The story takes place a few years from the first series.
Chu So Ngo (Esther Kwan) has been promoted to sergeant rank in the police but she encounters professional setbacks due to her new responsibilities. She depends on fellow cop Chan Siu Sang (Bobby Au-Yeung) who is now her boyfriend for support and a secure future, and hopes for him to get promoted soon. They plan to get married. The added pressure of waiting for a promotion and So Ngo depending on him gets to Siu Sang, and he finds some breathing room with Sum Yeo (Eileen Yeow), his beautiful next door neighbor whom he sees as a platonic friend. When So Ngo finds out that she cannot have any more children, she rethinks whether she and Siu Sang should really get married. With all the added pressure in their relationship, both decide to break up. Siu Sang finds relief in Sum Yeo, whom he dates briefly and soon marries. So Ngo starts a relationship with taxi driver Yeung Kwong Chiu (Eddie Cheung), who thinks she looks like his dead wife.
