Synopsis by Jonathan Crow

Carina Lau stars in the affable sex comedy, directed by Terry Tong Kei-ming about Siu-hung, a country girl from mainland China who ventures to Hong Kong to stay with her sister Kiki (Angie Leung Wan-yui). There she learns that sis is no longer a clerk at a department store and has moved on to be a high-class hooker. Soon after arriving in the big city, her luggage is swiped and she realizes that her rustic ways make her a grade-A hick. She eventually happens upon Sam (Simon Yam Tat-wah) who works as a gigolo at the same club Kiki works at. After making a mess out of waitressing, Siu-hung decides to follow her sister and become a whore, too. Soon she is a highly sought after prostitute who gets an offer to become the "personal assistant" of the depressed scion of a wealthy merchant. Meanwhile, as sparks start to fly between Siu-hung and her new charge, Sam realizes that he has also fallen for the lass.
