Synopsis:
Lin Sheung Chun came from a poor family. She was sold off to the Kwan family as a concubine, but shortly after marriage, her husband passed away. Her husband's sudden death could not be accepted by his first wife, Wong Yuk Lam. This resulted in Yuk Lam behaving erratically and became mentally unstable.

As such, the responsibility of managing the household and all other family matters fall on Sheung Chun's shoulders. She even had to take over the management of the family's business which is a bistro.

Swindlers, Ma Wing Ching and Lee Shi Mui, were up to their mischief and antics. However, Sheung Chun was around and managed to blow their cover. Unfortunately, Yuk Lam mistakenly identified Wing Ching as her senior apprentice and follows him around. Wing Ching used this perfect opportunity to swindle more money from the Kwan family bistro.

After a series of incidents and misunderstandings, Wing Ching and Sheung Chun fall for one another. Sheung Chun felt confused between her feelings for Wing Ching as well as her childhood friend, Leung Kau Mui.

At the same time, Yuk Lam's second senior apprentice, Yam Fei Yeung, returned home with his foster son, Yam Shing Tin. Fei Yeung, who harboured feelings for Yuk Lam hoped to win her heart once more but Sheung Chun felt that Fei Yeung has ulterior motives.
