Sam and Michael pick up a lamp by chance. Out of curiosity, Sam touches the lamp and releases a witch named LAM Ah Chun (Cecilia Cheung). Ah Chun, indeed, is a student from a witch school. Her mission is to grant out three wishes for anyone who releases her out from the lamp. However, Sam believes to earn his living through himself, not any magic power. He turns down the three granted wishes. Ah Chun is forced to stay until she can fulfill her mission.
Ah Chun has no choice but to pester Sam to make wishes. Sam insists not doing so, believes his own ability can give him a better future such as exchanging tiles by feet beneath the mahjong table.
