家境富裕的秋薇招贅夫婿守義,婚姻美滿。秋薇久別重逢同窗老友麗雲,發現她遇人不淑,為扶養兒子落入風塵。秋薇十分照顧麗雲,未料她竟是守義多年前的舊情人。麗雲走避,風波卻起。雖是戀人歷經波折而後團圓的傳統通俗劇,但導演卻提出三角戀悲情之外的不同選擇。

 

Tshiu-bi and husband Siu-gi have a seemingly perfect though child-less marriage. When Tshiu-bi's friend, Le-hun, a single mother, is forced to work in a nightclub to raise her son, Tshiu-bi tries to help her. However, unknown to Tshiu-bi, Le-hun and Siu-gi were once lovers. To avoid complications, Le-hun moves away but runs into Siu-gi again in a nightclub. After a night together, Lehun becomes pregnant. Though seemingly a melodrama, The Husband's Secret differs from other films of the period in addressing female consciousness and mutual support between women.
