Loy and Oi-lin are two shopkeepers working on the same avenue. Loy is a man in his 40s who lives with his beauty-obsessed mother; Oi-lin is a stubborn yet pretty and unobtrusive girl.They are set up on a match-making date by well-meaning relatives. Actually, they both have somebody else on their minds and do everything they can to avoid this meeting, but after a while they realize that they have quite a few points in common. A romantic comedy that glimpses at urban life in present-day Hong Kong.
