"My neighbors told me that he was a middle-age, middle-height man with a pair of glasses. But with the effort of many people, we managed to finally find him," she said.
"I can't express my thanks with simple words. I couldn't image what would of happened without Xiao's help. He is the savior of my whole family."
Yu added the incident occurred when Mei found was left alone while her grandfather attended the market. She said Mei was trying to signal him through the window when she slipped and fell.
Mei was born with hearing disability and could speak after undergoing cochlear implant surgery.
"Her cochlear implant was out of power by accident, so she couldn't hear Xiao," Yu said.
