As We Fall: Please Don't Leave Me or Let Go of My Shaking Hand

When Bai Huali's older sister decided to jump off a cliff in order to join her dead husband due to the pressure of being a new sect leader, Bai Huali finds herself full and busy with the child her sister left behind for her to take care of.

With no time to mourn or grieve for her family's tragedy and her sister's death, Bai Huali finds herself becoming the new sect leader and drowning herself in immense office reports and meetings. However, becoming a sect leader comes with a price as Bai Huali had to conceal her gender and take on the role of a male.

With family members gone, a clan exterminated, and a sect with only a maximum of five people, can Bai Huali bring prosperity back to the merpeople?

Follow Bai Huali as she has to adapt to living on two legs daily, sleeping in the waters with a tail, and take care of a non-stop wailing baby.

"Sect Leader Bai, I see that you have your hands currently preoccupied, may I assist you?" the beaming smile of the other leader had Bai Huali itching to smack it off.

Knowing that what she did would not deter the man, Bai Huali simply waved him off and told him to help with the reports.

Caught off-guard, Bai Huali blinked before feeling something brush past her lips.

"Did you just...?"

The other sect leader leaned back and said nothing as he smiled brightly and headed to her office to work on the paperwork leaving Bai Huali standing there.

"Jiujiu!" A quiet voice called out making her look down to the owner's voice. "Why is your face so red?"

Bai Huali only looked away as to not show her nephew her current appearance.
