[Status: Completed] "You're not taking me to bed. Ever." "Who said it had to be on the bed?" "What?! You wouldn't dare kick me off the bed, and I will not share it with you!" "The only reason I would force you out is so I can have you on the floor." She gritted her teeth and glared at her grinning husband. "Go fuck yourself!" she hissed. "Only if you show me how," he winked back. Once the tabloids released an article claiming business tycoon Shen Yi was gay, his family forced him to date and seek a relationship to stave off the false accusations. After many failed encounters, Shen Yi came upon Lu Xinyi. Orphaned since childhood, Lu Xinyi had no safe haven left the moment her boyfriend and her best friend betrayed her. Losing her only treasures left, she felt like dying inside as soon as she boarded that ship. However, after a week-long cruise with Shen Yi, she struck a deal with him. Now the Young Madam of the most powerful Shen family, Lu Xinyi turned into a better version of herself. She would not only fight back against those who had hurt her, but she had also taken a shot at accomplishing her father's broken dream. Attending the country's most prestigious culinary school, Silver Leaf Academy, Lu Xinyi was compelled to compete not only for herself but also for her husband's pride. Through Shen Yi's love and support, she dreamed to emerge victorious one assault after another from a family that she had long abandoned. Oh, but love for food can be a dangerous thing! As Lu Xinyi and her friends struggle to survive the competition and schemes, more and greater challenges await her, putting her love (for food and Shen Yi) to the test

The book is an autobiographical 'novel' based on the memoir of an 8 year old girl growing up in colonial Singapore. She gives a detailed description of the diverse members of her parent's household, living under one roof of a prestigious Colonial style bungalow. Zubaidah a delusional woman best described as 'one sandwich short of a picnic' is the family Chief Cook. Her humourous antics and spirited escapades are not without drawing undesirable results! Her father, a Detective Chief Inspector with the Colonial Forces, is traced from his Malay Royal heritage, to his emigration to Singapore, and to the eventual 'arranged marriage' with her mother, and the intriguing, humorous, family life that evolved thereafter. She creates a highly visual depiction of incidents, places and the book characters themselves, who all appear to come alive by her descriptive narrative. Her regales of incidents, customs, festivities, events and places not only lend the reader a candid overview of colonial lifestyle in Singapore of a bygone era, but also offers a clear insight into the activities, practices and differences of a community where British colonials are juxtaposed with an amalgamation of a buffet of Asian races of immigrants living under colonial rule, in one country. Her simple yet frank perceptions and other quaint and quirky regales are peppered with humour and mischief; quite contrary to the expectations from one with a regimental upbringing. The 'prince and heir' son, her brother, is introduced, with an alarming narrative of a near death miss involving a loaded police revolver and, a foolishly curious young boy; an incredible account of a supernatural incident afflicting him inadvertently and thereupon revealing their mother's clandestinely disguised ghostbusting skills! Then, a mystical house guest arrives and stays with the family for several months showcasing both bizarre and, endearing incidents ....

brief introduction: Wu Mei, the head chef of private cuisine, accidentally ate a red umbrella and when she woke up again she became the second daughter of a pancake shop in Yanjing City.   My father died early, and my widowed mother worked from dawn to dusk to support the family, and she was very busy.   Looking at the group of hungry little kids, Mei Niang had no choice but to pick up the spatula.   Originally, I just wanted to feed my younger brothers and sisters, but within a few days, neighbors in the alley came over after hearing the fragrance.   "Sister Mei, do you still have the mulberry jam you made last time?"   "Second girl, give me ten of those pickled mustard greens pancakes!"   "Sister Mei'er, the little wine stand in front wants to order 20 kilograms of braised pig's head meat from you!"   Relying on her cooking skills that turned ordinary food into delicious food, Mei Niang quickly became a food trendsetter in the entire alley, and her small pancake shop did a booming business.   The poor people in the alley suddenly became plump and full of hope, which attracted the attention of the Wucheng Bingmasi.   Several adults came here in person to investigate the case.   Three days later, Commander Gu slowly walked out of the alley, holding on to the wall, followed by a group of subordinates who were staggering and burping.   "Let's get everyone out. There's nothing stolen here, but the food is just too good..."   Mr. Gu looked back at the sign of the pancake shop and suddenly felt that he had a new goal in life.   If I could eat such delicious meals every day, what else could I ask for?   Content tags: past life, time travel, sweet food , drama
