Mermaid genes have changed, and mermaids will eventually turn into humans. As the last mermaid in the waters off Guang City, Yu Jiao resolutely decided to come ashore and join human society.
That night, Yu Jiao knocked on the only house with its lights on. The owner, Pei Jingcheng, mistook her for a door-to-door scammer.
Yu Jiao: “Take me in! I have money!”
Pei Jingcheng: “Then walk five hundred meters, turn right and go another eight hundred meters, then drive straight for three kilometers. There's a city hotel over there. Go spend your money!”
Their meeting was a little dramatic, but Yu Jiao really did get her wish and was “taken in” by Pei Jingcheng.

To repay him, she dived down to retrieve pearls from shipwrecks and brought up porcelain bottles that even modern technology couldn't reach.
Yu Jiao: “Hehe, a present for you. Would this bottle look nice with flowers in it?”
Pei Jingcheng looked calm on the surface, but was secretly tearing his hair out. “What do I do if archaeologists find this? How am I supposed to explain it!”

As they spent day after day together, their innocent relationship gradually changed. After Pei Jingcheng lost Yu Jiao and got her back, he finally admitted that he liked her and resolved to give her the very best life he could.
Even a mermaid needs an education, so he'd hire a tutor! The money from running a bed and breakfast wasn't enough for Yu Jiao, so he'd innovate and expand to earn more! If he had to learn to cook healthy food himself to give her a good life, then he'd learn!

A naive, innocent beauty with a wooden head, Yu Jiao had no idea how love worked. Pei Jingcheng patiently helped her understand her feelings, but before they could confess their love, an abrupt change drove them apart.
When they met again, Pei Jingcheng was the owner of a nationally renowned hotel chain, while Yu Jiao was a famous marine-animal trainer.
Yu Jiao: “I'll finish what I didn't get to say back then. Will you still take care of me for the rest of my life?”
Pei Jingcheng: “Of course. My main job is to take good care of my little mermaid.”
