[Rich second-generation fishing fanatic and anti-fake-sweetness expert top × mermaid bottom who seems like a crybaby but is actually a big shot. They dote on each other.]
Everyone knows that forum fishing fanatics can do anything except fish.
Lei Yuan was one of them.
Born into a wealthy family, he had an older brother to inherit the family business, so he "retired early" and took up a leisurely life of fishing in the wild.
After two months of fishing, he had seen everything except fish: ancient cultivation manuals, magic staffs overflowing with elemental power, and three-leaf-clover fossils that brought luck to whoever wore them...
With these things, he had a wonderful time showing off and slapping down his detractors.
At a gathering of wealthy heirs, they mocked him for not bringing bodyguards and said he was bound to meet a bad end. Lei Yuan smashed a solid wood table with one hand!
At a class reunion, an old rival showed off his loving relationship and jeered at him for being single. A huge fireball flew straight into his face!
Online users said fishing fanatics were harming their karma. So while fishing, he casually livestreamed a card draw and pulled nine SSR cards in ten tries!
That was how ordinary life was for a fishing fanatic, until he caught... a mermaid!
A cultivation classic said, "Since ancient times, merfolk have been the most powerful creatures of all. They are naturally vicious, with sharp teeth and claws, and tear apart any human who comes near."
But why was the one in front of him such a crybaby, pretending to cry and acting cute?
Three-thousand-year-old little mermaid, lying pitifully on his back: "Big brother, I fell down. I need a kiss to get back up~"
Twenty-five-year-old anti-fake-sweetness expert Lei Yuan: "Back, back, back!"
From then on, the mermaid clung to Lei Yuan. Every day, he would secretly dive down and hang all kinds of strange things on Lei Yuan's fishing hook: thousand-year-old medicinal sea plants, precious pearls and gems, iridescent scales...
He even crawled into Lei Yuan's bed himself. "You've already accepted my dowry, so you can't call off the wedding!"
A thousand-year-old medicinal plant, just one leaf of which cured the old master's long-standing illness and even extended his life.
The pearls and gems dazzled at an exhibition, saving the company's faltering reputation and shocking the entire industry.
The iridescent scales? They didn't seem to have any use, but Lei Yuan still treasured one and wore it close to his heart. Because it was the first scale shed by his very own mermaid!
Many years later, Lei Yuan had become a "strange and extraordinary person" in the eyes of the world. At the government's enthusiastic invitation, he even joined the Association of Espers.
Only then did he learn that his little mermaid wasn't an ordinary mermaid, but a big shot in the Marine Environmental Protection Association...
In everyone else's eyes, the mermaid was outrageously domineering. "Anyone who bullies my Lei Yuan won't be able to show their face in Z Province!"
But to Lei Yuan, that adorable expression was obviously just him acting cute!
