Transforming Into a Handsome Merman

When Jiang Haiyu woke up one day, he discovered that he had turned into a fish. No, to be precise, half a fish, since his upper body was still human, and only his legs had turned into a fish tail. You think this is a Western fairy tale, a mermaid? No, you're wrong. This is Eastern mythology: a carp spirit. That's right, all Jiang Haiyu did was eat a carp, and somehow he turned into half a carp spirit. And on top of that, he got saddled with a ghost, one that was supposedly several thousand years old and refused to die. Every day, it fussed over training the perfect heir for its dear friend. A certain ghost: "To be a worthy heir, you must master the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting; be elegant in public and handy in the kitchen; outshine the mistress and send the fourth wife packing; and find yourself a rich husband." A certain fish: "I'm a man." A certain ghost: "That's fine. I can just think of you as a woman." The fish felt as if his heart had taken a thousand points of damage, so he decided to call his childhood sweetheart for comfort. "Sisi, that old ghost in my house is going crazy again. Do you have any medicine?" A certain Si: "..." This novel is also known as A Ghost by My Side and My Dream Guy, Jump Into My Bowl. After discussing it with my editor today, I've decided that this novel will go VIP on the 4th of this month. However, because there are quite a few chapters, chapters 25 through 51 will be retroactively put behind the paywall. If you've already read them, little angels, please don't buy them. To all the little angels who like this story, I hope you'll keep supporting me. There will be three new chapters on the day it goes VIP. I bow in gratitude! My new novel currently being updated is a danmei apocalypse story, Apocalypse: Demonic Cultivation. It's about two powerful male leads. Little angels who might like it are welcome to add it to your collection. Theme:
