Zhang Zicheng (Chen Hanwei) is a senior copywriter at an advertising firm when he was retrenched. With an overly generous wife Hu Jiaofen (Zoe Tay), a son Zhang Yizheng (Edwin Goh) who wants to study in England to be with his girlfriend and a daughter Zhang Yijing (He Yingying) who aspires to be a model, Zhang Zicheng is in need of money. He ends up as a delivery man and one day meets a mysterious man who passes him an expired TOTO slip. He ends up buying the same numbers on the expired TOTO and miraculously wins the top prize. For fear of losing his prize money, Zhang Zicheng hides his win from family and friends, but the stress takes its toll on him, and when his family finds out about his win, things start to fall apart… [1]
