这一段看着很唏嘘:
A good boy without a lot of resources.
"My mom and I grew up quite poor, we didn''t really have very much money," Chen said. "She would just scrap together some dollars and try to pay Raf. Raf obviously knew about the situation and thanks to the kindness of his heart was able to continue taking me in, taking as much money as we could provide him. But then at a certain point, he was like, ''I don''t really need that. I just want to help you achieve the goals that you want.''
"I''m forever grateful for that support.''"
Arutunian said Chen''s mother would be "giving me money in this hand and I would take it in this hand and give it back to him."
Or at least he would try.
"He''d give me the money back sometimes, but I would always try to stick it in his pocket and run away," Chen said.
Wang made sure her son had everything he needed.
"She certainly faced a lot," Chen said. "A lot of it she sheltered from me, so I don''t even know a lot of the details. When I ask her she always just gets very upset."

According to The Salt Lake City Tribune, Chen’s mother, Hetty Wang, promised him and his siblings that if they won anything significant, they’d go to Disneyland to celebrate. But Chen won his sixth straight national figure skating championship shortly after she made that promise, and he outright refused (这个地方其实写错了,实际上这是发生在2017年他第一次拿全美冠军以后).
“I don’t know why Nathan was so sensitive about it,” Wang said. “He knew that financially [things were] so hard because I was working so many different jobs at one time to make money to support his everything. He knew that financially it would be so hard for me.”
