Reborn at twenty in 1997 Chongqing with a game-style equipment bar, Yang Zaiping decides the comeback tour starts at a street-side wok.

Yang Zaiping wakes back in his twentieth year, in the river-town food culture of late-90s Sichuan, carrying a literal inventory slot that only equips cooking gear he can earn honestly. No empire, no harem — just fire, pepper, and the slow build of a kitchen name that lasts.
