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. As for youngest daughter Ko Yue-Bo, she is a fast and dodgy person. She only knows how to chat day and night, and has no integrity.
