Things not going well in life? Uncle is here to help! In a smart suit, Lam Muk Sam looks mature and reliable, when he's actually money-hungry and honey-tongued, and often resorts to tricks.

Sam got divorced in his younger years, and his wife got custody of their daughter Lam Ma Sha. The mother and daughter then moved to the US. But good times don't last. In the poor post-pandemic economy, the car dealership decides to lay him off because of his high pay. Ending up middle-aged and unemployed, Sam, who's always loved to flaunt, hits rock bottom. But then his daughter returns from overseas and gives him the idea of 'Uncle for Rent'! Sam is reluctant at first but later wants to make a fortune and turn his life around with this business. In the end, he finds that Uncle for Rent helps him tidy up his messy life and return to his true self.

Over time, the uncles find their values and rediscover their passion for life through their work. While Lam Muk Sam solves his clients' problems, he also solves his own. All this is part of a learning process.

It happened that Dr. genius Bo Yang secretly created the intelligent companion robot "Friday". As a last resort, Dr. Fu Yang hired his former assistant Yang Shan Shan to replace him.

I found that as long as there is a place where "Friday" is present, the ground can come into contact with humans and no longer be allergic. This discovery made him even more inseparable from "Friday". Lu Kun's warmth and innocence and love for "Friday" gradually broke Yang Shan Shan's heart. Knowing that deception may cause Lu Tun's illness to worsen or even die, Yang Shan Shan had to bury the truth about not being a robot.

    Lu Kun's rival, Li Jing Cheng, secretly investigated that Lu Kun was secretly working on a robotics project. Li Jing Cheng also discovered about "Friday". At the same time, the truth about the car accident more than ten years resurfaced.
