One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain. Even knowing the female lead wants to kill him, he still eagerly runs to become dried merman.
Synopsis
As the legitimate second daughter of the Lingnan aristocratic family, Jiang Yang is adored by thousands. During a voyage at sea, she accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
The merman tribe all know:
Humans are fierce and brutal, with ruthless methods. They love to hunt mermen who come ashore, or hurt their feelings to lure out merman tears; they bewitch and kill them to refine merman oil for eternal lamps.
“So why did you still come to find me back then? You knew that I also wanted to catch you to refine oil…”
Many years later, Jiang Yang asks while hugging him.
The merman obediently places his chin in Jiang Yang’s palm, his eyes full of dependence and attachment.
“Humans are all bad people, but A Yang is different. A Yang is very gentle. Even if you want to catch me to refine oil… A Yang is still the best. A Yang is the best in the world.”
When Chi Mei first meets Jiang Yang after being captured, he is drawn to her kind and gentle nature, which stands out in contrast to the cruelty of the other humans. Chi Mei starts to fall in love with her, believing she returns his feelings.
Even when someone tries to undermine Jiang Yang, telling Chi Mei that Jiang Yang is just playing with him, Chi Mei refuses to believe it. His faith in Jiang Yang’s love remains unshakable. When his brother Fu Yue comes up, who was abandoned by his human lover (later revealed to be Jiang Yang’s sister), Chi Mei passionately defends Jiang Yang, certain that unlike that “bad woman”, Jiang Yang would never betray him.
Chi Mei’s love grows to the point where he decides to defy his clan and abandon his life in the sea to be with Jiang Yang. When they reunite on the island after his escape, and Jiang Yang tells Chi Mei she is willing to marry him, Chi Mei is overjoyed. He eagerly looks forward to their wedding and dreams of having children with her. His devotion is such that even when Jiang Yang suddenly leaves the island, Chi Mei refuses to believe she has abandoned him, stubbornly clinging to faith in her love against all evidence.
Later, when Chi Mei discovers Jiang Yang has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs. Even Chun Jian’s bitter warnings cannot dissuade him. For Chi Mei, a life without Jiang Yang is not worth living.
After finding Jiang Yang, Chi Mei’s love remains steadfast despite the obstacles they face. He supports Jiang Yang as she takes on new responsibilities, and when he becomes pregnant with their child, Chi Mei is blissfully happy…
