All his friends said Xu Sanbai had a handsome face, and maybe he'd suffered too many heartbreaks in his past life, so in this one he'd sealed his heart in concrete and turned it to ironwood.
And he had a vicious tongue, too.
Third Young Master Xu scoffed. No one could understand the king's lonely pride!
Then one day, at a private gathering arranged by a mutual friend, Xu San met someone. He was instantly smitten, set ablaze, and couldn't help passionately confessing on the spot and asking for his contact details. He gave everyone a live demonstration of an iron tree blooming.
Yes, Xu San fell in love with Li Qinglan at first sight.
The whole room erupted.
The person being confessed to wore a mocking, faintly amused expression.
His friend nearly ripped Xu San's sleeve off. Gritting his teeth, he whispered, "Have you gone crazy? Back then, he confessed to you, and you said in front of everyone that you'd rather like a dog than him. Don't you remember?"
Xu San: "...What the hell?"
Me? Did I really? When did that happen?

*Just as Xu San fell into the river of love, Li Qinglan had climbed out on the other side.
