At twenty-four,
Someone in the know approached Lu Ning, hoping to use him to present a collector's-edition watch to Mr. Chen, the “backer” behind him, as a favor.
Lu Ning refused,
because he knew that his real relationship with Mr. Chen wasn't what other people assumed.
He was merely Mr. Chen's “emotional comfort.” Ever since a fleeting glance in a hospital corridor two years ago, he had unwillingly taken on this awkward identity, known to very few.
They had simply ended up together by chance. How could anyone call that closeness or a favor?

At eighteen,
A classmate from the same school brought him a wristwatch, hoping to befriend Lu Ning and asking him to pass it along.
After the classmate left, the watch was thrown into the trash.
Its elegant, delicate form looked completely out of place amid the filth around it, just like their two worlds.
But this was all Lu Ning's own fault.
A cold, malicious smile crossed his face.
Since you chose to force your way into my life, then you'll stay by my side forever.
The “white moonlight” in everyone else's eyes would become the first thing he ever claimed as “his alone.”

Modern alternate universe! Trashy melodrama, pseudo-replacement trope (pseudo!), coercive possession, and rekindled love.
A note before reading: It's melodramatic and not well written, but it's just my thing. If it's not yours, run for the hills!
