The couple had always only hoped for a peaceful family, but because ON had to rescue second brother KWAN KA HONG (Oscar Leung) and help him get through the troubles of his failed business, not only does he put his career plans aside, his wife KIU also had to go back out into the workforce. His younger sister KWAN KA LOK (Linda Chung) didn't want to burden her big brother any further, so she turned to her supervisor KO WAN JIM (Michael Tse) for assistance. However, the relationship turned into unethical interaction. LOK's boyfriend TING KOON FUNG (Ron Ng) was angered by her doings and wanted to break up with her. Fourth brother, KWAN KA WING (Him Law) lives his life from paycheck to paycheck. He would rather spend his monthly salary than to take up the responsibility of owning a home....ultimately, a nightmare starts in the KWAN family.

For this reason, no one wants to marry her - that is, until the second son of the formerly wealthy Kam family, Kam Dor Luk, is persuaded to marry her to save the family business. Princess Chiu Yeung resists the arrangement but realizes that it is a better alternative than being forced to marry the Tibetan king as schemed by her father's evil concubine. When the princess moves in with her personal servants after the marriage, family drama and conflict ensues, but is Princess Chiu Yeung stubborn enough to stay and win the heart of her new husband?
