◎ A frail girl born across time and space X an ancient god ◎

After her college entrance exams, Wen Ci goes on vacation to an island and secretly starts dating someone without telling her family. As they spend more time together, she begins to notice that he's different from other people.

Every full moon, he falls ill. His temperature runs high, and his skin grows covered in tiny, snake-like scales. The only way to ease his pain is to soak in water.

Later, Wen Ci falls into the deep sea and accidentally discovers a man-eating mermaid demon who lures humans with its singing voice. It has exactly the same face as her boyfriend.

Blurb for You Should Call Me Uncle:

[Jiang Zhaozhao X Chu Xian, fictional setting, fifteen-year age gap, an old flame rekindled.]

Jiang Zhaozhao is reborn.

In her previous life, she died on her wedding night.

That evening, the groom, Wei Yunlan, was still drinking with the guests in the front hall when a fire mysteriously broke out in the rear courtyard.

But someone had locked the door of the bridal chamber from the outside, and Jiang Zhaozhao couldn't escape.

Smoke poured in without end. Just before she suffocated, she vaguely saw someone rush into the flames.

Sadly, it wasn't the groom, but his cousin, Chu Xian.

And even more sadly, Chu Xian arrived too late.

She never woke up. All he managed to save was her corpse.

Perhaps because she couldn't rest in peace, her soul wandered the world for many years.

She watched Wei Yunlan marry her cousin just three months after her death.

She watched her usually stern imperial uncle slaughter the entire Wei family for her sake.

What surprised her most was Chu Xian.

When he rushed into the fire that night and rescued her corpse, he wasn't unscathed.

As he ran in and gathered her in his arms, the canopy bed above them suddenly collapsed. He shielded her with his arm.

Afterward, a long scar remained on his arm, stretching from his forearm to his wrist.

Whenever it was close to healing, Chu Xian would tear the scab open. In an instant, blood poured out. He seemed unable to feel the pain, simply watching the blood drip down, his expression calm and his eyes dark.

At the time, Jiang Zhaozhao was floating beside him, cursing furiously, but he couldn't hear a single word.

Later, she watched him rise to the rank of Grand General, becoming the military official feared most by the court.

And the scar on his arm... never disappeared.

When she opened her eyes again, Jiang Zhaozhao had returned to the eve of her coming-of-age ceremony. Unmarried, in the prime of her life.

Later, Wei Yunlan declared his love for her in front of everyone.

Jiang Zhaozhao raised her slender fingers and tilted Chu Xian's chin, her eyes alluring. "If I'm to marry, I'll only marry him."

"Brother Jinghong, would you marry me?" she asked.

Chu Xian's brow twitched. "Your father and I are as close as brothers. By seniority, you should call me Uncle."

Jiang Zhaozhao said, "That's fine. I don't mind that you're older."

Later, Chu Xian fled to the frontier.

Every few days, Jiang Zhaozhao would send him a letter. Each one ended with the same sentence: "Uncle, will you marry me today?"
