鱼怎么爱水水却要煮鱼
[yú zĕn me ài shuĭ shuĭ què yào zhŭ yú]
In Chinese folklore, fish cannot live out of water. So, the phrase seems paradoxical where water, crucial for fish survival, ends up boiling the fish. It implies ironic twists and complexities in relationships or circumstances where something supposedly essential turns detrimental.
