A cacophony of voices reached his ears.

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

"Little Tae, don't be scared. Mommy will take you to the hospital right away!"

Kim Tae-min

"No need, Mommy. Although Brother's dog is fierce and the wound hurts, I'm sure he didn't mean to bring it home," said the voice filled with a soothing tea-like quality.

Taehyung, who was initially groggy, was instantly roused by this voice, though his mind remained shrouded in a fog, preventing him from fully waking up.

Then, the initial female voice spoke again, this time with a heavy tone:

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

"Why do you keep bringing everything home? That stray dog should have been gotten rid of long ago."

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

The remark was clearly aimed at Taehyung. As an afterthought, the woman's voice softened, laced with disdain: "Don't bring your old habits in here."

Lee Taehyung

Taehyung heard his own voice explaining, "Tannie isn't a stray dog; I only brought him back with your permission. He's very old and has no teeth left, he can't bite anyone..."

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

Before he could finish, the woman's voice rose sharply, "You dare to talk back? Your brother's wound is fake?"

Lee Taehyung

Taehyung continued his explanation, "Tannie doesn't have canine teeth, he couldn't have inflicted such an injury."

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

"What are you implying? You're saying your brother pretended to be hurt?"

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

"Taehyung, I've told you many times, don't even think about getting your brother out of here, right?"

As soon as the woman finished speaking, a sobbing sound followed from the one addressed as "Little Tae."

This dream again!

Taehyung was so furious that he nearly spat out blood.

Fueled by anger, his consciousness seemed to break through some barrier, gradually regaining clarity.

Blinding light appeared before his eyes, not the natural sunlight but rather, the dazzling chandeliers of a luxurious setting.

Crystal chandeliers scattered delicate light, reflecting on the creamy matte tiles, turning the night into a shimmering spectacle.

Despite being nighttime, it was as radiant as daylight.

The entire villa reeked of wealth, shimmering with an ethereal glow.

Taehyung took a deep breath.

It had been a long time since he dreamt of the Kim family's decor in such vivid detail.

His body still felt somewhat disobedient.

Taehyung lifted his gaze to the two people seated on the sofa.

First, the lady with an assertive tone.

The lady was young and exuded elegance. Despite being at an age where women typically experience menopause, she appeared well-cared for and spared from the typical turmoil of hormonal imbalances and life's struggles that often drove others to desperation.

There was an illusionary ease about her that made one think she would be amenable to conversation.

The lady held the wrist of the person beside her with utmost care.

Sitting next to her was a young man who appeared to be a university student.

His black hair was sleek, and his skin was fair. He wore an ordinary light-colored plaid shirt that didn't reveal its brand or fabric at first glance. However, the stitching on the cuffs and the intricate detailing betrayed a refined elegance and exclusivity.

Taehyung's chest heaved again.

These two individuals.

One was Taehyung's biological mother.

The other was the adopted son who had taken over Taehyung's identity.

At the age of four, Taehyung had gone missing in a minor landslide.

Upon being rescued, he had developed a fever, erasing all memories of his family, and was subsequently sent to an orphanage.

Although he couldn't recall his family's identity, Taehyung had always firmly believed that his family loved him deeply and would surely find him.

Upon finally securing a university admission and reuniting with his family, Taehyung discovered that in the year he went missing, they had adopted a son.

The adopted son was around the same age as him, with an outgoing and innocent disposition.

No one wished to dwell on the pain of losing a child, let alone invest time and effort into searching for a lost orphan like finding a needle in a haystack.

With their family's void now filled, the Kim family quickly forgot about their lost youngest son.

They bestowed Taehyung's name, "Kim Tae-min," upon this adoptive child.

Not only did the adopted son take his place, but he also inherited the name that was rightfully Taehyung's.

Thus, the person closest to Taehyung in this world abandoned him without a second thought.

Only Taehyung stubbornly held onto that name.

Back then, when he had gone missing, he couldn't even write.

Vaguely, he recalled being referred to as "Little Tae," yet the recorder had mistakenly written it down as "Taehyung."

It wasn't until Taehyung was found that he realized he had suddenly become an impostor posing as Kim Tae-min.

At first, Taehyung was delighted and willingly embraced the identity of Kim Tae-min.

Having grown up without any close family, he yearned for more kinship and never once rejected the notion of being Kim Tae-min, the adopted son of the Kim family.

However, the contrasting treatment within the Kim family left Taehyung utterly bewildered.

Ch-2: Green Tea's Charm

Out of concern that he had grown up in poverty and might get into trouble with money, the Kim family not only refused to give him pocket money but also made him finance his university education through student loans.

Yet Kim Tae-min's monthly allowance started in the hundreds of thousands.

For fear that Kim Tae-min might feel ostracized and become saddened, his household registration was not transferred back to the Kim family, nor was his identity disclosed.

Kim Tae-min remained the adored young master of the Kim family, while Taehyung was nobody.

After being missing for fifteen years, Taehyung finally returned to the home that was rightfully his.

Surprisingly, everyone in the family – his father, mother, eldest brother, and second brother – were all worried that Kim Tae-min might be saddened by his return.

Taehyung felt like a culprit just at the thought of causing the slightest frown on Kim Tae-min's face.

Since he had come back to the Kim family, strange incidents kept happening to Kim Tae-min for no apparent reason.

He would either trip accidentally or get scalded by hot water.

All unrelated to Taehyung, yet when the family rushed to comfort him, Kim Tae-min didn't need to do anything but glance at Taehyung with a cautious look, and he would be showered with blame.

From initial confusion, Taehyung gradually turned angry and obsessive.

He repeatedly tried to explain himself to his family, only to be ignored.

However, aware of his family's deep affection for Kim Tae-Min, Taehyung never directed any resentment towards hem throughout it all.

After witnessing their unjustified favoritism, he unconsciously began emulating Kim Tae-Min's behavior.

He emulated Kim Tae-Min's fashion sense.

But Kim Tae-Min's wardrobe was filled with cashmere, known as the "soft gold," whereas Taehyung couldn't even afford ordinary wool.

He tried to replicate Kim Tae-Min's gentle demeanor and refinement.

Yet, Kim Tae-Min's personality had been cultivated over a decade with wealth, while Taehyung was just an orphan who grew up in an orphanage.

In the end, Taehyung became more like a cheap imitation.

One day, during a dispute, Taehyung was pushed into a swimming pool by Kim Tae-Min in the middle of winter, right before everyone's eyes.

However, his closest family members merely brushed it off with a casual remark:

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

"Why weren't you more careful? Thankfully, it didn't involve little tae."

The desperate Taehyung, striving for familial affection, suddenly saw things clearly.

He realized that all his efforts were in vain.

He would never outshine Kim Tae-min.

Completely defeated, Taehyung left the Kim family to live an independent life, resuming his former tranquil and solitary existence.

This tranquility lasted for only half a year.

Before Taehyung could even graduate from school, the Kim's unexpectedly showed up, using their most ruthless tactics to coerce and entice him back into the fold of the Kim family.

With a surge of defiance, Taehyung stubbornly refused.

It was during this struggle that Taehyung first became aware of the Kim family's formidable influence.

Just as he was about to graduate, he inexplicably found himself expelled from school.

He moved across several cities, seeking employment, only to have each opportunity sabotaged by the Kim's.

In the end, the eldest son of the Kim family, Taehyung's own elder brother, personally led a group to confront him.

As Taehyung hastily fled, he was unfortunate enough to be struck by a car disregarding a red light.

The accident was severe; below his neck, Taehyung was left paralyzed, and his vocal cords were damaged.

The true ordeal had just begun.

In his early twenties, Taehyung found himself lying in a hospital bed, fully conscious, staring at the tubes that invaded his body.

Perhaps it was due to Kim tae-min's "kindness" that the Kim family supported him, this cripple, with care.

Taehyung spent an entire decade lying in that hospital bed.

The room was enclosed, without windows, without birds, and without visitors.

There, he lay alone, accompanied only by the humming of medical equipment.

Even the nurses would only enter when he was asleep.

Occasionally, Kim tae-min would visit him with his family.

Let him witness his family living happily and harmoniously with the one who had stolen his identity.

And Taehyung was powerless even to utter a curse.

In those absolute ten years of solitude, Taehyung first broke down.

He felt that his experience was so grotesquely tragic that it was unbearable for anyone to comprehend.

Afterward, Taehyung could only continuously ruminate over the past moments in his mind.

He recalled the agony of the car accident in an instant.

The biting cold as he fell into the pool during winter.

The memories of every futile explanation, every breakdown from being mistrusted.

Taehyung kept asking why.

Why did all this happen to him?

Why had he ended up in this situation?

He had given up already; he no longer contended with Kim Tae-min. If he couldn't provoke the man, couldn't he just avoid him?

But heaven seemed to be telling him that wasn't an option.

Until just now, something unexpected appeared in Taehyung's mind.

It turned out that all his absurd experiences were merely part of a novel.

In this novel of elite family adoration, Kim Tae-min was the main character, whereas Taehyung was merely a poorly crafted imitation, a tragic supporting role created by the author to highlight the protagonist's brilliance.

The author even solemnly explained that the creation of his character aimed to convey the message that blood ties didn't truly matter!

Lee Taehyung

..............

After digesting all this information, Taehyung had only one thought:

Lee Taehyung

* Let them all perish! *

Lee Taehyung

* Gazing once more at the two individuals before him, Taehyung, who possessed a photographic memory of his pre-paralyzed days, swiftly assessed the current situation. *

It was shortly after he had returned to the Kim family home.

Driven by a longing for familial warmth, he had secretly raised a puppy back in the orphanage, naming it Tannie.

Upon returning to the Kim's, Taehyung had sought the matriarch's permission and brought Tannie along with him.

Yet, upon returning from school this time, he witnessed this scene.

Kim Tae-min

* Kim Tae-min sat on the sofa, two faint red marks visible on his hands. *

The Kim matriarch reproached him, claiming that Tannie had bitten Kim Tae-min and had the dog thrown out.

Preposterous.

Disregarding the fact that Tannie, being a nine-year-old dog, had lost most of its teeth, it would be impossible for it to inflict such wounds.

Taehyung was well aware that Tannie wasn't an endearing breed and didn't want to burden his hard-won family, so he either took the dog out or locked it in his room.

How could Tannie, with all its strength, break through a securely locked steel door to bite Kim Tae-min?

In his previous life, Taehyung had been unable to defend himself.

No matter how he tried to explain, Kim's mother wouldn't listen.

Ultimately, Taehyung had sacrificed his nine-year companion for the sake of his family, watching as they cast Tannie away.

At first, Taehyung had chosen to endure silently.

Later, when he faced reality, he could only escape quietly.

But now, in this body, Taehyung was the one who had spent ten years confined in a small, dark room, hooked up to tubes.

He was on the brink of madness.

Kim Tae-min

"Mother, forgive Brother. The wound on my hand only stings a little."

Kim Tae-min

* Kim Tae-min lowered his head to hide the smile at the corner of his lips. *

Of course, the injury wasn't from that dog's bite.

He opened Taehyung's door, and that good-for-nothing dog would only cower in a corner, showing no sign of aggression.

He had to trouble himself to create fake wounds.

But as long as it was enough, it would do.

Saying this, Kim Tae-min expected Taehyung to fiercely explain or even curse at him, which would worsen Taehyung's image in the hearts of the Kim family members.

Unexpectedly, Taehyung didn't offer any explanation.

Lee Taehyung

* Suddenly, he reached out and grabbed a handful of Kim Tae-min's hair without warning. *

Lee Taehyung

* Without a word, he lashed out with two slaps, one after another. *

Smack!

The crisp sounds echoed through the spacious living room, each one louder than the last.

ch-3: The Art of Colliding Gracefully

⚠️warning Dog Abuse ⚠️

After the deafening noise, an eerie silence ensued.

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

* Mrs. kim retreated, staring at Taehyung in shock. Her perfectly painted lips gaped ungracefully, but her scream was stuck in her throat. *

Kim Tae-min

* Kim Tae-min's hair was still being tightly pulled. *

He was still in disbelief, his fake gentleness freezing on his face. He stood dazed as his cheeks rapidly swelled, marked with red scratches from nails.

It looked far more genuine than if he had done it himself.

Lee Taehyung

"Idiot, who do you think I am? Don't falsely associate us," Taehyung didn't release his grip.

Lee Taehyung

He tugged on Kim Tae-min's hair and sneered, "My dog doesn't bite, but I do. After you've splashed dirty water on me, how can I not give you a couple of slaps to get my worth?"

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

"Ahh!"

Kim Na-Ra (Mrs.Kim)

Mrs.Kim's delayed scream finally echoed, "You, you, you!"

Lee Taehyung

"What are you blabbering about? If your eyesight is poor, go see an ophthalmologist!"

Spitting out those words, Taehyung left the stunned mother and son behind and swiftly ran out of the Kim residence.

Exiting the villa, Taehyung didn't linger.

Scanning the surrounding road signs, he summoned memories from his mind and hurriedly headed towards a specific location.

Tannie had been with him for nine years.

When he was ten, he was small and often bullied at the orphanage. His homework had been torn apart by his dorm mates, and he dared not report it to the teachers for fear that they would reprimand the aunt on duty that day.

Caught between a rock and a hard place, he could only wait until after lights out, grab a flashlight, and huddle in the corner of the orphanage, weeping while piecing together the shredded paper.

That night was bitterly cold, with a northerly wind blowing.

It was that very evening when Taehyung encountered Tannie, still a tiny puppy.

Lee Yeontan(Tannie)

The puppy extended its tongue to lick his cheek.

Lee Taehyung

In an instant, the warm sensation healed all his loneliness and grievances.

Lee Taehyung

From then on, Taehyung often secretly saved his food for the pup.

Tannie also survived that frigid winter.

Young Taehyung had secretly fostered his first and only sense of family.

This was no different from his previous life.

When Taehyung returned home, Tannie had already been discarded.

Initially, Taehyung assumed the Kim family had merely chased Tannie away.

He planned to sneak out at night to search for the dog and find it a new home.

But when Taehyung weathered Kim mother's scolding, all he found on the road was Tannie's lifeless body, crushed by a collision.

The accident had occurred in a secluded area with incomplete surveillance coverage.

Yet, a kind-hearted passerby, having witnessed Taehyung's distress, provided him with a video they had taken.

In the footage, an expensive red sports car could be seen speeding up to knock down Tannie, who had been hiding by the roadside.

Far from leaving the scene, the vehicle proceeded to run over the struggling dog three times in a row.

Upon seeing the car's emblem, Taehyung realized that he lacked the power to seek justice for Tannie.

Perhaps the Kim family could, but Taehyung dared not bring it up.

With this, the last vestige of warmth in Taehyung's life vanished.

By the time Taehyung had suppressed the incident deep within his heart.

On one occasion, at his second brother Kim Hyung-sik's gathering, he had come across that red sports car. The owner had been in the midst of an animated conversation with Kim hyung-sik.

Taehyung had assumed that their acquaintance was simply an unexpected coincidence, given they were both from wealthy backgrounds.

Little did he expect that when the car owner passed by him, he would pause and lean over, smiling as he asked, "Is your dog doing well?" In that very instant, Taehyung felt as if he had fallen into an icy chasm.

Lee Taehyung

He turned stiffly to look at Kim Hyung-sik, then at everyone else in the Kim family. It was only at that moment that Taehyung realized the truth. The car accident that Tannie had been in was entirely orchestrated by the Kim family. Their sole purpose was to give him a harsh warning.

Irony, he was the foolish one to trust these so-called relatives without a second thought.

On the road.

Lee Yeontan(Tannie)

"Ow! Woof!"

A small dog's mournful cry echoed.

A nimble little yellow black dog darted to the side of the road, but its hind leg still brushed against a car wheel, causing it to limp away in a panic.

Inside the screeching red sports car that had come to a sudden stop, the driver, laughing, spoke on the phone:
