“Sheung’s Silver Chamber”, the largest jewel company in Foshan, Guangdong Province China, is facing serious financial difficulties. In order to obtain a loan from SHUM’s family, SHEUNG HANG (Paul Chui Pui), owner of the Chamber, together with his primary wife, CHOI SIU-DIP (Nancy Sit Ka Yin), plot to arrange marriage between SHEUNG WAN (Ng Wai Kwok), HANG’s younger brother, and SHUM WING-TUNG (Winnie Young Yuen Yee), daughter of SHUM’s family. Fueled by hatred, CHING SAU-HANG (Christine Ng Wing Mei), WAN’s lover, marries HANG and ironically becomes WAN’s sister-in-law. WAN falls out with HANG, and opts to live abroad and disconnects from his family. After leaving home for years, WAN does not return home until the occasion to celebrate his father’s birthday.

Since WAN’s return, SAU-HANG suffers from her husband’s neglect and gets framed for causing the fourth concubine FEI FEI’s (Nancy Wu Ting Yan) miscarriage. Hatred leads her to commit act that revenge. She seeks to subvert SHEUNG’s family by luring KWAN.
