Yu Xiang’an dies unexpectedly while saving someone but wakes up as a high school student in a small county in the 1970s. Just as she’s about to celebrate her second chance at life, she faces two major challenges:
1. Her fiancé is seduced by her stepsister, who ends up pregnant.
2. She’s about to be sent to the countryside as a “sent-down youth” to farm.
Yu Xiang’an: “..This won’t do.”
With a fierce and decisive attitude, she resolves both problems in no time. But then another issue arises-how can she fall asleep at night when she’s starving?
That’s when she discovers her cheat: a farming game system!
In this era, what’s in high demand? Food and meat!
The system allows her to plant crops and harvest them instantly. With this golden finger, Yu Xiang’an stockpiles resources and eventually rises to prominence. After the reform and opening-up period, she builds a food empire, paving her way to wealth and success.
Years later, during a live interview:
The reporter asks,
“Your restaurant chain spans the country, from hot pot to fast food to five-star hotels. Many people call you the ‘King of Dining.’ What would you like to say about this title?”
Before Yu Xiang’an can answer, the live comments explode:
• “Thanks for the invite. That title’s too narrow—aside from the food court outside my door, the office building across the street also belongs to her. [hands on hips] ”
• “Not just the office building—she also owns a share in the fashion mall. [smug] ”
• “And let’s not forget, she dominates half of the cosmetics industry too. [evil grin] ”
• “Oh, and don’t overlook the first-aid kits at home. She’s got a stake in that too! [doge face] ”

One fateful day, they cross paths.
Yu Xiang’an: “…What a coincidence.”
Lin Chuanbai: “Yeah, really coincidental.”
Yu Xiang’an: “Did you die back then too?”
Lin Chuanbai: “Yes.”
They exchange a knowing look and walk away, pretending not to recognize each other.
The next day, they meet again—this time at the black market.
Yu Xiang’an eyes the wild ginseng in his hand. “…!”
Lin Chuanbai looks at the fat duck and apples in hers. “…!”
“Life is hard?”
Ha! The man’s/woman’s words are nothing but lies!
