Despite his frustration, Xiao Tianyao reached out his hands and with his big palms he covered both of Senja's ears to prevent her from hearing something inappropriate.

The moment Xiao Tianyao's big palms made a contact with Senja's ears her face became rigid. Under his palms, Senja's skin was scorching hot. She moved awkwardly, didn't even know where she had to place her sight at and was fiddling with her sleeves, looked like in the verge of crying.

"Stay still." Xiao Tianyao warned in low voice. Her anxious movements made him upset.

He took Senja own hand to covered her own ears and mouthing to her, "Stay here, I will be back."

Senja's eyes flashed with shock, "Don't leave me." She hissed.

"Stay!" Xiao Tianyao glared sternly at her that made Senja couldn't refute him anymore. After he warned her, Xiao Tianyao leapt swiftly trough the scuttle attic leaving Senja behind.

She kept staring at the dark hollow attic above her head, didn't have any idea why Xiao Tianyao left her alone.

The activity on the bed became more unbearable for Senja, her face completely blank. Is he really ran away and leave me behind??

Senja shook her head. No. It doesn't look like his personality… but, why he didn't come back? Xiao Tianyao didn't know that his presences like a shield for Senja to prevent her from absorbed the feeling around her. Now, with Xiao Tianyao absent, even if Senja couldn't hear those ambiguous sounds, she still could feel their emotions!

Damn! Damn again! And damn again!

When Senja's mind was almost exploded by the atmosphere, Xiao Tianyao's hand reached out from the scuttle attic that was open above her. Without second thought Senja jumped to reach his hand and grabbed it tightly as Xiao Tianyao pulled her up.

The moment Senja stepped in the attic she closed the lid of the scuttle attic to muffle the sound from under it and breathed in relief, whether their movements that were very subtle or the two people on the bed that too busy to noticed them, no one aware about Senja and Xiao Tianyao. At least they were safe now.

That was what Senja's thought. When she had calm down, her eyes wandered in the space around her and found out there were laying not less than 7 people with black robe and masks on their faces, not moving.

Senja's gasped and directed her eyes at Xiao Tianyao. She didn't believe in the short moment he took when he is gone to the attic was actually to take care of the hidden guards. The most shocking part was 7 against 1 and they were defeated easily. Suddenly she remembered that Xiao Tianyao had stared at the attic when she approached him before. She thought Xiao Tianyao was looking for scuttle attic, who knew that he actually assessed the situation. How he knew beforehand? How he can manage to do that?

Senja kept staring at him for some good second before retracted her eyes because he had walked away without waiting for her. Senja shrugged aside those questions and hurriedly stood up, to chase after him. She moved as silently as possible.

This attic wasn't very comfortable to walk. Because of his height, Xiao Tianyao needed to bend his body 45 degrees in order to not bump his head to the wooden pole. Senja in the other hand just need to slightly bend her neck.

"Actually you just need order Yang Yu to investigate this matter further right?" Senja tried to build a good atmosphere and familiarized herself with him.

"No." He replied curtly.
