Spoilt by Fatty Zhen, the youngest daughter, Ke Ke, is well-educated but arrogant. On the other hand, Ke Lian and Ke Li's happiness have been short-changed to create more opportunities for their youngest sister.
Despite this, both Ke Lian and Ke Li are able to adapt better to society, unlike Fatty Zhen and Ke Ke, whose attitude puts people off. Ke Lian eventually manages to find true love with Lion King, while Ke Li finds happiness through her own family and career, and Ke Ke finds hope and joy in her new career and in turn, turns her love life back around by developing kindness and humility.
It is only in the face of an economic crisis and a stroke that Fatty Zhen did the arrogant Fatty Zhen and Ke Ke realise and learn about humility and the importance of maintaining good human relationships.

They have one daughter, Xiang Xiang, who later finds love with Zheng Yu, a manager at a local supermarket chain which is an arch competitor to the Lin family's business.
While Beautiful Connection reflects on the harsh realities and pressures of working life, it also shows that there will always be hope and warmth even during a challenging times such as an economic crisis.
