Have you ever been stopped in your tracks by someone so good-looking that you just had to talk to them? That's exactly what happened to Xiaohongshu user Xian Xian during her journey along a highway in Xinjiang, China.

While driving, she stumbled upon a striking young man running a roadside grilled meat stall. She quickly dubbed him 'Xinjiang’s Edison Chen,' not just for his looks but for the magnetic charm that seemed to radiate from him.

Making an impromptu stop for food, Xian Xian had a hidden agenda—flirting with the stall owner. She kicked off the conversation with a compliment about his looks, to which he charmingly replied, 'You’re good-looking too.' Surprisingly, he’s 23 years old and hails from the Uyghur ethnic group.

Curious about his name, Xian Xian asked, only to be met with his playful response: 'My name is too long; you won’t remember it.' But when she inquired if he had a girlfriend, his answer took a flirty turn: 'It’s you.' A bold move!

As the conversation flowed, he stepped out from behind the stall to keep chatting, admitting with a giggle, 'I’m getting a little shy.' When Xian Xian questioned if he found her attractive, he didn’t hold back: 'Of course.'

In a twist of culture and romance, when she asked if Uyghurs date outside their ethnicity, his reply was instant and flirty: 'Of course we do—especially if they’re as good-looking as you!'

Eventually, the handsome stall owner revealed his full name—A Bu Du Ha Li Ke - A Bu Du Nai Bi—before laughingly suggesting she simply call him 'A Bu.' This quirky exchange left viewers swooning.

As the video concluded, Xian Xian pointed out another handsome man behind the stall, exclaiming, 'This young guy is really handsome too!'

In her post, Xian Xian couldn’t help but gush over her close encounter with Xinjiang’s dashing Uyghur boy, adding, 'Oh my gosh, this young fellow is so cute!'

While many netizens agreed with Xian Xian’s assessment of A Bu’s good looks, some debated his resemblance to the famous actor Edison Chen, and others pointed out her bold flirting style. Still, one thing was clear—A Bu seemed more than willing to keep the fun going!
