Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Early in the morning, a carriage had arrived in front of the lodgment. Xiao Tianyao helped Senja to get inside the carriage, but this time he didn't get in. Instead, he rode his horse with Xiao Jun.

Along the way to Roccaleaf Tea House, Senja was bored because she had nothing to do and no one to chat with. In the end, she chose to sleep as she's still feeling tired from using hypnosis the night before.

When they arrived and the carriage stopped, Xiao Tianyao got on to the carriage only to find Senja fast asleep.

"Wake up." Xiao Tianyao shook her shoulder. "We've arrived."

Senja opened her eyes lazily and yawned. Her head mildly throbbing in pain, "We have arrived?"

"Yes," Xiao Tianyao replied softly as he neatened her messy hair.

Senja was taken aback by his gesture, but she stayed mum and just enjoyed the treatment. After a moment, they got off the carriage. However, Xiao Jun was nowhere in sight.

Senja had been gone for almost 3 days. Had her grandfather returned and gotten wind of her absence, he would've surely been flustered to the point of rage.

Reality proved that Senja had guessed it right for the moment she stepped into Roccaleaf Tea House, her grandfather was approaching her with long strides.

"Where did you bring her!?" Elder Dam pulled Senja to his side and gave Xiao Tianyao a tongue lashing. "I told you to come and let Young Miss Sana re-check the contents of the letter. What were you doing these past few days bringing my granddaughter!?"

Under Elder Dam's wrath, Xiao Tianyao's expressions hardly changed. His stoic face simply held the usual respect. He stood there as though he was the eye of the tempest called Elder Dam...ever so calm, absolutely immune to his backlashes.

"Grandfather, even if I'd stayed here there's nothing that I could've done since Young Miss Sana lost the letter."

"Sana lost the letter!?" Elder Dam's expression turned even uglier.

Apparently, Elder Dam had just come back and the first news he received was of Senja and Xiao Tianyao's disappearance. He didn't know anything about the letter as Xiao Wu Wie seemed to have covered the news up.

"I brought Young Miss Senja along because my brother Jun came, and he wanted to meet Young Miss Senja."

**Ck, what a lie! How can he manage to lie with a straight face like that?!** Senja grumbled in her heart.

"Jun has come?" Elder Dam narrowed his eyes. "Where is that brat?"

Instantly, Elder Dam forgot all about Senja as he stormed inside the lodgment.

"Does my grandfather dislike your brother?" Senja asked as she stood next to Xiao Tianyao.

"No one in the right mind will like my brother." Xiao Tianyao said coolly as he strode inside the lodgment as well.

"Shouldn't that refer to yourself?" Senja mumbled because she thought Xiao Tianyao wouldn't hear her. But…

"I heard that Senja." He retorted before his figure disappeared at the corner of the corridor.

**Ck, annoying!**

....

It was almost midnight when Xiao Tianyao came back to his room after a long discussion with Xiao Jun and Elder Dam about the matter in M City that Xiao Tianyao needed to handle which required him to stay at Black Sword Clan's mansion.

Since Elder Dam had long retired, the only thing that he could do was to assist Xiao Tianyao with Black Sword Clan's power while Xiao Jun headed to Q City.

Later, they discussed about the missing secret letter with Xiao Wang Wei, Sana and Leader Mo. The two of them were furious at her even as Sana kept saying that she didn't know how the letter had gone missing.
