddenly met the owner of another restaurant, Zhao Jingjing. After sitting down, she learned that the other party wanted to successfully defeat Jiang Jie on the other side through her own gimmick. Thinking that the other party's method was not honorable, Li Nai still directly stated that she intended to rely on her own ability to help her master regain the knife.
Just as Li Nai was leaving with that card, she suddenly remembered the words Jiang Jie had said to her in the restaurant earlier. An idea immediately came to her mind. Unexpectedly, the weather turned bad and it suddenly started pouring rain. Since Li Nai was alone and didn't have an umbrella, she had to continue walking forward, using her bag as cover. This time, she coincidentally ran into Jiang Jie, who was coming with an umbrella.
The two of them bumped into each other. Li Nai in front of him also proactively brought up the matter of being approached by a five-star chef from the other side. This time, Jiang Jie was particularly concerned about her and proactively offered her soup to prevent colds. After going out again, Li Nai continued to lead Jiang Jie, preparing to buy the ten-year aged tangerine peel from the old man next door.
Even another customer nearby was preparing to snatch the business. Seeing that the seller here was undecided, he proactively opened the box inside and told the two people in front of him that among so many tangerine peels, only one jar was what they wanted. After this, Old Chen, who was standing next to them, successfully lost to the sharp-nosed Li Nai. He had no choice but to take her inside the house to cook together.
After finishing the meal and returning, Li Nai also learned from her good friend next door about Zhao Haiyang avoiding Jiang Jie. Her heart was immediately filled with doubts.
Episode 4 Recap
When Jiang Jie came to the scene alone, he also met Zhao Jingjing. Facing the enthusiastic welcome from the person in front of him, he still wore his usual cold expression and showed no sign of happiness. Just after Director Jin arrived at the scene, everyone started greeting each other politely again, and also talked about the stories of the excellent chefs from Baichuan.
Taking this opportunity, the person in front of them again started wanting Zhao Jingjing to showcase her best cooking skills to entertain everyone. Hearing the other party's expectations of her, Zhao Jingjing directly put on her chef's clothes, and went into the kitchen alone to work.
While she was preparing the food in an orderly manner, Jiang Jie couldn't sit still and walked over, and went up to continue talking with her, mentioning that they were planning to directly use abalone as the ingredient, and have a preliminary competition that only looked at cooking skills. However, this time the person in front of him knew his inner thoughts and had no intention of following them. She felt confident in facing this competition from beginning to end.
Unexpectedly, before leaving, Jiang Jie still informed her about her father intentionally losing the competition. After hearing these truths, Zhao Jingjing was completely shocked. Afterwards, she ran back without hesitation to taste her father's cooking in person, and started questioning why he had let her win. Thinking about how she and her mother were sent abroad by her father, who didn't care about them, Zhao Jingjing again became overwhelmed with grief.
After going out again, the first thing she did was call to announce her readiness to compete with Jiang Jie for the knife. After going back, Zhao Jingjing started instructing the chefs next to her about matters in the restaurant. This time, she was still preparing to take this competition seriously and planned to continue going home to prepare dishes. People standing next to her saw her unusual behavior and became confused.
But the person standing in front of them was still prepared to successfully win the competition and make everyone see her in a new light. Unexpectedly, when Jiang Jie was alone in the market preparing to buy abalone, the old master next to him also knew about his matter with Haiyang Ge, and directly expressed his intention not to sell.
When he got back into the car, Jiang Jie suddenly received a call from Li Nai on the other side, and directly told her to open the door with the password. While he was driving, he suddenly remembered something in the room and quickly turned back. After going back, Li Nai also learned about the other party using her in a scheme.
She was also prepared to let him use her again in the matter concerning Zhao Jingjing, but this time, she would demand a little interest. Afterwards, the two of them continued to discuss buying abalone. Jiang Jie again started instructing the person in front of him, telling her to successfully buy the abalone he wanted before dark. After this, Li Nai had no choice but to brace herself and buy the abalone alone.
Jiang Jie, who was in the house researching dishes, started worrying about her as soon as he heard it was raining heavily outside. He also accidentally cut his finger. Just after Li Nai successfully returned from outside, she also helped the person in front of her wrap the wound with a band-aid without hesitation. The two of them then started in front of the kitchen, seriously completing the cooking task.
Although the two of them made the abalone dish many times, they still couldn't find the taste they wanted, and immediately fell into despair again. In this situation, Li Nai directly suggested adding passion fruit to it, and immediately started doing so in a hurry. Unexpectedly, after this, Jiang Jie started collapsing from exhaustion. Li Nai again hurriedly helped him to the sofa.
When she touched the calluses on his hand, only then did she realize the hardship behind the person in front of her. The time finally came for the competition day. The chefs on both sides were fully prepared, and brought their prepared abalone dishes to the judges for tasting. After presenting these things, they all started closely watching the voting.
Episode 5 Recap
The judges hesitated for a moment, and finally cast their votes for Jiang Jie. The audience present were also very happy to stand up and applaud Jiang Jie. In this situation, Li Nai happily hugged Jiang Jie, who was stunned, feeling a bit at a loss. Zhao Jingjing was convinced of her defeat this time. She also felt a little sad inside as she handed the knife to Jiang Jie.
The apprentice couldn't understand why his master didn't tell Zhao Jingjing the truth, but the father felt there was no need to tell his daughter that the reason he didn't go abroad with them back then wasn't for Zhaoye Qing, but for them, mother and daughter. He felt his daughter definitely wouldn't understand the reason he did this, and wouldn't believe it even more.
At this moment, the apprentice felt it was because the master's wife was unwilling to accept Zhaoye Qing, which was why the master reluctantly stayed to continue taking over Zhaoye Qing. The father felt that the sacrifices he made didn't need to be known by his daughter. Unexpectedly, Zhao Jingjing came out at this moment and happened to hear her father sacrificing himself with such righteousness.
She was quite confused about what her father had been insisting on all these years. The apprentice couldn't bear to see his master misunderstood by Zhao Jingjing like this, and quickly defended him, saying that in recent years, the master had been holding photos of Jingjing and the master's wife and watching videos to learn how to cook.
After Zhao Jingjing learned everything her father had done for her, it was hard for her to let go of the years of resentment in her heart. Jiang Jie told Li Nai he was leaving. Li Nai looked at Jingjing with some worry, but Jiang Jie told Li Nai that only by passing the Alliance Head Chef competition would there be hope. She started to wonder if this meant she could also participate in making the main courses for banquets?
Jiang Jie said coldly that he wouldn't go back on his word. Li Nai quickly pulled Jiang Jie and asked if there was any work available for overtime at the restaurant tonight. Seeing how well Jiang Jie and Li Nai seemed to get along, Zheng Fangxing next to them was already used to it and wasn't surprised. Zheng Fangxing knew that Mr.
Xú Kāng had a great reputation, and the Jiang family definitely had to seize this opportunity to connect with Mr. Xú Kāng. When Mr. Xú Kāng first entered the restaurant, many people gathered around to ask for advice. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie pulled Li Nai and quietly left. Jiang Jie and Li Nai didn't care at all what happened at this gathering and wanted to slip away. Mr.
Jiang told everyone that Jiang Xiu would be the head chef of the Jiang family. At this moment, Jiang Jie was a little shocked. Li Nai heard that her father was missing and quickly went to look for her father, Li Jidong. Even Jiang Jie, who was standing next to her, drove to help Li Nai find her father. Jiang Jie also didn't know where her father had gone back to.
He suddenly thought her father might have gone back to the welfare home. Seeing her father on the tree, he was very worried. Jiang Jie climbed the tree and caught Li Jidong, successfully saving him. Li Nai was very grateful for Jiang Jie's help today and even helped blow-dry his hair. Immediately, Li Nai told Jiang Jie she wanted to take a day off and also invited Jiang Jie to the park to play.
Although Jiang Jie was being stubborn, his hand was very honest and took the ticket. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiu's second uncle was very angry that Jiang Xiu had taken the position of head chef. Jiang Xiu happened to hear this, which made her second uncle very angry. After going out, Li Nai brought Li Jidong to play. She was surprised to suddenly find that Jiang Jie had also come.
Just like that, the three of them had a great time playing at the zoo, and even the relationship between Jiang Jie and Li Nai was quietly getting closer. Jiang Jie saw how happy Li Nai looked and secretly took a few photos. Unexpectedly, Li Jidong accidentally discovered him, but Li Jidong didn't expose him afterwards. When Jiang Jie saw Li Nai's junior apprentice Cui Can arrive, his expression immediately became a little jealous.
Li Jidong's sudden urinary incontinence attracted the attention of the people around, and they all started laughing. Jiang Jie nonchalantly helped Li Nai tidy up. Jiang Jie suddenly caught a cold and was mocked by his brothers, but he was stubborn and wouldn't admit at all that he liked Li Nai. He also looked at photos of Li Nai and recalled their experiences together, suddenly realizing that he seemed to have changed a little.
Jiang Jie was preparing to go to the hospital when he happened to meet Li Nai. Li Nai took Jiang Jie to the hospital, but because she was not skilled at the procedures, Jiang Jie sarcastically said that Li Nai wanted him to end up in orthopedics. Jiang Jie watched Li Nai take care of him very seriously, even hitting his head with an egg, which made Jiang Jie think of Li Nai when she was a child.
Old Master Jiang was very angry that Jiang Xiu wasn't going to Xijiang Yue. Seeing how biased his grandfather was, Jiang Xiu's older brother Jiang Xuyang felt very uncomfortable.
Episode 6 Recap
Jiang Jie looked at Li Nai, who was seriously eating an egg, and asked if Li Nai kept mentioning Cui Can because she had no other friends. Li Nai thought about it and it seemed she really didn't have many friends. After she went to university, Li Jidong got sick, and she didn't keep in touch with any friends. At this moment, Jiang Jie asked Li Nai who her best friend was when she was five years old.
Li Nai felt that time was too early and she couldn't remember. Jiang Jie retorted angrily at Li Nai, making her leave in anger. But what Jiang Jie didn't expect was that Li Nai actually bought an umbrella for him. At this moment, he was very happy and even kept the umbrella. When Li Nai and Jiang Xiu went to buy mangoes together, Li Nai directly said that the mangoes were not fresh.
The boss thought she was causing trouble, but unexpectedly, after cutting it open, it was indeed very unfresh. Immediately, Li Nai told Jiang Xiu that when buying fruit, turn left after entering the door, the fruit at the second store is better. Jiang Xiu chased after Li Nai and asked her why she knew the mangoes were not fresh, and also asked for Li Nai's name.
Just as Li Nai was at work, she suddenly received a special customer who specifically asked for her to cook. At this moment, the manager immediately rejected Jiang Xiu's request, but Jiang Xiu still found Li Nai and wanted her to pull some strings to make a dish for herself. Li Nai had no choice but to agree. Jiang Xiu was very happy eating Li Nai's dish.
When someone next to her wanted to ask for Jiang Xiu's opinion, she suddenly fainted. Jiang Jie just happened to arrive and sent Jiang Xiu to the hospital. At this moment, Li Nai was a little flustered for a moment, having never seen such a big scene. Jiang Jie knew that Jiang Xiu did it on purpose. Jiang Xiu deliberately tested her brother, wanting to ask if Li Nai was his girlfriend.
Jiang Jie didn't answer, but instead told his sister not to continue doing such meaningless things. Jiang Xiu told Jiang Jie that she was very sad because Jiang Jie was neglecting her due to Li Nai. When Jiang Jie returned, he felt Li Nai was a bit too presumptuous and reprimanded her. After Jiang Xiu was discharged from the hospital, she found Li Nai and wanted the two of them to have a competition.
They competed in sense of smell with their eyes covered. Li Nai lost just like that. Jiang Xiu mocked her in front of Li Nai, saying her cooking skills were nothing special. Li Nai was very angry. It was acceptable that her cooking skills were not as good as Jiang Jie's, but it was a bit unreasonable if they were also worse than Jiang Xiu's.
Cui Can told Li Nai that Jiang Jie was the second youngest son of the Jiang family and had been sent to a welfare home before. His family members thought Jiang Jie's aptitude was relatively mediocre, but Li Nai felt that Jiang Jie was simply a genius. How could he be considered a person of mediocre aptitude? Afterwards, Cui Can suddenly took out a knife, mumbled something about urgent matters in the pugilistic world, and then left.
From then on, Li Nai patiently and diligently practiced her sense of smell. One day, Yuan Ji suddenly called Jiang Jie and told him they would no longer provide menus for them in the future. When Li Nai went outside to buy ham, the owners there were all strangely unwilling to sell ham. Li Nai didn't know the reason for this.
Jiang Xuyang knew that Jiang Xiu was causing trouble for Jiang Jie and advised his sister not to do so. Jiang Xiu knew that Jiang Xuyang came to find her because of their grandfather, so she left without taking it to heart at all. When everyone was preparing for the welfare home to order meals that afternoon, Li Nai didn't buy ham from Tao Ji, so she went to another place to buy it.
However, Zheng Fangxing had already discovered this scene, and their conversation was also secretly recorded. Li Nai unintentionally saw a photo of Jiang Jie when he was a child at the welfare home and realized they might have known each other when they were young.
Jiang Jie looked at the scene at the welfare home, recalling how he was almost suspected of being a thief when he was young, and it was Li Nai alone who helped him get rid of the suspicion. At that time, Jiang Jie had always had a good impression of Li Nai. When Li Nai came out and saw Jiang Jie, she felt a different feeling inside.
Seeing her colleagues leave without her, she had no choice but to get a ride with Jiang Jie. Seeing Li Nai sitting in the back, Jiang Jie sarcastically said that she was treating him like a driver. Li Nai had no choice but to sit in the front passenger seat.
What Jiang Jie didn't expect was that after the lunch was delivered to the welfare home at noon, the children got food poisoning after eating it, and it quickly made the news. Someone with malicious intent recorded this incident as a video and posted it online. Many reporters came to ask Li Nai if she had used the matter of buying ham to make money for personal gain. Li Nai had never seen such a scene before and was immediately frightened.
Episode 7 Recap
When Jiang Jie returned to the kitchen, he kept reminding the others nearby not to talk too much to other media or outsiders during this period. In this situation, he continued to care about Li Nai's condition and felt that the video mentioned earlier was deliberately fabricated by someone with malicious intent. Meanwhile, when Li Nai was walking outside alone, she was suddenly surrounded by other reporters. Facing their sharp questions, she was immediately frozen in fear.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie quickly ran to the scene, covered her face with his clothes, and directly brought her back to the car to prepare to return and solve the problem. Before leaving, Jiang Jie also promised the other media that he would successfully handle this matter. When sitting in the car, Li Nai became completely flustered.
She quickly thought of the man in front of her who was protecting her from all the harm, and she began to feel a warmth in her heart. After returning, she saw someone next to her take out that broken kitchen knife, so she directly ran to Old Li and asked if she was the successor of the Li family. Only after hearing what the other person said did she confirm her guess.
Meanwhile, Jiang Jie continued to deal with the food poisoning incident at the restaurant. After checking the report, he found that the source of everything was a problem with the food. When he saw the person next to him continue to approach him, he directly reminded the other person to leave Xijiangyue. Facing the person who wanted to say they would help him, Jiang Jie was completely indifferent.
On the other side, Li Nai played outside with the children alone for a long time. Soon, Jiang Jie directly rushed to the scene. Li Nai, standing nearby, continued to ask him about the food poisoning incident, feeling it was her own fault. However, this time, he repeatedly emphasized that it was not her problem. Li Nai began to worry and continued to call others to inquire about the situation, but found that no one answered.
Although she knew the problem was with the ham, she still kept saying that she bought it at Tao Ji. After hearing the other person's attitude, Li Nai called her good friend upon returning and prepared to leave Chunxing to open her own restaurant. This time, she was relying on the five-star knife in her hand to return to her old profession. After hearing these words, her junior fellow apprentice planned to continue working with her.
Afterwards, the two of them continued to look at storefronts outside. Unexpectedly, after looking around for a long time and hearing the expensive rental prices, Li Nai directly shook her head and left the scene on the spot. Unexpectedly, while resting, she suddenly encountered the person who had lost to Jiang Jie and directly recorded their every move on her phone.
Just when Jiang Jie went to Zhao Jingjing to buy fish, he also finally learned from her that the food poisoning incident on his side was targeted. This time, he also felt that his method of firing Li Nai was the best protection for her. After returning, Jiang Jie went to the kitchen again to meet with an old acquaintance.
In order to help Li Nai successfully clear her name, he prepared to arrange a meeting with Liu Ping and the people who did those things to resolve the issue. The person in front of him who heard this also knew that the person he cared about from beginning to end was Li Nai. When it was daytime, Li Nai and her junior fellow apprentice next to her started chasing the suspect persistently.
After seeing the person get into a taxi, she directly told the person next to her to continue following and observing their every move. After getting off the taxi, the person following behind saw the suspect enter a room but not come out, which made them even more confused. On the other side, Jiang Jie directly arranged to meet with others.
After seeing everyone arrive, he sat down at the table without hesitation and apologized to the others on the spot for his actions, but he did not regret what he had done at all. After this, Jiang Jie directly got to the point, continuing to question who had swapped the ham. After successfully tracking down the culprit, he suddenly received a phone call informing him that Li Nai was missing. Unexpectedly, at this moment, Li Nai had run directly to Chunxing by herself.
Episode 8 Recap
When seeing her friend's efforts, Li Nai began to praise him again. Unexpectedly, this time her friend also directly mentioned his mediocre qualifications. At this point, her friend continued to pull out the order form for the ham and started to feel that the timing was too coincidental. But at this moment, Li Nai still did not listen to his side of the story at all.
She began to feel that the person in front of her, who admired Jiang Jie, could not possibly tell her this matter for no reason. However, in his opinion, although he had always admired Jiang Jie, the latter never paid attention to him. At this moment, Jiang Jie continued driving alone and frantically called someone, but found that no one answered, which made him even more anxious. Unexpectedly, the friend on the other side calmly spoke about swapping things.
In his opinion, what he did was just an insignificant small matter, but the person on the other side gave him a lot of wealth. Hearing his words so dismissive of life, Li Nai's heart felt as if it was being fiercely twisted. She immediately began to condemn his actions. However, her friend remained unrepentant and prepared to set fire to the entire Chunxing kitchen, leaving her with no chance to explain anything at that time.
What people didn't expect was that Li Nai was not so easy to deal with. She quickly used surrounding objects to stop him from setting the fire. When Jiang Jie rushed over, the person immediately pulled him away without explanation. When they reached a safe place, they finally had a chance to catch their breath. Seeing the person's style of running away when they couldn't win, Jiang Jie started talking about her style again.
Unexpectedly, in Li Nai's view, everything she did was to save the person in front of her. She then subconsciously said his name and asked when he recognized her. Just when Jiang Jie went back, he was almost exhausted. When the person next to him heard that he hadn't successfully rescued the damsel in distress and also mentioned Li Nai pulling him away and running, Jiang Jie immediately interrupted the topic.
He called for Zhu Hao to come and assist with the kitchen issues. This time, he also specifically instructed Li Nai to come with the other employees, otherwise, her salary would be deducted. After Old Liu learned about what Jiang Jie had done, he immediately ran to Chairman Jiang to report him. But Chairman Jiang also knew that the current situation was not the old era anymore. He also began to admire the younger generation in the Jiang family.
Just as he was leaving, Jiang Xuyang began to remind the person in front of him again. Immediately, Jiang Xiu arrived at the scene on a motorcycle and prepared to personally escort Old Liu. Watching their backs gradually disappear, Jiang Xuyang suddenly recalled things from his childhood with Jiang Jie. He immediately made a phone call to Zhu Hao and prepared to speed up the plan to seize the knife and quickly get rid of the useless Jiang Jie.
After this, Li Nai still had the idea of going out and opening a restaurant with her junior fellow apprentice. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie started calling her to return to work and specifically mentioned the team-building event. Although Li Nai didn't want to go at all, she had no choice but to obediently listen to her boss.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiu learned from someone nearby that her brother and the others were going for team building, so she immediately went to Li Nai's junior fellow apprentice to find out the address. After getting the address, the two of them immediately rushed to wait for them. When the team-building activity officially began, Jiang Jie and Li Nai went in with the other employees and successfully met up with Jiang Xiu and her group.
The few of them sat together and started choosing roles. Jiang Jie successfully got the role of the mute and was teamed up with Li Nai. When he was preparing to go back to his room, he was suddenly stopped by his sister next to him, who wanted to play a game.
Episode 9 Recap
At this moment, Jiang Xiu started telling others about the rules of the game. After hearing these words, everyone began to follow them. The game continued, and everyone acted according to their true thoughts. Unexpectedly, Li Nai on the side suddenly brought up the idea of who everyone had a crush on, stunning everyone present. At this moment, Jiang Jie suddenly began to hesitate.
When he extended his first finger, he immediately tapped his nearby watch again, reminding them about the time. Jiang Xiu, sitting next to him, saw this and directly asked Li Nai next to her what role she was playing. But in this situation, the other party still didn't try to trick her further. When they all started playing the game, Li Nai put on an ancient costume and prepared to meet the person she was playing with.
Just as she was exchanging the secret code, she didn't expect that when the other person turned around, she would find it was Jiang Jie. Jiang Xuyang's father heard about what Jiang Jie and Jiang Xiu had done in the room and angrily cursed at the others nearby. At this moment, he continued to caution his son next to him to act carefully, otherwise, he would be jointly kicked out by the two people opposite him.
As soon as he said this, the father started to get angry again and was preparing to create a spectacle for Jiang Jie and the others who were team-building on the other side. When Li Nai and Jiang Jie met up, they also found a couple's script. After that, they continued to work through the script together.
Soon, Jiang Xiu ran directly to the scene and started making trouble, still pressing her brother in front of her about whether he liked Li Nai. At this moment, the other party continued to remind his sister not to overthink things. When it was nighttime, Jiang Jie took advantage of the absence of others to secretly take the earrings and run to find Li Nai, explaining that it was a task.
After he finished saying all of this, he directly helped her carefully put on the earrings without hesitation. Before leaving, he didn't forget to say goodnight to her, mentioning his identity. After the two of them parted ways like this, Li Nai heard her phone ring and only then remembered that her father had called her, so she directly closed the door again. Unexpectedly, the next day, the butler brought bad news, telling everyone about the master's accident.
After he had loudly called everyone out by beating gongs and drums, he directly announced that the murderer was among everyone present. Seeing this, Jiang Jie was the first to go up and check the body. Under the butler's instructions, everyone else followed him inside, preparing to state their alibis. When they sat down, Jiang Jie directly explained his movements from the previous night. He couldn't remember the exact time at all.
Hearing this, Li Nai next to him immediately vouched for him and also mentioned the matter of him giving her the earrings. After that, everyone started to find their own explanations again, and there were people among them who could prove their alibis. For a moment, everyone started guessing who the murderer was. Seeing this scene, the butler calmly told everyone that he was preparing to send them out in pairs to continue searching for clues.
After going out, Li Nai continued to form a pair with Jiang Jie next to her to search for clues outside. Seeing that he couldn't distinguish directions, she started thinking about her time in the orphanage when she was a child and vowed firmly that she would overcome the difficulties with him. The two of them assisted each other and successfully found a passage and went inside to investigate clues.
Unexpectedly, after seeing something inside, Jiang Jie discovered that the story on it was related to the Jiang family's situation. Just as they were preparing to go out and investigate the situation, they suddenly found that the exit was blocked from the outside, and even their current phones suddenly ran out of battery. They had no choice but to continue staying in this passage for the rest of the time.
Due to the surrounding environment, Li Nai collapsed to the side from exhaustion. On the other side, Jiang Xiu also discovered that her brother and the others were missing and immediately confronted her second uncle on the spot. After hearing the news about the cellar, she wanted to rush there immediately. Unexpectedly, the person over there still didn't react at all, so Jiang Jie kissed her without hesitation.
Episode 10 Recap
The next day, Li Nai woke up. She looked around and found herself lying in a hospital bed. When she got up, she saw Jiang Jie's figure on the bed next to her, and she stared at him with a smile, observing him. Seeing the person in bed about to move, Li Nai hurriedly went back to her own bed and pretended to be asleep, but her actions were quickly noticed by the person next to her.
When she heard him mention dreaming, Jiang Jie couldn't help but help the person sitting on the bed put on her shoes. Seeing this unusual behavior, Li Nai immediately went up to touch his forehead to see if he had a fever. After this, the junior apprentice brother directly took Li Nai's father to the hospital to find someone. Unexpectedly, on the way, the old man saw the pomeloes on the table and stopped.
In this situation, the junior apprentice brother had no choice but to take out his mobile phone and ask the person next to him to sell the pomeloes to him. Just as Jiang Jie was about to continue talking to the person next to him, he didn't expect that the junior apprentice brother arrived so coincidentally. When he barged in, he realized that he had come at the wrong time.
Just as he was about to sneak out alone, Li Nai angrily pounced on him to take revenge. After a while, her father also arrived at the scene, and she forgot about Jiang Jie behind her and began to reveal her true nature. After going out, Li Nai continued to walk side by side with her junior apprentice brother.
They were still preparing to go home, but Jiang Jie next to her started using the excuse of looking at fish to get a ride in their taxi. Seeing that she was still a little unwilling, he had no choice but to continue making excuses, preparing to see her next time. After Jiang Jie and Jiang Xuyang discussed the problem in the car, Zhu Hao directly sat in the car again.
After listening to his confusion, she directly revealed that she had leaked Jiang Jie's situation to Jiang Yuanfeng. Hearing that the person next to him had taken matters into her own hands, Jiang Xuyang became angry again and blamed her, also telling her not to listen to his father's words in the future. Before leaving, he didn't forget to continue comforting Zhu Hao, closely monitoring the other side's situation.
When Jiang Xiu went back to eat, she deliberately mentioned the Jiang family's affairs to her grandfather next to her. Afterwards, she swaggered to the Xijiangyue Restaurant and began to make arrangements. The deputy chef next to her directly continued to treat her like a Bodhisattva, also feeling that she couldn't stir up any trouble. After going out, Jiang Xiu continued to play outside alone. Unexpectedly, the next day at work, Li Nai's whole state was off.
After apologizing to the boss, she directly pretended to make a phone call and left in a taxi. Unexpectedly, after returning, Jiang Jie directly asked her to send him deer antler again, but this time Li Nai still asked the courier to help her deliver the things. On the other side, Jiang Xiu's whole state was very bad after leaving Xijiangyue, and all of this happened to be seen by Li Nai's junior apprentice brother, who continued to pester her.
Afterwards, the two of them happily played together and spent a wonderful night. When Jiang Xiu got up early the next morning, she came to the kitchen to cook for her brother herself. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she actively asked him about the knife-grabbing incident. This time, Jiang Jie continued to tell her seriously that what he did was not a joke, but to make her pay back everything she owed.
Unexpectedly, his sister still intended to continue being his opponent and had no intention of leaving Xijiangyue at all. Unexpectedly, when Li Nai was busy working alone in the warehouse, Jiang Jie suddenly appeared in front of her, also preparing to continue talking about what happened in the cellar at that time. At the critical moment, her father's call came. Li Nai knew about the old man's illness and hurriedly left the scene.
On the other side, Cui Can wanted to continue explaining the task to his senior apprentice sister and also wanted her to help him with some things. Afterwards, he took the helmet he had carefully selected and prepared to give it to Jiang Xiu. When he saw that she was not feeling well in the evening, he also sent her back at the first time. Ever since Jiang Jie went back, his whole state was off. He also specially took advantage of the evening to find Li Nai and asked her about what happened in the cellar that day.
Episode 11 Recap
When Jiang Jie saw the person in front of him, he asked her directly with a serious face if she was conscious in the cellar at that time. Hearing these words, Li Nai immediately began to panic. She didn't continue to ignore the question, and suddenly the scene at that time flashed in her mind, and she couldn't help swallowing. Seeing her so embarrassed, the person next to her immediately stepped in to smooth things over.
In this situation, Jiang Jie still believed that Li Nai had feelings for him under that conscious state. Unexpectedly, Li Nai directly intended to treat the kiss at that time as if she had been bitten by a dog. After saying these words, she realized that there was something wrong with what she said and immediately began to correct herself.
At this time, Jiang Jie immediately proposed to end the matter there and then, and he didn't intend to let the employee continue to avoid him in Chun Xing. Jiang Xiu was in her room, legs crossed, still staring at the chat history she had sent to Cui Can, feeling very happy. She quickly noticed that her emotions directly recovered, and she began to think of that white helmet again.
Just as Li Nai finished dealing with the matters at hand, she felt much more comfortable. Next, she began to get busy with the opening of the new store. Unexpectedly, Cui Can next to her kept trembling nervously. Then, the two of them continued to run outside to solicit customers, constantly handing out flyers outside to promote the store, but the people outside had no intention of coming in at all.
Until the evening, not a single customer came to eat. But Li Nai in front of her didn't continue to be discouraged at all, and even started to encourage the person next to her. When she went out at night, she directly ran to the boss and asked him how he faced the awkward period when he first opened the store. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie directly and unhesitatingly told her about the terrible things that happened at that time.
When he saw that she wanted him to teach her, he directly began to set conditions again. After going back, in order to learn something from the person next to her, Li Nai directly transferred money via Alipay, wanting the other party to teach her. After this, the two began to get down to business. Li Nai directly continued to cooperate with the person next to her to complete the delicacies on the table.
After listening to the other party's teachings, she realized that the person in front of her was wholeheartedly focused on the rich people in Chun Xing and began to feel that the person in front of her was a bit scheming. On the other side, when Cui Can successfully met the person he liked, he began to worry about whether her injury had recovered. Seeing that she was safe and sound, he continued to ask about the helmet he bought.
Jiang Xiu, standing next to him, was also preparing to take this opportunity to take him out to play. Unexpectedly, just as Cui Can sat down, he suddenly remembered the task his senior apprentice sister had given him. He directly stood up abruptly from the seat and was preparing to make an appointment with her again in the following time.
Subsequently, Jiang Xiu, who was preparing to go to the bar to play today, specially drove to the store to eat. On the other side, Li Nai continued to stay with her boss, and they also set up a tent, preparing to start eating. Seeing that there were no ingredients, they began to prepare to fish together. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie took the opportunity to leave and directly took the ingredients from the car.
In the evening, he also sat down and seriously grilled food for her to eat. Li Nai, sitting on the side, directly discovered that her tent had fallen in the rain and began to complain incessantly. Jiang Jie next to her was still unhurriedly giving her ideas, preparing to spend a night in the car. Unexpectedly, after going over, Li Nai realized that his car had no gas at all, and she began to return disappointed.
Seeing that the person next to her was cold, Jiang Jie unhesitatingly helped her put on a towel. Finally, the two of them were preparing to spend the night in a tent. After they both lay down, they began to be cautious, afraid of touching each other. Li Nai, sleeping on one side, quietly waited for the time to reach midnight and directly rolled over to call the person next to her.
Episode 12 Recap
When it was early morning, Li Nai happily turned over and said Happy New Year to the person in front of her. After that, she turned back alone and pretended to sleep, and also put down her phone. The two of them quietly stayed in the tent and fell asleep. On the other side, Cui Can played with Jiang Xiu next to him until midnight.
He quickly collapsed on the ground due to lack of energy and began urging the person in front of him to quickly go home to sleep. But Jiang Xiu had no intention of going home at all. She directly pulled the person next to her into her arms and asked if he liked her. After getting an affirmative answer, she didn't hesitate and kissed him with the help of the alcohol in her system.
Just after daytime, Jiang Jie and Li Nai came out of the tent one after another. They packed their things and were ready to continue heading home. In this situation, Jiang Jie pulled out the flowers next to him without a word and gave them to her. After going back, Li Nai continued to stay in her restaurant, preparing to attract customers. She quickly welcomed the first customer who wanted Western food.
Seeing that other places were already closed, Li Nai kindly offered to treat the mother and daughter in front of her to fusion Western food. After stepping into the kitchen, she began to cook seriously. After tasting the food, the two people immediately praised her greatly. Seeing this warm scene, Li Nai also felt warm inside. After successfully meeting Jiang Jie, she also planned to go and taste the newly arrived ingredients with him.
After the two of them happily finished eating, Li Nai specifically left the last large crab for the person next to her. Seeing her action, Jiang Jie was stunned. After recovering, he also took a bite actively and carefully wiped the corner of her mouth for her. Unexpectedly, in front of this ambiguous atmosphere, the surroundings were suddenly broken by Li Nai's hiccups.
While she went to the room to get wine, she suddenly discovered a photo posted on the wall and suddenly remembered the matter of her master's knife being taken, feeling even more upset. After seeing the person in front of him sad, Jiang Jie began without hesitation, pulling her, preparing to take her to a place to see.
After arriving at the place from his childhood, Jiang Jie spoke without hesitation about being kicked out of the house back then, which is why he took the knife from those people afterwards. But Li Nai still didn't understand what he did to her master and was preparing to continue challenging him. After this, Li Nai also took leave from her boss and continued to work busy in the store.
After waiting for a call from the other party, she continued to hang up the phone using the excuse of seeing a doctor for her father. She then started discussing the matter of her small store opening for business with Zhao Jingjing next to her, wanting the other party to provide her with some low-cost ingredients. Upon hearing these words, the person in front of her began to offer suggestions again and also prepared to let her meet someone.
Just after the person came over, Li Nai also learned that the other party was Jiang Xuyang and suddenly thought of the relationship between him and Jiang Xiu. After tasting the delicious food, the person in front of her also planned to let Li Nai personally go to his Xijiangyue to inspect the ingredients.
Unexpectedly, when she got out of the car, she suddenly noticed the familiar Jiang Jie next to her and started trying to avoid him in a hurry. Unexpectedly, she accidentally twisted her ankle. At this time, Jiang Jie, who noticed Li Nai, walked over to massage her foot regardless of anything else, and carried her back without question.
The next day, before going to the company, Jiang Jie specifically bought her breakfast at the entrance and was preparing to pick her up. After finishing his work in the kitchen, Jiang Jie also didn't forget to continue waiting for Li Nai next to him. Even the people next to them saw this situation and thought they were dating. Unexpectedly, after this, Li Nai secretly ran off to Jiang Xuyang's place alone again to continue purchasing ingredients. This time, when she met Jiang Xiu again, she was not afraid of her going to complain at all, and even asked the person next to her not to tell Jiang Jie on the other side.
Episode 13 Recap
Although Li Nai's new store opened and won many first places after a few months, she was still not in the mood to celebrate these happy things at this moment. She was still worried about her boss finding out about the store opening, and her whole mood was very bad. The people next to her saw her worried expression and also understood her feelings very well.
Just after successfully getting out, Cui Can was still preparing to find someone to help his store hide its operational information. After hearing the sister in front of him agree to help, he was very happy inside. At this moment, he suddenly received a phone call and found out about Jiang Xiu on the other side, so he immediately ran to find her.
Unexpectedly, after going over, Jiang Xiu started actively seducing him again and continued to inquire about the whole matter of him and Li Nai opening a store. But Cui Can was still not planning to betray his junior sister. He didn't reveal anything to the outside. Seeing his attitude, Cui Can got angry again and sent her away. When it was time to get off work the next day, Li Nai was still holding her things, ready to leave.
Unexpectedly, her boss, who was following behind, quickly pulled her back, preparing to invite her to his home. As soon as she heard what he said, Li Nai started making excuses again, even lying that she had something to do over there and needed to go. But her boss still didn't care about the time issues and planned to let her come after she finished her work. After Li Nai heard these words, she nodded again and turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Hao called her into her car and told her about her master being sick and hospitalized. Upon hearing these words, Li Nai immediately began to worry about her master's condition. She immediately made a phone call and personally rushed to the hospital. Just after the two disciples successfully visited their master, they personally invited the old man to the store to taste their skills. At this time, Li Nai eagerly brought out her proud dishes.
Although her master kept praising his disciple's skills after tasting them, he started coughing non-stop because his old illness flared up. Seeing her master's terrible condition, Li Nai couldn't help but continue to shed tears. She also sat alone quietly on the steps, letting the snowflakes fall on her shoulders. At this time, Jiang Jie directly rushed to the scene, held up an umbrella for her, and prepared to pull her into the house.
But Li Nai had no intention of leaving at all. She continued to talk to him about the past events between her and her master. It was precisely because of a bowl of black fish noodles that her master made that she was willing to become his disciple. Thinking of these things, she began to feel that the boss in front of her owed her master too much, so she refused him without hesitation and left.
After going back, Jiang Jie suddenly received a challenge letter from the Li family. The people next to him saw this situation and even started doubting whether he would fall into Li Nai's hands in the future. But this time, Jiang Jie knew that Li Nai had refused him and was prepared to face the upcoming problems seriously.
Just as Li Nai returned to the small store and continued discussing the matter of retrieving the knife with Cui Can next to her, unexpectedly, when he came out, Cui Can suddenly saw Zhu Hao and Jiang Xuyang together and began to suspect the relationship between the two of them. Jiang Xuyang got out of the car alone and specifically waited by the roadside for the arrival of CEO Cui.
After seeing him arrive, he immediately made his request for the other party to help him. Afterwards, the two of them continued to the store, preparing to eat. Unexpectedly, everything was just seen by Cui Can and Jiang Xiu. After realizing they had been exposed, the two people standing next to each other quickly revealed their true identities. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xiu directly started telling her brother that she and the person next to her were just ordinary friends.
After hearing these words, Cui Can could only leave sadly alone. After returning, he started sighing again by himself but suddenly found people of unknown origin delivering ingredients to his home and began to suspect it was Jiang Jie.
Episode 14 Recap
After Jiang Xuyang successfully met his grandfather, he also took the initiative to talk about providing ingredients to the Li family, but regarding Jiang Jie's situation, he stated on the spot that he knew nothing. The old man sitting next to him also learned about his grandson's situation. This time, he did not plan to continue explaining anything; he was also prepared to meet that grandson of his after the other party had won the knife.
As soon as he heard that his grandfather wanted to see the person on the other side, Jiang Xuyang, standing in front of him, felt a thump in his heart. He also continued to ask his grandfather if he wanted to bring the person on the other side back home again. At this moment, he was also planning to stop the ingredients on the other side, but the old Master Jiang in front of him directly refused.
He was also preparing to watch this wonderful show personally. On the other side, Li Nai continued to work with Cui Can in the small store they opened. This time, they were seriously preparing for the knife competition, constantly guarding against every move Jiang Jie made. Looking at the ingredients in front of them, they even suspected that the other party had sent them.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xuyang on the other side quickly called directly and said that their store had delivered the ingredients to the wrong place. After this, Li Nai started working seriously again. After she finished working at her small store, she went to work at Jiang Jie's company. She started staring blankly in the kitchen, completely lost in thought. The head chef standing next to her saw her state and started reminding her again.
Unexpectedly, when she went out and returned to the store, Li Nai was standing next to her junior fellow disciple talking when she happened to see her boss outside the window. She was so scared that she immediately lay on the ground observing the other party's every move. She also continued to discuss with the person next to her, preparing to stall the other party herself.
After going out, Li Nai continued to pretend that nothing had happened and chatted with the other party. When they all sat down to prepare to eat, she secretly slipped into the kitchen again to instruct Cui Can inside to continue cooking as the head chef today. Unexpectedly, the person inside the room was not capable of cooking at all; he made the whole kitchen smoky and messy, and even the dishes served out were hard to swallow.
Li Nai still continued to sit at the table with the person next to her, frowning as she ate the food. She finally couldn't help but spit out the food in her mouth, and continued to listen carefully to the person next to her, afraid that the other party would expose her. Under this situation, Jiang Jie, sitting next to her, still did not plan to continue paying attention to the chef inside.
Just as he was preparing to leave with the person next to him, unexpectedly, his sister suddenly came over and directly blocked them back inside. As soon as he saw that Jiang Xiu had come, Cui Can, hiding in the kitchen, felt even more anxious. Seeing the people outside preparing to break in, they came up with a quick idea while hiding in the kitchen and cut off the power supply, thus escaping a disaster.
After successfully resolving the crisis, Jiang Xiu was still preparing to continue playing with Cui Can, but under this situation, he still reminded her not to continue messing around. At this moment, the enraged Jiang Xiu began to kiss the other party without hesitation, also wanting the person she liked to accompany her for the rest of her life. Li Nai was sitting in the car with her boss on the other side, her heart constantly feeling uneasy.
At this moment, she still proactively distanced herself from the other party and left without hesitation. After the two of them returned again, they continued inside the house to start preparing for cooking. After Jiang Xuyang returned, he immediately called CEO Cui to his front and wanted the other party to help him behind the scenes in the competition to prevent Jiang Jie from dominating exclusively.
When Li Nai took advantage of her free time, she also made food and went to the hospital to visit her master. As soon as her master saw his disciple's troubled look, he began to persuade her again not to compete with Jiang Jie for the knife. In the eyes of the old man in front of her, both young people shared a common problem: they fundamentally disliked cooking, which is why they didn't make anything delicious. Unexpectedly, after she left, Jiang Xiu suddenly rushed to the hospital alone.
Episode 15 Recap
Cui Can, upon successfully meeting Jiang Jie in person, also learned that he was the elder brother of the person he liked, which made his heart even more uneasy. Jiang Jie next to him immediately began to calmly inquire about the situation between him and his sister. But after listening to what the other party said, Cui Can didn't care if Jiang Jie truly liked him. Now he also knew the other party only did this because he was lonely.
In his heart, the first place was always given to the brother in front of him. On the other side, Jiang Xiu successfully met Master Xue and apologized to the person in front of her filled with guilt. But the old man lying on the bed still kept reminding her not to look so gloomy.
As soon as he heard the other party say she wanted to help him get the knife back, the old man started to feel that the young person was being a bit childish. For him, whether the knife was returned to him or not didn't matter.
He also advised her not to continue telling the secret between the two of them to his disciple Li Nai, preparing to let her let go of the obsession in her heart for many years and do what she wanted to do. Under this situation, Cui Can also thanked him for giving him a chance. Without waiting for him to continue speaking, he proactively stated that he was preparing to take good care of Jiang Xiu.
As soon as he said this, he was still preparing to continue answering his own inner doubts, however, at this moment, Jiang Jie directly and without hesitation expressed his liking for Li Nai. Under this situation, Li Nai directly appeared and also took her junior fellow disciple away on the spot. While going downstairs, Cui Can standing next to her accidentally revealed something about Jiang Jie's birthday.
She standing next to her suddenly thought of what he had said to her at that time. She quickly went down the elevator in a hurry to continue cooking for her family, and also took the prepared radish soup to deliver it. Jiang Jie, who was drinking alone in the room, saw the thermos cup on the ground. He suddenly remembered that the person on the other side soon came into the elevator and collapsed onto him.
After that, the two of them came back into the room together again. Li Nai also apologized to him for her actions. She saw him looking dishevelled and covered in sweat, and immediately stayed to take care of him again. She also poured out the contents from the lunchbox. Jiang Jie sat down and ate the radish soup, and also wanted her to stay with him.
After that, the two of them continued to discuss the matter of winning the knife. Li Nai sitting opposite him still felt that she was not his opponent at all. Before leaving, she didn't say anything nice to comfort him, she just quickly apologized and left. Unexpectedly, after she went out again, Li Nai suddenly received a call from Cui Can.
Only then did she learn the bad news that her master was critically ill, and she immediately rushed to the hospital to check on the situation. Unexpectedly, when she came out of the critical care room again, the doctor directly said that he wanted the family member in front of him to be mentally prepared.
After hearing these words, Li Nai's heart was wrenched with pain, and she directly took the photo that her master had always looked at, preparing to continue completing the matter of winning the knife. After this, Li Nai also personally went to the competition venue representing the head chef of 'Eat Twilight'. She was then going to continue methodically preparing the beef dishes.
Jiang Jie standing next to her saw the familiar person in front of him, who was constantly distracted while participating in the competition. The other people around saw the process of the competition and were all very much looking forward to the wonderful performance of the two of them. Just after they conscientiously finished preparing the beef dishes in front of them, Li Nai's heart was in her throat. This time, all she prepared was a simple radish beef soup.
Finally, it was time for the judging segment. After everyone initially tasted Jiang Jie's food, they started drinking Li Nai's radish soup. They also continuously praised the two of them. Finally, it was time for the voting segment again. The judges sitting in the front directly cast their votes for the satisfactory chef.
Episode 16 Recap
Other judges, after tasting the food, also directly chose the answer they wanted in their hearts. Cui Can's sister sitting next to them was about to vote. She suddenly remembered what Jiang Xuyang had said to her at that time, and her heart began to hesitate. This time, she was still determined to see the beautiful scenery on the rooftop, and without hesitation, she cast her vote for Li Nai.
Sitting opposite them, everyone jumped up from their chairs upon seeing this result. In this situation, the judge directly announced to the others that the championship went to Li Nai. Jiang Jie, standing next to them, did not say anything after seeing this result. He still picked up the extremely precious knife in his hand without hesitation and personally delivered it to the other party.
Seeing the person in front of him looking at him expressionlessly, Li Nai, although she won the competition this time, did not look happy. --- Just after going out, Li Nai was still sad and squatted on the ground with Cui Can next to her because of her master's departure.
After reorganizing her emotions, she stood up from the ground without hesitation and suddenly remembered what her master had said at that time, preparing to carefully think about and continue with a question she owed the other party at that time. --- On the other side, Jiang Jie, who lost the competition, had no intention of opening his shop at all. He returned home alone dejectedly.
The moment he thought of the bits and pieces of time spent with the person standing in front of him at that time, he started to lose himself in thought again. Unexpectedly, his good friend quickly came directly to the scene and immediately refused the bank card offered by the person in front of him.
He also directly revealed the things Li Nai had done, being one way in person and another way behind her back, saying that even the final result of the judges was unfair. However, at this moment, the person in front of him had no mind to continue speculating about others. This time, his good friend was still preparing to get Jiang Jie to take the competition seriously, disclose all the details to the media, and have another competition.
--- At the same time, when Li Nai went out, the other reporters around her swarmed over, asking if there were any inside stories about winning the championship in the competition. Seeing this situation, she still directly got into a car and left the scene to avoid the reporters. Unexpectedly, even Cui Can was surrounded by reporters.
After he successfully got away, he immediately ran to find his older sister and unexpectedly overheard her talking on the phone with someone on the other side. He then angrily questioned his sister about why she had faked things during the competition. --- Unexpectedly, at this moment, the older sister in front of him still did not treat her younger brother as a child.
Without hesitation, she admitted the current situation of their family and asked him not to reveal the truth about this matter to the outside world. --- After going out, Li Nai discovered that the shop she opened had been vandalized. A person wearing a mask appeared behind her, preparing to attack.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie, who was hiding in the dark, quickly appeared to protect the person in front of him and left the scene without hesitation to go to the hospital for a check-up. Li Nai, sitting in the hospital corridor, soon saw Zheng Fangxing walking over. After hearing what the other person said, she realized that she had misunderstood Jiang Jie all along. Her heart was filled with guilt.
Just as she ran to the other person to apologize, she didn't expect the person standing in front of her was preparing to clear things up. --- After going back and seeing the fish on the ground, Li Nai completely started to break down again. After that, she continued to go to the restaurant alone to busy herself with work, leaving early and returning late.
When she saw her father raising fish, she immediately prepared to run to find Jiang Jie again. However, after Li Nai went there alone, she couldn't open the door at all. --- On the other side, Jiang Jie was drinking alone on the street, completely drunk, and accidentally provoked some street hooligans. Just after he successfully avoided them, he fell asleep groggily in a car and was directly taken away by the driver.
--- When it was daytime, Jiang Jie woke up from unconsciousness and saw an uncle next to him. As soon as he heard about the help the other party provided, he was about to take out money but found that his phone was gone. Unexpectedly, the uncle later turned hostile and was preparing to drag him to a blind date.
Episode 17 Recap
When Jiang Jie ran back to the kitchen alone, he also saw the uncle next to him cooking casually. This time, as a chef, he couldn't help but step forward and comment on the other person's actions. Unexpectedly, the person in front of him didn't care at all and continued to cook for everyone, even thinking it was good to have something to eat.
Unexpectedly, just as he turned around, he accidentally missed his step and fell to the ground, injuring his arm. After going out, the others started discussing because the person who was cooking was gone. The old uncle standing nearby thought the young man who came here didn't know how to cook at all and continued to direct the other party to assist him. Afterwards, Jiang Jie immediately ran to the courier station and successfully retrieved his mobile phone.
--- Two months later, Li Nai's shop business got better and better. She was busy attending to customers alone, with a smiling face. Everyone was eating lively and happily at this time. When it was time to get off work, Zhao Jingjing directly pulled the person next to her and started reminding her about the interview.
Thinking back to when she sat down, those cunning reporters suddenly changed their outline and directly asked Li Nai about things that had happened before, making it difficult for the person opposite her to answer for a moment. After knowing that Jiang Jie had disappeared for a full two months, Li Nai felt very bad. She even specially ran to find Jiang Xiu after work to see if her brother was in the house.
After confirming that he was not inside, she was about to leave. Unexpectedly, the person in the room impolitely pulled her back inside by the collar, ready to drink together. The two girls then drank until they were drunk. Li Nai also started desperately trying to stay sober, continuing to press the person next to her for clues. After not getting an answer, she directly settled the drunk Jiang Xiu and quietly left alone.
On the other side, Jiang Jie had been working for the uncle for two months alone. As soon as he heard the other party mention the matter of owing money again, he didn't hesitate to take out hundred-yuan bills on the spot and gave the other party a lot more money. Unexpectedly, the uncle in front of him suddenly recognized his identity, and the two began to lay their cards on the table.
After knowing that Jiang Jie needed a cleaver, he still continued to give the other party problems. At this moment, Li Nai on the other side continued to deal with Zhao Jingjing next to her regarding the issue of rising ingredient prices. This time, she didn't listen attentively as usual. She had been in a daze because of Jiang Jie's matter and also planned to personally go to the market to check the situation.
Unexpectedly, after the two searched for a long time, they still found that the prices were very high. Afterwards, the two wandered back and forth on the street and complained. Unexpectedly, Li Nai unintentionally discovered that the person driving the small truck was Jiang Jie. She immediately started talking to the person next to her, but Zhao Jingjing did not believe any of this after hearing it.
Li Nai, who went back to investigate Jiang Jie, also learned that the other party had previously planned to go find Ge Qunshan. She was happy and prepared to go there with her father the next day. Unexpectedly, while looking for someone, Li Nai accidentally lost her father. When she rushed over, she just happened to see Jiang Jie there. She immediately pulled the other person and told him about her situation.
Unexpectedly, since the incident of taking the knife, Jiang Jie had become somewhat cold and was completely unwilling to pay attention to the person in front of him. Immediately, Ge Qunshan, who was outside, enthusiastically welcomed Li Nai's arrival after seeing her come over. He started pulling the people next to him to sit down and eat together.
When they sat down, Jiang Jie still had a sullen face as always and was completely unwilling to pay attention to Li Nai. As soon as he heard Ge Qunshan preparing to have him lead the way for research in the village, he angrily prepared to go settle scores with someone. For the sake of face, he finally had to go to the fields with the other party to pick food. On the way back, Li Nai kept bouncing and talking to the other party about his sister.
Episode 18 Recap
Li Nai discovered Li Jidong was missing and was searching for him in the village, calling his name, when Li Jidong's voice suddenly came over the radio. Seeing that Li Jidong couldn't specify his exact location, Jiang Jie took the microphone and said that Li Jidong was in the village mess hall. When Li Nai arrived, Jiang Jie initially thought she was deliberately using Li Jidong as a pretense to come and see him in his downcast state.
It wasn't until Ge Qunshan came over and explained that he realized Li Nai had indeed come to purchase ingredients. Jiang Jie's chess skills improved rapidly. After a period of challenging others, few people in the village were still his match, so he challenged Ge Qunshan. Ge Qunshan played chess with Jiang Jie while cooking and easily won against him.
To prevent Jiang Jie from being disheartened, he also explained to him the chess principles that a lone cannon is difficult to form a force and a lone horse cannot cross the river. Li Nai tasted the dishes made by Ge Qunshan and complimented them somewhat flatteringly, saying Jiang Jie's cooking skills had improved again. Seeing Jiang Jie's face still dark, she then realized the dishes were made by Ge Qunshan.
Ge Qunshan saw Li Nai's affection for Jiang Jie, so he asked Jiang Jie to take her to pick vegetables. On the way back after picking vegetables, Li Nai, trying to please Jiang Jie, deliberately took out the photo of the fish. However, after looking at the photo, Jiang Jie criticized her for not turning on the light and forgetting that this type of fish requires light. While Jiang Jie was talking, a handcart came from the opposite direction.
Because his mind was wandering, Jiang Jie accidentally bumped into the handcart and sprained his foot. The person with the handcart offered Jiang Jie a ride, pushing him back in the cart. Seeing the villagers constantly greeting him, Jiang Jie felt somewhat embarrassed. Li Nai handed him her bag, asking him to cover his face.
After returning to the village mess hall, because Jiang Jie didn't want to see Li Nai, Li Nai also asked Ge Qunshan to give him an egg. Jiang Jie held the egg in his hand and remembered what Li Nai had said, so he tapped his head with the egg. The next day, Li Nai arrived at the mess hall early. While Jiang Jie played chess, she sat beside him.
Jiang Jie finally managed to shake her off and went to chop firewood for an aunt in the village. However, through a message from Ge Qunshan, Li Nai already knew Jiang Jie's route. When Jiang Jie arrived at the aunt's house, Li Nai was already waiting for him there. Jiang Jie guessed that Ge Qunshan had leaked his whereabouts, so he asked Li Nai to chop firewood and quietly slipped away while she was doing it.
Master Ge was chatting with Li Jidong. Seeing Li Nai return dejected, he knew she had lost track of Jiang Jie again. After Li Nai very sensibly transferred 200 yuan to him, he revealed to her that Jiang Jie's next move would be to go up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots. In the evening, Jiang Jie returned to the village mess hall.
Ge Qunshan saw that Li Nai was not with him and told him that Li Nai had gone up the mountain to look for him. Since there were many large pits on the mountain, Jiang Jie was worried that something would happen to Li Nai, so he hurried to look for her. He found that Li Nai had indeed fallen into a large pit.
He called Ge Qunshan for help and then climbed down into the pit to accompany Li Nai. Li Nai was initially very happy to see Jiang Jie so concerned about her. What she didn't expect was that Jiang Jie told her in the pit that they were never on the same side and asked her not to disturb him again because he didn't want to see her anymore. After being rescued from the large pit, Li Nai left.
Ge Qunshan took the initiative to play chess with Jiang Jie. After Jiang Jie won, he asked him to fulfill his promise. However, Ge Qunshan shamelessly said that if he didn't fulfill his promise, there was nothing Jiang Jie could do to him. Jiang Jie was so angry that he wanted to flip the chessboard but then understood Ge Qunshan's good intentions.
The rule was the Chef's Alliance, and only by eliminating the Chef's Alliance could Jiang family be completely defeated. Otherwise, just like Ge Qunshan, even if he won the competition, he could only hide in a small mountain village and barely survive. Defeating the Chef's Alliance had always been Ge Qunshan's wish. When Jiang Jie started trying to reclaim the knives, Ge Qunshan initially thought the Jiang family had sent him to eliminate dissent.
Later, realizing the situation was not like that, he took the initiative to approach him. The purpose of Ge Qunshan teaching Jiang Jie chess was to train his psychological resilience. Seeing that the time was ripe, Ge Qunshan gave him the knife in his hand and passed on the essence of Ge family's cooking skills to him. Jiang Jie accepted the knife, knelt down, kowtowed to Ge Qunshan, and respectfully called him Master.
Episode 19 Recap
At this time, Li Nai had no idea what the five-star review was going to check. She continued to be confused with Zhao Jingjing next to her and also recalled taking the other party's knife. Sitting opposite her, she thought back to when the shop opened, there was no movement, and even when she took the knife, they didn't show up.
It was only at this moment that the matter of a five-star review suddenly popped up, making her feel that there must be something strange about it. Unexpectedly, while the two were talking, Jiang Xiu burst in alone and asked about her brother's whereabouts. The person sitting nearby heard that Jiang Jie had returned and immediately ran to find him.
After opening the door, Jiang Jie saw it was someone he didn't want to see and was about to close the door again. The person outside quickly stopped him and suggested entering the room to discuss an important matter. After sitting down, Li Nai did not directly state why she came, but prepared to drink some water to calm herself down. She then told the other party that she wanted him to join her restaurant.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie, sitting opposite her, directly said that many people had come to his home with the same request, wanting to hire him as a cook, but he had not agreed. Upon hearing that the other party was going to be a cook elsewhere, Li Nai did not hesitate to pull him, wanting him to join her side.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie also knew that the person in front of him had not passed the five-star review and suggested they consider other cooperation matters after they passed. On the other side, Jiang Xuyang was discussing the five-star review with the Cui family's eldest sister. This time, they knew that Li Nai, who opened the restaurant, would definitely not join their circle, and continued to have a headache.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Hao next to them suddenly walked over and offered an idea, suggesting they replace the seven major families to achieve what they wanted. This time, they also planned to target Li Nai's shop and prevent them from passing the five-star review, so that Jiang Jie would never have a chance to recover. When Cui Can went to pick up his sister in the evening, he saw that she was drunk and immediately prepared to take her back.
Jiang Xuyang, standing nearby, saw the young man continue and, intentionally or unintentionally, brought up the matter of his junior sister. He still wanted to personally sit down and watch this good show. After returning, Cui Can unintentionally discovered a document his sister had dropped on the ground and suddenly realized something was seriously wrong. While preparing for the review work, Li Nai outwardly appeared calm, but inwardly she was very nervous.
Seeing her junior brother come over, she took the initiative to talk to him. Unexpectedly, Cui Can's attitude gradually became somewhat cold this time. Zhao Jingjing, sitting nearby, quickly knew that he was the reviewer for this review. After the review, Li Nai walked out of her shop alone, preparing to go home.
She suddenly found someone following her and did not hesitate to give the person a shoulder throw, immediately discovering the person lying on the ground was her junior brother. This time, Cui Can was unsure whether she would pass the five-star review, but he still told the person next to him about the internal news. After this, Li Nai continued to run to find Jiang Jie and actively stuck close to him, following him for a long time.
After returning home, she learned from her father that he had relentlessly pursued her mother back then. She immediately understood many things and planned to use this strategy to pursue Jiang Jie. After going out again, Jiang Jie was preparing to continue with his business, but unexpectedly, Li Nai behind him began to pursue him relentlessly again. Upon hearing that the other party didn't eat soup dumplings, Li Nai prepared to take a ride in his car.
When she saw the other party approach, Jiang Jie found an excuse and drove away alone to find the Cao family. Unexpectedly, Jiang Lianfeng suddenly ran over at this time to cause trouble and spoke rudely to Jiang Jie. Seeing the person sitting next to him pick up a wine glass and prepare to make a move, Li Nai directly shielded Jiang Jie from everything.
After returning, Li Nai continued to measure the size of the chef's uniform for the person in front of her. At this time, she had an 80% chance of facing the five-star review and directly expressed her stance to the person next to her. Unexpectedly, in the evening, people from the Jiang family suddenly began to prepare to make a move against Li Nai.
Episode 20 Recap
Li Nai was startled when she saw a car rushing towards her. After she saw the other party leave, her heart finally settled. Jiang Jie, on the other side, knowing that the person he liked was in danger, was very worried. He even specifically ran to the shop to check the situation and learned that the other party had left with his sister. After leaving, Li Nai followed Jiang Xiu next to her to see her grandfather.
When she sat down, she immediately said that she had some things she wanted the elder in front of her to help with. As soon as he heard the other party mention the review, the old man continued to pretend, saying that if they worked hard, there would always be results. But this time, Li Nai was not foolish. She knew that even with her 100% effort, someone was secretly interfering, preventing her from passing the five-star review.
So, she didn't hesitate to take out the video she had filmed and showed it to the person in front of her. After watching these things, the old man's heart also began to hesitate. After going out again, the Vice President of the Jiang family remained unrepentant, feeling that he was not wrong in retaliating against others behind their backs.
Soon, a car suddenly appeared in front of him and stopped immediately, forcibly pushing him into the car and directly starting to return all the things the other party had done to his father back then. After this, Li Nai continued to discuss ideas with the old man without changing her expression. Inadvertently, she also revealed that people within the Jiang family were opening chain stores.
Hearing about these things his son was doing behind his back, the old man began to feel a sense of crisis and was ready to continue helping the person in front of him. After the task was completed, Li Nai happily opened the shop with her friends and even prepared to offer free samples to the first table of guests.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie, who was standing in the distance, heard about this situation and came over without hesitation, ready to be the first employee. As soon as she heard him voluntarily agree to stay, Li Nai quickly agreed readily. After seeing the person leave, the old man angrily called his grandson in front of him and made him kneel as punishment. He also started blaming the other party for opening chain stores.
Thinking that the person in front of him was bold enough to plan to act against the seven major families, he was furious and prepared to interfere to stop this matter. After Jiang Xuyang went out, he also discussed it with Zhu Hao next to him. This time, he was not going to let the people on the other side off easily.
Just that evening, Li Nai happily pulled the others in the shop and made a few dishes to eat together. Seeing that the person next to her was restless and not using chopsticks, she didn't hesitate to pull Jiang Jie, preparing to go out to eat something delicious. After buying things, they also sat down and talked together. This time, Li Nai directly stated her inner thoughts and immediately expressed that she didn't want to seize the knife at all.
Saying this, she was also preparing to work together, asking the person in front of her to help her achieve first place for the year and strive to abolish seizing the knife at the alliance meeting. The person next to her, after hearing these words, also planned to work together with her side by side to properly manage the matters of Bai Chuan Catering. Unexpectedly, Jiang Jie's whereabouts after starting work the next day were suddenly exposed.
Other people rushed to the shop to find him and even made service requests on the spot. Seeing this scene, Li Nai felt completely jealous. Unexpectedly, after a while, the male customer who liked her cooking suddenly came over again. Jiang Jie, seeing this, also started to feel unhappy. The two of them later subtly pointed out each other's shortcomings in the kitchen. The next day, Cui Can went with his sister to meet the old Mr. Jiang.
When they sat down, in order to protect Jiang Xiu, he actively distanced himself from the other party and also brought up the fact that the two of them used to be in a relationship and that it was now impossible to get back together. The person next to them, hearing these words, left angrily. Unexpectedly, during the time after work, Li Nai learned that Jiang Jie had female fans waiting for him. She then continued to provoke him.
Driven to desperation, Jiang Jie at this moment proactively confessed his feelings to her, and the two of them also agreed to meet the next day. As soon as he heard these words, Jiang Jie's heart kept thinking about what his girlfriend had said to him. Still unable to forget, he ran directly to her home and kissed her.
Episode 21 Recap
When he woke up the next day, Jiang Jie looked at the person sleeping next to him and happily pinched her cheek. Unexpectedly, after a while, Li Jidong directly rushed into the room and started shouting for his daughter to go to school. Seeing that her father's Alzheimer's had acted up again, Li Nai anxiously and hurriedly pretended to agree and was also preparing to have the person next to her make breakfast for her to eat.
Unexpectedly, her father still didn't hesitate to go into the room to fold the quilt. Seeing this, she was terrified. Fortunately, she discovered that her boyfriend had secretly hidden in the closet from the bed, and only then did she sigh with relief. Soon after, Li Nai distracted her father alone and secretly let her boyfriend leave the house, also bringing his jacket out.
While Jiang Xiu continued eating at a table with her grandfather and the others, she heard her grandfather speaking ill of her older brother and angrily began to retort. Taking this opportunity, Jiang Xuyang was also preparing to ask his grandfather to bring his father back from the hospital.
But the grandfather was already very disappointed in his son and had no intention of letting him come back to mess with the family property, insisting he should continue to rest well in the hospital. Speaking of this, he also brought up how close his grandson in front of him was with Zhu Hao, but Jiang Xuyang in front of him still explained that the two of them were just in a normal relationship.
On the other side, Li Nai and her boyfriend arrived at the shop early and started preparing delicious food for him. Unexpectedly, after he came over, Li Nai, afraid that everyone would discover their relationship, continued to rush into the shop and officially start busy with work. Jiang Jie became angry seeing her trying to hide. After making up, the two of them happily ate cake together outside.
Unexpectedly, they were just seen by Zhao Jingjing, who was about to ask for leave. She anxiously and hurriedly found an excuse to leave the scene. Afterwards, the two of them started discussing plans to find time to spend together when no one else was around. On the other side, Cui Can was soon called to the scene by Old Mr. Jiang. After having tea together, the other party still wanted to ask for his help.
Hearing this, Cui Can didn't hesitate to tell the other party to start speaking. At this time, the old man in front of him was also preparing to schedule his birthday banquet and the alliance competition on the same day for a double celebration.
After hearing this, Cui Can was preparing to convey the information to the people above, but unexpectedly, he happened to meet Jiang Xiu in the courtyard walking very closely with someone from the Cao family, and he started to feel sad. After successfully seeing off the guests, Jiang Xuyang was still preparing to continue being busy with work matters. Seeing Zhu Hao coming over, he still wanted to send her away first.
As soon as Zhu Hao heard that he was going to interact with other girls again, she felt even more uncomfortable. At this moment, Jiang Xuyang still let her leave first. After he walked into the house and opened his phone, he discovered Zhu Hao's consumption records and figured out some things. When Cui Can returned to Li Nai's home alone, he started complaining about the person he liked not liking him.
Seeing her junior next to her making that expression again, she was also preparing to give him advice on how to get Jiang Xiu to forgive him. After returning, Li Nai also flew kites with her boyfriend and the children nearby. Afterwards, they happily played outside. After going back, Jiang Jie continued to be affectionate with the person next to him, but unexpectedly, he was still bothered by the child in the other room all night.
The next day, they were directly slumped in their chairs when they suddenly received information about the alliance meeting. They were also preparing to go there in person and get ready. After returning, Old Mr. Jiang also planned to change the plan according to the new proposal and directly handed the materials to his grandson, Jiang Xuyang. Unexpectedly, upon hearing this opinion, the other party was preparing to say something more but was directly interrupted.
Seeing that his grandfather was not going to be lenient this time, Jiang Xuyang also prepared to discuss a plan to deal with the situation with his partners on the other side. On the other side, Jiang Jie and the person he liked continued preparing for the birthday banquet. Afterwards, they sat in a car together and arrived at the scene, ready to help things along.
Episode 22 Recap
Jiang Jie continued to hold hands with his girlfriend and arrived at the large courtyard of the Jiang family. Just as they were about to look for the kitchen, they saw Jiang Xuyang run over to lead the way for everyone, so they followed along to watch this good show. Unexpectedly, after they went over and Jiang Xuyang finished introducing the things nearby, he started being sarcastic towards his brother on the other side.
As soon as she heard these words, Jiang Xiu, who had rushed over, retorted without hesitation, directly making the other party leave in defeat. Seeing this, Li Nai couldn't help but admire the eloquence of the person in front of her. Unexpectedly, as soon as Jiang Xiu saw Cui Can approaching, she immediately continued to cooperate with her playmate in front of him, putting on a show.
After Jiang Xuyang returned in embarrassment and anger, he immediately started angrily kicking things nearby. Ignoring everything else, he told Zheng Fangxing next to him that no matter what the situation was today, he must control the situation and absolutely could not lose to Jiang Jie. Jiang Xiu felt bored while hosting guests with the people next to her and left the scene.
Just as she came to the courtyard alone, she met Cui Can and continued to fiercely retort to him. Unexpectedly, this time Cui Can still didn't state his plan. He directly draped his jacket over her shoulders, passionately kissed her, making a promise, then turned around and left. By the evening, everyone was sitting neatly at the tables.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Hao, who was nearby, saw Li Nai go out and secretly prepared to follow her to check on the situation, but her whereabouts were just seen by Jiang Xiu, who directly stopped her and was even preparing to confront the people next to her. Then Jiang Xuyang walked over, fearing complications, and started instructing his secretary to keep to himself. After returning to the house, Cui Can also acted as the host and told everyone an exciting story.
When Old Mr. Jiang, sitting in the front, heard it was a story about his son, he prepared to stand up and stop it, but he was immediately pulled back by his granddaughter next to him. Unexpectedly, after sitting for a while, Jiang Xuyang sneakily ran out and invited his father back home.
Seeing this situation, Jiang Jie also knew that Jiang Xuyang was secretly manipulating things behind the scenes, so he anxiously and hurriedly prepared to go out alone to find his master. After successfully finding his master, they prepared to continue with the next plan. Unexpectedly, Old Mr. Jiang in the house, seeing that what he did back then was exposed, was prepared to push all the blame onto his son next to him.
But this time, Jiang Jie had no intention of watching the other party continue to act. He directly ran out and publicly revealed the incident of his father's hand being broken back then. Unexpectedly, the person in front of him still felt that he had done nothing wrong. After Old Mr. Jiang saw that his son was unrepentant, he angrily prepared to reprimand him, but unexpectedly, he was still so angry that he was taken to the hospital.
After going out, seeing this chaotic scene in front of him, Jiang Jie also learned that he and the people around him were being used as pawns by Jiang Xuyang. He began to feel a little unwilling in his heart. After going out again, he also brushed past Jiang Xuyang and saw the news about his pre-made dishes appearing on television, so he prepared to continue making his shop the number one of the year to dismantle this plan.
The next day, Cui Can actively went to find Jiang Xiu and even held balloons, wanting to make her happy. But the person in front of him still couldn't be happy. She directly popped the balloon without hesitation and left. When Cui Can was about to chase after her, he saw his older sister. This time, he bravely told her that he absolutely did not regret the decision he had made.
Unexpectedly, when Li Nai was preparing to go out for work, she suddenly met Jiang Xuyang. He was even preparing to actively invite her out to discuss the matter of reclaiming the knife. When they sat down, Jiang Xuyang smugly wanted to stir up the relationship between the two of them, but she didn't listen at all and was still preparing to successfully launch the challenge to reclaim the knife.
On the other side, Jiang Xiu actively went to the hospital to visit her grandfather. Seeing his sorry state, she still planned to let him watch a good show.
Episode 23 Recap
In the evening, Jiang Xiu came sadly to the swing alone and sat down. She suddenly remembered making a swing with her brother when she was little, so she didn't hesitate to ask someone nearby to push her. Thinking about what had happened before, Jiang Xiu started to feel that her life was a bit of a failure. But in her brother's view, he calmly told the person next to him about the humiliations he had suffered.
He felt he was somewhat sorry to his sister. This time, he still put the choice in his sister's hands, letting her actively choose what she wanted to do. After this, the Jiang family started preparing for the upcoming competition. Even the news reported this on television. After Li Nai went back with her boyfriend, she also mentioned the competition, preparing to compete with the other party again.
Afterward, they happily went out go-karting, and after winning, they excitedly hugged each other. After this, people from both sides continued to prepare for the competition in an orderly manner, continuing to do various kinds of work behind the scenes. Jiang Xiu was cooking in the kitchen when there was a sudden power outage, which scared her greatly. After the power came back, she suddenly noticed a person wearing a mask sneakily taking something and immediately chased after them.
When she saw the person was Cui Can, she felt even more sad and told him that she knew what he had done for her, but because of his inexplicable disappearance and her lack of security, she felt there was no need for them to meet again. After hearing this, Cui Can didn't hesitate to tell her that he wanted to marry her.
Unexpectedly, after he went back and saw the news of his sister marrying someone else, he was locked up at home by the other party and not allowed to leave. On the other side, Jiang Xiu waited quietly at the entrance of the Civil Affairs Bureau for her boyfriend but still didn't see him, feeling very disappointed. Li Nai was busy with the competition for half a day but still couldn't think of any other good method.
While she was in a bad mood, she saw her father messing around in the kitchen and felt even more sad. Unexpectedly, when Li Jidong went out again, he was preparing to show his treasure to the person next to him. He kept muttering about things from his childhood, which directly reminded Li Nai of some beautiful memories, and she successfully made food made with emotion. Unexpectedly, when they went out again, they suddenly encountered the master.
They also saw the message Cui Can sent on WeChat, learned that he was in danger, and rushed over immediately. Jiang Xiu still didn't hesitate to open the door and take the other person out to get registered. Seeing their affectionate scene, Li Nai felt very envious. After this, the sixth challenge match was about to begin.
News reporters learned about this news and immediately reported it on television to warm up, and were very much looking forward to a satisfactory result this time. After successfully getting past her father, Li Nai happily came downstairs with her boyfriend and prepared to take a car to participate in the competition. This time, she was not facing an ordinary opponent and planned to prepare well. Jiang Jie happily sent her to the car like this.
After Jiang Xiu arrived at the hospital, she specially brought glasses for her grandfather, letting him personally watch the exciting match. After going out, she happily held her boyfriend's hand and prepared to participate in the competition. Soon, the reporters nearby ran over to surround them, started holding up microphones, wanting to ask Jiang Xiu some questions, but the person standing in front wearing sunglasses had no intention of answering. As soon as she heard the other party mention letting someone win, she angrily retorted.
Episode 24 (Ending) Recap
When they arrived at the venue, Jiang Xuyang saw his sister brought someone from outside. He continued to feel unconvinced and reminded the other party that things must be done strictly according to the competition rules. Unexpectedly, this time, the other party completely ignored his words and even generously displayed the wedding ring he wore on his hand. As soon as he saw the other party got married, Jiang Xuyang angrily pulled the person next to him and left together.
Unexpectedly, while people on both sides were preparing food, Jiang Xuyang didn't stop for a moment. He even deliberately left himself a backup plan, directly and without hesitation shouting for someone to find Li Jidong. As soon as she heard the news that her father was coming, Li Nai rushed to the elevator in a panic, preparing to go downstairs to find him, but unexpectedly she suddenly got trapped inside the elevator and couldn't get out.
Zhu Hao seized this opportunity and directly ran to Jiang Jie, telling him that his girlfriend was in danger. Everyone started rushing anxiously to the elevator to rescue her. This time, Jiang Jie was still ready to give up the competition for his girlfriend, but the outcome of this competition was very important for Li Nai, who was right there. With a serious face, she told him to do as she said. Time finally approached the competition.
After finishing his little tricks, Jiang Xuyang returned to his seat with satisfaction, preparing to watch this exciting match. With three minutes remaining, the Dusk Chef still hadn't arrived at the venue. Everyone else present started discussing animatedly. Even Jiang Xiu began to worry about the situation there. Then, just as the time was about to expire, Jiang Jie suddenly rushed to the scene, ready to participate in this competition on behalf of the head chef.
Hearing this outcome, Jiang Xuyang, who was under the stage, objected on the spot and even prepared to let other judges decide whether to agree. Just as Cui Can's sister was about to raise her hand to interfere, she was directly stopped by her younger brother. The person directly walked swaggeringly forward with an agreement document and announced on the spot that Li Nai had lost to Jiang Jie and given up the position of head chef.
This time, he even showed his identity to approve this decision, and without hesitation handed this arduous task to Jiang Jie before continuing to leave alone to watch this exciting match. At this time, Jiang Xuyang had no ability to continue to stop him, so he could only return to his seat alone to watch the competition. After the head chefs on both sides took their positions, they both took out the knives in their hands, preparing to compete.
Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, Zheng Fangxing directly and without hesitation took all the ingredients over here, wanting Jiang Jie to lose the competition. Seeing this scene, everyone started discussing animatedly, and even Jiang Jie himself began to hesitate a little.
In this situation, he was still thinking about some beautiful experiences he had while staying in the welfare home at that time, and he got an answer in his heart, and he was also preparing to make a satisfying dish for his sister. After successfully developing the ingredients himself, even the other audience members present began to admire Jiang Jie's hands-on ability.
The two siblings thus continued to make the dishes they were best at on site, until the end of the competition. Jiang Xiu felt very excited when she thought that there was a real competition between herself and her brother. They also watched the results of the judges' scoring together. Finally, it was Cui Can's sister's turn to vote.
She was preparing to cast her vote for the answer she wanted in her heart, ignoring the question raised by her younger brother. However, this time, the recording of her private transaction with Jiang Xuyang was suddenly played on the big screen, directly exposing it to every audience member present. Everyone started discussing animatedly after hearing about these schemes.
Jiang Xuyang even went up without hesitation to turn off the recording and prepared to sue for these rumors, but unexpectedly everyone was still not prepared to let him off. This time, Li Nai personally brought Zhu Hao to the competition venue, preparing to expose Jiang Xuyang's scheme.
Seeing Zhu Hao personally come to expose his scheme, Jiang Xuyang began to get angry and embarrassed, preparing to throw dirt on the other party, telling everyone not to believe these preposterous words. Unexpectedly, at the final moment, Cui Can's sister decided to follow her inner thoughts and cast her vote for Li Nai without hesitation, preparing to accept the corresponding legal punishment.
This time, even Jiang Xuyang, who had been planning all along, was taken away by the police on the spot. --- A month later, the alliance system in the catering market was successfully abolished. Li Nai and the people in the shop were very happy to hear this news, and they were also cheerfully preparing to welcome a new beginning with Jiang Jie.
