Soon after, Bo wants to go to Japan to see snow and for a trip. The trip was on a special discount. Ah Wah did not want to, it was too expensive, since Bo has a debt to Ah Wah's parents. Ah Wah suggested to go to Shenzhen, but Bo was too mad. She ran out of the travel agency. It was at that very moment that their once "perfect" love had started to fade.

Ah Wah followed Bo home. However, when Bo and Ah Wah went home, they had another argument. Ah Wah was chased out to the street, and he did not want to be homeless. Therefore, he went to Josephine's house to stay instead.

Philip was "stealing" toilet paper, and actually he was doing a study of toilet paper's quality. Bo followed him to a restaurant, where Bo heard Philip explaining his studies over and over again. Despite of that, Bo and Philip became good friends.

Next, Ah Wah's parent visited the newly married couple. Ah Wah and Bo pretended they were in love, but it was too difficult for them. Finally, they had an argument. They want to be divorced. Everyone was shocked.

Once, the couple had met again in the elevator hall. Ah Wah was with Josephine, while Bo was with Philip. They had a short chat.

Finally, Bo decided to work outside of Hong Kong. However, there was no taxi for her. Ah Wah comes along, and promised that if there is no way Ah Wah could provide taxi for Bo, then they will have divorce. Ah Wah did not want to end his marriage, he recalled how he had a lot of fun and happy times with Bo. Ah Wah called taxi through his cell phone. He called at least 4 times.

Bo saw how Wah was serious about their marriage. Bo also burst out in tears. The couple united.

Bo and Ah Wah went to Japan finally with a special discounted price for their make-up honeymoon. They took various pictures and displayed them in the living room. They seemed happy.

However, at the end of the film, the director reveals that Josephine and Ah Wah, and Bo and Philip are still together. Josephine text messaged Ah Wah, and Bo wrote a note on a piece of purple tissue paper to Phillip.
