Two flowers bloom, each representing a different aspect.

The old man in the Bentley felt worse after vomiting; he was dizzy and felt unwell all over.

"Sir, are you feeling unwell? Should I take you to the hospital?" The driver asked with concern when he saw the old man's pale face in the rearview mirror.

"Take me home first!" the old man snorted stubbornly, then closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat, panting heavily.

The driver didn't dare say anything more and could only rush to the most famous and luxurious Imperial View villa area in Shenzhen as fast as possible.

The Bentley drove into a luxurious villa with its own private courtyard. A beautiful young woman, naturally stunning but with a cold expression, was feeding the fish in the large pond in the garden.

This is a beautiful and elegant picture that would please anyone who sees it. However, if you look closely, the beauty will not only be diminished but may even disappear!

The girl wasn't feeding the fish ordinary food, but rather raw, bloody meat. The fish's appearance was obscured from the surface of the pond, only the bloody water churning. The raw meat thrown in was instantly devoured.

Yes, the fish raised in this pond are extremely terrifying piranhas. It's intriguing that a girl would enjoy handling such bloody creatures.

The girl was as beautiful as a peach blossom, but she was cold-hearted and icy, as if the whole world owed her money. Only when she saw the old man slowly get out of the Bentley did a rare smile appear on her face.

"Grandpa, why are you back?"

"Hehe!" The old man forced a smile. "Girl, are you happy that Grandpa is back?"

The girl nodded, her expression softening slightly. "Grandpa, really, you came all this way back without even calling beforehand so I could have picked you up at the airport!"

"I wanted to surprise you!"

The old man smiled and looked lovingly at his granddaughter, Ding Hanhan, who was his only blood relative in the third generation.

"My precious granddaughter's twentieth birthday is in a few days, how could I not come back!"

Ding Hanhan finally smiled, though it was barely perceptible. But for her, it was a rare occurrence; only when facing her closest and dearest people would she show such genuine emotion.

"Where's your father?" the old man asked as he walked toward the villa.

"Dad is in Beijing. I'll see if I can contact him and tell him you're back!" Ding Hanhan said, taking out her phone.

"Why go to Shantou?"

Ding Hanhan shook her head: "I'm not too sure either, I heard it's a club..."

"Hmph!" The old man grunted, interrupting his granddaughter. "Triads, triads, all they do all day is engage in those filthy things, doing dirty work. What's the use of being a big shady character? They can't stand the light of day, they're like rats in the sewers. Why can't he learn from your uncle and work for me and the group honestly..."

As the old man was speaking, he suddenly felt a blackout before his eyes!

The world spun around him, and he immediately lost his balance and fell onto the sofa!

My chest tightened and felt tight, and my stomach churned!

With a "whoosh," he finally couldn't hold back and vomited again.

"Grandpa, Grandpa, what's wrong?" Ding Hanhan cried out in alarm. "Abu, Butler Du, come quick, come quick!"

Driver Abu and Butler Du rushed over upon hearing the noise, and were quite startled by the scene before them.

"Butler Du, call Dean Peng right now, quick!" Ding Hanhan shouted anxiously, tears streaming down her face.

"Don't worry, Miss, I'll call right away!" The panicked housekeeper Du finally came to her senses and quickly made the call.

After vomiting several times, Old Man Ding finally felt a little better. He reached out and wiped the tears from his granddaughter's cheeks. "Girl, don't panic, Grandpa's alright!"

"Grandpa, what's wrong? Please don't scare me!"

Ding Hanhan has always been a stubborn person, but now that she sees her beloved grandfather in trouble, she can no longer control her emotions.

"It's nothing, she probably caught a slight cold on the way back. It's nothing serious, just a minor issue. I'll have Dean Peng take a look later!" Old Man Ding patted his granddaughter's shoulder affectionately. "You've grown up so much, why do you cry so easily? Look at you, you look like a little kitten, not pretty at all!"

Ding Hanhan simply wiped away her tears and said nothing.

Old Ding forced a relaxed smile, but he couldn't shake off the feeling of depression in his heart. However, he didn't want his granddaughter to see it!

"Honey, didn't you say you could make desserts when you called me overseas a few days ago? Grandpa's a little hungry, could you make some for him to try?"

Actually, Old Man Ding had no appetite at all right now. Not only today, but for the past few days, his appetite had been poor!

He just wanted to find an excuse to send his granddaughter away, afraid that he would vomit again and let her see.

His granddaughter's personality was a bit eccentric, but he truly had an indescribable affection for her, always regarding her as the apple of his eye, afraid that she would break if he held her in his hands or melt if he kept her in his mouth, cherishing her dearly.

He had a lot going on in France, but knowing his granddaughter's birthday was approaching, he put aside his busy schedule and came back to personally organize her birthday celebration.

Old Ding is a sentimental person, a nostalgic person, and a person with a story to tell.

Ding Laotou's original name was Ding Yi. He was born and raised in Shenzhen and is now the chairman of Yisheng Group, which is ranked 100th in the world and has more than 50,000 employees.

But who would have thought that Ding Daxing, now worth billions, was a good-for-nothing nicknamed Ding Busi in Shenzhen forty years ago!

Back then, Shenzhen was not as prosperous as it is now. It was just a small fishing village where almost everyone with some skills could farm, sail boats, fish, and dry salted fish.

Ding Yi's nickname was Ding Bu Si (meaning "Ding the Incompetent") because he was bad at all four things: farming yielded no harvest, he was afraid of getting seasick when sailing, his fishing nets were empty, and even his salted fish got infested with maggots. He was the most useless person in the village.

With the birth of his youngest son, his already tight life became even more difficult, and he often didn't know where his next meal would come from!

Forced into a corner, Ding Yi smuggled himself to Hong Kong to seek his fortune!

Unexpectedly, this trip allowed him to gain a foothold in Hong Kong. Ding Busi, who was good for nothing in the fishing village, unexpectedly possessed an exceptional talent for doing business!

First he set up a street stall, then he opened a general store, and then he started a trading company!

As his business grew larger and larger, he eventually expanded to France, where he founded the current Yisheng Group.

As things gradually stabilized, he planned to come back and bring his wife and son over. However, due to the limitations at the time, he only took his younger son and left his older son and wife on the mainland.

Years later, when he finally had the means to bring his eldest son and wife over, he learned that his sixteen-year-old son had fallen into organized crime and become the leader of a small gang, with no way to turn back.

Ding Yi tried everything he could to persuade him to turn back, but to no avail, so he could only let him be!

Decades have passed, and as he has grown older, his longing for his hometown has become increasingly heavy. Especially with the recent financial crisis, Ding Yi has been planning to return to his hometown.

Actually, besides wanting to celebrate his granddaughter's birthday, he also wanted to discuss an important matter with his eldest son this time!

He plans to invest heavily in development in mainland China, which will be managed by his eldest son, but on the condition that he disbands the triad.

Old Ding's intentions were good, but it was a bit wishful thinking!

As the saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings; forcing them may not bring happiness!
