A cargo ship has set sail from the Philippines. Ship member Ma Dong Bao and his subordinates kill off everyone on the ship, but Cai Fu Lai survives the ordeal. Fu Lai wakes up and escapes with the use of a lifeboat. The cargo ship has been used by Long Hang, a Taiwanese company, for smuggling. It is managed by Wu Pin Rui, and is under investigation by the Taiwanese authorities. Guo Hao Sen is appointed as the general manager of Teng Sheng Bank’s Singapore branch, and he becomes the target of Xiao Ai, who is determined to marry into a rich family.
Long Hang’s Pin Rui and Shi Nai Da Trading Company’s successor Li Hao compete to bid for a tender with Teng Sheng Bank, leaving Hao Sen in a dilemma. Hao Sen welcomes them to his guesthouse, but both of them get into an argument. Hao Sen leaves them for a while, but comes back to find out that a fatal accident has happened. Zhi Ling, a hostess who had accompanied them to drink, has been killed and her body is found next to Li Hao, who had passed out. Pin Rui is nowhere to be found!
Li Hao insists that Pin Rui has framed him, but does not dare to alert the police. He orders his subordinates to bury Zhi Ling’s body in the guesthouse’s backyard. To prove he was not at the scene, Hao Sen calls Xiao Ai, whom he had met that night, and arranges to meet her. Both of them have a meal together, and while they appear to be engaged in conversation, they harbour other intentions towards each other.
Fu Lai is kept captive by Pin Rui, who injects drugs in him, and tortures him into telling them what had happened on the ship. Fu Lai finds a chance to escape. Hao Sen has a video conference with the Taiwan headquarters on the case of their ATM machines dispensing money, and suspects that Eric as the main culprit. Li Hao tells Hao Sen that he will find Eric and hand him over. Hao Sen’s housekeeper Uncle Yang realises that Zhi Ling’s boyfriend Ming Jie knew that she had gone to the guest house that night, so he stages a car accident to kill him.
Uncle Yang breaks into Ming Jie’s house, and forges a suicide note for Ming Jie’s death, but police officer Jia Xin does not believe that Ming Jie will commit suicide. Xiao Ai joins an advertising company that is responsible for Hao Sen’s company’s advertisements. Both of them interact often and grow closer. A video that Zhi Ling recorded to wish her son Xiao Ji happy birthday is uploaded online. Jia Xin tracks the source of the video, and finds out that it was sent from April’s phone. April was also a hostess that night, but she has already fled to Taiwan.
Hao Sen asks Linda for the backstory on the relationship between his brother Yao Sen and Long Hang. Linda reveals that it is actually Yan Feng, the Vice President, who first started working together with Long Hang. As the Wu family has ties with the underworld, Yao Sen has repeatedly clashed with Yan Feng over this. Subsequently, Li Hao decides to bid for the project when Pin Rui forcefully steps into his turf.
With the help of his informers, Ting Xuan successfully joins Pin Rui's organisation. When he arrives at Pin Rui's bar, he discovers his men trying to pin down Cai Fu Lai's location and joins the gang members to search for him. Cai Fu Lai suffers from a drug addiction relapse and is discovered by Ah Bing, Pin Rui's right-hand man. Ah Bing injects drugs into Cai Fu Lai, causing him to die.
Linda discovers a listening device planted underneath a table and knows her movements are being monitored. She quickly destroys and discards the device. She logs into her online bank account and transfers all her funds into Peter's account. She asks Peter to wait for her at home as she has something to tell him. However, Linda dies in a car accident on the way home as a result of dodging a motorcycle.
Pin Rui brings Ting Xuan and gang to Li Hao's casino and questions Li Hao if he is responsible for Linda's accident. Li Hao denies and the two get into a fight. Upon hearing about the fight, Jia Xin rushes down. Li Hao sees Jia Xin again and her cool personality leaves an even deeper impression on him.
Hao Sen asks Chen Chu to help investigate on the correspondence between his brother Yao Sen and his uncle Yan Feng, Shi Na Da and Long Hang. Chen Chu said he is not skilled in hacking and asks Hao Sen to find someone else for help. Hao Sen thought of Eric and asks him to help. Little does Hao Sen know, the email he sent to Eric was also sent to Chen Chu's mailbox. Everything seems to be under Chen Chu's control.
Yan Feng holds a press conference in Taiwan, and announces his partnership with foreign organizations. Feeling anxious, Hao Sen sends an email to urge Eric to quickly investigate on the relationship between Yan Feng and these companies, but Eric does not respond. Hao Sen is shocked when Yan Feng suddenly texts him to inform him that the main suspect in the ATM hacking case has died in a car accident.
Ting Xuan is captured and dragged to the warehouse by Li Hao’s men. Li Hao plans to kill Pin Rui’s driver and frame Ting Xuan for it. He threatens Ting Xuan to find out about Pin Rui’s departure details and says that he will arrange for Ting Xuan to be with Pin Rui. Under Li Hao’s secret arrangement, Ting Xuan becomes Pin Rui’s driver and starts collecting evidence of Pin Rui’s crimes.
Hao Sen goes to meet Wei Yun, but to his surprise, he sees Eric instead. Eric expresses that his life is being threatened, while Hao Sen is also being monitored by Yan Feng. Eric agrees to help Hao Sen hack into the biotechnology company to steal data, but on the condition that Hao Sen must allow him to return to work at the bank and not to pursue the fact that he faked his education credentials. Hao Sen agreed.
While trying on their wedding outfits, Xiao Ai thought of Zhi Ling and feels depressed. Hao Sen is shocked to discover that the girl who was killed at the club house previously was Xiao Ai’s good friend. He asks Pin Rui if he is aware of this but he denies it and said the girl was invited by Li Hao.
Li Hao threatens Ting Xuan to provide information about Pin Rui. Ting Xuan deliberately leaves his phone turned on in order to let Jia Xin hear their conversation. Jia Xin finally sees Li Hao’s true colours and decides to cut off ties with him. When the police finds the suspect of Cai Fu Lai’s murder case, Jia Xin rushes down to the scene to catch the suspect and sees Li Hao. Jia Xin nearly gets injured in the process but is saved by Li Hao when he takes a bullet for her.
Zhi Ling’s dead body was found at the clubhouse. Uncle Yang claims he only saw Zhi Ling’s body when he returned to the clubhouse on the night of the incident, and did not see Pin Rui, Li Hao and the others. As he was worried that Hao Sen would be implicated, he decided to bury the corpse. The police detains Uncle Yang for suspicion of murder as he did not make a report after discovering the corpse and did not have an alibi.
Xiao Ai wishes to return to Taiwan to help Hao Sen. Hao Sen refuses and insists that she stays in Singapore to handle Uncle Yang’s matter. Hao Sen mentions that only thing that he can do is for Uncle Yang is to hire a top-notch lawyer to help Uncle Yang win the case. A disheartened Xiao Ai said that her superior and colleagues have been complaining about her because of her recent dealings with these matters, Hao Sen asks Xiao Ai to resign instead and she feels even more disappointed after hearing that.
As Xiao Ai often took time off to settle her private matters, she gets fired from her job. She is astonished and dumbfounded when she subsequently discovers that Hao Sen was behind it. When Xiao Ai and Hao Sen meet up, they feel disconnected and distant. Xiao Ai reveals about her relationship with Zhi Ling and insists on adopting Xiao Ji. Hao Sen is speechless and a disappointed Xiao Ai suggests a break up.
Ting Xuan heads to the Teng Sheng clubhouse backyard with a shovel to dig for evidence and true enough, he finds a crucial piece of evidence – a knife covered with blood stains. The forensic department discovers that the blood stains on the blade belong to Zhi Ling and that the fingerprints on the handle of the knife have also been destroyed. After restoring the weapon, it has been confirmed that the fingerprints belong to Pin Rui. The police issues a warrant for his arrest.
When the news of Pin Rui being wanted for murder is broadcast on television, Hao Sen knows that he can no longer serve as the General Manager of Teng Sheng Bank. He hands over his position to his deputy General Manager and decides to bear all the consequences. Pin Rui holds Xiao Ai and Ting Xuan captive. After Xiao Ai reads the letter that Ting Xuan has written to her, she finally understands his intention. The police ambushes Pin Rui and in the chaos, Ting Xuan gets injured while protecting Xiao Ai…

Cai Fu Lai, Eric and Dong Huang are good friends who grew up together. Eric faked his education credentials to work at Singapore’s Teng Sheng Bank, but his act gets exposed by Linda, the director, and is threatened by her. Eric is forced to agree to an invitation from his “online” friend Justin, to head to Taiwan for an ATM withdrawal test…
Eric and Dong Huang unknowingly get involved in an ATM heist after participating in the test. Justin deceives Eric about the program being bought by a security company and they would pay him, putting Eric at ease. Teng Sheng Bank found that the ATM was attacked by hackers and 80 million was “robbed”. Vice president Guo Yan Feng ordered the police and media to keep it a secret, however, the news still spread online, and rookie reporter Liu Wei Yun finds out about the incident.
Teng Sheng Bank did not report the case. Wei Yun’s cousin, Dong Jie is a police officer. He asked Wei Yun to release the news that Teng Sheng Bank’s ATM has been robbed, wanting to use the pressure of public opinion to force the bank to report the case, so that the police is able to commence an official investigation. Wei Yun happily agrees. The Taiwan police officially formed an ATM hacking case team. Eric sees the news reports on the hacking case and has a bad feeling about it.
Eric suspects that Justin had planned to involve him in the ATM hacking case, so he tries to contact him but Justin has cut off contact. Wei Yun finds a Teng Sheng Bank name card in Eric’s clothes, and various signs lead her to suspect that Eric is involved in the ATM hacking case.

The engine on the yacht breaks down and it stops moving. Eric and Wei Yun are stranded in the sea, and they get to know each other better. Eric divulges to her that he is in conflict with the director at Teng Sheng Bank, and that his director would gladly make him the scapegoat for the incident. He tells her that he will find evidence by himself and use it to negotiate with the police. The yacht resumes power and can return to the port, but Eric finds out that Ma Dong Bao is there waiting for him……
The Singapore police finds a program related to the Teng Sheng Bank hacking case from Eric's desktop and officially lists Eric as a wanted criminal. To dodge responsibility, Teng Sheng Bank categorises this as an employee theft, and vice president Guo Yan Feng appoints a lawyer to file an official summons against Eric to repay the bank 100 million yuan!
Dong Huang learns from the TV news report that the process of him withdrawing the money was recorded down by Eric on his phone on the day of the testing. Shocked and angry, he questions Eric. Eric said that he was framed and asks Dong Huang to believe in him once more. But the two have lost their trust in each other and their years of friendship has come to naught.
Eric accidentally causes Dong Huang to be injured. He learned from the news that Andre has fled to the south, and calls Zhen Di for help to look after Dong Huang while he heads to the south to look for Andre. Before leaving, Eric apologises to Dong Huang, and reveals to him what he has been through all these years. The two finally reconciles.
Eric posts a notice on the hackers' site to find someone to impersonate Justin for a USD50,000 reward. Unexpectedly, Picaud takes the bait and arranges to meet Eric, but he spreads this information to the media and the police at the same time. Brother Fa leads the team to ambush Eric. Eric spots the police officers and flees the scene.
Eric receives an email from Peter, stating that Linda was killed because of her secret dealings with the Guo family, Long Hang and Shi Na Da. Eric is worried that these files will further implicate him and he takes a step back, even though he had initially promised Hao Sen that he would continue to unlock the encrypted files.
Wei Yun’s car gets burned down. Eric, who had been driving the car, is nowhere to be found, and everyone thinks he has met with misfortune. Eric quietly looks for Brother Fa to explain to him about the situation and seeks for his support. Brother Fa is skeptical about it and arranges to meet with Wei Yun. Wei Yun passes Brother Fa the audio recording of their conversation that she has secretly recorded and tells him that she believes Eric is being framed and is not the master mind of the ATM hacking case.
Eric learns from the news that Wei Yun is putting herself in danger by investigating the case. He couldn’t help but show up in front of Wei Yun as he is worried about her. Seeing that Eric is still alive, Wei Yun excitedly rushes forward to hug him and cries in his arms. Eric is surprised and touched by her action. Wei Yun tells Eric that she saw Dong Huang.
Hao Sen travels to Taiwan to meet Wei Yun but unexpectedly sees Eric instead. Hao Sen is surprised when Eric tells Hao Sen that Yan Feng had been monitoring his every move. Eric requests Hao Sen to sign an agreement to ensure that he can continue to work at Teng Sheng after he returns to Singapore. Hao Sen agrees and wants Eric to continue to help him decrypt the files.
Picaud impersonates as Brother Fa and sends an email to Eric, resulting in Eric’s laptop to be attacked by a virus and causing all of the files to be locked. Eric logs into cloud storage and is relieved he has made a backup of Linda’s file. Eric says that he will try to fix the virus in his laptop and lets Brother Fa to investigate on Picaud's whereabouts.

Dong Huang makes his way down to the hospital to find Brother Fa to inquire about Eric’s whereabouts and tries to prove that he is Eric’s friend. Brother Fa ultimately believes him and allows him to speak to Eric on the phone. Dong Huang informs Eric of Zhen Di’s passing. Eric hears Dong Huang’s choked voice and realises Dong Huang has fallen for Zhen Di.
Wei Yun discovers that the article she has written has been taken down. This affects her confidence level and harbours the thought of resigning from her job. Eric notices Wei Yun packing her luggage and points out that she is only avoiding the issue. Wei Yun criticises Eric for just wanting to return to the bank to earn a stable income by being a white collar professional. Eric is hurt and leaves, leaving Wei Yun feeling vexed.
Eric tells Wei Yun that her supervisor was blackmailed over nude photos and had to forsake journalistic ethics and integrity as a result. Wei Yun is touched when Eric says he is willing to be interviewed by her for the hacking case, even if it means that he is unable to return to work at the bank. Eric intends to confess his feelings to Wei Yun but backs out in the end.
Yan Feng uses the bank’s real financial numbers to threaten Hao Sen. Hao Sen warns that both of them will be destroyed if the data is disclosed. Yan Feng sneers at him and said it is not the right time yet to reveal his trump card, and sarcastically assures Hao Sen that his position at the bank is safe for now.
