Billy came back to China immediately he received the news of his parents’ death. He is the only child of his parents and the second generation heir to Tiaz groups, a multi Billionaire company in China and abroad. Ever since he was five, his grandfather wanted him to take over the company.

"Young master" Ray, one of the most trusted men in Tiaz groups, called and approached Billy at the arrivals. He immediately collected Billy's bag. A black BMW car was parked in front of Billy, Ray opened the car door for Billy and Billy entered the car then the car went off.

Billy got to Tiau family house and saw his grandfather and aunt with his cousin Gu Min and also some of the Tiau family members, everyone was putting on gloomy faces.

"Tiau San, come to grandfather" Billy's grandfather called his Chinese name when he saw that Billy arrived. "I’m sorry grandson, I could not protect your father and mother" the old man wiped.

"it's not your fault grandfather" Billy said and looked at his grandfather helplessly.

"Poor boy, he did not even enjoy the company of his parents before they died" Billy's aunt, Tiau Zi said in a low voice but enough for everyone to hear.

"Tiau Zi, if you don't know what to say just keep your mouth shut" Billy's grandfather shout at his daughter with anger. Tiau Zi is the only elder sister to Billy's father, Tiau Zu.

"Father, I am only pitying the poor boy since his still young and only gets to see his parents every new year" Tiau Zi said mockingly.

“If you don't know what to say just go back to your husband's house" the old man roared at her. Tiau Zi become scared and could not say anything again.

Billy did not get angry at what his aunt said, because he already knew that his father and aunt were not close to each other even though they are sliblings.

"Grandfather," Billy called his grandfather after some time, " I’d like to see Mom and Dad" Billy said looking determined.

"Will you be okay seeing them?" Billy's grandfather looked at Billy pitifully.

"Yes, grandfather" Billy replied with a straight face.

Ray drove Billy to the hospital where Billy's parents corpse were kept. When Billy see his parent's corpse, he felt sad. He remembered how excited he was when they told him that they would all go for vacation in the coming year, tears wiped down on his face.

"Young master, are you alright?" Ray asked with concern when he saw that. Billy quickly cleaned his face and pretended to be strong. He has been taught not to show his weakness to others even though he was still young.

"Dad, Mom, I will expose whoever is behind your accident" Billy said in his mind. He knew that it was not just an accident, but he did not know who could have done such thing.

The next day, Billy's parent were buried, that night Billy's grandfather called him to talk to him.

"Tiau San, I know your parents are gone and you must need time to recover from the grief. But you know that the company also needs you" Billy's grandfather paused and continued, "Since your father died, the company has been affected a lot and I’m too old to handle all the things by myself. I need you to take over the company. I can not let your aunt or cousin take over the company" Billy's grandfather said and looked at Billy expectedly.

"I know, grandfather, but I need some time and also I cannot just leave school like that to work in the company" Billy replied.

"Why should you still go to school? You have the company." Billy's grandfather asked him anxiously

"Grandfather, I will only agree to take over the company if you let me continue schooling" Billy said looking down arrogantly. He knew that his parents would like to see him finish the school first if they were still alive.

His grandfather kept quite for a long time as if considering something. "Okay, I will, you can continue schooling, but you can not let your school affect the company in any way." his grandfather warned.

"It will not" Billy replied instantly.

"And I give you only one month to get yourself ready." his grandfather added, patting him on the shoulder then left him speechless.

***

Although many people are not optimistic about him, Billy successfully took over the company within a month and became famous in the Chinese financial world..

When school resumes, he transfered to Jengwa high school with his English name, for not being too noticeable.

"My name is Tiau Billy, I just transferred here from abroad, please take care of me" he said with a smile and some of the girls in the class shouted because he was so handsome, he also had dimple. The moment he smiled, his dimples were evident.

Then the teacher asked him to sit beside a girl, the name of the girl is Xiao Xie.

Xiao Xie was always quiet in the class and she never liked to talk to anyone. Billy greeted her but Xiao Xie ignored Billy as if he is not visible.

Billy scratched his head out of habit, because he had never be ignored all his life. ”This girl is interesting.” He said to himself.

At lunch, he noticed that Xiao Xie did not leave the class even when everyone went for lunch. He looked at Xiao Xie with concern. “she seems to be lonely.” Billy thought.

That night, after Billy finished his bath, he laid on the bed, trying to sleep. But the image of Xiao Xie's sad face appeared again and again in his mind. ,

She was adorable but quite. She always stayed calm as she cared about nothing, however, Billy can see the hidden sadness in her eyes. Those beautiful eyes, just like an clean pool which attracts you to fall in.

“What magic has she done at me?” Billy sighed and covered himself with the duvet, “well, I’ll finally find the answer someday.”
