Unexpectedly, after almost a year here, there's still no trace of his father, and Yang Ling's mother fell ill due to overwork.
This made the already impoverished family even worse off.
Yang Ling saw his mother fall ill, so he took a leave of absence from school and went out to find a job to help out.
But he was too young, and no company or corporation was willing to hire him. After much wandering, he finally found work in the snack street.
He almost got cheated by a black-hearted boss; if Ye Chen hadn't been there, he might have worked for nothing.
Ye Chen felt sorry when hearing his plight and, seeing he was about the same age but had to leave school to earn money for his mother's medical treatment, felt compassion.
Though he lived alone, Ye Long never restricted him financially because of this.
So after dinner, Ye Chen dialed 120, took Yang Ling with him and the ambulance to their home, and sent Yang Ling's mother to the hospital.
