Song Ning was hit by a car. After the agony passed, he realized he might have landed in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
The world had grown huge. He looked down at himself... Hmm, a plush teddy bear.
He figured out what was going on. This wasn't Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. There was no Red Queen chasing him around to chop off his head.
But it was even more terrifying than Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, because the body he was in belonged to his ex-boyfriend: a teddy bear.
Who knew why the cold-hearted Zhou Kedu would own a fluffy teddy bear like this?
Song Ning was furious. He was the vindictive sort: if someone made him miserable, he would make them even more miserable. As for an ex-boyfriend, if he couldn't scare the daylights out of you, he'd lose.
Have you seen Annabelle? From today on, his name was Ning-belle!

Zhou Kedu was unusually sensitive to his surroundings. He could immediately notice anything out of place, from a painting hanging crooked to a crease in a napkin that wasn't at a 45-degree angle. And the thing causing trouble wasn't even trying to hide. He discovered that the teddy bear in his home had come to life.
He didn't believe in gods or ghosts, and he wasn't afraid of monsters. All fear came from not having enough firepower. Just as he was about to have someone come over and clean up the mess, he heard the little bear say through the surveillance system, "You dog of a Zhou Kedu, I'll scare you to death!"
"..." It was Song Ning's voice.
He wondered if he was so lovesick that he was going crazy.

Song Ning's haunting was underway, but it never seemed to work.
This bastard's got nerves of steel? Song Ning wondered.
He failed to scare Zhou Kedu and nearly got scared to death himself. What is wrong with you? You're a grown man, why are you playing with a teddy bear? Giving the bear a bath? Dressing it up?
Get away from me! Let go of the little bear's hand! Stop burying your face in its tummy!

After taking over the family business, Zhou Kedu carried out a decisive plan to clean up its public image. No one could threaten his position anymore.
A friend joked, "Now you'll finally have time to think about getting married, right?"
Zhou Kedu gave no clear answer.
His friend studied his impassive expression. "Man, I really don't know what kind of person could ever catch your eye. Say, have you ever liked anyone?"
The friend hadn't expected an answer, but Zhou Kedu said, "Yes."
"Then why don't you go after them?!"
"I can't catch him anymore." Zhou Kedu watched Song Ning change girlfriends over and over, smiling so brightly. There was no point in disturbing him again.
He could just watch him. That was enough.

1. There are no girlfriends. They have only ever had each other.
2. Probably sweet with a hint of angst, with an old love rekindled.
