Zhu Changqing has just ascended to the heavens when she is forced to transmigrate into a book, becoming the heroine Zhu Changqing in a novel titled The Unspeakable Legendary Tales of the Queen of the Seas and Her Seven Fish Ponds. She is also bound to a System called the Jinjiang Harmony System.
The System has a long list of rules: don't break character, don't create a love-triangle showdown, and don't mess around with the fish in your ponds.
To finish her mission and earn merit as soon as possible, Zhu Changqing diligently follows the plot and sets things right. She dutifully plays the attentive maid to the arrogant young master, the actor friend of the gentle movie star, the tireless assistant to the popular young idol, and the sweet, quiet younger stepsister to her cold-faced adoptive brother... All the while, she reminds herself that she absolutely cannot develop any improper feelings for them beyond her role.
But the next day...
Arrogant young master: You damn woman, I know you love money, and love me even more. So, out of the goodness of my heart, I'll give you a chance to stay by my side. Here's ten million as your bride price. Don't complain that it's too little. You can't be too greedy!
Gentle movie star: Before I entered this industry, I said that if I ever fell for someone, I'd announce it to everyone right away. Qingqing, let's be together.
Flirtatious young idol: Hey, Zhu Zhu, how about you give dating me a try? I mean it this time.
Cold-faced adoptive brother: Officially register yourself as a member of the Zhu family, Changqing.
The others: …
Zhu Changqing: ...
I swear I never flirted with them. System, you believe me, right?
#What's a queen of the seas? That's definitely not me#
#I only swam around in seven fish ponds. I absolutely wasn't trying to catch any fish. They all came after me on their own, I swear#
System: I can't handle this anymore. Pick one yourself.
Seven pairs of eyes turn to glare at her. Zhu Changqing: ...
System, don't sabotage me! Weren't you supposed to give me a warning before starting a love-triangle showdown?!!
Theme: It's better to be devoted to one person. Being a queen of the seas is no good, and getting caught is miserable.
