Chen Yuan had been good-looking since he was a child — fair-skinned with delicate features, he spoke in such a soft manner that he was almost like a pretty girl. He was quite likable in the early days.
Regrettably, his father was a gambler, his mother was an alcoholic, and both were idle. Their days grew poorer and poorer.
What to do when there is no money for alcohol and gambling? Sell household items. What to do when all the items are sold out? Sell their son.
After selling him three times, they could no longer find a buyer.
This is because Chen Yuan was very smart from a young age and had an astonishing memory. He always managed to sneak back home — the people who bought him did not treat him well, and there was even one buyer who was a sadist and tortured him relentlessly.
Even though his parents were not much better, it was preferable to being with the buyers.
When they no longer could sell their son, Chen Yuan's parents began resorting to illicit activities.
