The Most Bewitching

At an auction, Mu Jun saw the person he had been searching for over many years once again: Gu Yuan.

The young man looked cool and reserved, quiet and silent, as if he had forgotten everything that happened in the past.

Mu Jun seemed calm on the surface, but inside, a storm was already raging. He used a deal to make the young man stay by his side, wanting to find out where he had been all these years and why he had come to the auction.

The young man had changed so much. He was nothing like the person Mu Jun remembered.

He would often stare out the window, lost in thought, confusion flickering in his eyes.

For no apparent reason, wounds would appear on his body, but he refused to say a word about them.

He disliked this world and even forced himself to eat...

He was like a snowflake, as if he might vanish without a trace the very next moment.

Mu Jun didn’t know what he had been through all these years, so he tried to hide all his sharp edges and approach him carefully, giving him every bit of tenderness he had.

He wanted to help Gu Yuan break free from whatever had kept him imprisoned, and teach the young man to love the world again.

But they were no ordinary people. They possessed a power known as illusion, a power capable of ensnaring the mind.

But was that a blessing?

Mu Jun had never decided, until at last he understood: it was like a curse. Those who possessed it were destined to suffer forever.

Illusion and reality, truth and lies.

Within an illusion, nothing is more beguiling.
