what does an-mei do when she returns to the beach?

During the search for Bing's body, An-mei's belief in herself is so strong that she swims out to find Bing, even though she doesn't know how to swim. The next day she drives to the beach (even though she doesn't know how to drive) to bring Bing back. She throws the blue sapphire ring which her mother gave her into the sea so that the gods will return Bing alive. When Bing is not returned, An-mei loses her faith in God and uses the Bible to level a table leg.
