Yue Lao is the god of matchmaking who is tasked with tying all manners of gods, spirits, demons, beasts, and humans together with their fated significant others with the Red String of Fate. It is a job that allows no room for errors. Awaking from a drunken slumber, Yue Lao finds himself in a peach blossom grove with no recollection of the night before, but more importantly, he finds a Red String tied around his wrist. On the other end of the string is the equally drowsy and confused warrior god Er Lang Shen. "Erlang Shen! Why did I wake up with the Red Cord fastened to your hand and mine?! ..Did I fail doing my job?" Neither of them know what happened the night before or how they ended up here, but Yue Lao doesn’t care. He has a goal, and that goal is to find a way to untie this red string as fast as possible, come hell or high water..The story begins with two male deities waking up to find themselves bound with a red thread.
..Does the red thread of fate make people fall in love? or do they get selected by the God of Matchmaking because they are in love?
