The Heartthrob Is Carrying the Obsessive Merman's Baby

Sorry, I'm temporarily out of inspiration, so updates will be irregular.

I'll try to finish it this year, but you can wait until it's complete before reading.

A short-tempered, possessive merman top X a carefree, business-minded straight man bottom (warnings at the end)

1

Su Qiao transmigrates into the body of a timid young master.

His father is dead, his family is ruined, and greedy relatives have their eyes on the only valuable thing left, the family home. He barely manages to keep it.

Su Qiao stays perfectly calm and goes back to his old trade.

He opens a restaurant and starts a business, and soon his life is thriving.

Then one day, he finds himself with an enviable marriage proposal.

2

His fiancee is rich, powerful, and gorgeous.

She's also got a terrible temper, loves to fight, and has countless enemies in the capital.

Su Qiao wants to call off the engagement. After all, a businessman needs to make money through friendly relations; all that talk of fighting and killing isn't for him.

But as soon as he says it, his fiancee runs a finger over a blade thin as a cicada's wing and looks up, her eyes curved with a vicious, alluring glint:

You really want to break off the engagement? Why don't you think it over?

Su Qiao: ...How am I supposed to think it over with that knife in your hand?

The Records of Strange Things says that merfolk live in the East Sea. They are beautiful, and their tears turn into pearls. But they are violent, bloodthirsty, and possessive. They are easily swayed by emotions and desire; once they set their sights on someone, they must have them, even if it kills them.

What people don't know is that every merman must pass through a life-and-death ordeal. Before reaching adulthood, they are extraordinarily weak, like fragile glass dolls with no ability to protect themselves. Only the blood of a particular person can ease their condition.

Xie Zhao is half-merman, and has never thought anyone could sway his emotions or desires. But when he is at his most vulnerable, he meets Su Qiao. From then on, Su Qiao is clear and bright, poised and radiant, his light.

[Content Warnings]

1. Pregnancy and childbirth. These events happen later, but the story does include them.

2. Both leads are beautiful. The top is beautiful in women's clothes from the start, while the bottom disguises himself early on and becomes beautiful later.

3. The bottom is a magnet for admirers, with many cannon-fodder tops around him, but the leads are each other's one true love.

4. The top goes through a darkening arc in the middle and later parts of the story. At first, she has the personality of a willful young lady.

5. A fictional setting, a fictional setting, a fictional setting. The background draws on the Tang, Song, and Ming dynasties, whichever is most convenient.

Wild-dog honor student top X little-prince underachiever bottom

Wang Zixiao has had a smooth life for all sixteen years of it.

Loving parents, a comfortable family, and a handsome face...

His biggest worries as a young man are his grades, which never improve, and his seemingly crooked sexual orientation.

Until he meets Chen Man, a transfer student whose background is a mystery

The first time Wang Zixiao sees Chen Man, he thinks Chen Man looks like a poodle lost in a pack of mutts.

He doesn't fit in with this small town. Behind his seemingly polite, friendly manner is an air of superiority.

Later, Wang Zixiao realizes Chen Man is no poodle at all. He's a wild dog hiding his fangs.

After they get together, Chen Man gazes into his eyes with tender affection: You know, if you reverse your name, you're the Little Prince.

Are you illiterate, Chen Kuai-kuai? Wang Zixiao rolls his eyes and patiently explains:

If you reverse my name, it reads Xiao Zi Wang!

Chen Man says nothing, only smiles:

The Little Prince I imagine is just like you.

A warm family, open-minded parents, and you, steadfast and true.
