Synopsis
Introduction
Bao Pengju (Huang Wenyong), a Regimental Sergeant Major in his camp, lost his wife many years ago and became the sole parent given the burden of bringing up his children of four. He now runs his family like a military camp, with duties like area cleaning and breakfast preparation being the norm. Pengju has three sons and one daughter. His daughter is Bao Wenwei (Rui En), an advertising executive. Pengju's way of running the family also means that Wenwei has little chance of living life as a woman. Wenwei became more of a tomboy than a woman, and she is resentful towards her father because of that.
Bao Wenjing (Tay Pinghui) is an officer in the Special Operations Force and is the source of Pengju's pride and joy. Wenjing's love interest happened to be another officer that he stumbled upon in camp: Ouyang Pei Pei. Pei Pei is a mysterious officer with a past whom even her close friends were not so clear of yet. She wasn't aware of Wenjing's feelings yet. Although intelligent and skilled at his work, Wenjing is extremely shy in front of Pei Pei, so much so that his tongue is tied when in front of her.
Bao Wenzhong (Bryan Wong) is a computer engineer. His sense of humor and easy-going nature makes him popular with women, often giving them the wrong idea. This resulted in Wenzhong having run-ins with psychotic women obssessed with him. This however, does not stop him from having his own ideals of love. As for Bao Wenguo (Nat Ho), he awaits enlistment into National Service but resents it because of the pressure from his father, and often resorts to malingering to escape from camp trainings.
