By chance, she discovers that Tseung Pit Ching, Tseng Kiu's second son, is not a playboy but an upright person loved by everyone in the shop. She therefore guides and helps him in every possible way, but her efforts are met with Chai Kau's challenges. Chai Kau seeks vengeance for being mistreated and wants payback from the Tseung family. After rounds after rounds of battle wits and actual fights, Hong Po Kei and Chai Kau begin to appreciate each other. Chai Kau even falls for Hong Po Kei as time goes by.

Synopsis

An incisive portrait of a business woman torn between duty and desire

Hong Po Kei's engagement with Wuxi rice baron Tseng Kiu broke off many years ago when a natural disaster hit the country. Later when the country was running out of food supply her whole family was killed and she became a criminal. Over the years, Hong Po Kei has never got over Tseng Kiu. She has been trying to prove he is not as heartless as the others think. Fate has it that they meet again and she becomes his fourth wife. Tseng Kiu's first and second wives, Yan Fung Yee and Pang Kiu, always make things difficult for Hong Po Kei. Hong Po Kei, who is an extremely clever person who never wastes time on trivial things, turns every threat into an opportunity. This makes Tseng Kiu appreciate her wisdom and persistence. He entrusts his business to her and tells her to find a suitable successor for him before he dies.

Despite all the attacks on the family, Hong Po Kei manages to keep the business in good shape. She has never forgotten Tseng Kiu's last wish, too. By chance, she discovers that Tseung Pit Ching, Tseng Kiu's second son, is not a playboy but an upright person loved by everyone in the shop. She therefore guides and helps him in every possible way, but her efforts are met with Chai Kau's challenges. Chai Kau seeks vengeance for being mistreated and wants payback from the Tseung family. After rounds after rounds of battle wits and actual fights, Hong Po Kei and Chai Kau begin to appreciate each other. Chai Kau even falls for Hong Po Kei as time goes by.
