Mother, nation struggle along with Chinese toddler in hit-and-run video

By Steven Jiang, CNNOctober 19, 2011 -- Updated 0430 GMT (1230 HKT)China: Hit-and-run video sparks outcry

"I didn't think of anything at the time," she told local reporters Sunday. "I just wanted to save the girl."

Chen's overnight celebrity, however, appeared too overwhelming for her. Her neighbors told CNN Tuesday night she had gone home to the countryside with her son.

Domestic media also tracked down some of the passersby in the video. While several denied seeing Wang lie on the ground, one pedestrian told Yangcheng Evening News that she noticed a girl crying next to a pool of blood.

"I went to the closest store and asked a young man there if she was his child, but he said no," the newspaper quoted her as saying. "Nobody else dared to touch her, how did I?"

"This is sort of classic bystander effect, where people have a diffusion of responsibility," Wendy Walsh, a psychologist based in Los Angeles, commented on CNN.

Wang's mother said in tears that she still couldn't comprehend the behavior of the passersby but wanted to focus on the positive.

"Granny Chen represents the best of human nature," Qu said of her daughter's rescuer at the scene. "It's the nicest and most natural side of us."

Despite rising concerns over China's declining morality after the story broke, humanity now shines at the Guangzhou hospital where Yue is being treated.

A steady procession of well-wishers surrounds her family throughout the day, offering gifts, money and support.

"I'm so grateful for all the nice people," Qu said. "Yueyue won't let them down.

"I know my girl -- she's strong and she'll wake up again."
