[Hong Kong-style tragic romance] + [The one who left must win them back] + [Two male leads]
A cold, solitary financial tycoon × an idealistic young architect
On the eve of Hong Kong's return to China in 1997, young architect Shen Jin, rejected ninety-eight times, receives a gold-embossed business card from Huo Siheng, the man in charge of Mingding Group, on a rain-lashed night in Lan Kwai Fong. “I'm in.”
The condition: three night cruises across Victoria Harbour each week on the Star Ferry.
He doesn't know that this scarred, cold man was once Huo Yan, who broke six of his enemy's ribs in Kowloon Walled City.
One wants to build a free park facing the sea. The other wants to settle old scores stained with blood.
Ninety-nine encounters, three hundred night cruises across Victoria Harbour, from testing the waters to falling hard, from misunderstandings to standing together in life and death.
In the end, during a blast in international waters, he walks toward Victoria Harbour amid a sky full of fireworks, wearing the white shirt he had on when they first met and the ring the other man left behind.
Though we could not share a bed in life, in death we shall share the sea.
