Boss Lee reassured him that if he ever needed help again, he could visit the shop or call anytime. He hoped his gesture would aid in the man's recovery, expressing a wish for more kindness in the world.
This act of generosity not only provided immediate relief for the customer but also sparked a wave of positivity across social media.

Hari ini, saya mengalami satu kejadian yang sangat menyentuh hati. Seorang pelanggan datang ke kedai saya dengan membawa Xiaomi 13 untuk dijual. Selepas bertanya, barulah saya tahu bahawa dia ingin menjual telefonnya untuk mendapatkan wang bagi merawat kakinya. Kakinya mengalami luka yang teruk akibat diabetes, dan dia tidak ada pilihan lain selain menjual telefonnya untuk mendapatkan rawatan. Apabila mendengar kisahnya, air mata saya hampir mengalir. Akhirnya, saya berkata kepadanya, “Jangan jual telefon awak. Saya akan beri awak wang untuk merawat kaki awak.” Pada saat itu, dia menangis teresak-esak mendengar apa yang saya katakan. Saya juga memberitahunya bahawa jika dia menghadapi kesulitan, dia boleh datang ke kedai saya atau hubungi saya bila-bila masa. Sebenarnya, masih ramai orang di luar sana yang memerlukan bantuan. Saya hanya mampu membantu setakat kemampuan saya. Semoga sahabat ini diberi kesembuhan dan kesejahteraan.
