The female lead is delicate and adorable. The male lead helps her reincarnate as a lucky koi fish deity, making her believe she's a god. He then sends her down to the mortal realm to fall in love with him again. Both the male and female leads are childhood sweethearts who grow up together as children, it's so sweet! The story revolves around the female lead winning him over while the male lead undergoes tribulations in the mortal world. After descending to the mortal realm, the male lead also loses his memory (forgetting he's a god), but he remembers it later. The plot is very engaging.
