Hao Feng is famously called "The Iceman" with his dead serious expression and iron-fist rule of the restaurant. He never smiles. Yet, he has a tragic past of a relationship gone bad. After his ex-girlfriend betrayed him, he found it hard to ever believe another woman and had dedicated his life to being the best chef. Yet, in Xiao Xia and her nephew, he found his "Iceman" exterior was beginning to melt. And when he found out about her difficult past and the lie she had told to stay in his family, instead of kicking her out, he felt compelled to help her. To top it all, Xiao Xia discovered that she has a natural talent in cooking which can only be found in top chefs - a gift so rare that even Hao Feng's father was keen to train her up as the next head chef of the restaurant.
