Despite of that, Bo and Phillip became good friends.

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. Each time, he begged the taxi driver, about his story, and how Bo will act if there is no taxi. For the last time, Ah Wah had tears in his eyes, but it was no use.

Bo saw how Wah was serious of their marriage. Bo also burst out in tears. The couples 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 Phillip are still together. Josephine text messaged Ah Wah, and Bo wrote a note on a piece of purple tissue paper to Phillip.
