Hard

YIN comes around and pretends that he has got back his memories. He says he recalls what happened the day YUNG died and asks to give evidence in the court. He claims that he did try to rescue YUNG and that SZ has deliberately set him up for she is not happy with the allocation of the legacy. His words have infuriated SZ immensely. YIN is found innocent and is released immediately. He is happy about the verdict while SZ is so angry and denounces him as a heartless, scheming monster. Yuk Lung Hin has been losing money and YEE notices that YIN has become more and more irritable. SZ and YIN meet in the legal firm but they see each other as strangers. MING has earned enough money to buy a house and his friends suggest that it is the right time for him to propose to SZ. YIN is looking for a superior Kam Sze jade stone but PANG manages to get it first. YIN begs MING to give it up but PANG refuses……

YIN claims that MING beat him up after he had rejected his request to withdraw from Yuk Lung Hin. HUNG believes YIN’s words and blames MING for having no gratitude to YIN. YIN pretends to be drunk and tries to intercede with YEE for himself. YEE believes that YIN did not mean to cause SING harm and she is of the opinion that MING has misunderstood YIN. YEE tries to explain to MING for YIN while MING reminds her to beware of her husband. SZ and MING have found BILL. BILL tells them the truth and promises to testify against YIN. YIN is arrested but LUNG does not believe that YIN is the killer of YUNG. He suspects SZ has deliberately set YIN up so that she will be the only one to inherit YUNG’s money. YEE is so confused and finds it difficult to establish who is telling the truth and who is not. YIN is taken to the court and BILL’s statements have put him in a very unfavorable situation……

YIN has been very grumpy recently. He suspects YEE has had an affair with MING and gives her a terrible dressing-down, which irks YEE greatly. YEE thinks he is being so unreasonable and decides to return to her father’s home with TUNG. SZ has been very perplexed these days. She needs someone to confide in but it is with regret that she cannot share her worries with MING. MING does not understand how she feels and has had a lot of doubts in his head. MING submits his resignation to YEE and YEE tries to persuade him to stay, but in vain. YIN asks MING to stay but deep down he is very happy to see him go. PANG, who would like to run a jade jewelry business, very much appreciates MING’s talents and invites him to collaborate with him. From the things left behind by YUNG, MING has discovered a photo of his father SING. He is shocked to know that YIN is the man who has caused SING’s death……

SZ is going on a date with MING but MING has got something urgent to deal with and needs to leave at once, which infuriates SZ. SZ’s grandfather MA has passed away. SZ is deeply saddened by his death and immediately flies to Canada to arrange his funeral. MING goes to see her off, and for this reason, he has missed an appointment with a very significant client and has in turn lost a deal. YIN, who has been jealous of MING, seizes the opportunity to slag him off. From the things left behind by MA, SZ has found a video cassette revealing how he and YIN used to smuggle jade stones in Burma. But before all the details are known, the video is finished. SZ reads YUNG’s diary again, from which she learns that YIN had indirectly caused the death of his friend CHUNG SING when they were in Burma. MING is invited for an interview with the media……

MING has invested in Yuk Lung Hin and has made a big deal with a client on his very first day of work. BILL tries to blackmail YIN but YIN does not give in. SZ meets BILL by chance and soon becomes suspicious of him. In order to find out the truth, SZ decides to start an investigation. Having heard that an existing client NGAI strongly believes in Feng Shui, MING suggests YIN alter his design. But YIN is too proud to take his advice. YEE modifies the design following MING’s suggestion and passes it to YIN. Though reluctant to abandon the original design, YIN finally gives in to YEE’s persuasion and adopts the revised design. NGAI has chosen MING’s design, and YIN, thinking that he has lost to MING, gets more and more jealous of him. SZ has located BILL but BILL refuses to reveal anything unless she promises to pay him a certain amount of money. YIN is enraged when he knows that BILL is going to reveal the truth to SZ……

YIN vaguely remembers that he had a quarrel with YUNG on the roof of the building and that a man with a birthmark on his face had been around at the time they were quarrelling. SZ asks YIN about YUNG’s diary but YIN seems to be trying to conceal something. YIN has found the only witness to the incident, BILL, who has a birthmark on his face. BILL tells him all the details of what happened that day. Having heard what BILL said, YIN feels astonished and heartbroken. SZ advises YIN to try hypnotherapy again but YIN has found a number of excuses to turn her down. YUNG’s father Big Brother MA has a stroke and has obtained the court’s permission to freeze YUNG’s assets, which really shocks YIN. MING knows Yuk Lung Hin is facing a financial crisis and thus reveals to YEE that he would like to invest in Yuk Lung Hin. With MING’s help, YEE has found CHEONG who has been keeping ‘Shap Tak’……

YIN decides to buy a jade stone, with which he hopes to earn back the money he has lost. He is confident that he will succeed. MING shows a few pieces of jade jewelry to the rich ladies. He has made a deal with one of the ladies, from which he has earned HK$3,000,000. MING and SZ are chuffed to pieces when they get the check. MING passes the check to YIN, hoping that the money can help him a bit. YIN, however, refuses to accept the money. YIN has bought a raw stone from Burma, which he thinks is of excellent quality, but out of the blue, the stone is an inferior one. YIN is very disappointed and deeply embarrassed. He has lost a great deal of money and he hopes he can solve his financial problems after inheriting YUNG’s property. YEE and YIN are getting married. On the wedding day, YIN tries to look happy and relaxed but deep down he feels extremely distressed and is burning with anxiety……

YIN is going to have another operation. SZ is very worried about her father, so MING tries to give her a few words of comfort. KIT’s plot succeeds – Yuk Lung Hin has suffered a great loss and its reputation has been tarnished. Now that he has got what he wants, KIT asks to withdraw from Yuk Lung Hin. Again and again KWAN stops YEE from calling the police. Though she knows it is KIT who has stolen the stones, YEE cannot do anything for there is no evidence to prove the allegation. YIN’s operation is very successful and he has restored his sight. YIN knows Yuk Lung Hin is undergoing a terrible upheaval and he vows to lead it out of the crisis. PANG tries to convince MING to sell ‘Shap Tak’ by offering him a number of financial advantages. MING, however, does not change his mind and PANG is so impressed by his personality……
