The Dragon Father

They used to call him Nine-Tattoo Dragon. Chen Ye put that down eighteen years ago for a wife and a daughter, and he has been fixing cars in a repair shop ever since. His daughter Nian Nian has grown up bright and turns eighteen. On the night of her birthday her classmate Xiao Ying sets her up, and Wang Chao, who has money behind him, humiliates her. She lies to her parents about it and keeps the rest to herself, because she knows what her father used to be and does not want to drag him back into it. Wang Chao is not finished. He drives to the repair shop at night to push at the old man for sport, and what has been asleep in Chen Ye for eighteen years wakes up while a car is still on the lift. Afterward he moves the shop to a lot beside his daughter's university so he can be within walking distance of her, and Wang Chao's family, the Hongsheng group, is not the sort to let a mechanic embarrass them.
