Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 263: Xiao jun's warning

Xiao Tianyao looked at her sideways and decided to put the medicine box away.

"I hope I don't have to treat your wound again."

"If you don't want to treat my wound, then I will have to ask someone else to do it." Senja grabbed and started eating another apple. She was quite hungry actually.

Xiao Tianyao stopped in his tracks and turned his back. "I don't know if you have a plan to get hurt again." He was pretty miffed.

Senja turned to face him and gave him a sweet smile, "As long as you protect me, no one can hurt me. Therefore, will you always stay by my side?"

"Stay here. I will go look for Jun." Xiao Tianyao chose to not answer her question and walked away, as Senja chuckled happily for she had managed to tease him yet again.

Hmm, their interaction wasn't as awkward as Senja had imagined before. She had still been able to tease him, and he was still as stoic as before their kiss.

Senja would find time later to ask him why he had kissed her even when he had declared that he didn't like her. If Xiao Tianyao thought Senja would be too shy to bring up the topic then he didn't know her at all!

Some moments after Xiao Tianyao had left, the door to the room slowly opened and Xiao Jun walked inside the room, as calm as ever, as though he had just come back from enjoying the night view and not killing someone.

"Young Miss Senja." Xiao Jun greeted her politely.

Senja stood up and slightly bent her body. "Prince Xiao Jun, your brother has gone out just now to look for you."

Xiao Jun didn't heed to Senja and signaled her to take a seat again before taking one across her himself.

"Prince Xiao Jun, thank you for saving my life." She said with the courtesy she knew.

"You must thank Tianyao. I had almost killed you at that time." He gently remarked.

Xiao Jun's honest and calm declaration gave her goosebumps as she recollected the bloody scene when the two of them had killed the assassins and Feng Chang.

But, alongside Senja had realized something else too. **Was this also why Xiao Tianyao had shielded her from his brother, because Xiao Jun intended to kill her because of her ability? ** Senja shivered.

Had Xiao Tianyao not been around to stop Xiao Jun, she would have been long dead by now.

**Even so, why? **

They had had a nice chat and shared some secrets this evening, did he think that Senja would harm any of them?

"But, why did you want to kill me?"

Xiao Jun's calm face changed to one of regret, "My apologies. Probably it is because of the way I grew up. My grandfather, was the one who made the rules to kill every mind controller and that regulation holds even until today."

"I know, Prince Xiao Tianyao told me." Senja murmured and found that she was yet to get used to addressing him as 'Prince'.

"I formed my opinions based on my grandfather's narrative of how horrific mind controllers were. I won't hurt you. At least not until you do something dubious that has the potential to harm someone, especially Xiao Tianyao." Xiao Jun was a skilled speaker. He not only implicitly left her a way out but at the same time threatened her as well. "My response will be according to the way you use your ability."

When it came to the prowess of issuing veiled threats, the brothers were identical. They could threaten while still talking calmly.
