Synopsis
Hill (Benny Chan) is trapped between going to help his mother at her company, or to help his grandfather with his garment factory. Since he does not want to choose between them, he decided to work at the zoo for his best friend, Sing's (Michael Tong) uncle. There, they meet an archaeologist, Joey (Shirley Yeung). Joey is naive and short-tempered, but she is kind-hearted. They also meet an acrobat named Tan (Linda Chung). Almost immediately, Sing is attracted to her.
Joey is dating a boy named Sang (Jack Wu), whom she finds has been cheating on her. He breaks up with her afterwards. However, as the story progresses, Joey begins to develop feelings for Hill. On the other hand, Sing keeps trying to tell Tan how he feels about her, but later finds that she doesn't like him at all. Things get complicated for the four friends when Joey and Sing find out that Hill and Tan like each other. This results in hilarious plans to separate them and always ends up backfiring on Joey and Sing. However, the two naive, hot-headed, and normally totally not-serious people find they have fallen for each other.
On the other part of the story, the four friends are on a mission to find the twelve zodiac bronze heads for their professor (Bowie Wu). They followed the clues left for them by the bronze dog's head. And later found out that there is a hidden treasure in Panyu. Along with this treasure is another bronze head, the ram. They figured that the treasure is their goal and decided to go after it. Other than them, there is other groups who seeks it, too. The treasure once belonged to a group called 'The Ten Tigers'. They were thieves that looted many villages, including French merchant. All these stealing built up their treasure. They have hidden the treasure in a secret place followed by many clues and keys they left for their descendants. As the story goes, step by step the four friends get closer to finding the treasure, however, they were also getting deeper into trouble.
