A gentle breeze brushed against her cheek, carrying a sweet fragrance. Zhou Siyu closed her eyes, stretched out her arm, touched an arm, rolled over, and whimpered as she snuggled into Yu Wei's arms, nuzzling him like a kitten.

"Good morning." Yu Wei chuckled and gently pinched his nose. "It's time for breakfast. After breakfast, we have to go to Lingling's parent-teacher conference."

"Sleep a little longer, I'm so tired." Zhou Siyu said she was sleepy, but her eyes were darting around. She put her arms around Yu Wei's neck. "It's too far, I don't want to go. Can you tell the teacher he doesn't have any parents?"

If one plus one equals two, then Yu Ling is someone whose one plus one equals negative one. She did not inherit the high intelligence of either of them, and due to genetic defects, she is still in a half-beast form at the age of five.

Although her little ears and fluffy big tail were cute, Yu Ling was bullied a lot because her appearance was different from other children.

"How can you talk about yourself like that?" Yu Wei kissed Zhou Siyu's cheek, picked him up, and said, "You little lazybones, you're not planning to get up unless I carry you, are you?"

"Daddy, Daddy..." As soon as the door opened, two fluffy white little ears appeared in the doorway, followed by a chubby little face, and a sweet, childlike voice said, "Daddy, good morning, Daddy, good morning."

"Good morning, baby. Come here and let Daddy give you a kiss."

Yu Wei stretched out her vines, gently rolled up Yu Ling and placed her in Zhou Siyu's arms. Zhou Siyu cupped Yu Ling's face and gave her a kiss, like sucking on a jelly.

"Daddy is so amazing!" Yu Ling hugged Zhou Siyu's neck and kissed him on the cheek. "Lingling loves Daddy too, and I love Daddy Yu too."

"Really? Do you love me more or Daddy Yu more?"

"Hmm...do we really have to compare?" Yu Ling frowned, thinking for a long time. "Can I love you both the same amount?"

How many?

“So many…” Yu Ling stretched out her arms and gestured, “There are so many…”

"Really? Daddy is so touched. Daddy loves you very much too."

Zhou Siyu took the opportunity to rub Yu Ling's ears again, then turned to look at Yu Wei with a resentful expression: "You don't have cute ears, you're not as pretty as the baby."

"Why doesn't Daddy have ears?" Yu Ling tilted her head and tugged at her animal ears in distress. "Baby doesn't want ears either."

Unlike animal ears that are purely decorative, Yu Ling's animal ears are like normal human ears; she can hear sounds, and hears them very clearly.

“Because I’m not as good as Lingling, I don’t have ears.” Yu Wei placed the two of them on chairs, squatted down, and rubbed Yu Ling’s ears. “Only good people have ears and tails.”

“But everyone says Dad is the best.” Yu Ling puffed out her chest, very proud.

“That’s because no one has seen anyone more amazing than Daddy yet.” Yu Wei patted Yu Ling’s hair. “Baby will definitely become someone more amazing than Daddy in the future.”

Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, Yu Ling is an oddball, but in his eyes, Yu Ling is Yu Ling, his child, and the person he wants to protect.

After the three of them happily finished breakfast, Yu Wei and Zhou Siyu decided to take Yu Ling to the amusement park after the parent-teacher meeting, so they brought him to school as well, but didn't let him into the classroom.

Yu Ling sat in the car for a while, looking left and right, and just as she pulled a chocolate out of the snack box, she heard a scream from not far away.

His ability to locate sounds is as exceptional as his hearing; he finds the source of a sound effortlessly.

In the alleyway overflowing with sewage, rotting food mixed with piles of garbage emitted a foul stench. A head cautiously peeked out and, through the gap between the legs, saw a dirty little child.

He lay on the ground, his hand being brutally crushed by a tall, strong man, a sight that terrified Yu Ling.

The people surrounding the child were all very tall, and the one in the lead, who was extremely fat, was lewdly saying, "It's only right that the son pays for the father's debts. Selling you to the black market will at least bring back some interest."

The child was in so much pain that he was about to faint, and he didn't even have the strength to cry out. He looked at the ground in despair.

"Stop it, all of you!" Yu Ling shouted, hands on her hips. "I've already called the police. If you don't leave... ouch..."

Yu Ling lost his balance and fell flat on his face. The others burst into laughter, "Where did this little brat come from? He can't even walk properly and he dares to act like a hero."

"Let him go right now, the police will be here soon... Hey, hey, let me go... let me go..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yu Ling's feet slowly left the ground. A man with dreadlocks grabbed his collar and lifted him into the air. "Hey, boss, this kid is clean-cut and looks like he comes from a wealthy family. If we kidnap him and sell him for money, we could probably live off him for generations."

"Pah, you bad guy! Let me go right now, or else... or else..."

"What else? Let your dad beat me up?" The dreadlocked man slapped Yu Ling's butt. "Be a good girl and I'll contact your family to send money..."

Yu Ling, who was being spanked for the first time, burst into tears, her cries echoing through the sky. Between sobs, she cried, "My dad... has never hit me... Waaaaah..."

"Keep your voice down, you bastard! If you cry again, I'll..."

What do you want to do with him?

A deep voice sounded, and blood-red vines spread along the wall, turning the ground beneath their feet. Before they could react, thick red vines rose from the ground, instantly binding them together and completely sealing the mouths of those who were spewing excrement.

Dreadlocks was surrounded by vines and was so frightened that he sat down on the ground. Yu Ling took the opportunity to bite Dreadlocks' hand. Dreadlocks cried out in pain and just as he let go, Yu Ling was quickly swept away by the vines and fell into a warm embrace.
