"In the hotel we stayed at before," the young man replied.

"Do the people who kidnapped you know the place?" Qi Yun continued to ask.

The young man shook his head: "They didn't ask about that, just told us to call home and get money sent over."

"Alright, go get your passports first."

Half an hour later, the group arrived at the hotel. The young man had booked a room for seven days earlier, so the luggage was still in the guest room.

Inside the room, Qi Yun lit a cigarette and handed his phone to the young man: "Call your family."

The young man took the phone, his fingers trembling as he dialed the familiar number, and the call quickly connected.

"Dad!"

"Xiao Qing and I are okay now, someone saved us."

"No, just some minor injuries, Brother Qi has already found a doctor to help us handle them."

"We're at the hotel now, Brother Qi said he'll send us home when it's light."

"Yes, he's right here."

The young man appeared fairly calm as he went over to Qi Yun and handed the phone over: "Brother Qi, my dad wants to say a few words to you."

Qi Yun nodded and took the phone.

"Hello, how do you do?"

"Are you Mr. Qi? Thank you so much for saving my son!" The voice on the other end belonged to a middle-aged man, slightly choked with emotion.

Qi Yun chuckled lightly: "We're all fellow countrymen, no need to be so polite."

"I just happened to see them being kidnapped last night, and luckily I have friends here who figured out where they were being held, so I just went ahead and rescued them."

"Yes, yes, yes, we're all fellow countrymen, luckily Xiao Hao had good fortune to meet Mr. Qi, thank you, thank you so much!" The other end continued to express endless gratitude.

"Haha, as long as they're okay. I'm planning to head back to Bird City today. Where do the two kids need to go? I can get them on a plane," Qi Yun asked, pretending not to know.

"No need to trouble you, Mr. Qi, their mother is already over there. I'll notify her to come over shortly," the middle-aged man replied.

Qi Yun nodded: "Okay, I'll wait at the hotel. Once you arrive, I'll leave."

"Alright, thank you!" The middle-aged man thanked him again, "By the way, did you say you're heading to Bird City today?"

"Yes."

"That's great," the middle-aged man raised his voice a little, "Our home is also in Bird City. When you arrive, give me a call; I must thank you in person."

Qi Yun pretended to hesitate for a moment, then smiled: "Alright, let's find a place to sit down tonight."

"Okay, let's do that. I'll send the kid's mom to the hotel right away."

After ending the call, Qi Yun handed the phone to the young man again: "Have her call home too, to let them know she's safe."

The young man nodded, took the phone, and handed it to the girl named Xiao Qing.

Two minutes later, the phone was back in Qi Yun's hands, and there was another round of gratitude on the other end, with a similar proposal to thank him in person once they knew Qi Yun would be in Bird City.

Unable to refuse their kindness, Qi Yun reluctantly agreed.

Over forty minutes later, hurried footsteps could be heard in the corridor outside, mixed with the sound of a woman sobbing.

The two kids heard the noise and quickly went to the door to open it.

Quite a few people were outside, with two middle-aged women standing in front, followed by seven or eight others.

After the two kids recounted the events to their mothers, the two women rushed over to Qi Yun, grabbed his hands, and started thanking him again.

"Haha, there's no need for that, sisters. I just happened to be there," Qi Yun, though a bit uncomfortable being held onto, understood a mother's feelings.

"No matter what, you're a lifesaver for our children and a benefactor to our two families!"

"Yes, thank you so much. If anything had happened to Xiao Qing, I wouldn't know how to go on living."

The two women spoke as they wiped their tears.

"Did Xiao Hao say you're returning to Bird City? We're also from Bird City, and now that the kids have been found, we need to go back too. Once we get back, we must properly thank you."
