[edit] Plot
Gallen Lo is orphaned at young age and was adopted by Paul Chun (Ding Wing Bang), a renowned jeweller in Hong Kong who treats him like his real son. He then takes on the name of Paul's dead son, Ding Shang Ben. However, his real name is Chung Tian En and is the elder brother of Deric Wan (Zhong Shou Kang).
On a trip to Perth, Australia, he meets Cheng Tian Lam (Jessica Hsuan) and they had a few incidents, which sort of bring them together. As they are about to begin a relationship together, Gallen is called back to Hong Kong because of his father's side business.
And due to this incident, he gets into trouble with the law; he crosses paths with an undercover police officer, Chung Shou Kang (Deric), who happens to be his long lost brother. He also faces prosecution by Jessica, who happens to be the Deputy Prosecutor for the case. However, he manages to embark on a relationship with Jessica though they face a rocky beginning.
However, in the middle of their relationship, they face a new crisis -- Fu, who sacrifices much for Gallen. As a result, Gallen decides to give up the relationship because of obligation to Fu.

[edit] Critics
Critics of this television series have spanned a long spectrum of opinions. Some regard it to be a spectacular production with classic value while others have whiplashed the series for its "unrealistic" characters. The lasting selflessness of the hero Ivan, as well as the incidental innocence displayed by some usually clever characters, does justify such criticism. However, the story as a whole was written in the spirit of romanticism, and true artists have not been able to dismiss its complex but excellently written plot, considering its genre.
