Gougou knew his mother must be busy, but after nearly two hours without a sight of her, he had lost his last barrier of hope. Despite being an obedient child, Gougou was only three and a half years old. The tremors caused by the collapse of the house had scared him, deep down he believed that Nanzhi didn't want him anymore.
Struggling from the arms of Mrs. Liu, Gougou started crying and running towards the entrance of the village. However, he was thrown to the ground by another sudden tremor, hit his chin on a stone, and started to cry harder.
Weeping and calling for his mother, he crawled towards the village entrance. He wanted to go to his grandmother's house to find his mother. He swore he would behave and never anger his mother again.
"Gougou! Come back!" Mrs. Liu, while trying to protect her own grandchild, was shouting at Gougou who was crawling towards the village entrance. She couldn't let anything happen to Gougou, not after he had been entrusted to her care by Ling.
