Plot
[edit]Triad leader Big Bo is a violent man, but his younger brother Hung is a "good guy" with a light personality who fusses around him. Even once Hung's girlfriend was taken, his brother stood up for him.
Bo committed a crime and was sentenced to prison for six months. Before he went to prison, Bo entrusted Hung to take care of his two lovers Ping and Mimi. Hung becomes involved in a dispute between Ping and loan sharks. Later Hung and Ping also rushes to Japan and look for Mimi, who is also in a sticky situation herself. Hung beats his brain out to help them get out of trouble, while also preventing them from finding out each other's identity. After the three return to Hong Kong, Ping and Mimi discovers each other's identity as Bo's mistress. Ping cries but was restrained by Bo.
