22 SEARCHING FOR ARIA .

Aria raised her head and saw a tall boy looking at her with a cold expression . This must have been the first child of that auntie , she thought . Looking at his expression , she tried hard to curb her body in trembling but because that boy seems around the same age of her brothers , this make her body remember more about the abuse thus making herself become scared too .

Qin Lijun raise his eyebrows looking at the girl who's instead more trembling after he pointed that . He walked forward to talk to her but stopped when he sense her fear . What a weird and weak girl , he thought ..

" Stop with the trembling . Your name is Aria , right ? You don't even have a surname , did you live overseas or something with that kind of name ? Anyway , if anyone see you like this , they would have think I'm bullying you . I don't know what your motives in trying to be close with my mother or even if you don't have any motives but as long as you live here . Don't cause any trouble especially to my mother and little bao . Little bao is still young so he doesn't know anything but he doesn't need a complete stranger to be his younger sister . "

With that , he turn his body to go back to his room when a weak and meek voice travelled to his ears .

" ..... B-brother , A .. Aria won't cause t-trouble . Don't ... worry ... "

She feel scared and a little dejected when she heard him say all that but as long as he doesn't has any intention in beating her like her brothers , as long as she doesn't cause trouble , it's fine .. This was fine for her ..

Qin Lijun turned her head again towards her and speak slightly gentle from before but still with his no expression face . Afterall he's not that unreasonable to get angry with a little girl who's just only back from the hospital .

" Don't call me brother , you just stay here for awhile afterall . Furthermore , no need to tremble like that because of me , I'm not that petty nor am I a lover of violence also I am not that low to argue with a little girl . I am just warning you so that you don't feel so smug to be a troublemaker in other people house . "

After that , he continued his way towards his room upstairs leaving Aria dumbfounded . He seems scary at first and then he explain his words . Aria was confused whether she should be scared of him or not . He doesn't seem to hate her that much though or he is ?

***********

Meanwhile , just a few minutes after Aria and the Qin Family left the hospital . A black sedan just passed beside them rushing towards the hospital .

There were a few scary looking men in the car and they seem quite anxious as if someone was chasing them .

The guy who sit on the passenger seat started to yell loudly to the man who's driving .

" Hey ! Just push the gas on the highest . If we lose her , we're dead , you know ! "

The guy who's driving berate him instead .

" Tsk ! I already did my best , any faster and the car might flying at this rate . It's fine if the car fly but what if the police catch us , you want to go to jail again ?! I'm sick of that stinky place . "

" .... Whatever , just hurry up ! "

Few minutes later , they arrived at the parking lot of the hospital and quickly rushed to the entrance . Overall , there are five men who looks skinny but had many scars on their arms and a few on their face . They wear a black mask and their eyes look quite scary if you look at them .

They split directions and started to wander in all places in the hospital . It seems that they didn't find something or someone that they need to find when they all come back with an angry and distorted face .

Since they look quite scary and they stand in a group infront of the main lobby of the hospital , they stand out quite a bit and people glance at them from time to time .

Coincidentally , a young nurse walk beside them while praying in her heart so that they won't create trouble for her . Unfortunately , the leader suddenly grab her hand while the others surround her in an instant .

The leader push a photo in front of the nurse eyes and told her to look at them properly .

The photo consist of a little girl with a sunken cheeks and a really skinny body . She looks lifeless and her body was crumpled in a circle whilst her eyes were close . It was Aria when she was 3 or 4 years old .

The leader speak in a frightening manner while grabbing hardly on the nurse wrist .

" Where did this kid go ?! You better tell me truthfully or I can just snap your wrist in a second ! "

The young nurse tremble but still look intently at the photo and she truly had never seen that little girl before ! She tried hard to remember but still there's nothing that comes to her mind . She plucks her courage while curb the pain that she felt from her wrist .

" I-I have never seen her . I swear she's not here in the hospital . M-maybe you come to the wrong hospital .. ? "

The other guy started to yell loudly upon hearing what she say .

" Are you sure you never seen her ?! Or you just want to hide her existence ! "

" I-I'm really sure .. She's not here .. "

" Damn ! "

Since Aria was placed in the VVIP area and the VVIP area had a strict security around them making only a few people can use it and a high ranking doctors , of course they wouldn't know that the little girl was there in this hospital .

The guys started to kick things near them after confirming that the kid was not here . The leader let go of the nurse's wrist and she run away from them quickly . The leader forced the other guys to retreat after several security officer was seen not far from their location .

In the car , a voice filled the whole car with anger and threats .

" She's not there ?! Why the hell I spent so much money on bunch of you if you can't even trace a kid ?! "

" Useless ! Don't you even think about the pay of remaining money ! I'll give you a last chance ! If I don't see her in this month , forget about your own life , I can even make your families suffer ! "

THUD !

The phone was hung up and the guys started to curse badly towards the phone . They come from a high influential organization but they still had to keep their head down when they receive a wealthy client . What a shitty life !
