"I bought his dusk with a piece of candy and sold the rest of his life for a sum of money."
Seventeen-year-old Mu Chen has two secrets: first, he is the son of a mistress, and lives with his father's neglect and mother's domestic violence; second, when he passes by the orphanage every evening, he secretly looks at a boy with special eyes.
The boy named Xiao Jin had an amber left eye and a gray-blue right eye, as if he had the entire dusk in his pupil. Seven-year-old Xiao Jin cowered under the bullying. It was the first candy that Mu Chen handed him, allowing him to taste the first sweetness of life.
Seven years later, two abandoned souls met by the wall at dusk. Mu Chen became the only light in Xiao Jin's life, and Xiao Jin became Mu Chen's reason to continue living. They agreed that after Muchen graduated from university, they would take Xiao Jin away to a place where there would be no harm.
But fate revealed its price when Mu Chen was twenty-four years old.
My mother is seriously ill and the medical bills are astronomical. Just when Mu Chen was desperate, a group of men in black found him - Xiao Jin was not lost, but a young master who escaped from the business empire called "Xiao Family". The family gave him two choices: a life-saving hush money, or an "accident" that would allow the mother and son to disappear quietly.
Mu Chen tremblingly signed, exchanging the rest of Xiao Jin's life for his mother's life.
On the day Xiao Jin was escorted back to the wealthy family, Mu Chen stood in the rain and watched the eyes that were once full of dusk extinguish little by little. The boy's last words were saying: "Even you betrayed me."
Ten years later, Mu Chen finally paid off his debt of conscience and became a top architectural designer in the industry. He joined the "Jinchen Group" that he dreamed of, but on the first day he found that the man in the president's office was looking at him coldly with a pair of heterochromatic eyes.
The left eye is amber, the right eye is gray-blue.
Xiao Jin is no longer the boy who needed protection. He is the ruler of the business empire and Mr. Xiao, who is rumored to be ruthless. And Mu Chen became an insignificant employee in his newly acquired company.
"Long time no see, Mu Chen." Xiao Jin put down the acquisition contract in his hand, his voice was like a knife tempered by ice, "Tell me, whose turn is it to set the price now?"
A redemption that begins at dusk, a reunion that ends with betrayal. When the hush money deadline has expired, can the trafficked dusk redeem two broken hearts?
——We once exchanged glimmers of light in the deepest darkness, but had to put a price on each other on the scale of fate.
Intention: Two-way torture of betrayal
