Chapter 412: Phone Call to Parents
Seeing Huo Yijia’s state, Qin Dandan was also disappointed, but it had nothing to do with her anymore. She still had her own matters to deal with, so she didn’t have the energy to save others.
Qin Dandan took the phone from the bodyguard and dialed her home number. She considered herself fearless…but once the phone rang, she couldn’t help but hold her breath.
At this moment, Qin Dandan was especially afraid of hearing her parents’ voices. It wasn’t that her parents would beat and scold her like Huo Yijia’s parents. Qin Dandan was more concerned about hearing bad news about her parents.
Soon, the call went through. A familiar yet strange voice came from the other end.
“Who is it?”
Qin Dandan instantly burst into tears. She suppressed her sobs, but she could not hide them. She cried out.
“Mom!”
…..
The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment before panicking.
“Dandan? Are you Dandan?”
“Mom, it’s me. Mom, I’m going home!” Qin Dandan sobbed, and the person on the other end of the phone was even more panicked, but more than that, she was pleasantly surprised.
“It’s really Dandan! Dandan, where have you been all these years!”
Qin Dandan wiped away her tears. “Mom, 1’11 be back soon. Don’t worry!”
“Dandan! Dad and I are waiting for you! I clean your room every day! 1 was waiting for you to return. Dandan, talk to me a little more…” Qin Dandan’s mother was afraid that it was just her imagination.
Everything felt unreal. Their daughter had been missing for numerous years, and everyone else had tacitly agreed that their daughter had been murdered. However, as Qin Dandan’s parents, the two of them had never given up! She had been carrying Qin Dandan’s photo with her, looking for her day after day, asking around, thinking of ways…
Now that Mrs. Qin actually received a call from Qin Dandan, she couldn’t believe it. She even thought that this was just a figment of her imagination because she missed her daughter too much.
Qin Dandan uncontrollably cried. “Mom, 1’11 be able to see you in a few hours. Will you and Dad wait for me at the police station? 1 have to make a statement first.”
“Police station?” Qin Dandan’s mother was stunned when she heard that!
Qin Dandan knew that it was not the time to bring up her ordeal. However, she was afraid that if she did not say anything, her mother would continue to worry. She gritted her teeth and said, “Mom, 1 was kidnapped! I have just been rescued, but 1 have to go to the police station to make a statement. Did you and Dad call the police too?”
“Of course!” Mrs. Qin quickly nodded. How could she not call the police when something like this happened? However, the scene of Qin Dandan being kidnapped was not captured by the surveillance cameras at all.
Qin Dandan sniffed. “So you and Dad have to go too. We have to make a statement.”
“Dandan! Are you alright?” Mrs. Qin couldn’t help but weep.
It was now early in the morning, and the sky was a bit glaring. Since Qin Dandan’s parents had been searching for her for a long time, they ended up exhausting their savings and owing a lot of money. If it weren’t for the fear that their daughter wouldn’t be able to find her way back once she return, they would have sold the house. Now, Mr. Qin had to work two jobs every day to make ends meet.
“Mom, I’m fine. I’m alive and kicking, really!” Qin Dandan heard her mother’s cries. How could she hold it in? After making the assurance, she couldn’t help but cry.
“Dandan, how did you get kidnapped? Tell me. Your father isn’t at home now. 1 am at home alone. Talk to me more, and don’t hang up, alright?” Mrs. Qin was afraid that if she hung up, she would lose contact with her daughter again.
“Mom, I’m really fine,” Qin Dandan said while pretending to be relaxed. In order to reassure her mother, she told her about what had happened back then. However, she didn’t say much. She only told her mother about her encounter with the human trafficker.
Mrs. Qin sobbed even more after hearing that.
Qin Dandan forced an unsightly smile. “Mom, 1 have learned my lesson. 1 won’t do it again.” After suffering so much, she would definitely be more cautious in the future.
But before Mrs. Qin could finish her question, her voice tensed up.
“Dandan! You…you have been abducted…Tell me that you are fine now. Tell us that you are really back.”
“What else can 1 do?” Qin Dandan did not wipe away her tears. They were caught like cheap workers in factories, forced to dig coal and mine. Anyway, they worked without rest…
“But you know me too. I’m quick-witted and even managed to become a leader! To be able to rest a little more than others…”
Qin Dandan easily said it because she made it up. Her mother was the only one at home now.. How could she tell the truth? Which mother wouldn’t break down upon knowing her daughter had been kidnapped, impregnated, and forced to have an abortion?
