Chapter 711: TRY TO UNDERSTAND HER
\'What the hell?\' Carlo thought.
"Aaahh!" A woman\'s terrifying scream rang a bell on Carlo\'s ears.
He was startled as he looked at the woman who was hitting the child a while ago. Somehow, she stopped screaming. However, her mouth was open. She struggled to speak up but she couldn\'t. She grabbed her own neck to understand what was wrong. But she didn\'t have the time to think. Her body gradually rose. Her toes didn\'t touch the ground anymore. She was flying. She felt immense pain as if something was crashing her. She was beyond terrified. Her previous ruthlessness was gone.
Carlo couldn\'t take it anymore. He grabbed Hua Lan\'s shoulder and shook her body. "Stop it! Don\'t do it! Hey, are you listening what I am saying?" He screamed.
Hua Lan didn\'t hear him. She was too busy to punish this woman. While hurting her, she was thinking of her aunt who treated her badly. At that time, no one was there to save her, she endured everything alone, silently. She thought that her aunt was her only family left, but what did she get after believing her?
Now that she saw a kid suffering just like her, she couldn\'t take it anymore. She had to punish women like her aunt, she was here to save the kid.
Carlo tried to shove her away from this place, but he couldn\'t move her an inch. He gave her a horrified look. "What are you doing? Stop it? You are killing her!" He screamed.
"An eyesore doesn\'t have to live. It\'s annoying. This child can live better without her." Hua Lan used more force. Her eyes showed happiness. Her eyes twinkled as the woman began to cough blood.
At that moment, she wished so much that the woman would turn into her aunt. She killed hundreds at the age of eleven. Why would it matter now to kill one single woman?
Carlo thought that he was standing beside a maniac. He felt chills ran down her spine.
"But if you kill her, her children will be motherless. She is hurting this kid, but it doesn\'t mean she will hurt her own kids. Even if you don\'t care about the woman, at least care about her children. Think about her family." He tried his hardest to show her reasons.
Hua Lan halted. She seemed to think about something. After that, the pressure of the wind gradually softened. Her red eyes gazed at Carlo. She said, "Don\'t talk about family. It doesn\'t exist."
\'If family really exists, then why can\'t I stay with my mama, papa and Jonah? Family is an illusion, nothing more.\' She thought. She turned around and left.
Carlo sighed in relief. He looked at the woman who was rolling on the ground and then followed Hua Lan.
She noticed that he was behind her. She said, "Don\'t follow me." She wanted to stay alone.
"I can\'t let you be alone." Carlo stubbornly replied.
"Why are you still acting? Can\'t you read my mood? I\'m not interest in your acting now."
"I\'m not acting. Since everything thinks of you one of us, I decided to think you as my own." Only Carlo knew how he felt when he said that. His heart was screaming not to think of her as a family member, but he forced himself to say that.
Hua Lan chuckled. She turned around and mockingly said, "Aren\'t you a hypocrite? Look at you. You don\'t even like me and you can hardly except me. How can you think of me as your own?"
Seeing his expression changing, she said, "Don\'t worry. I cannot read mind. But I can tell who likes me and who doesn\'t. You are pretending to like me but you actually despise me, just like my aunt."
After that, she walked away, leaving Carlo alone, dumbfounded.
The next few days, none of them talk to each other. Though Carlo cooked for both of them, Hua Lan made her own meal. The situation became the way it was before.
Carlo sighed. He was looking at the dark sky full of stars. He was thinking how to make up with her. He thought of many ways to control her. He even thought of hypnotizing her. But it wouldn\'t be a good thing to do, so he didn\'t. He still believed that hypnotizing was the fastest and most effective way to handle her.
However, doing the right thing was the hardest and doing the wrong thing was the easiest.
While he was thinking, suddenly a realization popped into his mind.
He asked himself, "Why don\'t I try to see her past to understand her better? If I can get what she is thinking, it will be easier for me to handle her. Why didn\'t I think of that before?" He knocked his head.
"Hmm..." Hua Lan turned around and slept again.
Carlo vigilantly looked at Hua Lan who was sleeping. When she was alone, her sleep was lighter than a feather. He was twenty meters away from her. He didn\'t make a sound. He sat up slowly and closed his eyes.
His mind reading power was mind blowing. But he couldn\'t read her mind. He also didn\'t know what type of person she was before. When Juan, Romano and Mark kept an eye on her, Carlo was busy with his missions. He knew her stories as he heard them from Shintaro, but he never saw her face to face until the rescue mission in Japan. And the moment he saw her for the first time, she gave him a weary look, and that annoyed him the most.
At that time, he thought, \'This brat! How dare she behaves like this! We saved her from the hell and this is how she treats us! Fine! I will see how long she can stay with us.\'
For now, he would try to read her past and her feelings when she was facing those incidents alone. Thus, he closed his eyes and concentrated.
