Mother must have also endured the same psychological torture he's now facing, which is why she never let him learn to swim from a young age and even had him take the Life-Death Reversal Pill early on to control the mermaid genes within him.

Zhong Lingling was sound asleep.
Xiang Yimo tiptoed into the bedroom and, after changing into his pajamas, lay down beside Zhong Lingling.
Zhong Lingling, who had been sleeping soundly, was awakened by Xiang Yimo's embrace and the strong smell of smoke. She opened her eyes vigilantly.

"Who's that?" Zhong Lingling was instantly alert.
"It's me, I'm back!"
