烛影照魂归
As the wealthy Ha Mung Shan nears death, he asks his son, Chung Ping, to marry his fiancée, Ng Yuk Keng. However, Yuk Keng loves Chung Ping’s brother, Bo Ming. To avoid upsetting his father, Chung Ping pretends that a singer, Su Qiu, is Yuk Keng and brings her home. Meanwhile, Yuk Keng’s aunt, Xing Hong, covets her father’s inheritance and attempts to kill Su Qiu, framing Chung Ping. Su Qiu survives, cared for by the Fu family. Later, Xing Hong kills Yuk Keng to live with Bo Ming, but he refuses. Taking the inheritance, Xing Hong stays with the Fu family and regrets her actions. Ha Mung Shan then arranges a new marriage for Chung Ping. Su Qiu, seeking revenge, disguises herself as a ghost on the wedding night, exposing the truth. Bo Ming confronts Chung Ping, and Xing Hong confesses her guilt. Mung Shan realizes Bo Ming is his son, and Chung Ping reunites with Su Qiu, leading to a happy ending.
