Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 134: I want short hair

Senja woke up because of her grumbling stomach. She opened her eyes lazily, considering to go back to sleep or not, but she couldn't ignore her hunger. Finally after struggling for a while, she sat up with her eyes still closed.

She caught a whiff of roast chicken that lingered in the air, the smell was very tempting. Slowly, Senja's eyes open brightly.

On the table, there was one steaming set meal, and with joy Senja threw open her blanket and run to the table with eagerness.

It was indeed roasted chicken with a bowl of rice, vegetables, tofu and the other side dishes. She ran to the basin, washed her face and hands clean before devouring all the food on the table. For a moment of joy, she forgot about all the things that had happened earlier.

When she finished her food, she started to realize her sorry condition. Her hair was disheveled and her dress was dirty while all of those bad scenes started to fill her memories.

However, with a full stomach, she wasn't as depressed as before, "At least, I am still alive and kicking." She shrugged her shoulder nonchalantly to boost her mood.

Senja knew it was the middle of the night but she felt itchy with her dirty dress, not noticing it earlier because she was exhausted and sleepy. Therefore, she went to slept the moment Xiao Tianyao said he would be in the next room and closed the door. Perhaps, because she knew that he would be in the room beside her, the sense of security allowed her to sleep deeply.

However, now she really needed a bath to clean herself up, by the time she was done, the night had fallen with the moon shining brightly.

She was drying her hair for a few minute before giving up. Her hands grew tired and not having the energy to lift them up, thus her hair remained damp.

Due to no energy, she opened the window and let hair dry as the cool night breeze gently caressed her face, making her feel refreshed.

Through the window, she saw a small pavilion not too far, the small pavilion was surrounded by the pink carnation flowers, it looks like a part of the carnation garden that she had walked passed by the first time she came here.

The pavilion piqued Senja's interest as she pulled up her dress and jump from the window. She knew the Crescent Moon members were guarding the place and the number increased by 5 times from the last time. It appeared Xiao Tianyao had strengthened the protection around the Carnation Resort.

As for the Crescent Moon Members, because there was no order to restrict Senja's movement, they didn't do anything when they saw her.

Senja walked across the pathway made of marble stones and took a detour to the under pavilion stairs. She stepped on it one by one. Inside the pavilion was a long granite table with a long bench on each side.

She sat at the end of the bench near the porch and put her head on the table while her damp hair scattered all over it, "This way, it will dry faster" She muttered satisfied while enjoying the night breeze on her face. She couldn't take a short nap because she had just awaken so, she hummed a song that she knew and closed her eyes.

"You will catch a cold if you continue like that" A husky voice rang in the small pavilion.

Senja was beyond familiar with this voice already, hence she only halted her humming for a moment before continuing like nothing happened.

Xiao Tianyao was in his study room when he saw Senja jump from her window. Initially, he wanted to know what she was up to, but who knew that she would be sitting here leisurely? When he saw her wet hair, he understood immediately.

He walked to the bench to sit across from Senja and flick her forehead lightly, "I just told you, you will catch a cold."

Because the flick was very light, Senja ignored it and just rubbed her forehead. She didn't even lift it when she said, "I wish I could cut short my hair." She mumbled with her eyes still closed.

"You will have a lot of trouble marrying in the future, if you cut your hair short"
