After the Little Merman Left, the Emperor Went Mad with Longing

I won't do that in this lifetime.” But Chongming doesn't know that his little shadow guard is a mermaid, and he can't bear the weight of a mermaid's tears. Tan Huo has known since childhood that he's a monster. He has an unpleasant voice and cries easily, making him an outcast among the merfolk.

Yet when that day really comes, he can't cry anymore. His heart is already too shattered to mend. The heartbroken mermaid sinks into the sea. But not long afterward, news spreads through the capital that the new emperor is consumed by memories of his lost love...
