Ge Linlin accidentally read the short fairy tale The Water Demon in the Pond. After making a single snarky comment, she was dragged into the story by its water demon and forced to take the heroine's place. If she followed the plot to the end, she could return to reality.
But... what was she supposed to do when the male lead refused to follow the plot?
In the story, the male lead was so afraid of being snatched away by the demoness that he wouldn't go near any pool. The male lead she met, however, kept sneaking off to the water whenever he had a chance, hoping to catch a glimpse of the legendary water demon.
In the story, the male lead became a hunter and married a beautiful girl from the village. The male lead she met was so hopelessly straight that he couldn't even catch the beautiful girl's flirtatious glances.
In the story, the male lead was captured by the demoness after he married, and suffered terribly. In the end, the heroine crossed mountains and rivers three times to bring back a golden comb, a golden flute, and a golden spinning wheel to save him. The male lead she met, after being captured, wanted to help her decorate the house and eventually even told the heroine to get lost.
