376 YOU ARE WELCOME (1/2)

After a bit commotion in the afternoon, finally Xiao Tianyao decided to stay overnight in the G City. Like before, he just booked one luxurious room for both of them. This time Senja didn't complain.

She was too tired to even order a dinner, fortunately, she had been eating along the way. While riding a horse was boring, because she was unable to chat with Xiao Tianyao and it was impossible for her to chat with herself.

So, Senja often stopped at the food stall and snacked all the way. Xiao Tianyao couldn't complain about this or else she would be more unreasonable.

Just imagine, riding a horse all day, no talking, no teasing and only a little bit resting. How stressful it was, added to they still had days ahead before they reached their destination.

After Xiao Tianyao and Senja clean up themselves, Senja snuggled in Xiao Tianyao embraced as she breathed in his unique scent that lulled her to sleep.

”Good night…” Senja said between her yawn.

Xiao Tianyao kissed her head and covered both of them with blanket.

The night was still long and the sun hasn't risen yet. Their room was enveloped with dark as every source of lights has died out. In the sky, the moon refused to shine.

Senja was in deep sleep when she felt someone squeezed her shoulder. She wanted to complain, but her protest muffled inside a big palm which covered her mouth.

Her eyes snapped open immediately. She was a little bit relaxed when she saw it was Xiao Tianyao. But…

**What is he doing?** Senja tried to convey her question through her eyes, but all she got was Xiao Tianyao shushed her to keep quite.

And the next moment, Senja knew what was happening. She could literary feel the murderous intent that surrounding her.

After Xiao Tianyao saw the understanding of the situation on Senja's eyes, he gave her dagger and crept down from the bed.

He was as calm as ever when one of the intruders started attacking him, yet, effortlessly he knocked him down. Senja became more alert with this, she unsheathed her dagger and held it in her hands cautiously.

Assessing her surrounding, she could feel how many of them. She tugged Xiao Tianyao's sleeve and gestured him the number of the intruders.

She opened her palm and stretched five of her fingers while her other hand pointing the balcony, afterwards she did the same to the front door.

Xiao Tianyao was surprised by Senja's information, but he knew how she knows all of that and nodded in understanding.

Senja assumed they would split the amount of intruders that they would face, that was why when Xiao Tianyao walked toward the door, instinctively she got off from the bed and approached the intruder at the balcony.

However, Xiao Tianyao held her shoulder and pushed her back toward the bed as he spoke in low voice. ”Stay.”
