Plot Mistakes are part and parcel of life. Only when one realizes where his fault lies, is one deserving of a second chance. Those who are given a second chance are usually grateful and work harder. Zheng Mei Mei (Huang Biren), after serving her jail term, got to know Zhuang Ying Xiong (Thomas Ong), a son of a wealthy man. In a bid to win over his father’s trust, he invested in “Mei Mei’s Kitchen” for Mei Mei to run. With his backing and her hard work, the business took off. She also employed several ex-convicts to help out in the shop, giving them a second chance in life as they experience various setbacks that will test their limits.
