Ming De is a member of the Jin family and referred to as the big senior brother among Old Master Shang's disciples. He is opening a new store after the New Year. Shang Rong and the Xie family view him as a threat, with Old Mrs. Xia worrying he is trying to take what belongs to Shang Rong. Xia Ren claims Ming De sent four men to beat him up and chase him for four blocks, accusing him of underworld connections. Sixth Master and other disciples defend Ming De, insisting he has never had ill intentions toward the Shang family.
