Zhao Shuqing was stunned the first time she saw Lin Feng trapped in the water tank—her beauty was breathtaking. As a marine scientist, Zhao Shuqing couldn’t help but reach out to touch the mermaid’s beautiful blue tail. The mermaid trembled all over, her stunning sea-blue eyes looking at her in disbelief. When Zhao Shuqing tried to explore more intimately, the mermaid suddenly slapped her hard and swam back to the deepest part of the tank.

That night, Zhao Shuqing hurriedly studied everything she could find about mermaids:

Only a mate is allowed to touch a mermaid’s tail.

Mermaids’ mating season is in March and April, and each mermaid has only one mate for life.

When courting, mermaids will offer their scales, but no human has ever actually received a mermaid scale.

Mermaids have thinking and language abilities, and after long contact with humans, they can learn human languages.

…

Even though she got slapped, the next day the mermaid still chose Zhao Shuqing as her researcher among all the marine scientists. However, every time Zhao Shuqing touched the mermaid’s tail, the mermaid’s eyes would turn red, and she would tremble, as if holding back some strong impulse.

On Zhao Shuqing’s birthday, she received a special gift from the mermaid: a sea-blue mermaid scale.

From that day on, Zhao Shuqing often found small special things in the mermaid’s room—her personal clothes, a lost pen, and little stickers she had casually given away.
