Plot

On a rainy day, Ah Man was driving home in his mini-bus licensed DY1314. A truck in the opposite lane lost control and crashed into Ah Man's mini-bus. Dai Fai, who was driving past the scene in another mini-bus, stopped immediately and tried to save Ah Man, who unfortunately was killed...

Ah Man's newly wed Siu Wai was stunned by the bad news when she was waiting for him at the station!

Hit by the bad news, Siu Wai knew she still had to go on living, especially when there was Lok Lok, the son of Ah Man and his ex-wife Ah Shan. Siu Wai was determined to conceal her pain and stay with Lok Lok. Looking back when she decided to marry Ah Man, her family was strongly against their union. Now, her family again opposed to her raising the child. However, Siu Wai had made up her mind.

Ah Man's mini-bus DY1314 was special to Siu Wai and she insisted to have it repaired, regardless of the costs. She even decided to become a mini-bus driver herself! However, she lacked the experience and was no match to her competitors. Dai Fai took pitied on her and Lok Lok and taught her a few tricks to survive the intense competition. He helped her whenever she needed help and that led to rumors and gossips...

Whenever she was down, Siu Wai would call Ah Man's mobile to hear his voice or leave him a message about her difficult life.

Then Dai Fai learnt that Siu Wai was in financial difficulty. She couldn't afford to pay her rent, the hire purchase payment of the mini-bus and even Lok Lok's tuition fees. She didn't want Lok Lok to suffer with her and decided to send Lok Lok to live with his mother Ah Shan.

However, Ah Shan has remarried and didn't want Lok Lok to ruin her new life with this new family. She refused to take Lok Lok back!

Siu Wai was so helpless that she thought of sending Lok Lok to an orphanage. Luckily, she loved Lok Lok so much that she could not let go. She gave up the idea in the last minute and Dai Fai, on the other hand, promised that he would take care of Lok Lok from then on. Siu Wai was very thankful of his care and support. The three of them were like a family. Though he was enthusiastic to help Siu Wai and Lok Lok, Dai Fai was very puzzled deep down. He used to gamble a lot in the past, so much that his wife could not bear with him and left with their son to Australia. This left Dai Fai with regret. He feared that he would see Siu Wai and Lok Lok as if they were his ex-wife and son. He didn't know if his love and attention was just to an act to compensate his wrong-doings in the past¡K

After serious consideration, Dai Fai decided to sell the mini-bus and start life anew. Siu Wai shared his feelings too as she didn't want to live in the shadow of yesterday. Both of them made up their mind to forget the past. They sold the mini-bus and look forward to turning a brand new page in their lives...
