NOVEL NEXT Chapter 96: Complicated
Xiao Tianyao didn't heed her provocation and just standing there staring at her. His gaze was like calculating something.
Because the guy in front of her refused to talk, Senja also didn't have anything to say lest she said something wrong that made her situation worse. So she stubbornly looked back at him.
After a long silence, in the end Senja sighed irritably. "What is it? Are you going staring at me the whole day?"
Xiao Tianyao's chuckled was far from warm, it more like he was looking down on her statement. "I have to clean up after your mess, I am afraid I don't have time to do that now"
Her heart skipped a beat but she still maintained her aloof smile. "What mess a sleeping person possibly could have done?"
"It seems young miss Senja has a habit to sleep with shoes" He gave back her word previously with the same mocking tone. Originally he wasn't sure about his suspicion however after he catch glance Senja's shoes when she walked, he at least could firmly said that Senja in anyway was involved in this mess.
Senja resisted the temptation to glance at her feet however she couldn't refuse her instinct to take a peek briefly. Her feet were covered perfectly inside the quilt no one is able to see it, so how Xiao Tianyou is able to tell? When he saw her shoes? Is it when she was walking her quilt accidentally revealed? It was indeed possible.
When the black robe man chased after her, she was managed to escape with great difficulty. If it wasn't because her years of trained and escape experienced multiple time. She is quite sure she will be in interrogation room by now. Even Elder Dam would doubt her innocence.
The moment she reached her room, she knew there were 5 shadow guards on their guard and they were still assuming that Senja was inside the room, so she ran to the blank spot of their surveillance and sneaked inside the room through the window. Sure enough some of the shadow guard chassed after her straightaway into the room, she didn't think twice when she jumped to her bed, removed her turban and mask face before cried with fear the moment shadow guards barge in with swords ready on their hands.
She just kept saying to them that someone was in the room while covered her whole body inside her quilt. Of course they didn't dare to come too close to Senja, after they make sure Senja was fine, they kept searched the whole room but refused to leave her alone until Elder Dam came. That was why, up until now she was still wearing that black clothes and the shoes as well.
But, how could she admit it?!
"Your statement was very weird Commander"
"Weird?" He raised his eyebrows, his scars added the dangerous aura around him "Why don't you take off the quilt. I would like to see what else weird thing you are wearing" While he was saying this he took one step closer, subconsciously Senja took a step back.
Seeing her reaction, it confirmed his suspicion, she was indeed involved in last night's chaos.
Is she really 'Senja'? Did I get the wrong person?
He knew for long time that 'Senja', the precious lady from black sword clan, wasn't someone as simple as she appeared, even Elder Dam doesn't know about this. It could be said that too many affection ruin someone perspective, Elder Dam wouldn't believe if he said 'Senja' somehow involved with something complicated.
