Su Xiaofan was pushed off a cliff by her fiancé—the top scorer of the college entrance exam—when he returned to their hometown, and her fragrant young life was snuffed out.
Su Xiaomo, a world-famous chef and culinary expert whose dishes were coveted by luxury hotels across the globe, was framed by a rival and died tragically.
From that moment on, the renowned chef became a poor village girl. Even a pot of wild vegetables could turn into a delicacy in her skillful hands.
At home, she had an elderly, sickly grandmother and a heavily pregnant mother who was due any day. Her unlucky father had died soon after planting the seed in her mother’s belly. As if that weren’t enough, they were dirt poor, and greedy relatives kept coming to collect debts, stripping the house of anything valuable.
Su Xiaomo was furious. Since she had become Su Xiaofan, she would live Su Xiaofan’s life well.
Clutching the family’s only kitchen knife, she twirled it like a juggling act between her thin fingers, her eyes flashing coldly as her lips curved into a chilling smile:
“Don’t think a chef’s knife is only good for chopping vegetables. Taking a head or two is just as easy…”
As soon as she finished speaking, silence fell over the scene. Then, as if wishing they had a few extra legs, everyone bolted in terror.
After scaring off those greedy relatives, the elderly village chief appeared, holding the hand of a porcelain-doll-like child. Wearing a serious expression, he announced:
“The engagement between the Su family girl and her fiancé has been annulled. From today onward, you will come to my house as a child bride.”
