The blinding, sea blue sky greeted his vision.

And it stings his eyesight.

This feeling of helplessness invaded Shen Hao wholely, and he felt it crept to him more when he saw those bite marks on that man's hand.

"...I-I--"

His feeble voice was silenced by a small smile from the newcomer in front of him. Those eyes that seemed to seep and scan him thoroughly are beautiful, Shen Hao thought.

Something inside Shen Hao's chest seemed to ache whenever he sees those dark eyes. He unknowingly took a hold of his pounding chest, and his face turned reddish as tomato.

The man suddenly reached out his bit-ridden hand and touched Shen Hao's forehead. His touch feels...insanely warm, and the poor adolescent wants more of that warm. Yet when he came to his senses, it also felt eerily cold.

Shen Hao looked at the man with doubtful eyes.

"I will be your guardian from now on."

Four weeks have passed since Shen Hao was released from that prison, his heart felt light as if a heavy burden was released.

This time, the wheelchair that restricted his movements was no more, only a healthy boy that seemed to look beautiful more and more if you look at him.

Following behind the lively boy is a man clad in black tuxedo, his stature tall and strong. His black hair is slicked back, and his eyes are cold but profound.

Familiar, Shen Hao muttered when the man first watched him closely.

What's more oddly familiar is the way the man took care of Shen Hao, and that hurts Shen Hao's chest more.

He was admitted at a private school, his new parents too well-off for Shen Hao to be problematic regarding money matters.

Looking at the blackboard full of mathematical symbols, the poor boy felt his head ache.

"Sit down class."

And that familiar voice.

"I will be your new teacher for the whole new semester year, please take care of me."

And the man wrote him name on the blackboard.

'Shen Dao'

And the seated student can't help it but smile at the new teacher in front of them.
