Volume 1 Chapter 1 Part1

"Today’s news report. At 3 a.m. this morning, a headless corpse of a woman was found in 台中市 (Taichung City). According to the initial investigation..."

At 6 in the morning, located in one of the garden villas of Taichung City, the news was being broadcasted on the television in one of the households.

Just like every other family, in the morning there would be the sound of changing television channels, from beauty channel, exercise channel, cartoon channel, and more, until the television returned to its original channel, broadcasting the news again.

At the kitchen counter separating the living room and the kitchen, the gas stove was turned on with a ’ka’ sound, followed by the sizzling sound of the oil as it was poured into the pan on top of the stove. Cracking an egg into the pan, under the high heat from the stove, the egg was slowly cooked into a golden omelette.

The timer on the toaster ticked away and with a ’ding’, the pleasant smell of the toasted bread weaved through the air.

Just as the person who was busy cooking turned around to put the bread on a plate, an angry voice cut through, protesting.

"I don’t agree!"

At 6 in the morning, located in the thirdly developed garden villa, was a detached house with a door plate "虞" (yú) hung outside the gates. Despite the early morning, a family argument was raging in the house.

Although, the argument was currently one-sided as the other party completely ignored the angry protests while continuing his job at hand: "阿因 (Ah Yin), your dad and second dad have already decided. If you disagree now, be careful of how your second dad will torture you." Standing in front of the gas stove, a man with short hair and a baby face, shook his hand and the golden omelette did a beautiful flip and landed perfectly back into the pan, the oil continued to crackle on the side of the omelette.

"That was a decision made purely by the both of you! If you two want to bring someone home to stay, at least let me know beforehand!" Arguing in the early morning for the sake of defending his own territory is the only son of the Yu household, 虞因 (Yu Yin). He pointed to the unknown boy seated in the living room and complained unhappily: "I am also a member of this family, what you two have done is very disrespectful to this third member of the family eh!"

Yu Yin, a second year university student, currently studying at 理东科技大学设计学院 1 (Li Dong University of Technology, School of Design) located in the city. By nature, Yu Yin likes to play and make friends, especially female friends. He is rather well-liked and popular amongst people of his ’type’, almost everyone within a hundred miles radius knows him... but this is not the point!

With a mop of curly orange hair, Yu Yin did his usual morning routine when he woke up this morning, brushing his teeth and washing his face, then heading down to the kitchen to wait for his breakfast to be made. However, the moment he stepped off the last step of the staircase into the living room on the first floor, he doubted his eyes for a brief moment.

There was an unknown little boy, appearing to be underage, sitting in the living room, reading an original edition book which Yu Yin could not understand. When Yu Yin spoke to the boy, the boy made no response, so he dashed into the kitchen to ask about the unknown boy. He got his answer... the unknown boy was actually adopted by his two fathers!

Immediately, he protested.

"Adopting a kid all of a sudden, aren’t you two being a little too ridiculous ah?" Usually, when his two fathers brought other beings 2 back for a temporary stay, Yu Yin could close one eye. However, in the span of one day, to suddenly adopt a little boy, isn’t this a little too much? The more he thought about it, the angrier Yu Yin got. He felt insignificant in the eyes of his fathers as his fathers did not care about his opinion whenever they made a decision.

After a short moment of silence, Yu Tong spoke up, "Sorry for that, Ah Yin is just a little rash. Little Yin, you have to be a little understanding, Ah Yin didn’t mean any harm."

Purple pair of eyes looked at Yu Tong, then the boy slowly nodded his head.

Yu Tong stretched out his hand and ruffled the boy’s head, "Don’t worry, I believe you will be able to overcome this obstacle and speak once again."

The boy stared at Yu Tong silently before holding his bowl of soup and turned away.

Letting out a breath, Yu Tong stretched his back.

"Alright, let’s work hard today!"
