After hastily married the anti-gambling Jing, pathological gambler Ching attends a recovery workshop, but still struggles to resist her urges. Soon discovered by Jing, Ching decides to move away and quit gambling. Jing recalls the true meaning of “together through thick and thin” and promises to stand by his wife. Rich gambler Ian has long held a grudge against Jing for embarrassing him years ago, and determined to take revenge. Jing’s sister Yan and Ching’s brother Ming are taken hostage in Ian’s illegal casino. To rescue them, Ching breaks her vow to quit gambling and, alongside Jing, confronts Ian in a final high-stakes gamble...
