This book, in a witty and humorous style, narrates the unbelievable, strange yet sincere emotional entanglements between me, Brother Xi, Madman, college student Xiao Ran, Hao Hao, Xiao Zhen, and Japanese international student Yoko. I met Yoko during a business trip to Xi'an; when Yoko came to Shanghai for her internship, she was taken away by Brother Xi. After I returned to Shanghai, I met Xiao Ran at a bar along with her friends Xiao Zhen and Hao Hao. It was love at first sight for me when I saw Xiao Ran, but upon learning that she had been deceived, impregnated, and then abandoned by her first boyfriend, I nearly went mad. I lashed out at Xiao Zhen and forcibly possessed her.

From then on, me, Brother Xi, Madman, Xiao Ran, Xiao Zhen, Hao Hao, and Yoko all became intertwined in each other's lives, staging a series of touching, shocking, or passionate episodes of life. Meanwhile, Yoko came to China as an international student with a mission: to find someone. When the truth was revealed, the dramatic switch in identities between Yoko and Xiao Ran almost floored me, and the deeply moving story of deep affection from decades ago also profoundly touched my heart.
