Lin Shuzhen, a refugee who drifted from Yunnan to Hong Kong in the 1970s, struggles to get by in a cage-home district. Her husband is a hopeless gambler, so she bears the burden of supporting the family alone. Then, when her son is two, she suffers the devastating loss of her eldest child, Chen Jingxuan. From then on, she and her younger son, Chen Jinghui, depend on each other in the fruit market, laboring day and night.
Years later, the wheels of fate begin to turn. Chen Jingxuan accidentally saves Lin Shuzhen from being hit by a car. A familiar feeling, bound by blood, lingers in their hearts, but they soon part again. Meanwhile, the fruit market is plunged into crisis by the real estate boom, and the landlord, Huang Yaowen, makes life miserable for the tenants with his eviction tactics. Chen Jingxuan and Chen Jinghui meet amid the turmoil. From misunderstanding to joining forces, they stand together against the forces of evil.
The brothers not only recognize each other in the midst of adversity, but each also makes his mark in the business world. Chen Jinghui becomes a stock-market sharpshooter, while Chen Jingxuan takes over his adoptive father's business empire. With love, family, and ambition intertwined, they write their own legend amid the tides of the times, ultimately reunite their family, and become the envy of all.
