Plant plum trees in winter

Ade has lived in an incense burner for over a thousand years, her days spent sleeping. Longing for the outside world she hears about from her fairy friends, her wish is finally granted when a man brings her home, releasing her from the seal. Ade, tears streaming, vows to repay her savior to the fullest extent.

Qin Yu, known as the cold and ruthless Third Master Qin of Kyoto, finds his life upended when strange occurrences plague his bedroom after he places an antique incense burner given to him as a New Year's gift there. Chaos ensues, with items displaced and unexplained puddles of water; he even senses something in his bed while half-asleep.

One afternoon, Qin Yu comes home early to find a young girl cleaning up spilled milk. The girl, her black hair cascading, her skin porcelain, is startled by his return and tries to flee. Upon being caught and questioned by Qin Yu, she timidly speaks of repaying her debt.

To Qin Yu's amusement, she lists her belongings: pearls, antiques, even her savings. None of these interest Qin Yu, who instead sweeps her into his arms and suggests a more personal way of repaying the debt. Terrified, the girl's beautiful fish tail is revealed.

The Tycoon's Enchanted Mermaid

Ah Da was a little confused and continued to ask Wei Lan, "But if the auction sells flawed items to others, aren't they afraid that people will find out and come back to settle accounts?"


"In any auction, three parties are involved: the auction house, the buyer, and the seller. The goods are provided by the seller. Wanrong is just a middleman collecting venue fees. If there are issues, at most they'll earn a reputation for poor quality control. Most of the responsibility lies with the buyer and the seller," Qin Yu spoke indifferently. "Wanrong's approach has the benefit of low risk, but the downside is a poor reputation. However, it's not a significant issue, as most of those who are deceived aren't genuinely passionate about antiques."


Wei Lan snapped his fingers and praised, "I didn't expect Third Young Master to have such a deep understanding of the antique trade. Maybe you should get involved too."
