Imperfect characters, neither realizes the other's feelings, but the lovers find their way to each other in the end.
Lin Qingxu, the finest creation in Ruo Yi's eyes, is a cold, formidable male lead whose combat strength stands at the top of his apocalyptic world, yet who softens for one person alone. One day, he suddenly tears through the dimensional barrier and appears right in the middle of her messy living room.
But he hasn't come to punish the irresponsible "creator" who made him.
He's come to beg for help: to save Lai Ying, the love of his life, who is about to die in his world.
A freshly graduated, unambitious novice author, Ruo Yi has only one bargaining chip: the ability to revise the plot. Trembling, she lays down her terms. "Save her? Fine. But while you're here, you have to listen to me."
And so, the apocalypse's big shot awkwardly learns to cook instant noodles and adapt to the rules of a peaceful world, carrying out her various schemes with earnest, upright seriousness.
Ruo Yi only meant to enjoy the thrill of being the one in control of the male lead she'd created. But gradually she realizes that falling in love is a disaster far more terrifying than the plot going off the rails.
Then one day, when she habitually threatens him with, "If you don't listen, I won't change the plot," he finally tears away the pretense of peaceful coexistence. It is as if their cozy everyday life had all been an illusion.
Ruo Yi realizes in terror that the story has long since slipped out of control, and she may be the only one who has fallen too deep.
