Merman Wei Ying and Cold Business Man Lan Zhan

--------------------------------------------------

Wei Ying had lived most of his life under the sea. But because of the mysterious alluring man he abandoned the thought of growing old with a beautiful mermaid.

It was the bottle of a weird drink that got Wei Ying captivated enough to leave his cove and venture to the shores. Where the humans are seen often.

There he meets the handsome man who offers those bottles and leaves them behind.

...

The ocean breeze was cool as it hit the face of Lan Zhan. The smell of salt in the air was very strong as the waves gets bigger and bigger. The sky was a vast blue with no signs of clouds. While the sun was already nearing the edge of the sea. He was by the beach just like the previous days. It was his safe haven. A place where no one can disturb him or force him to marry someone he doesn't like.

Beside him sat two bottles of emperor smile, the product of his parents hard work. It was his only reminder of his parents hard work before they died.

Lan Zhan looked up into the sky and spotted the twin stars that he deemed as his parents who're now watching from up there. Though he doesn't smile much, this time he allowed it as his lips broke into a small smile barely noticeable.

But a certain mer hidden behind a rock saw it. He found the man looking even more handsome than he already is. And his heart beat faster the longer he stared. Just like the other days.

"Hmm... When will that handsome guy leave? I want to drinks those bottles already. I've been craving them a lot and badly wants the taste in my mouth." Wei Ying whined as he played with his long hair. It had been an hour now since he was hiding.

This has been his daily routine ever since he fell in love with the handsome man and his bottles of weird drink. At first he hated the taste of the drink but after a while he began to love it and got addicted to it.

Another hour had passed before finally Lan Zhan stood up from his seat. He dusted his pants before leaving. Clearly forgetting the bottles he had brought with him.

And once his figure was far away Wei Ying swam to the rock and snatched the bottles before going to his hideout. It was a cave just a few miles away from the spot the handsome always sits.

His black and red tail created powerful force that propelled him forward. He reached the inside of the cave in no time. A splash was heard echoing as he pulled himself up on the smooth rock before popping the bottle open.

"How I've missed your wonderful smell and taste." Wei Ying sang as he downed the first bottle. The cave suddenly began glowing as the crystals adorning it's walls glowed making the whole cave look magical.

"Hahaha handsome guy whoever you are if I were human I would've married you a long time ago. You bring me delicous drinks everyday." His laugh was so loud it echoed and created a somewhat creepy version.

"A day of fun along side this drink is merrier than without." Wei Ying said as he tried to copy his elders who always talks in a weird poetic way. Though he never understood much about the meaning of it.

"Ahh... I can't wait for handsome guy's next visit. Maybe he might bring a lot of bottles this time." A pout made it's way to Wei Ying's lips as he finished the first bottle. He then neatly placed it along side the rest of the bottles he had collected.
