Cen Jiu'an had managed to stay single through sheer ability for twenty-one years, but the moment he saw Luo Xu, he declared himself utterly smitten.
He took it in stride and drew on years of accumulated theoretical knowledge, racking his brains until he managed to write a love letter:
A Xu, you're so cute, and you're such a great person. I really like you!
His friends were dumbfounded by this sudden development. "Dude, calm down!"
Cen Jiu'an: "I can't calm down! We're fated to be together! Made for each other! A perfect match!"
He wouldn't listen to a word. He sent flowers, asked him out, and made a grand show of declaring his love.
After Luo Xu accepted his confession, Cen Jiu'an was overjoyed, convinced he'd won his wife over through his own efforts.
That was until he happened to visit Luo Xu's house and discovered the sketchbooks the other had treasured in his study.
Every drawing, every page, was of him, from childhood to adulthood.
Damn, his wife was a prophet all along!
Luo Xu's unrequited love had lasted eight years, ever since adolescence.
He had watched the other from afar in silence, never daring to confess.
Over those eight years, he had drawn Cen Jiu'an's profile in his mind again and again, and even "happened" to attend the same university.
As he watched Cen Jiu'an fumble his way through courting him, his heart softened, and he carefully treasured that "terrible" love letter under his pillow.
"A Xu, you and I... So it wasn't love at first sight after all!"
Later, Cen Jiu'an finally figured it out and rushed over to him, looking all wronged. "How could you deceive me..."
The corners of Luo Xu's mouth lifted. Before he could speak, a fluffy head leaned toward him. "No, no, that just means my wife is clever."
