Chapter 276: Another warning!
Chapter 276: Another warning!
Senja didn't immediately understand what Xiao Jun was hinting at. Amidst her confusion, he continued to speak.
"I just want to let you know that it isn't easy to be with my brother."
"He isn't that scary I guess"
"If love is water then a lot of it can drown you."
Senja snickered, "I doubt he could drown me; he doesn't seem to have much."
"He has, he just doesn't show it to you. He even let go of his status once for this thing." Xiao Jun still had that smile plastered on his lips. "I hope you don't bring trouble for him and watch your every move."
**There you go, another warning from him.**
"I am not looking for trouble, but since we live with it, who am I to avoid it?" Senja had had enough of his warnings. She knew that he was concerned about his younger brother but that didn't mean he could blame her for every misfortune that befell upon Xiao Tianyao. "He is a grown man who can hold his ground. Don't you think that you are overreacting to me?"
Xiao Jun's smile faded for a while before blooming again. "Well said."
"Thank you." Senja said offhandedly and was about to open the door when Xiao Jun stopped her again.
"Don't misunderstand me. There are many things that could justify my overreaction that I can't tell you about yet. Actually, what I meant is, he can be quite annoying if you can't handle his affections well."
This time, Xiao Jun turned the knob and entered the room first, but then he looked over his shoulder at Senja and said, "That was a good move to scare Young Miss Sana off." As he said this, there was a trace of laughter in his voice.
Senja bit her lips and closed her eyes in embarrassment. **If he knows about it, he doesn't need to mention it in front of me, right?**
Both the brothers were extremely exasperating.
.....
They reached the gates of Black Sword Clan early the next morning, minus Xiao Jun who had parted ways with them last night.
Senja woke up when they opened the heavy black gate with an insignia of two swords crossing each other etched at the centre. The gate was so heavy that it needed 5 people on each side to open it.
Senja stuck her head out of the window. The view before her eyes was truly magnificent. Black Sword Clan was truly beautiful. It almost looked like a mini town with many people going about their business. Senja assumed they were the Shadow Guards. No wonder these soldiers belonged from here, she could see the spacious training ground where all the soldiers were training. Their every movement was powerful and precise, emanating such vibes that one could just not ignore.
Their small group made its way to the core of the mansion where the main family lived.
When the carriage stopped Senja excitedly jumped off and looked at the beautiful house in front of her.
**Amazing!** Senja sighed in awe. **Now I wonder why Elder Dam's granddaughter ran away**
Elder Dam embraced her when he saw how Senja stunned was. "Welcome home my child."
Senja looked at him and grinned ear to ear.
"This is the main house, I had informed Carye that we would be back today, so she has made some arrangements to welcome you."
After Elder Dam spoke, from inside the house a woman in her late 30's came out. She carried about her the aura of the mistress of the household. At a glance Senja knew she was her stepmother Carye.
Carye wore a beautiful yellow dress with intricate embroidery along the sleeves. It made her look stunningly elegant. Behind her, a girl in her early 20's followed closely.
