The Adorable Little Mermaid Is the Cutest

Bai Qi was an abandoned merfolk baby.

His tail wasn't golden and glittering like everyone else's. It was white.

A baby couldn't survive alone in the ocean, so he set his sights on the dolphin next door.

After a bout of cute pleading and acting adorable, Mr. Dolphin agreed to let him stay and fed him every day.

Bai Qi loved this leisurely, lazy-fish sort of life.

He traveled all over with Mr. Dolphin, seeing beautiful sights and lovely creatures.

Just as he had grown used to this life,

on the day he came of age, his tail turned the rarest shade of pink.

The people who had abandoned Bai Qi now wanted him back when they saw his tail.

Bai Qi, whose spoiled temper had grown more and more pronounced, hadn't even had a chance to lash out before Mr. Dolphin and the little friends they'd met along the way drove the merfolk away for him.

Then Mr. Dolphin confessed his love to him.

Bai Qi: I thought we were best buds, but you want to hit on me?
