Chapter 141: That man again

When they arrived at the City, it was already evening. The sun almost sets and at the dim light road to Roccaleaf Tea House one of the shadow guard approached them, as it turned, Elder Dam has comeback last night and seeing Senja had slept, he didn't disturbed her.

Afterward Xiao Tianyao, Elder Dam and Prince Xiao Wu Xie had meeting until noon, once they finished their meeting, Elder Dam immediately looking for Senja only to found out she wasn't there. Thus, when day turned dark Elder Dam grew anxious and dispatched all the Shadow Guards available to look for her.

Senja smiled wryly upon hearing the Shadow Guard's report while walked faster to Roccaleaf Tea House. This grandfather of her sometimes could be unbearable. His chronic overprotectiveness was getting worse.

Once they arrived, the Shadow Guard escorted them to the big room at the opposite way from Senja's room at the third floor.

"My child" Elder Dam sighed in relief the moment he saw Senja opened the door "You make grandfather worry!" He exclaimed and regarded Senja a big bear hug.

"I strolled with them." Senja waved her hand to her other companions and took a peek at Xiao Tianyao who was standing behind Elder Dam and another man.

The strange man who sat across Xiao Tianyao exuded different aura, he has an arrogant air around him that felt so dominance, like a proud hunter that looked down to their prey. He didn't put anyone in this room into his eyes.

Just in a second glance, enough for Senja to has bad impression about him and she knew right away that she didn't like this man.

"Former Main Commander Dam. Is she your long lost granddaughter?" The man asked Elder Dam as he scrutinized Senja. He stared for long time at her purple hairs. Somehow Senja was getting use with this attention. By contrast, he didn't make a single comment and only gave Senja derisive smile.

"Mm," Elder Dam only mumbled without even look at him "Senja, this is Second Prince Xiao Wu Xie." Elder Dam moved aside to introduce Senja to the Prince.

"Senja greet Second Prince Xiao Wu Xie." She said in low voice while bent her body slightly. With the influence of her grandfather and 'Senja's' contribution to the Country, except to the Emperor and the Empress, Senja didn't have obligation to kneel down. So, her gestured earlier was acceptable. Elder Dam told her about this before.

However there was slightly dissatisfied feeling that Senja could sense from this prince that didn't appear on his face when he praised her "Such a fine lady. Former Main Commander Dam is really blessed."

Elder Dam ignored it and tussled Senja head lovingly as he dismissed her "You can go for now, later we will have dinner together."

Senja just nodded obediently and walked away. Although she didn't know how the hierarchy of authority between the three of them, but for Elder Dam was able to not give face to the Prince of the Country, it could say for sure that the bottom line of Prince Xiao Wu Xie for Elder Dam was very deep.

***

Because it was still few hours before dinner time, Senja decided to stay at her room and do nothing. She was staring at the ceiling when she heard noisy sound from her door.

Senja ignored it at first, but then the noise was getting loud and loud. Curiously she sat up and walked to the door. Only to find out the scenes before her eyes caused her to scream on the top of her lung.

There, the man from the forest at Carnation Resort, defeated two Shadow Guards who were guarding her room. Both of them were unconscious now.
