Dressed as a Man, I Became Tycoon’s Sweetheart

The first to enter the scene is an extraordinarily beautiful silhouette shrouded in mist. Her long, silver-white wavy hair cascades down like a waterfall of three thousand strands, or like blooming flowers gently wrapping around her graceful body.
Slightly turning her body, she reveals the contour of a flawless and perfect face. The mermaid ears have transformed from normal human ears to elf-like ears resembling white jade trifurcated fish fins. Her clear and pure eyes are like sea-blue gemstones, cool and azure, with sparkling shell-like adornments around them, extending to a straight nose and flowing to enticing red lips.
As the mist disperses, a large, vibrantly colored mermaid tail adorned with countless small diamonds emerges, its lines so perfect as if sculpted with precision by the hands of God. Under the bright moonlight, it shines with brilliance, mesmerizing all who behold it.
She jumps into the water, skillfully waving her beautiful mermaid tail as she swims towards the deep sea. Her charming allure, with every nod of her head and furrow of her brows, and her graceful figure, rising and falling, recalls the depictions of mermaids in books — she is an ocean’s favorite child, irresistible to all.
The filming site is silent, so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard clearly, with everyone entranced as they watch the underwater mermaid.
The director snaps himself out of his daze by lightly slapping his face.
Beautiful, so beautiful, she seems like a product of high-tech synthesis, not a real person! Moreover, she mimics the characteristics and swimming grace of a mermaid with such lifelike perfection, capturing its very essence. He initially thought they had cast a stunning and popular Asian actress, yet it turns out they found none other than the legendary Mermaid Princess herself!
He could already envision how classic the film would be after shooting, how it would garner explosive acclaim and box office success upon release.
In the future, when people mention mermaids, they will no longer be a chaotic image in their minds but rather a clear vision of Ye Xian’s figure, expressed with the most beautiful of descriptions.
After the Mermaid Ancestor transformed Gem into a mermaid, she was amazed by Gem’s unmatched beauty and her brilliantly colored tail.
“Oh, my God~”
“The legend of colors, I have ruled over the merfolk for tens of thousands of years, and I have never seen such a beautiful and exquisite tail. You truly are our master.”
“Honored master, from now on, you are no longer just the Prince of Wisenus, but our Mermaid Princess!”
That night, the sea surged with waves, mermaids leaping from the depths to glimpse their master’s radiance and marvel at the Princess’s appearance.
Gem spent a pleasant night with them, returning to the palace the next day, vowing to avenge the Evil Dragon and Vici.
Unfortunately, the Evil Dragon had already retreated to the South Sea for training, and while she had newly embraced magic, she was not fully adapted to or in command of it. The thought of silently slaying the mana-powerful Vici was but a pipe dream.
But she could gradually change Wisenus’s current state, secretly dismantle Vici’s blood covenant plan, and save her people!
Since the power fell into Vici’s hands, under his leadership, a faction of noble Princes indulging in luxury, committing all manner of nefarious deeds had arisen.
Gem remembered the Ancestor’s advice and the mermaid’s magic.
By day, she could continue to feign being a deaf-mute prince, but as night fell, with a jump into the water, she could transform into a mermaid and wield powerful magic.
Thus, the nights of Wisenus began to hold an extra gleaming hue. The Mermaid Princess traversed roofs and walls, breaking through glass, and, with her tough yet beautiful fish fins, swiftly sliced the throat of a Prince attempting to assault a young girl.
The girl, saved, was equally frightened by her magic and awed by her beauty, retreating repeatedly. But it was of no concern; the alluring voice of a mermaid’s song would give her a peaceful sleep, erasing the memory of all she had witnessed.
Gem demolished the greedy dukes’ vaults, redistributing their gold and treasures to those in need. She found the children sacrificed monthly to the Evil Dragon, sending them safely home in a cascade of colorful bubbles while suffocating the wicked inside. Gem extinguished burning churches, irrigated drought-stricken fields…
From then on, every night in the Wisenus Dynasty would witness the appearance of a charming Mermaid Princess who helped them overcome adversities and challenges, revered as a deity. Yet, curiously, come morning, they remembered nothing.
The wicked Princes concocted a new pastime—the Colosseum.
They gathered all sorts of beasts from the forest, amassing them in the Colosseum, forcing Wisenus’s loyal warriors inside to entertain themselves by watching human-beast combat.
Gem recognized that the warrior was David, the knight who had grown up with her, and by nightfall, she transformed into a mermaid to rescue him from the jaws of captivity.
She was just about to sing to make David forget everything when he knelt before her, looking up with eyes filled with admiration and reverence, “Most beautiful lady in the world, are you the legendary mermaid?”
“You’re not afraid of me?”
“Of course not, you saved me, and you’re so beautiful, I can’t help but admire you.”
Gem felt fortunate to have found a kindred spirit and soon fell into a passionate love with her knight. David became spellbound by her, even unsatisfied with only seeing her at night.
“My Princess, why don’t you come to find me during the day? I long for you so even want to be with you every moment.”
Gem: “Because we mermaids cannot be seen in sunlight.”
“Cannot be seen in sunlight? But why?”
Gem shook her head, unable to articulate a reason. “The Ancestor said, it is a taboo of our merfolk.”
But the happy days did not last long. Soon, the Evil Dragon, deprived of fresh blood, began unleashing chaos, causing Wisenus to experience an unprecedented flood. Vici discovered that his power was progressively weakening, as if opposed by a mysterious and formidable force. It wasn’t until one night when he saw David playing at the seashore with a mermaid.
The mermaid was unimaginably beautiful and her mana boundless. He could almost be certain she was the one causing all the trouble.
So he ordered David’s secret arrest, and under severe torture, David betrayed his Mermaid Princess.
Vici, after investigating, discovered that Gem was indeed the mermaid, and was furiously enraged, devising a meticulously planned scheme.
Under the veil of night, Vici gathered the citizens of Wisenus by the sea, using David to lure out Gem, proclaiming before everyone that Gem was a monster who had killed the old king and queen with his own hands, bringing the fearsome flood upon Wisenus.
Innocent Gem could not speak, powerless to defend herself. The people of Wisenus did not believe that their kind and heroic Prince could be a monster who had slain his parents.
Vici then pushed him down into the sea.
“Today we’re filming the final intense scene, the most exciting and emotional climax of the film. Everyone needs to be at their best, aiming for a flawless take! After this shot, I’ll give everyone a New Year bonus!”
“Great!!!”
The filming of the movie “Mermaid” lasted more than a month, and finally, on the night of New Year’s Eve, the final scene began. The filming location was chosen at a large outdoor Ocean Park within the Platinum Crystal Film and Television Base. Ye Xian stood beside the venue, attentively listening to the assistant director explaining the scene, while the crew members busily moved back and forth.
When everything was ready, the director sat behind the main monitor, watched as Ye Xian prepared herself emotionally by the pool, and shouted into the microphone, “Action!”
Vici pushed Gem into the sea with one palm, and at the moment of entering the water, Gem transformed into a mermaid.
“President Bo?”
“President Bo, you’re here?”
A sudden commotion arose from behind, and Zhou Lu turned her face to see the tall figure of a man getting off a Maybach with Pang Kai. She was a bit surprised, “President Bo… why are you here?”
Pang Kai pulled her aside, gritting his teeth a bit, “Nonsense, you have no idea how the CEO has been living this past month, not being able to see Ye Xian, not even a photo, if he didn’t come, he really would have gone crazy.”
Zhou Lu: “…It’s not my fault, it was because the crew didn’t allow behind-the-scenes leaks. But Sister Xian is filming the final scene today! After filming, she can go back with the CEO!”
Pang Kai, “…” He thought it’s best not to, given the CEO’s current state. If Ye Xian went with him, it would be difficult to ensure she could get out of bed and walk within a week.
“President Bo, why are you here?”
The director heard the commotion, turned around, saw Bo Tingshen, and quickly stood up warmly, but was stopped by a look from the man.
“Continue.”
“Okay!”
The assistant moved a chair over. When the man sat down in front of the main monitor screen, he casually glanced at the scene displayed on it, and at that moment, all his actions paused. His deep, dark eyes stared intently at the mermaid on the screen.
Ye Xian leaped into the water, creating beautiful splashes several meters high. Her long, silver hair spread out in the water like blooming flowers, gradually revealing a beautiful, enchanting face. Her long eyebrows relaxed, and her deep, azure eyes seemed to reflect the entire starry sea, sparkling with pearls, flowing to her straight, prominent nose bridge, and enticing, rosy lips.
This scene was a close-up shot. The underwater cameraman shot her face up close, capturing the innocence and panic, along with her anger and frustration, in her eyebrows and eyes completely. It was also breathtakingly beautiful.
Pang Kai noticed the CEO’s reaction and glanced at the monitor, almost exclaiming in surprise.
Although he had long known that Ye Xian was a woman, he never expected her to look so stunning in female attire, practically indescribable…
Her beauty was not limited to the exterior but also danced deep within her soul, seamlessly blending with the character in the play.
No wonder the CEO’s reaction was so out of the ordinary; even he couldn’t help but swallow a gulp of saliva.
After Vici pushed Gem into the water, Gem desperately tried to swim into the deeper sea to avoid being discovered as a monster by the subjects, but the furious Evil Dragon gave her no chance and flew into the sea to fight her, forcing Gem to retaliate.
This part of the filming was her fight scene with the Evil Dragon. There was no real dragon present, testing the extraordinary imagination and acting skills of the actor.
Ye Xian remained completely unaffected.
The mermaid swayed her large, beautiful, colorful tail, gracefully darting back and forth in the sea. Her long, lush silver hair wrapped around the Evil Dragon’s body, pulling out the tough dagger transformed from her fish fin, fiercely aiming at the Evil Dragon. She was thrown away and spit bubbles, blinking her eyes to confuse. The moonlight shone on her diamond-like colorful scales, its brilliance dazzling the Evil Dragon, making it unable to open its eyes…
This fight scene was spectacular, with climaxes occurring one after another, engrossing everyone in front of the monitor, tense and expecting.
At the same time, it perfectly showcased the small woman’s clear yet resilient blue eyes, her beautiful and dynamic face filled with heroism and charm, and every inch of her body seemed meticulously measured by God into perfect mermaid lines.
Every frame was an extreme enjoyment, giving the man a strong visual impact. His pitch-black eyes, as vast as the tumultuous ocean, surged with gigantic waves, water droplets forming a large impenetrable web.
Wanting to capture that colorful mermaid forever and ever, confine her in his seabed, allowing no escape.
Pang Kai unintentionally saw the man’s gaze, hot and intense, almost seemingly about to burn a hole in the screen, piercing through the person inside.
Indeed… the CEO hadn’t seen Ye Xian for more than a month, almost driven mad by his longing. When he finally saw her, she appeared in such a captivating and enchanting manner. Wasn’t that claiming the CEO’s life?
Gem and the Evil Dragon fought fiercely in the ocean for a long time, exhausted, she had no choice but to escape the seas, while the subjects of Wisenus, under Vici’s command, pursued and tracked her down.
Chased by thousands of subjects, the Evil Dragon, and Vici, taking advantage of the night, she heavily injured, escaped to an Ocean Park. Her injuries were too severe, her mana exhausted, and she could no longer move nor transform back into a human form.
In the center of the ocean, the Mermaid Ancestor cast a prophecy spell, able to see everyone’s future, except for the Prince, which remained a blank.
“All the beautiful gifts in life are secretly marked with a price.”
“The kind and brave Prince became a mermaid for the sake of their people, yet suffered betrayal by the whole world…”
The subjects of the Wisenus Dynasty brandished their swords, firmly surrounding the Ocean Park, with the Evil Dragon and Vici’s mockery overhead, and the voices of doubt and dread from the subjects all around.
The Mermaid Princess used all her strength to surface onto a reef.
Her wet, long hair clung tightly to her soft, slender waist, stained red by the blood seeping from her wounds, like blooming mandala flowers. Her colorful tail shimmered in the water, reflecting a shimmering surface, beautifully like an illusion, yet her face was deeply submerged in darkness, slightly lowered. The unique cinematography lengthened and pulled back, showcasing her incomparably tragic silhouette.
A fallen legendary siren.
The mermaid remembered when she asked the Ancestor if there was a way to become human again.
The Ancestor said: Unless you pull out each and every scale, enduring the agony of skinning and dismemberment, only then can you regain your legs and return to being human.
In the shadow, a pair of hands slowly reached out, touching the beautiful, dazzling colorful tail.
