Just as Qi Shuliang, Anna, and Third Grandma Qi were anxiously waiting, they received a phone call from Uncle Sam at home.
After hanging up, Qi Shuliang exclaimed with joy, "Tiantian has already called home, they've escaped, and now they're at a small police station called Kira. We're heading over right now."
"Really?" Anna said with tear-stained cheeks, tears streaming down her face. She hadn't closed her eyes all night, worried sick.
She dared not sleep, fearing that upon waking, she would hear devastating news about her daughter.
Third Grandma Qi was elderly and not in good spirits, but she also sat on the sofa, occasionally closing her eyes restlessly.
Anna urged her to rest in bed, but Third Grandma Qi simply couldn't sleep. Her own granddaughter was in trouble, and He Tiantian had been kidnapped—it was nearly the death of her.
"It's true," Qi Shuliang said. "Uncle Sam wouldn't tell a lie."
