Summary:
If there was one thing Tian knew for sure, it was this: there’s no such thing as fate binding two or more people together. Or if there is, it only exists in folklore and fairy tales. Except that now Tian has one around his wrist. He’s pretty sure he’s going crazy because Red Strings of Fate aren’t real, right?

Or are they?
