Rebirth: 1977

Ye Tianshui did not expect that the Ding brothers would come to attend the celebration ceremony at his hotel.

To be honest, from the time he acquired the surrounding houses to the time he built this hotel, he never told anyone in a big way that this hotel had anything to do with him.

But those who are really familiar with him and pay attention to him can also find out through some channels.

So, the Ding brothers have been paying attention to me?

You obviously work in Wanwan, so how can you know so much about the situation in Hong Kong Island?

Or has Ding Dafu never given up on focusing attention on his every move?

Ye Tianshui smiled calmly. If he was just unwilling to lose the treasure passed down by his ancestors, he could understand it.

But he cannot let it go.

Decades of earth-shaking changes since the brothers left their country have meant that the Ding family's wealth is no longer within the reach of their descendants.

This was the case in the previous life, it was taken away by other people. In this life, it fell into Ye Tianshui's hands, and he wanted to use this wealth where it should be used.

Ye Tianshui's own wealth is incredible just relying on the financial companies on Wall Street.

What's more, the explosive period of domestic development has not really arrived yet, and the financial paths he has secretly laid out will bring Ye Tianshui countless wealth.

But if Ding Dafu had other intentions towards him, he would be doomed to be disappointed.

From what he knew about Ding Dafu now, he had not done anything to harm the national interest so far.

His identity as a spy was a special mission given to him by a special era, which was equivalent to a job that Ding Dafu found for survival.

Ye Tianshui is not a very selfless person, but he is definitely patriotic.

All his efforts are to make life better for himself and his family.

He had no relatives in his previous life, but now he has a lover, close relatives, and people he needs to protect.

No matter what Ding Dafu does, as long as it does not cross Ye Tianshui's bottom line, Ye Tianshui can ignore and turn a blind eye to whatever he does.

Even for the sake of Grandma Ding's friendship, it might not be a bad idea to get along with them in a friendly manner.

Ye Tianshui was about to arrange the Ding brothers to sit at the dinner table, but Ding Dafu gently pulled him by the clothes and took him to a deserted place nearby.

Ding Dakun followed closely behind, holding an exquisite box.

Ye Tianshui: "Uncle Ding, what do you want?"

Ding Dafu said earnestly:

“Master Ye, we know that we brothers are not your welcome guests, but in our hearts, you are our benefactor.

You are the benefactor who took care of my mother, accompanied her, and provided her with care and support until her death when she was in the most difficult time.

Seeing you is like seeing the shadow of my deceased mother again.

You have taken such good care of her for us brothers, and you have always been helping us children and grandchildren to fulfill our filial piety and responsibility.

Whenever I think of it, my brothers and even my whole family feel extremely ashamed and grateful."

Ding Dafu's words were sincere and heartfelt. Ye Tianshui looked at him with a calm smile:

“My two uncles, I certainly welcome you to attend the celebration ceremony at my hotel.

As for what happened to grandma, it’s not your fault, and grandma has never blamed you.

Before she died, she was still hoping that you would all be safe and well.

By the way, grandma left a letter for you at your parents’ grave. I also took a photo of it. On the back, there is a detailed address.

I always carry it with me, and was thinking about how I could contact you.

It's just right that you're here today. I'll get it later and give it to you before the banquet is over."

Ding Dakun asked excitedly:

"Really? Mr. Ye, did my mother really leave us a letter?"

Ding Dafu's face was excited. He tried to control his emotions and asked cautiously:

"Mr. Ye, do you know what my mother said in the letter?

Is there anything else you can say besides words of concern?"

Ye Tianshui shook his head slightly:

“Grandma sealed her mouth after she finished writing. She wrote it for you. Why would I ask her what she wrote?

Once you have read it, you will know what is inside it.”

"Oh, brother,...that's great, Mom finally left a message for us.

Unfortunately, none of us brothers were able to be with her when she passed away.

And our dad..."

Ding Dakun couldn't control his depression.

"Yeah, I didn't expect Mom would leave us a letter. Dad...we shouldn't mention this matter again.

Mr. Ye, thank you, thank you!"

Ding Dafu thanked him repeatedly, but Ye Tianshui didn't understand what he was thanking him for.

Ding Dafu took the exquisite box from Ding Dakun, pressed a button, and it opened with a "click". Ye Tianshui looked at the neatly arranged small boxes inside.

He was stunned for a moment, but he could see clearly that it was a watch box. Judging from the foreign letters on it, it should be the world's most famous Rolex watch.

Ye Tianshui's mind was in a whirlwind of thoughts for a moment. Could this be a gift from the Ding brothers to him?

But why are there five small boxes inside?

"Uncle Ding, what are you doing..."

Ye Tianshui looked at Ding Dafu with doubtful eyes.

Ding Dafu closed the box and handed it to Ye Tianshui:

“We brothers know that Master Ye is of noble status and has everything he needs, but today is your big day, we brothers can’t come empty-handed, right?

Hehehe, it’s just a small gift from me. Some time ago, I asked a friend to go to Switzerland to buy a few watches. I hope I can give them to you and your family when I have the chance to enjoy them.

I hurried here knowing that your hotel is opening today.

Please accept it, Master Ye."

Ding Dakun explained respectfully:

"My brother and I have always wanted to repay Mr. Ye for taking care of our mother.

It's just a small gift to show my appreciation, please accept it."

Ye Tianshui looked at the priceless rosewood box containing five Rolex watches, and his heart sank a little.

"Uncle Ding, how can this be considered a 'small gift'? A watch is already a significant gift, how can I accept five watches?

Besides, I take care of Grandma Ding, that is the fate between us, it can't be called a "favor". "

He looked at the Ding brothers calmly, "I'm very happy that you can come to support us. I'll take you in and have a seat at the table.

The banquet has already begun. As the host, it would be rude if I didn’t go in.”

Ye Tianshui raised his hand and gently pushed the hand in front of him back.

Turning and walking into the banquet hall, he had already noticed that brothers Fu Jinyan and Tong Dawei were glancing over here while greeting guests.

They all know the Ding brothers.

They also knew the relationship between Ye Tianshui and them, and they were all confused. They didn't know what the three people were talking about while hiding aside?

Seeing that Ye Tianshui really didn't want to accept the gift, Ding Dafu quickly gave his brother a look. Ding Dakun stopped Ye Tianshui and said earnestly:

"Master Ye, this is a small gift from us brothers, please accept it.

We customized the watches directly from the manufacturer. We have acquaintances in the factory and the price is not expensive.

People say that it is hard to get a watch, but in fact that is a sales tactic used by the manufacturer.”

Ding Dakun's tone was sincere:

“If I give one as a gift, it’s really not worth it.

Mr. Ye can use it for himself or give it to elders and friends."

Ye Tianshui raised his eyebrows. He always knew that Ding Dakun was a man of few words, but today he said a lot.

He turned back and faced the Ding brothers with a calm expression and a faint smile:

"I am a junior, but I accept your generous gifts. I feel really bad about it."

He paused for a moment, stretched out his hands to take the box, and sighed softly:

"It is said that 'a gift from elders cannot be refused', uncles, I will accept it with all my heart.

Thank you, uncles!

Please follow me in and take a seat."
