Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 98: Accusation



Senja froze from her attempt to free her chin from his grasp upon hearing his creepy words. Who didn't know the meaning of word 'serving' in the military for woman?

Is he out of his mind? Even if Elder Dam very angry at her, he wouldn't let him did something like that right? It was a dishonorable act! But, how if he was executed his plan underhandedly? What she could do when the military power was under his hand? Whatever it is, Elder Dam has been long time retired from military.

The image of 'serving soldiers' made Senja shuddered and struggled again, however many times she tried to drop his hand the pain on her chin became worse and he refused to release her. In the end Senja gave up her effort and bear the pain with gritted teeth.

"I didn't kill him" Senja hissed between her teeth. She though Xiao Tianyao already knew about Gu Xie situation however when she looked at the furrows between his brows, she immediately knew that she stated something wrong.

Crap!

"Who has been killed?!" Murderous aura emitted from him along with his question. Who dare to murder someone under him?! Who was the person that already tired of living?!

Senja felt her chin was almost split into two under his grasping, she didn't dare to speak but she made sound of protest as she closed her eyes. When the pain getting worse and almost unable to bear, suddenly Xiao Tianyao released her chin and wrapped her with the quilt.

Caught of guards by the sudden relieved from the pain on her chin and the soft quilt that draped on her body, Senja's eyes flew open. She looked at Xiao Tianyao expression that no more stern as before, though the tenderness didn't reached his eyes and his hands stiffly arranged the quilt neatly.

What happened with him? Just what happened when I closed my eyes? Is he struck dumb?

"Tianyao you are here"

Senja jolted when Elder Dam voice traveled to her ears. And his figure suddenly appeared behind her back while looking at Senja and Xiao Tianyao with puzzlement and frowned.

"When you get inside? I was right outside the door since the moment I come out but didn't see when you are going inside" He asked with confused. He was right outside talking with the shadow guards, how come he didn't see him?

"I have been here since the moment grandfather coaxed her. But you were in hurry when you went outside and failed to noticed me" He was back to his calm demeanor self.

"You should rest. Why you walk around with quilt?" Elder Dam looked unsatisfied to Senja.

"She was unwell because of recent event and felt thirsty, so I help her to take the water to moisten her throat" Xiao Tianyao lied smoothly like a silk, without any holdback while his hands were still on Senja's shoulder when he talked and firmly held the quilt so it didn't fall. His action gave an ambiguous feeling to anyone who sees. Elder Dam wasn't an exception.

Suddenly a comprehension dawn to Elder Dam and he stared at Senja who stand still under Xiao Tianyao care, with eyes wide open. Just a few days ago she insisted that she has nothing to do with Xiao Tianyao but now, this man affectionately wrapped her with quilt. What exactly going on with both of them?

In actuality Senja just as confused as Elder Dam, if Xiao Tianyao wanted to exposed her this was a great opportunity, her outfit alone was an irrefutable evidence however, instead of throw her in front of Elder Dam to demanded explanation, he was covering her with quilt? What his plan? Did he not want to dismantle her lies? Things would escalated to another level of chaos if Elder Dam knew, and with her appearance now it was impossible for her to denied everything that Xiao Tianyao would accused her.

He can accuse her freely!
