[Tsundere, oblivious top-tier star x sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside award-winning actress]
Chi Yun transmigrates into the body of the world's last mermaid. When her mating season arrives, instinct draws her ashore from the deep sea.
Just after growing a pair of legs, she sleepily spends the whole night nibbling on a fragrant magical herb.
The next day, the herb is gone, and she's been marked!
Because the marking was done incorrectly, Chi Yun's mating season goes haywire and becomes difficult to control.
Until one day, during a variety show, Chi Yun catches the long-missed scent of the magical herb.
She discovers that her rival, who stole her endorsement deal, is the very herb she once nibbled on!
Her bite marks are clearly imprinted on its leaves!
And there's a little magical-herb mark on her lower back!
Chi Yun's legs go weak with flustered embarrassment.
She can't stay in show business anymore.

One night, her mating instincts become impossible to resist. Following the magical-herb scent drifting leisurely from next door, Chi Yun knocks on Wen Lan's door on unsteady legs.
Her tail peeks out from beneath her skirt. With her ears red, she asks, "C-could you mark me again, the way we mermaids do it?"
