In an ancient forest deep in the mountains lived a father and son. Under his father’s instruction, Lin Yan learned to do the laundry, cook, and earn a living from a young age. Every so often, he even had to go do farm work for Widow Wang. Of course, he was paid, but not much, and his father, Lin Dashan, confiscated every last bit, claiming it was payment for teaching him the Seven Killings Divine Art. Yeah, right! It wasn’t even something I wanted to learn. This miserable life went on until Lin Yan turned eighteen. Unable to take any more exploitation, he put his looks to use and became the godson of a young married woman, Li, in exchange for a fake ID. Then he set off to leave the mountains. His father had predicted it all. The moment Lin Yan headed down the mountain, Lin Dashan swapped his last 100 yuan for a blank sheet of paper and even arranged a security job for him at a wealthy family’s estate. Lin Dashan, you’ve ruined my life!
