Xiao Tianyao didn't co to visit her again after that morning and even this afternoon. Aunt Hu and Aunt Yu had taken care of her diligently since the ti she had passed out.
She didn't even get a chance to step out from her room. Because the Auntie duo would tattle to Elder Dam who had forbidden her from stepping outside for a couple of days 'cause she needed rest.
**Am I being grounded? ** Senja just stared at them blankly, **Fact of the matter is it was Xiao Tianyao who was in my room, but why am I the one who is not allowed to go outside? **
An upset Senja went back to sleep her afternoon away. So, she couldn't go out now, let's see what happens when the sun goes down!
.....
anwhile, inside the study room.
Yang Yu was kneeling in front of his Master while Elder Dam and Xiao Tianyao sat on the couch as the rays of the afternoon sun fell on his detached face as his scar added to the aloofness.
"Master, I found them." Yang Yu said solemnly.
Xiao Tianyao only nodded slightly to acknowledge it. The timing was just right.
Actually, his business regarding Bian and Gooza was still afoot when midway he received news that Wang Yu would return from the Kingdom of Rockstone soon. Thus, he ca back.
And now since Yang Yu had accomplished his task, everything would settle at once. But, in this matter he would let Elder Dam be the one to end it.
"Take care of them until the ti cos." Elder Dam ordered Yang Yu with indifference.
Since Xiao Tianyao didn't show any signs of objection, Yang Yu received the order from Elder Dam respectfully and went out of the room.
Elder Dam smiled with satisfaction as he poured liquor into Xiao Tianyao's and his empty glasses.
"Tell , did you know all about this since the beginning?" Elder Dam offered a toast as he raised his own glass.
Xiao Tianyao received it respectfully and downed it bottoms up.
"No, I only ca to know about this recently." Xiao Tianyao lied smoothly.
As Elder Dam laughed, he thumped the table with gusto, "It would be very interesting to see them thus."
.....
Late at night.
Senja opened the door to Xiao Tianyao's room after she had hypnotized one of the guards on her way here. This place simply had too many guards around. Even with her ability, a guard had caught her off guard leaving her with no other choice except to hypnotize him.
The dimly lit room welcod her with silence sans a soul about.
She was very sure that Xiao Tianyao was inside his room, so she went to check further to the inner room and didn't find him on his bed. She decided heading to the side room and found Xiao Tianyao with closed eyes, resting on a chair. He seed to be fast asleep.
Senja drew closer and only stopped when she was standing beside him.
"Are you sleeping?" Senja bent to whisper in his ear.
Unexpectedly, with eyes still closed, Xiao Tianyao wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her into his lap while resting his chin on the curve of her neck and mumbled, "Mm I am sleeping."
"Who answers when they are sleeping?" Senja chuckled and adjusted herself on his lap.
"Who asks sothing like that" Xiao Tianyao retorted. "What are you doing here? You need to rest." His tone showed discontent when he spoke.
"I am fine now."
Xiao Tianyao could sense that Senja had relapsed to her usual lively deanor. He sighed in relief as the horrifying mory of her figure collapsing in front of him gradually faded away.
Senja pouted, "You didn't even co to see "
"Your grandfather was here all of this afternoon and has only just left."
At the ntion of her grandfather, Senja abruptly straightened her back and looked at Xiao Tianyao intently.
"Right! What he talk to you about? He didn't say anything strange, right?"
"Strange like what?" Xiao Tianyao's lips curled into a smile.
"Like" Senja blushed, "Like I don't know. Just say what he said."
"He said nothing."
"Impossible! He would have definitely said sothing. He caught you inside my room in the middle of the night and he was clearly miffed by you when he left."
"So, what do you think he would have spoken to about?"
"I don't know" Senja rolled her eyes in annoyance, "Maybe he wanted you to be responsible for ? Grandfather must have thought sothing happened between us" She could feel her cheeks heat up at her last words.
Xiao Tianyao's eyes lit up in mirth.
"Hmm so that was what grandfather was thinking" He muttered.
"Grandfather has misunderstood us" Senja grumbled grimly. The misunderstanding this ti bothered her quite a bit because Elder Dam had looked grave, as if he had set his mind on sothing.
Xiao Tianyao stroked the red hue on her cheeks lovingly as he spoke, "Let him misunderstand us"
"No! You must explain it to him."
"I don't want." Xiao Tianyao said nonchalantly as he stood up and forced Senja off his lap. He steadied her with a steady hand on her waist to keep her from tumbling down.
Xiao Tianyao kissed her cheek and spoke in her ear, "Wait for in the bedroom, there is sothing I need to finish first."
As soon as he had spoken, Xiao Tianyao sauntered out of the room, while Senja glared at his retreating back.
"Geez! Can you watch your words? They sound so ambiguous!" She yelled peevishly.
