Lam Ping (Kate Tsui) is the daughter of a rich man, who falls in love with Mao Chi (Sammul Chan). Unfortunately for Ping and her father, Chi is a conman who is only interested in her money and plans to get rid of her and her father after they get married so he can take over the whole inheritance. Lui Sau (Bosco Wong) is a police officer, who has a crush on Ping, which is not reciprocated. He is investigating Chi, but can't quite get enough evidence to bring him to justice. Edit Translation

Strong Mystery, Weak Performances

The Price of Greed had a really strong and intriguing story. The mystery and case solving kept things interesting throughout the series, especially with how each clue slowly connected together over time. The drama did a good job building suspense and making viewers question the motives of different characters. Some of the investigations and twists were genuinely engaging, and the pacing of the mystery made it easy to stay invested from episode to episode. Even when certain parts of the drama felt weak, the mystery element was strong enough to keep the show entertaining.

Bosco Wong did a great job. His portrayal of Lui Sau as a police officer was nicely executed, although it didn’t really show anything new that we haven’t already seen from his acting before. Even so, he still managed to carry many of the stronger moments in the drama alongside Kingdom Yuen, who also delivered a standout performance.

On the other hand, Kate Tsui and Sammul Chan gave pretty terrible performances. Their acting felt weak and unconvincing, which made some scenes harder to take seriously.

Shirley Yeung’s acting was also quite annoying at times. Her expressions while singing felt awkward and unnatural, which made those scenes uncomfortable to watch.
