Don't look for anyone else.

Because you might run into bad people.

The child secretly glanced at the old woman.

Grandma was a good person.

Not a bad person.

"Bao Bao!"

The child had only taken two steps with the old woman when she heard a voice more familiar than any other.

She abruptly looked up in the direction of the voice.

"Mom!"

The child saw the person she had been longing for.

Her face lit up with joy.

She immediately let go of the old woman's hand.

Then she ran over.

The old woman instinctively reached out to stop the child.

Then she realized what the child had just called out.

She drew back her hand.

Mom...

A smile appeared on the old woman's face.

What a coincidence.

That was great.

They wouldn't have to go to the police station to ask the police officers for help after all.

Juzi immediately ran toward the child, calling out, "Don't run."

"Stay right there."

The child obediently did as she was told.

Juzi quickly reached the child.

She crouched in front of her, her expression a little disapproving. "Bao Bao, you mustn't run like that next time."

The child wasn't in good health.

Running was too strenuous an activity for her.

"Mm."

The child nodded obediently.

After the frightening experience earlier, she no longer felt any urge to run.

Running was really scary.

The memory of how it had felt still frightened her.

But now, the joy of seeing Mom again eclipsed everything else.

A huge smile spread across the child's face.

She had finally seen her mom!

Seeing how happy the child was made Juzi feel even more apologetic.

"I'm sorry, Bao Bao."

"Mom only just saw the message from your teacher..."
