Ye Ye has incredible influence on Adeline's life, as he is one of her main sources of support. He believes in Adeline, and he encourages her to break away from life under Niang's thumb.

Ye Ye grew close to Third Brother and me and often escorted the two of us to picnics at Du Mei Gardens, a public park one tram stop from home.

There was a knock on our door and Ye Ye entered. He regarded me with dismay as I lowered my head in shame at my outburst. I thought he would scold me, but instead he turned to Aunt Baba. “Let her study! She won’t disappoint you. When you’ve reached my age, you know which children are weak and which are strong. Don’t ask her too many questions. Don’t criticize her or tear her down. I don’t want her to grow up like Big Sister. She is going to be different!”

His voice was full of love, bringing back long-suppressed memories of home and Shanghai and Aunt Baba.
