Synopsis
Ten years after Jiang Ling was forced to die for turning from a human into a mermaid, she was reborn. Not long after swimming from the sea back to land, a mermaid wrapped her arms around Jiang Ling’s waist and wailed, “Mermaid King! You’ve finally returned!” Jiang Ling: “…? Is this some kind of scam?” She didn’t take it seriously and turned to flirt with a refined, elegant man who looked like he’d be easy to charm. It wasn’t until she summoned the Mermaid King’s scepter with her water-control magic and casually blasted the villains’ headquarters with a water cannon, rescuing every mermaid inside, that she understood… The mermaids cheered. Jiang Ling stared at her hands in disbelief and weakly protested, “I just waved my hand. I wasn’t even trying…” The mermaids grew even more excited, shouting at the top of their lungs, “Long live the Mermaid King! Your Majesty, please accept our humble bow!” Jiang Ling: “…” After the initial shock, people were in an uproar! Jiang Ling, who had been branded a freak and persecuted by everyone ten years ago, was actually such a powerful Mermaid King? That very day, officials came to her with a sincere request: “Ms. Jiang, our city has been hit by severe rainstorms for days. Could you help pump out the water and prevent flooding?” Jiang Ling: “…?” - Ji Mingxi was an ancient sacred tree. When he was on the verge of being struck dead by lightning, Jiang Ling saved him. In return, he willingly made a pact to become her guardian deity. But she died. He went mad, but it was all in vain, and he could do nothing. For years afterward, guilt ate away at him. He searched everywhere for her for years without success. Just as he was about to give up hope, she appeared out of nowhere… She was as lively and mischievous as ever, and even remembered her awful stepbrother, but she had forgotten him alone. The bitterness went down his throat like fiery liquor. Then he met her bright eyes, fixed intently on him, as though she were very interested in his looks… He froze, then tentatively tugged open his collar. Her eyes grew even brighter, and she even seemed to want to touch him. The man’s thoughts shifted. A faint trace of desire suddenly clouded his eyes. - Later: Jiang Ling shrank back and trembled as his vines teased her. She complained, “Ji Mingxi, you’re always seducing me!” The vines pursued her relentlessly as the man laughed in a low voice. “Yes, I’m seducing you.” The mermaids who witnessed it all: “!!!” That very day, the entire mermaid clan erupted. Word spread like wildfire that their revered Mermaid King had a wickedly alluring man by her side. The mermaids couldn’t sit still. They crowded around Jiang Ling and cautiously asked whether she was so obsessed with his looks that she’d stopped working toward her goals. Jiang Ling gave a light cough, reluctantly pulled her hand back from Ji Mingxi, and said with a straight face, “We still need to practice a little restraint!” Ji Mingxi: “…” The mermaids caught sight of the seducer’s dark expression, nodded in satisfaction, and cried, “The Mermaid Lord is wise!” #The Birth of a King# #Flirting with a Guardian Deity# #What You Think Is Reckless Flirting Is Actually Me Seducing You on Purpose# #The Abstinent Mermaid King and Her Scheming, Bewitching Man# #Countdown to the Return of the City’s Beloved# #When the Mermaid King Unleashes Her Power, I’m There and He’s Not# A mischievous, troublemaking, fast-talking drama queen who seems sunny but is actually a pessimist ✖ a dark-hearted, devoted man who goes from “I just want her to come back” one second to “Why does she remember him but not me?” the next, always jealous, always holding back, secretly seducing her Notes: 1.

But Bai Lang blocked her path, his face dark. An Yu eyed him warily. “What is it?” Bai Lang gritted his teeth. “Are you blind?” An Yu’s expression went blank as she took a few seconds to work up to a furious retort. At last, the man could hold back no longer and blurted it out: “An Yu, I like you! Can’t you tell?” An Yu nearly lost control of her blade.
