Synopsis
Lin Chu Man (Lynn Hung), a fashion model with a sweet appearance and a body that stands out from the other models, does not prejudice against a man for being short, fat, ugly or old, as long as he is rich. One day, she met Cai Jia Hao (Vanness Wu) and thought she had met her perfect Mr. Right, but she doesn't know that he is actually a hired body double for the billionaire "Mr. William Norman". When she discovers that Jia Hao is only a hired body double and his true identity is a penniless music student, she immediately dumps him. As karma would have it, she loses her job to a younger model, her rich lover dumps her and she finds out that Cai Jia Hao will be her new roommate. Chu Man and Jia Hao's unexpected living arrangement forces them to reconcile and to really get to know each other. As Chu Man becomes closer to Jia Hao, her goal of nabbing the real estate tycoon Yan Kai Ming (Daniel Chan) becomes less of a priority. She starts to question whether being rich is what she truly desires.
