Arriving in Beijing, Yang was surprised when the guards subtly caught his attention with a hand gesture of knocking their other palm for a signal. What was surprising is that the guard made sure that Mei Lin would not see it. He nodded at the guard and let his wife sit inside the car first, and he waited for the guard to come to him.

Once the guard was close to him, Yang closed the car door after saying, "Wait for one moment."

Mei Lin was curious but refrained from asking too many questions. It might be for business or news of the terrorists, but she knew that Yang would tell her if she asked. Patiently, Mei Lin waited for her husband while eating the Japanese snacks that he had bought.

Outside the car, the guard delivered shocking news, "Mrs. Zhao's grandfather, Elder Xue, is in the hospital. He had a heart attack at seven forty-six this morning."
