Lotus (Joey Wong Cho-Yin) declines to accept forgetfulness before being reincarnated and only wants revenge on those that caused her death. Reborn as Shan in the midst of the cultural revolution, she is first raped by her teacher (Ku Feng) and betrayed by the object of her affections Wu Long (Wilson Lam Jun-Yin). Excluded, she lives by herself, with the locals treating her as a promiscuous good for nothing. Wu Ta (Eric Tsang) meets her and takes her back to Hong Kong to be his bride. On their wedding day, his grandmother refuses to accept her, saying she is bad luck. Wu Ta, a relatively simple man, tries to give her everything, including a car chauffeured by Wu Long. Shan does not really love Wu Ta and tries to seduce Wu Long. As she does so, memories of her past life come back and slowly Lotus begins to take over, resulting in an affair with Simon (Tan Lap-Man Pal Sinn). As the past and present begin to merge, the sins of the past begin to repeat themselves as events spiral out of control.
