My Lover's Gray Eyes

【Ruthless, untouchable top × devoted, loyal bottom】 Cheng Zhou made three wishes in his life. At eleven, his luck hit rock bottom. On his very first trip out with his little brother, he was kidnapped and sold. As the road jolted beneath him, he squeezed his eyes shut and wished that if he could survive, he would do anything. When he opened his eyes, a battered boy reached out to him and told him his wish had come true. He was given a new lease on life, and he never forgot those gray eyes. In his second year of high school, the boy, now jaded and adrift, saw that same boy again at school. His gray eyes shone brightly, a singular splash of brilliance amid the teeming crowd. Cheng Zhou scrambled over to him, barely catching the other boy's passing glance, then tucked it away to savor for years. At that same moment, his goal in life became clear: to become someone worthy and stand by his side. After graduating from college and entering the workforce, Cheng Zhou schemed and waited for a long time until he finally “ran into” the man at the company. He had thought several times that he had him in the bag, only for him to slip away again. Nervously, Cheng Zhou presented the ring he had carefully chosen, but the other man only smiled and closed the ring box. With a sharp click, Cheng Zhou stared into those gray eyes and made his third wish. If that was what it took to keep him by his side, he was willing to use any means he had once disdained. *An alternate universe. A slow start. An unconventional charmer.
