Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 503: Doubt elder zhong

Initially she thought she would meet Xiao Tianyao right away after she arrived here, but apparently he was too busy with his own business.

An idea to barge inside the meeting room flashed in her irritated mind for a second before she got rid of it. Sometimes, her impulse was very dangerous. It was time to control it.

"The meeting is still not yet finish, Young Miss Senja." He said solemnly.

"Can't you tell Xiao Tianyao that I am here? I have something important to discuss." Her brows furrowed together, she didn't lie when she said she have something important.

The shadow guard lowered his head again. "I am sorry, Young Miss Senja, but except Lieutenant Utara, no one could enter the room."

"Utara is here?" She shouldn't be surprised, after all Utara was Xiao Tianyao's friend inside or outside the military. "Can you call him for me?"

"Yes, Young Miss." He obliged and walked hurriedly.

Senja called out one of the shadow guard who was walking past her, upon seeing the purple hair that was well known as the granddaughter of Elder Dam, he approached her eagerly, stealing a curious glance at her hair couple of time.

It seemed they would never get used with her striking hair color.

"Can you bring me food?" Senja asked expectantly.

"Yes, Young Miss. What would you like to eat?"

Senja contemplated for awhile, however her choice of food never strayed away from "You have fried chicken? Give me that."

"Yes, right away." He said with sheepish smile and once again glanced at her hair.

Now, all Senja needed to do was waiting for Utara and her food to be delivered.

Utara came at the same time with her food, Senja let the shadow guard started to light up the lantern inside the tent to give more light for both of them.

"Senja! What are you doing here?" He asked, panting.

When the shadow guard told him that Senja was looking for him inside Xiao Tianyao's tent, he sprinted. Actually he was in the other side of the premises and it was quite far, hence the moment he arrived he almost lost his breath.

"Xiao Tianyao told me you are with Qianru in the northern fortress?"

"I have something important to discuss."

With the word of important, Utara grew alert. "Should I call Xiao Tianyao now? Is everything alright at the northern fortress? Something happened to Qianru?"

Senja raised her eyebrows with surprised. "Slow down brother. Did you just interrogate me?"

Utara dismissed the shadow guard who was light up the lantern to illuminate the room and when it was only the two of them, Utara gestured Senja to sit down.

"You just come in time." He spoke in low voice. "Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun have argumentation with the three Elders."

"What was happening?"

"The elders wanted to attack according the plan that they have arranged, but there is something happen with the Moon Dew Clan's side. They supposed to arrive a week ago, but until now there is no news from them."

Senja remembered Moon Dew Clan, it was the clan that came with Qi Xunyi, they were indeed came late the last time, but if it wasn't for them, Xiao Jun wouldn't be able to counterattack Elder Zhong's betrayal and overthrown the old regime.

There must be something happen at that time which caused them missed the arrangement. Unfortunately, Senja didn't stay longer to find out what had happened and Yun couldn't find out much about the history of the Kingdom of Azura.

"Don't you send someone to figure out what happen to them?" Senja asked while starting to bite her chicken.

It wasn't common to talk while eating in this era, but Senja was starving and she needed to discuss this with Utara, moreover the man in front of him seemingly didn't bother with it too. Hence Senja kept munching her meal while catch up with the current situation.

"We did send someone, but still there is no news from him." Utara lowered his gaze, contemplating. "This strange."

"What about elder Zhong?" Senja asked.

"What about him?" Utara tilted his head.

"Don't you find him suspicious?"

This time Utara scrunched his brows tightly, seemingly didn't get what Senja wanted to imply. "I don't get it. If there is someone suspicious out of the three elders, Elder Zhong is out of an option." He said firmly.

The complicated expression was written on Utara's face and now he gave a wary looked at Senja.

If Senja still has her ability, she would have known what exactly he felt when they talked about elder Zhong or how he felt after Senja doubted the elder.

Unfortunately her ability had gone and now, Senja only could guess what he was thinking.

They looked at each other, trying to assess one another until Senja came with the conclusion that Elder Zhong has built his good image diligently that could ward off any suspicion toward him. If Senja insisted there was something wrong with him without evidence, no one would believe her.

Senja didn't know that Elder Zhong was trusted so deep like this.

"Forget it." Senja waved her hands leisurely to ease the tense between them. "How can I judge him when I have never met him, right?" She resumed to eating like nothing happened.

"I do think the same." Utara visibly relaxed when Senja said that. For him, elder Zhong was the most loyal person, he was a close friend of his father and he has known him since he was little along with Xiao Tianyao and Xiao Jun.

"So, what Xiao Tianyao and the other discussing now? They have had meeting since afternoon and now the sun had set." Senja glanced at the dark night outside from the slightly opened curtain of the entrance tent.

She had been travelled for seven days to meet him as soon as possible and was very dissatisfied with this result.

Senja thought if she was lucky enough, Xiao Tianyao would accept her with open arms and sweet kiss, or if she was unlucky, Xiao Tianyao would accept her with scrunched face, scolded her and a kiss. But she had never thought that she would end up like this.

Being ignored.

With that thought Senja took her revenge on the poor chicken and bit it down like it had wronged her greatly.
