man Chan, and he deceased son was named Chan Man Lok. People called him Rocky, since he liked to
climb on rocks and do a lot of sports. One day he tripped when he was climbing and ended up cracking his
head and lied dead. Not know of this Old Man Chan thought his son was lost since he climbed a mountain.
Old Man Chan had a shop in Macau it was a small shop that serves food. It was not big enough to
be called a restaurant. It was almost dead since Old Man Chan doesn’t want to cook anymore since he lost
his son. But now that he found someone to take his spot he was exhilarated enough to power him up to
start up the food stall again. He watched Old Man Chan cook and learned a few Macau dish, and snacks.
Old Man Chan had a few dogs, they are all big dogs but one. He treated them as his own children since he
was a lonely man. They are Vog, Skolver, Ash Tail, and Baby. Of course baby is the little one. Vog had
reddish fur and was the aggressive one, Skolver was white, she has a calm nature, Ash Tail is black but with
a grey tail. They are all loyal to the old man, since the old man treats them as his children. Some how they
are quite fond of Ho Nam, then they get along well and in a month they were loyal to him too.
His life was being lead to a happy ending now, he learned how to cook from the old man, and the
old man even gave his shop to him. One day when Ho Nam was standing in his shop, a young lady came
and ordered a dish. Ho Nam has some instinct and could tell something bad was going to happen, but when
he looked at the girl he can’t believe it was accurate. The young lady wore a white dress and a hand bag,
looked more like she is from a rich family. He served the lady and had a little chat with her, she looked
lonely and sad somehow but she neglects it. From that forward she came often to visit Ho Nam, even the
dogs are fond of her as well. Then they became friends Ho Nam then learns that her name was Scarlet.
Every day was wonderful until one day like any other normal days they hung out, did what they always do
and when Scarlet left some tall men who wore a suit came up to his shop. They came up and only asked if
he knew the lady, obviously Ho Nam answered yes, and they knocked him out and dragged him in a car.
When Ho Nam woke up he found himself tied up in a chair, everywhere was dark, but he was not
scared he knew if something was going to hit him it would be karma since he used to this to people back in
the days. Then a fat man in a suit biting a cigar on his mouth walked up to him and slapped him. The fat
man was called Mr. Cheng, and he said his daughter was Scarlet. He then tell Ho Nam that he doesn’t want
any one touching his daughter and told him to back down. But Ho Nam never intimidated by big or small
he told him he won’t stand back not one inch, and that it’s the will of both of them that they are even
friends. It angered Scarlet’s father and he beat Ho Nam, although tied Ho Nam could still not only defend
but offense too. He used the chair to stomp his foot which made him call out to his guards. But something
miracle happened when they grabbed Ho Nam to the garden, the dogs rushed to it one by one jumping
over a small gate, they scared Scarlet’s father and were biting the guards with that life time chance of escape
Ho Nam broke the ropes and whistled for a retreat. When they got to a safe distance, Ho Nam hugged his
