In the glittering city of Ceng Ho Sian that seems brimming with blessings, lies the life story of Shi Men, a wealthy young master trapped in the vortex of worldly pleasures. His inheritance from his father, a large medicine shop and a grand house in the city, has led him to a life of luxury. But behind all this, Shi Men is a man known as Kongcu, a philanderer, a womanizer who is never satiated with worldly pleasures.
Shi Men is surrounded by nine loyal friends who accompany him in various revelries. Ying Po Kui and Cia Si Ta are two of them, both becoming Shi Men's right hand in exploring every corner of the city looking for pleasure. Ying, the woman broker, and Cia, a nobleman's descendant tempted by a debauched lifestyle, are part of the circle that pushes Shi Men beyond moral boundaries.
Meanwhile, Shi Men's wife, Goat Toanio, who is wise and gentle, tries to balance her husband's wild life. But the temptations of the world are too strong, and Shi Men continues to sink deeper into the abyss of destruction. As Shi Men and his friends plan a lavish annual gathering, Goat Toanio feels burdened, realizing that her husband's friends are more like devils than ordinary people.
Amidst this seemingly prosperous life, Ceng Ho Sian hides a dark secret, where money and power become the main tools to get everything one desires. Shi Men, with his charm and wealth, becomes a symbol of the moral decay lurking behind the city's glitz. But for how long can Shi Men withstand this deceit and hypocrisy? And is there a way back from this life filled with trickery and hollow pleasures?
The story of Shi Men in Ceng Ho Sian is about the fall of a man trapped in the world's trap, where lust and greed blur the boundaries between right and wrong. Will Shi Men find enlightenment amid the darkness, or will he drown in the emptiness he created himself?
