I started watching this only because of Priscilla - she's one of my favorite actors and I like how she acts her age in this drama. So lemme say this at the beginning itself - I was cheering for her from the get go and wanted Elaine out of the picture asap (my apologies to Elaine fans).
Though the drama stressed a lot on the use of mobile phones, I was somehow only interested in the interactions between the characters and not how they interacted. It's a simple story of two people (Cho Kin and Ting Sun), who first met when her father and his sister passed away in a fire accident. They both feel the agony of the other, but are in no state of mind to talk to each other. They meet years later when her mother agrees to babysit his daughter. Though Ting Sun might seem to be enjoying the perfect married life with a dutiful wife and a cute, obedient daughter, it is not the same on the inside. Slowly we come to realize the truth about the family and how they come to terms with it. As expected, for the main characters to come together, the wife has to leave. On the other hand, we have Cho Kin initially paired with some reta--, I mean an unsuitable person, and I was left waiting for them to break up. Cho Kin and Ting Sun come together due to his daughter Yau Yau (who's so adorable) and slowly come to realize the importance of having someone who really loves them. Ting Sun feels that she might end up like his (ex-)wife and shuns her, but she refuses to let go. ("Yau Yau is mine, that sofa is mine", I absolutely loved that scene)
Concluding Thoughts: It is a must watch if you're a Priscilla fan. If you liked her in Madam Cutie on Duty or Karma Rider, you'll love her here. Even if you're not, I'd recommend this drama to anyone looking for a long walk down the romantic lane.
