About Love as a Predatory Affair
Lo Gwai Fong, who works in the food supply industry, has an ordinary face, is short, over 30 years old and lacks experience in dating. One time, in an incident involving bitter melon, she helps young restaurateur Lau Bak Yip survive a crisis. The tall, rich and handsome Lau Bak Yip takes notice of her inner beauty and falls in love with her. Lo Gwai Fong's neighbour and good friend Ko Gwai Fun finds this hard to accept. Although Ko Gwai Fun hails from the fish market, she has the face and body of a goddess. She has been trying every way to create sparks with Lau Bak Yip, but to no avail. When love no longer trumps everything, when there are no more standards for beauty and ugly, men and women simultaneously become hunters and prey and a nasty battle for love erupts.
