Successor of Duan Enterprise, Duan Yuan Bo’s only son. Takes over T.F.K.C., the highest honor fist-fighting competition in all of Asia, which his father created. Yu Qiao grew up in a very good environment, just like that of a royal family. Even though his inner self is righteous and good-hearted, yet there is a kind of tyrannical and arrogant air to him. Easy-going, handsome and gallant is the side of him that fascinates people and ordering people around, insulting people is the side that gets on other’s nerves. As a result, when he goes to the “Fist-fighting Hall” representing the Enterprise to discuss the matter of buying the property rights, he caused You Li and Ying Qi to be very displeased with him. In the end, the two parties were not able to come to an agreement. His mom passed away when he was young and his father re-married. Step-mom, Mei Jin and brother and sister, Yan Hao and Duo Er from Mei Jin’s previous marriage, enters into Yu Qiao’s life. His mentality that he has lost favoritism plus the tragedy of the accident leads to an underlying turbulence in this family which appears to be peaceful. The climax finally happened. Yan Hao pulls a trap on Yuan Bo and forces Yu Qiao out the door. In a quick change of events, Yu Qiao turns from a prince into a street beggar. Wandering along the streets, Yu Qiao who used to be so well off could only put on a false threatening look and force himself to go to the “Fist-fighting Hall” presenting that he is willing to give young people a chance to fight. If the “Fist-fighting Hall’s” business operation picks up, then Duan Enterprise can give up their notion of buying the property. Therefore, You Li, Ying Qi and a bunch of their buddies swallowed their resentment and worked diligently to suck up to Yu Qiao until Yan Hao arrives to put pressure on the Hall. Yu Qiao’s false act is exposed and everyone was very angry. Later, when they find out that Yu Qiao made a big sacrifice in order to give the “Fist-fighting Hall” a chance to stay in business, this loyalty caused everyone to be very touched and putting aside their misunderstandings, they all became good friends. Yu Qiao and You Li have vast differences yet there are subtle similarities to their personalities. Gradually they started having feelings for each other. As for the “Fist-fighting Hall”, they owe a loan and is faced with the crisis of being shut down at any moment. This arouses Yu Qiao’s determination to practice fist-fighting and participate in the T.F.K.C. He wants to use the money from the sale of the tickets to help You Li to solve this crisis. At the same time, this belief also roused up Ying Qi and the rest of the gang at the Hall. Everyone works diligently to get to this goal that they have set.
 

A ruffian that grew up on the streets of the city and lived together with his mom, Ah Cai. Ah Cai’s mood swings are very vast. She’s temperamental and gets moody very easily. This causes Ying Qi to mature much faster than other children that are the same age as him. It doesn’t matter how unreasonable her behavior is, Ying Qi would be considerate and forgiving. This is because he understands the hardships of a single mother raising a child and that’s why he doesn’t have any complaints and just gives his full support. Yet… there are times when he would get seriously injured, but there is no one to help him. He could only hide in a corner and nurse his own wounds. As time goes on, he learned a system of self-protection. He concealed this warm-hearted and loyal part of himself deep inside his heart. On the surface, he would acts as if he doesn’t care about anything in this world and uses laughter, anger to cover up his true feelings. There is a side of happiness and depression, a side of bright and dark to his personality. In order to share the burden of Ah Cai’s responsibilities, in order to survive, Ying Qi will truly do everything in his power. With his ventures throughout the years, he has gathered a bunch of good buddies all over and also a bunch of enemies too. As a result, when he was surrounded by a bunch of his enemies and being beaten up, You Li, being the girl that she is, was brave enough to come to his help. It could be said that Ying Qi fell in love with You Li at first sight but because he feels inferior to her, he could only conceal this feeling of love deep inside his heart. Since then he would always hang around the “Fist-fighting Hall”, with or without a reason and gets familiar with the rest of the gang there. His wit and humor, subtle words, wins everyone’s friendship. With everyone calling him Brother Ying Qi left and right, it seems to give him a sense of being a boss of some sort. He argues and jokes around with You Li a lot and the two of them are like that of two very good buddies. But Ying Qi has big goals for himself. One day, he wants to make a name for himself and be able to win You Li’s heart.

The owner of the “Fist-fighting Hall.” After her father, Ye An Da, disappeared at sea, that’s when his wife finds out that she was pregnant. Later she gives birth to You Li and for this reason, You Li has never seen her father before. Fortunately, An Da left behind enough money so that mother and daughter didn’t have to worry about financial problems. Until the stage of You Li’s middle school years, her mother passed away from long time depression. Following that, her relative, who is her guardian, sends her to a boarding school. After a few years, she finally graduates from college. Due to bad management of finances and using up all the money on her relative’s part, it lead to a poor, old and badly managed “Fist-fighting Hall.” Now, a library administrative graduate student and a “Fist-fighting Hall” have absolutely nothing in common with each other, but being an Aries, You Li launched into her positive confidence and her never give up willpower and insists on keeping the “Fist-fighting Hall” in business because this is the only connection between her and her father. Through her father’s love for this fist-fighting sport, it would give her the happy feeling that seems as if her father is by her side. As a result she leads the whole gang to keep the “Fist-fighting Hall” in operation. You Li completely inherits her father’s genes for sports. Not only is she a fist-fighting fan but she also practices the sport. She is pretty good at it too and ordinary guys would not be a match for her either. Rash, temperamental, stubborn, impatient, but deep within a certain part of her heart, she wishes to be a girl that is pampered and loved.

Lively and cute, a playful girl. Her parents are meat merchants in the market. She would often be hanging around to help out. She is very close with Ah Cai and also secretly has a crush on Ying Qi. In her eyes, Ying Qi is a hero that is undefeatable but Ying Qi act like he doesn’t see her at all and pays her no mind. One day, she accidentally finds out about Ah Cai’s poverty condition and being pressured by the creditors. In order to help and also to give Ying Qi a surprise, Xiao Kui secretly goes to be a “show girl” to earn money. Ying Qi was livid and after searching everywhere for her, he finally finds her. After learning the whole reasoning behind Xiao Kui’s actions and finding out that she did it all for him, Ying Qi wipes away Xiao Kui’s tears and listen to her sob out her story. And from this encounter, Xiao Kui falls even more head over heels for Ying Qi.
 

Mei Jin’s son, Yu Qiao’s younger brother (different father, different mother). His whole life changed due to the fact that he followed Mei Jin into the Duan family. Mei Jin is often telling Yan Hao to wait upon Yu Qiao and to put Yu Qiao’s needs above everything else. Yan Hao doesn’t listen and resists. Mei Jin uses her maternal status to force Yan Hao to yield and be an obedient son. He did his best to adhere to the wishes of his mother. During a kidnapping attempt one time, without care for his own personal safety, he tried to protect Yu Qiao and was captured by the gangsters in place of Yu Qiao. Even though he got back safely later on, but Yan Hao developed a very deep hatred and dissatisfaction for Yu Qiao. Being a Scorpio, he is mysterious and unpredictable and gives people a suspicious and doubting feeling. On the surface he seems modest, gentle and polite but buried deep with a certain part of him, there is roaring hatred, dissatisfaction, humiliation, misery, contradictions… Repressing all of this, he is secretive and speaks few words, persistent; once he makes up his mind on something, then he will certainly draw a fine line between love and hate. His methods are violent, ruthless and he will not stop until he reach his goal. And Yu Qiao is the enemy of his life. Their battles go from Duan Enterprise to fist-fighting skills. It goes so far that it expands to their sister, Duo Er and perhaps because Duo Er is infatuated with Yu Qiao, therefore, Yan Hao controls her with her own violent and unruly feelings and desires.

Duan Yuan Bo’s second wife. Twenty years ago Yuan Bo was with Ruo Sha who had a serious illness. Yuan Bo loved his wife deeply and hired Mei Jin to be a long-time nurse and take care of Yu Qiao, who is a baby then. Two years later, Ruo Sha was not able to fight the illness and departed from this world. With gentle features, filled with patience and compassion, Mei Jin totally wins over Yuan Bo’s trust. Not only did she become Yu Qiao’s nanny, but she even brought her two children into the Duan family to be Yu Qiao’s playmates. Good things always come to good people. Bit by bit, Mei Jin finally captures Yuan Bo’s heart, plus the incident with Yan Hao, Yuan Bo wants to compensate her and after going through much hardship, Mei Jin finally gets her wish and gets the title of Mrs. Duan. She gets everything that she has ever dreamed of, but loses the one thing that is most important – Yan Hao’s love for her. As a result, Mei Jin seems to have fallen into a curse. As long as she can get back her son’s love, then, no matter what it is, she would do everything in her power and use any means to get it done. Mixed feelings, blames herself for not being strong enough, changes in her moods, a contradictory and fragile personality, ruins the life of Mei Jin. Just like that of her Pisces sign, one fish struggles to reach the top yet the other fish sinks to the bottom.

Head of Duan Enterprise, whose business is very vast. They have many channels, department stores, entertainment businesses, etc. When he was young, he loved the fist-fighting sport. He has an enthusiastic and open-minded personality and is a passionate person. After his good friend died in one of the incident, he quit fist-fighting. Fortunately, there is Yu Qiao to continue this for him and help him carry on his establishment of “The King of Fighting.” Yu Qiao also combined all the business that the enterprise owns and created plentiful profits, making Yuan Bo extremely honored. Unfortunately, good times didn’t last long. After fallen into the trap of Yan Hao, Yuan Bo lost his voice and couldn’t talk. His whole body was paralyzed and he is just like a comatose person.

Mei Jin’s daughter, Yan Hao’s blood sister, Yu Qiao’s sister (different father, different mother). Since she was young, she has had admiring feelings for Yu Qiao. Even though they are not related by blood, but because of the concept of incest, the Duan family’s name, and all these pressures, she still haven’t had a chance to express her true feelings. As a result, she could only suppress the feelings in her heart. Later, Yan Hao accidentally finds out about this secret and that’s when all the trouble begins. Yan Hao couldn’t bear the betrayal from someone this close to him. He did everything he could to drive a wedge between Duo Er and Yu Qiao, You Li’s misunderstandings. From then on, Duo Er changed from an angel into an evil being. What’s more she pushed her Sagittarius personality to the extreme. She acted freely and let go of her adventurous and passionate side, focusing on other people’s boyfriends as her target… Later after she finds out that Yu Qiao is hiding out at the “Fist-fighting Hall” and also developed feelings with You Li, Duo Er immediately labeled You Li as her enemy…

Twenty years ago, her husband, Wei Qing Yi and Duan Yuan Bo are best buddies. On the eve of a big competition, also the time when both Ah Cai and Ruo Sha are about to give birth, Yuan Bo’s opponent, Ye An Da, secretly placed some drugs into Yuan Bo’s drink to hinder Yuan Bo’s strength. Unfortunately, by mistake, the drink fell into Qing Yi’s hands. When Yuan Bo and Qing Yi were practicing, Qing Yi was accidentally killed. At the hospital, both Ah Cai and Ruo Sha gave birth to two sons. When Ah Cai was carrying her baby to visit Ruo Sha, she accidentally overheard Yuan Bo telling Ruo Sha that he accidentally killed Qing Yi and couldn’t face Ah Cai. Ah Cai felt as if the ground has fallen from beneath her feet and her whole body felt as if it was on fire. All the fury that she has suppressed inside her bursts forth and under an irrational judgment, she switched her own baby with Ruo Sha’s baby. Everything that Yuan Bo owes Qing Yi, she wants it to be repaid to her son. And that’s how she took Ruo Sha’s baby and disappeared without a trace. This baby was later named Ying Qi. During these twenty years, Ah Cai revenged on Ying Qi day after day, year after year, in the lowest parts of society and singlely raised Ying Qi to an adult.

An old ruffian, a mischievous guy. Just when You Li couldn’t hold up the “Fist-fighting Hall” any longer, he appears. He said that he was her father, Ye An Da’s good friend and that he came to fulfill the promise he made to her father to take care of her before her father passed away. On any ordinary day, he would be chatting his head off, but nine out of ten times, the things that he say are not healthy at all. He seems like an ordinary rough guy but actually he is great fist-fighting genius. Later when Yu Qiao and Ying Qi get into trouble and couldn’t break free, Hua Shu became their tutor who showed them the right way. What’s even more shocking is that Hua Shu’s real identity is You Li’s real father – Ye An Da. After the incident with the death of Wei Qing Yi, on one hand he is battling with his own guilty conscience and on the other hand, there is the pressure from the police’s investigation on the matter, so as a result, he couldn’t bear it any longer and disappeared all together… A car accident changed his appearance and at the same time, brought about new changes. He finally gathers up his courage to return to face his daughter and to face everything else…

Known as the champion of the T.F.K.C., the ruler in the world of fist-fighting and at the same time, he is Yu Qiao’s personal bodyguard. However, the truth is that he has been bribed by Yan Hao. The closest person to Yu Qiao, the one that he is the least likely to guard against, is the one that will betray him. How will things unfold when this all falls on You Li? Firebird pretends that he accidentally bumps into You Li and the two becomes good friends. He often would teach her “secret skills” so that she would show them to Yu Qiao and Ying Qi and feel proud of it. When they get on the fighting stage, everyone would be so surprised. However, Firebird’s real identity gets uncovered and suddenly, everyone realizes that they have been played as fools. Apart from all the stares that are surrounding him around the table, Firebird also holds the world of fist-fighting in his hands. He is calm, his head is clear, he puts his own advantage in front of him, doesn’t mix business with pleasure, tough when he fights and doesn’t hold back. He becomes the key turning point in Yu Qiao and Ying Qi’s fight, a character that is both good and bad.

A typical Cancer sign male. Withdrawn, shy, an extremely worrisome fellow. Extremely fascinated with destiny and geomancy or fengshui. Sensitive and good-hearted. Very happy to help those that are in need of help and he is also very happy with the feeling of being needed and being protective. His extreme over-protective and maternal personality is also that which brings him lots of anxieties and worries. As a result, he works hard to throw himself into the fist-fighting sport in an attempt to gain back a man’s heroic air.

Personality traits of a Virgo, observant, meticulous. The most impressive thing is that he possesses a very special talent at debating, making up things. Just give him any topic and he would be able to lead off into a discussion. At first, there would be logic in what he is saying and people that don’t know him would be quite impressed and believe it to be true. If he adds gestures to his talking, then it would sure bring about much laughter. This is because if you have the patience to listen to everything he has to say, then you will understand that everything he has said is made up, fake. He is just a guy that likes to dream up of illusionary things.

Sagittarius, extroverted, optimistic, energetic, always ready to accept a new challenge, can’t stay quiet for even a minute. Due to the fact that he doesn’t have a father, that’s why he has looked up to “the three dragons (longs)” that he admired the most as his model – Li Xiao Long (Bruce Lee), Cheng Long (Jackie Chan), and Shi Te Long (Sylvester Stallone). Loyal to friends, with a passion for justice, and a bit on the crazy side makes him the perfect target for being the Fist-fighting Hall’s “Human Punch Bag.”
