An international terrorist organization launched a terrorist attack on the dignitaries from various countries attending the meeting. Amidst the hail of bullets, Fu Yanshen risked his life to save Ye Lao, but was hit in the head by shrapnel and spent half a month in the ICU before waking up.
Compared to the reckless courage required to work as a bodyguard, Old Master Ye valued his keen financial acumen even more.
Thus, Fu Yanshen became Ye Lao's capable strategist.
In two years, he saved enough capital to make venture capital investments and began his revenge plan.

He approached his biological father, Sheng Minghui, under the guise of a bodyguard, gained his trust, and infiltrated the Shengshi Group.
In those years, the domestic market was becoming saturated and investment was sluggish. Many wealthy businessmen turned their attention to developing African countries, and Shengshi Group had several large projects in Africa.
However, the security situation there is poor, and there are frequent cases of robbery and kidnapping of wealthy businessmen. Every time Sheng Minghui goes to Africa on a business trip, he has to bring five or six bodyguards with him for protection.
This time, Fu Yanshen was one of them.
Upon first seeing him, Sheng Minghui's eyes lit up.
The 20-year-old was nearly 1.9 meters tall, dressed in a black suit, with a straight and slender figure. Compared to the other burly men, he was worlds apart.
His face was breathtakingly handsome, and even someone in a high position like him couldn't help but lower himself and take a second look at the bodyguard.
Especially those deep, European-style eyes… reminded him of an old friend…
Sheng Minghui shook his head inwardly and got into the car.
For several days in a row, they were all safe and sound.
Sheng Minghui noticed that although Fu Yanshen was a bodyguard, he had an air of arrogance about him. Even when Sheng Minghui, the chairman, tried to exchange a few words with him, the young man was very sparing with his words.
They have no sense of propriety.
People always like to be flattered and hear pleasant words.
Sheng Minghui didn't like this bodyguard very much.
That day, the last day of their trip, they were robbed at gunpoint.
The robbers were all carrying machine guns, while the robbers only had pistols for self-defense. Resisting would be tantamount to throwing their lives away, so they had no choice but to surrender.
Sheng Minghui was kidnapped.
Inside the abandoned warehouse, he was tied to a pillar. The kidnappers called his wife, Dai Xiufen, demanding a ransom of one hundred million US dollars.
Sheng Minghui was in despair at that moment.
Over the years, he and Dai Xiufen have been outwardly friendly but inwardly at odds, a marriage in name only. Now that he's in trouble, the kidnappers are demanding a staggering $100 million.
It's no wonder Dai Xiufen would be unwilling to give him anything; his kidnapping might just be what she wanted.
"Please, please don't kill my husband! I'll transfer the money to you right now, I promise I won't call the police!"
Dai Xiufen didn't even bother to hear her husband's voice; she gave him a few perfunctory words and hung up the phone.
Five hours passed, and the robbers hadn't seen a single penny, so they decided to take drastic measures.
They forced Sheng Minghui to lie face down on the cement floor, pinning down one of his hands, while another person held an axe, intending to chop off his left hand.
Sheng Minghui was shocked, watching helplessly as the sharp axe came crashing down on his wrist.
He dared not breathe, waiting for the pain to begin.
With a loud crash, the axe fell to the ground in the nick of time, and the robber was shot in the arm. Then, one by one, they fell to the ground.
Sheng Minghui opened his eyes and saw a young man dressed in black, holding a black pistol, walking towards him.
At that moment, his eyes welled up with tears.
As the young man approached, he recognized his face.
It was that bodyguard, Xiao Fu, who had been ignoring him.
"Chairman Sheng, let's go." Fu Yanshen untied him, supported his injured leg, and walked towards the back window.
Their commotion alerted the robbers guarding the gate.
Amidst the hail of bullets, they jumped out of the window. Fu Yanshen shoved him into a black sedan, and the two sped away.
After shaking off the robbers, Sheng Minghui noticed that Fu Yanshen's dark black shirt was plastered to his back, making it even darker and smelling strongly of blood.
Then he saw a bloody hole below his shoulder blade!
Sheng Minghui was moved, "Little Fu, you're injured!"
The young man in the driver's seat drove steadily, looking at him through the rearview mirror, "Chairman Sheng, it's alright, I'm glad you're okay."
After saying that, he looked away and focused on driving.
Although it is a bodyguard's duty to protect his employer, how many of them would actually risk their lives to do so?
No amount of money is as important as life.
This young Fu is truly dedicated.
Sheng Minghui was deeply moved. "Xiao Fu, I won't treat you badly after we return to China!"
He didn't see that Fu Yanshen in the driver's seat had a sneer on his lips.
The people who kidnapped Sheng Minghui were hired by him to stage a self-inflicted injury for him.
He hated him too much to even think about saving him; if he didn't have ulterior motives, why would he save him?!
After returning to China, Fu Yanshen became Sheng Minghui's personal bodyguard, someone he trusted.

In the afternoon, the entire villa was bathed in sunlight.
A black Rolls-Royce stopped at the gate of the courtyard. Fu Yanshen got out of the passenger seat, walked to the back seat, and opened the car door.
Sheng Minghui got out of the car, carrying a Tiffany blue tote bag.
Today is the 20th birthday of his beloved daughter, the eldest daughter of the Sheng family.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard the cheerful "tap-tap" of footsteps, which startled the birds on the branches, causing them to flap their wings and fly into the air.
Fu Yanshen followed the sound and looked indifferently. A bright and flamboyant red figure entered his field of vision...
