We were classmates from preschool through high school, but barely ever talked. We only grew closer in our senior year, and it all started with one simple question: “Could you read that novel to me?” The answer was, “Of course I can.”

We’ve been together for almost 8 years. Our first year was long-distance, but we made it! We’re different in many ways, but we’ve learned to enjoy those differences and always try to understand each other better.

We got engaged on May 3, 2026, surrounded by our families and relatives. It was such a fun and memorable day for both of us and also the first time we got to see our parents wearing traditional cheongsam and changshan!
