After hearing Yang Dong's words, Li Du asked curiously, "When did you arrive in America? Why did you come here?"
Yang Dong replied, "I came here to study. When I was in school, my family tried all sorts of ways to get me to become an American citizen, thinking that I can become successful here. In the end, after I graduated, I lost my job. I did not have the face to return home and so I can only try and make a living here."
Saying 65that, he shook his head helplessly.
Li Du said, "What's there to be ashamed about? Have you gotten your graduation certificate? If you got it, you can go home and look for a job there. After all, you will be considered an overseas candidate."
Yang Dong laughed bitterly. "The most embarrassing part is that I didn't get it. I didn't get my graduation certificate nor my degree!"
Li Du fell silent.
