Wang Guoqiang recalled in his confessions: "These two years and eight months are so short, but it seems like 28 years to me. During this period, I was afraid that China would find me and the United States would capture me, which made me afraid to use my wife’s passport, to seek medical treatment when I was sick, to contact my relatives at home, and to contact my classmates and friends in the United States. It is particularly regrettable that I was afraid to tell her where my mother and I were, let alone meet my daughter, after two years and eight months in the United States. Even by means of transportation, you can only take the "Greyhound" bus (coach) without a passport. "
The confession also mentioned: "I have a phone, but I can’t use it. I can’t contact my relatives. I miss them. When I left, my father-in-law was 88 years old, and he was already senile. He was in the late stage of his life and would soon die. As a result, my father-in-law and my wife’s sister died, and we failed to return to China for a visit. "
"There is disease without the rule of law. During my stay in America, I was afraid to see a doctor and use my passport. Not to mention going to the hospital, you can’t even buy medicine, because you need a prescription to buy medicine for treating diseases in the United States, and you need a passport to see a doctor. We would rather die of illness than disclose our identity. In addition, during my flight to the United States, my blood pressure has not dropped, reaching 200 at the highest time. "
