In the corner of a cafe, Duan Xubai was staring down the 108th blind date his family had arranged for him.
After Duan Xubai finished reciting a passionate declaration of true love, the other person's expression finally cracked a little.
Blind date: "So you're saying you actually have an alpha you've been in love with for years, and he's Shen Shu, your sworn enemy since childhood?"
Duan Xubai: "That's right."
Blind date: "But he isn't in the country."
Duan Xubai: "Distance isn't a problem."
Blind date: "He hasn't come back in six years."
Duan Xubai: "Time doesn't matter."
Blind date: "Are you serious?"
Duan Xubai: "Love can overcome anything!"
Duan Xubai quietly caught his breath, figuring that was probably enough acting for one day.
Just as he was about to make a run for it, the other person suddenly held out a phone.
A call that had been going on for ten minutes was still connected on the screen, and the person on the other end happened to be Duan Xubai's long-unseen nemesis, Shen Shu.
A voice he couldn't forget even in eight hundred years came through the phone, hateful as ever.
"What a coincidence. My long-unseen..."
"Boyfriend."
