On a previous afternoon, a young partner came running to Mr. Yang and said that his son had fallen into the pool and drowned. Mr. Yang rushed over to check and found his son in a lime pool. He jumped into the pool, enduring excruciating pain, to pull his son out... Five minutes later, both father and son were rushed to Pingshan Hospital for emergency treatment.

The police stated that they would need to observe the child's condition before making a decision regarding any action against Mr. Lin, the owner of the lime pool.
On the morning of the following day, reporters at Longgang Central Hospital saw both heavily burned Xiao Hao and his father, Mr. Yang. Xiao Hao was entirely wrapped in white bandages, lying precariously in the intensive care unit.
