Once upon a time, a beautiful princess in a land far, far away wanted to be rescued from a castle that was guarded by a dragon.

Oh, wait a minute that was “Shrek”

Ok, so maybe it wasn’t a castle. It was an orphanage. But the walls were fortified with love. And she wasn’t actually guarded by a dragon, but she was born in a land far, far away and Xuwen is considered the dragon’s tail of China and dragons are revered by its people.

And to me, she is my Princess and we rescued each other. And we traveled a long journey home to a cheering crowd of loyal subjects.

And everyone is living happily ever after.

Love at first sight
