Ding Sheung-Wong is a man in his thirties but with an IQ of a seven-year-old. People would make fun of him by calling him crazy, but he would tell them that he is just simple. His best friend Wong Kei-Fung, who was friends with him since they were young, used to play a game where he was the husband and she was the wife; hence, this is why Wong refers to Fung as his "little wife". One day Fung told Wong that she would have to leave for the United States for four years of college.When Fung returns to Hong Kong, she finds a job at the Chung Corporation where she works under the management of Chung Kam-Wing and his son Michael Chung Chi-Chung. Later Kam-Wing finds out that Wong is his biological son and recruits him to his company, as well. Angel On Kei, Fung's cousin, who returned with Fung from the States has a crush on Chi-Chung. But Chi-Chung has a crush on Fung. Fung feels that Wong is the one that can make her truly happy but is puzzled whether to choose Chi-Chung or Wong...
