At the moment he tasted the Shredded Eel in Garlic Sauce, Ma Yong's thoughts drifted far away...
To eight years ago.
Back then, he had just started university.
At the start of the school year, he was carrying a bag of luggage alone, with the admission notice and three thousand yuan his parents had scrimped and saved, he went from a remote small town to the bustling Yanjing all by himself.
But before he even had the chance to properly appreciate the splendor of this dream city...
He was already struggling with the high tuition and ensuing living expenses and other issues.
Every day felt like a two-headed dragon.
Overwhelming and frustrating!
Eventually, with the suggestion and help of teachers, he applied for a university student loan and finally paid the tuition.
He put all his thoughts and efforts into studying.
But those high-flying scores weren't enough to satisfy his hungry stomach.
He lived in poverty!
Once again troubled by money problems.
