Chen Weichen (Monica Chan) is Jiang Yiju's fiancee, wishing to put off marriage, Jiang has a long standing standing bet with Chen, that if she can beat him at mahjong she can name the day of their marriage, with the knowledge that with his skills at the game that it would be impossible for her to do so without him throwing the game. However to his dismay Jiang learns after one such game (by examining the discards) that, having been together for so long, Chen has learnt enough of his own card sharping skills to be able to beat him and that it has been her that has been throwing the games in his favour. Realising that this means that she is on the verge of giving up on their relationship Jiang must therefore ask himself does he love being a bachelor more than Chen?
