[New story in the author's column, The Little Mermaid Reborn as the Rich Family's Little Childhood Friend, is complete]
Blurb:
It was the fourth year Lu Mian had been by Li Xiao's side.
Everyone knew perfectly well that the little dancer Boss Li had hired was just a plaything, someone whose features happened to resemble that person he loved from afar.
The theater where Lu Mian's ballet had been scheduled to perform, the Grand Metropolitan Theater, was casually promised by Li Xiao to his beloved so she could hold a private cocktail party there.
At the party, a friend teased, "I saw people online saying you'd be going to support Xiao Lu today. I said, there's no way you'd go to a dump like that."
"Today?" Li Xiao said, swirling his wineglass with his usual nonchalance. "Hah, I got the date mixed up."
That night, an old, dilapidated little art gallery outside C City caught fire.
Lu Mian didn't make it out, having stayed behind to save someone.
The instant the flames consumed him, a dying boy in a hospital overseas finally got his heartbeat back.
Three years later, a production of The Phantom premiered to great acclaim, and its tour arrived in C City.
On enormous posters everywhere, a masked dancer struck a graceful pose, looking just like that person.
Everyone in their circle knew Boss Li hadn't spoken a word about that person in three years.
They all remembered that little dancer. For those years, he'd always done whatever Boss Li said, coming whenever he was called and leaving whenever he was dismissed.
Until that day three years ago, when the sky was lit with flames.
When Li Xiao saw them carry someone out of the fire, he went mad.
He rasped an order for Lu Mian to come back at once, but Lu Mian didn't budge.
He threatened coldly that Lu Mian should never come back, but Lu Mian had already taken root in his heart and never left again.
Reader's guide and content warnings:
1. About the older man's age: He's 29 at the start of the story, which counts as old by Jinjiang standards.
2. The bottom is reborn in someone else's body, with a face that's 80 to 90 percent similar.
3. The top is a jerk, but has no feelings for the "beloved" and has never been physically intimate with them.
4. Things will be set up in advance. I hope to write a complete story. 1v1, happy ending.
5. Rich-family feuds and tragic romance. Very cliched and over-the-top. If you're not into melodrama, this may not be for you.
6. This is a fictional setting, so don't compare it to reality. If you argue, you're right.
7. Both the author and the characters have flaws. If you don't like it, just click away. Please don't get upset.
Here's a sweet new story, The Little Mermaid Reborn as the Rich Family's Little Childhood Friend.
Yu Xi was a frail five-year-old little mermaid. The day he entered the human world, he happened to arrive during his kindergarten class's first swimming lesson.
All the children watched nervously as the smallest, palest new kid suddenly leaped into the pool. He swam smoothly through the azure water like a fish, beautiful as a spirit born in the water.
When Yu Xi surfaced, he splashed the tallest, grumpiest boy in the class, who was standing by the pool, from head to toe.
Realizing he'd caused trouble, Yu Xi blinked his big, round, watery eyes. With his bangs dripping wet against his forehead, he reached out to make peace.
The Gu family's butler, standing nearby, couldn't stop him in time. This is bad...
As everyone stared in disbelief, the seemingly bad-tempered boy frowned and pulled the little dumpling out of the water. He wrapped the tiny body in his own towel and said irritably, "Public pools are dirty. From now on, swim at home."
Swimming instructor: ...

The young master of the Gu family, Gu Beilu, had been a germaphobe since childhood. No one was allowed near him, except for the little rascal who moved in next door when he was five.
Yu Xi had just finished playing in the mud, and Gu Beilu couldn't wait to take his hand and hold it tight.
An older student offered him a clean handkerchief. Gu Beilu stepped in front of Yu Xi, who was in his arms, and refused with a cold expression.
Only after watching the student walk away did he turn around and wipe Yu Xi's muddy little hand on his own white shirt.
The butler in the distance: ...
Adorable, cheerful little ray of sunshine vs. possessive, germaphobic top student
Theme: Love the world and stay true to yourself
How should I put it? After reading it, I felt an inexplicable feeling of emptiness and an uncomfortable feeling of neither being up nor down.
Overall, the rhythm of the first half is very good, including Li Gou's misbehavior, Mian Mian's inner tugging, and the bloody scenes. However, the subsequent crematorium is really not strong enough, and Li Gou's change of mentality is described a bit less. It seems that Mian Mian's death made him enlightened, enlightened, and suddenly he knew how to love.
I think that as an adult around 30 years old, his thoughts and views will not change easily, and he will become more stubborn, not to mention that he is still "Mr. Li" who has been in power for a long time. You must know that the farther away from ordinary people, the more difficult it is for a person in power to reflect on himself. If Li Gou's first 30 years were characterized by deceitful interpersonal relationships and false business marriages, then the established "Mr. Li" would not have repented so quickly.
People often say that there is great terror between life and death, so my immature suggestion is to give him a double blow both physically and mentally. You need to let him clearly understand that even if all the power and wealth are in your hands, you cannot prevent the death of your lover and fall into nightmares and regrets day and night. At the same time, you must understand that the separation of yin and yang is not the most terrifying thing, but that even if you die immediately, it cannot change the endless pain and hurt you left him in the last moment of his life. At the same time, the constant pain in your vagina makes you feel the pain when your loved one loses his life.
In this sober understanding, I began to reflect on myself, and gradually realized that some of the things I had taken for granted in the past were actually a kind of harm to my lover. Then he discovered that the harm he had caused to his lover due to his indifference in the past would turn into a sharp sword and stab him countless times in the rest of his life after his lover passed away. Then use these injuries to remind yourself what stupid things you have done. It is not until the God of Death is magnanimous and gives death to yourself like a charity that you can complete the atonement.
And when you have decided to punish yourself in this way, you find that your lover has come to the world again. All kinds of emotions such as panic, doubt, surprise, and fear come to your heart. You want to atone for your sins, but you are also afraid that your lover will hate you and be afraid of you when you see him again. With such indescribably complicated and contradictory thoughts, you still choose to confirm whether your lover is really back. Then you witness how relaxed and happy you are without your lover, and you realize that this is the thing you fear most.
This is just my little suggestion for the change in Li Gou's psychological activity. Later, I will use practical actions to win back Mian Mian's heart. I don't think it's too much to add more than a hundred chapters.?? `?
Booked it all, it was still very interesting as it was written before the rebirth. The crematorium is too simple and seems very thin.
I feel like there's something about the if line's fierce dog...
I read it in one go. I have been looking forward to rebirth. The old man is really too much. The part after rebirth is always a bit unfinished. I feel that it is to write the reconciliation quickly. Many places that can lay the foundation for the story have been skipped. The crematorium is not very big. After all, we Mianmian is a soft-hearted person. Fortunately, the calm sweetness of the if line makes up for many regrets in the parallel world. I am very grateful to the author for his great creation.
Regardless of whether you're a man or a woman, I don't understand the idea of giving up your studies for love.
Very nice! Thanks for the limited fee!
Even if you try so hard, you're not as good as a dog. It's so funny.
I'll go. If I hadn't gone through the list and ordered them all, I wouldn't have known about the extra benefits.
Thanks for the limited fee, I love watching it
Alas, crotch stepping is a familiar word. I can't help but sigh when I see it. Learning to dance is really hard. The physical and mental pain is secondary. The pain of money is the only thing that makes people helpless. Mianmian's dance path is so happy. If all dance students who love dance can not give up helplessly because of money, the art of dance must be more prosperous than it is now.
