Chapter 303: Don't flirt with me!
Despite the humiliation, Rindy made another attempt to attack Senja. She stepped to the side, raised her left leg and tried to kick her. However, Senja ducked and slashed at her right calf.
Upon feeling the sharp pain, Rindy cried out a long loud shriek as she fell to the ground with one hand holding on to her outer robe and the other hand the wound on her leg.
"That's for you, for daring to raise your sword against me." There was no emotion in Senja's voice, and this terrified Rindy even further. "The next time you even think about going against me, think about it again, because I will make you suffer more than your evil mind could ever imagine."
Senja's words sent a chill down her spine as she shivered involuntarily.
In her final act, Senja threw the sword to the other side of the aisle and walked away with a chin held high and disgust laced eyes.
Rindy gulped hard, unable to make sense of all of this. She had never come across anyone as cold-blooded as her, just her glare could knock her stiff silly. The stepsister who she had been bullying for half of her life had the gall to do what she had just done!
She needed to let her mother know about this, so she could talk to her father, Wang Yu, when he arrived. The only reason she had lay low all this time and accepted Elder Dam's task without a question, was because her mother had let her father know about Senja's return.
Once her father returned, everything would be settled, including her engagement to Xiao Tianyao. With that thought the pain in her calf eased somewhat.

After the tiff, Senja was really upset. She didn't know why she had ended up in this mess. The only think that she had done was agree to help grandmother Riana to find someone named Yun, because she had looked very desperate that night… the last night she was in her era.
However, she had gotten tangled in a lot of secrets, a vicious family and there was even the possibility that the man she … liked… had ulterior motives. If it were true, don't even mention all the hurdles that she had gone through, this fact alone hurt Senja the most.
She had never felt like this before, even when she had broken up in the past, no one had turned her despondent like this.
Senja didn't know why she felt like this towards Xiao Tianyao, even when the man who held a special place in her heart hadn't sent even a single news let alone show up these past three months.
Was this what he had done to Rindy too, when he had dragged their engagement? Was he treating her the same way? So, everything that he had done and said didn't hold value?
Senja's head slumped to the point of touching the floor by the time she entered her room. She didn't even feel the slightest happiness about her confrontation with Rindy, instead she felt disheartened on realizing that maybe all that happened between Xiao Tianyo and her was nix.
Perhaps it was all Xiao Tianyao's fault for disappearing without news for a long time, so Senja was even more unsure about his feelings. He was quite hostile towards her in the beginning, but now…
**He changed too fast, didn't he? **
With a clouded mind, Senja laid down on her bed and slept away the entire afternoon, even skipping her lunch with grandfather and turning down having dinner together with the excuse that she wanted to finish the book she had been reading. In fact, Senja just stayed in her room, waiting for midnight so she could slip away to train with Utara.
Recently Senja had hit upon an idea: exercise could help ease her cluttered mind and release her negativity.
When the night reached its apex, Senja was waiting for Utara. She had intentionally ahead of her usual time, because she felt stuffy in her room.
Senja sat down in her usual place- on the big rock, cuddled her knees and waited for Utara to arrive.
"You have come quite early…. so eager to meet him?"
The familiar voice had come from the darkest spot. Senja sat straight and darted her eyes in the direction of the voice.
Not long after, a familiar figure emerged into the light. He was as beautiful as Senja had imagined these past three months, a little spent, yet one couldn't ignore his strong presence.
The smile on his lips was just perfect, making Senja bite down her own lips to prevent from reciprocating.
Senja sat, her head raised and staring at him until he stood in front of her.
He felt the girl's purple hair in his big palm as he stroked her head lovingly. Yet, the girl still refused to talk.
"Say something." He furrowed his brows. Xiao Tianyao wasn't used to a mum Senja.
"I thought you forgot the way to this mansion." Senja said plainly, without any emotion.
Xiao Tianyao laughed lightly when he heard her grumble.
"I could forget the way to this mansion, but how could I forget you?"
**Geez! This man! The first thing he does is flirt with me! **
