Pawnshop owner Ko Yee-Man often upholds the 'emergency assistance' spirit – there will always be solutions to everything in life, with exception of his three beloved children: Oldest son Ko Wai-Ting and his wife Wan Yun-Han are a very loving couple, but their careers trip them up. Second daughter Ko Yue-Chu almost became the third party in a relationship but was fortunate enough that her bickering friend Lam Fat was there to pull her back up on her feet.
