「North City Commercial District.」
Walking down the bustling pedestrian street, Lin Fan stared at a large pawnshop by the roadside and murmured to himself, Mom, after a full four years, I can finally redeem your precious ring…
Four years ago, the Su family had gone completely bankrupt. Su Mengqing's gambling-addicted father, Su Guang, had vanished without a trace, while her brother, Su Gang, was seized by debt collectors, hung in a basement, and beaten to within an inch of his life. Zhang Meili and Su Mengqing begged their relatives and friends for money, only to be refused at every turn.
In desperation, Zhang Meili had run to the Suxin Clinic and knelt before Lin Fan's mother, Lin Suxin, weeping and pleading for help. She had once inadvertently seen a treasured ring of considerable value that Lin Suxin owned.
And so, Lin Suxin had pawned the ring to pay off Su Gang's gambling debts.
