Me: male, 187 cm tall.
A staunch materialist.
I've worked as a professional haunted-house sleep tester for three years.
The sleep-testing service may include, but is not limited to:
1. At midnight, shower in the bathroom with the lights off, brush your hair in front of the mirror, or lock yourself in a room for ten minutes.
2. At one in the morning, get down on the floor with the lights off and check for anything unusual under the bed or behind the door.
3. At two in the morning, check the balcony and basement for anything unusual.
4. At three in the morning, look through the peephole for five minutes, then check the hallway, elevator, and stairs for anything unusual.
5. At four in the morning, light a candle in each corner of the room with the lights off. If anything unusual happens, blow them out and relight them until they burn down completely.
6. Record anything unusual at each time.
7. Mark any particularly dangerous areas.
8. Record any unusual physical symptoms.
Prices start at 1,444.44 yuan per night. Travel expenses are reimbursed for locations more than 20 kilometers away.
The entire sleep test can be livestreamed. Additional fees will be charged as appropriate.

"Hello, is this Huan Ge Professional Haunted-House Sleep Testing?"
A man's voice answered, flat and cold. "Speaking."
"I'd like to pay extra to watch you sleep."

The first time he met her, she was a client who had paid a high price to watch his sleep test livestream.
She covered her eyes at the other end of the phone, shrieking at the top of her lungs from time to time. She was so loud it made his head feel like it was shaking in an earthquake, and he couldn't sleep all night.
The second time he met her was at a haunted villa in the suburbs.
She had transformed into a fellow haunted-house sleep tester.
They lay side by side on the bed, silently waiting in the dark for the supernatural presence rumored to target married couples.
He grabbed her wrist. "Who are you, really?"

Not sure if it's supernatural, but it's definitely a romance disguised as a werewolf story.
It probably won't be scary. I'll do my best to make it funny.
Theme: May you sleep soundly and sweetly.
