Purple Dawn Till Dusk : Dearest Through The Time Chapter 431

Without a choice Xiao Jun and Ye Bai entered the room, their eyes still stick at Xiao Tianyao grip on Senja's wrist.
Senja lowered her head to hide her tears.
"Don't start crying at me. You better save your fake tears." Xiao Tianyao warned her in low voice that made Senja shivered involuntarily by the enmity that laced in his tone.
Senja used to cry when the situation wasn't in her favor, but Xiao Tianyao should know about her better. All this time he always knew if she was fake her tears or not. But, his anger blinded him, he accused her.
She didn't fake it! It hurt Senja when she saw the hostility in his eyes.
Xiao Tianyao pushed her inside the room and at the same time let go of his grip on her wrist.
Senja almost tripped on her feet, fortunately Xiao Jun's reflexes were quick to secure her. He held Senja until she could stand steadily.
"Are you alright?" Xiao Jun asked Senja worriedly. "Let me see." He wanted to see her wrist, but Senja cradle her hand and hid it under her sleeve.
"I am fine." She said. Her voice was broken.
If anything she was far away from being fine.
Ye Bai approached them and glared at Xiao Tianyao, disapproving his behavior. "Tianyao!"
Xiao Tianyao ignored Ye Bai. He swept his gaze to the three of them with smirked made its way on his lips. "Now I want to know the truth." He demanded.
The four of them stood up, glaring at each other.
Meanwhile Senja was half hiding behind Xiao Jun. Lost in thought. She didn't care what their conversation was, all she knew was her heart screaming in pain. The pain of the bruises that Senja certain had started to form couldn't be compared with what she felt right now.

"What the truth you want to know?" Xiao Jun asked him.
"Don't playing dumb with me Jun, I am not in the mood." Xiao Tianyao warned him.
"You sick bastard." Ye Bai cursed under his breath.
The moment he finished his word, a dagger flew past his eyes. Cut his cheek. It was so fast and Ye Bai didn't see it coming. When he realized it, his cheek had been cut and blood running down his face.
"Tianyao! Stop doing that!" Xiao Jun didn't expect that move as well. "You are being irrational!"
"Start talking!" Xiao Tianyao shouted out loud. "Tell me everything about what had happened to Luna!"
"I am not taking your order! Bastard!" Ye Bai was on edge with the mention of Luna's name. "I will not say anything!"
Since the beginning, Ye Bai always didn't know how to use his word wisely. His words was only brought tragic ending for him and people involved around him.
"Let's see what I can do to make you talk!" Xiao Tianyao said threateningly.
"STOP BOTH OF YOU!!!" Once again Xiao Jun lost it. "Fine! I will tell you what had happened six years ago." Xiao Jun closed his eyes, trying to catch up with his breath as he felt his heart cave in.
He didn't want Xiao Tianyao knew about this. But, it seemed this was the only way.
"Tianyao. I just want to say the truth will hurt you." Xiao Jun looked at his brother, sadness in his eyes showed how much he cherished his younger brother.
"Do you think to see both of you." Xiao Tianyao glared at Senja and his brother. "Hiding something behind my back, I will be fine with that? You treated me like a fool!"

"Tianyao, it isn't like that." Xiao Jun interfered.
"Secret and betrayal are sucks, you know that." Xiao Tianyao cocked his head. "Those are what led us to this day."
"Tianyao, you misunderstood the situation."
"Which part that I misunderstood? The part where you saved Gong Xu? Oh, I almost forgot, both of you was trying to save him." The mocking tone and sarcasm in Xiao Tianyao's voice was clear to hear.
"I didn't save him! You will kill the wrong person!"
"You are so sure that it wasn't him who had killed Luna." Xiao Tianyao directed his sight toward Senja. "How about you? You know him right?" He nodded to Ye Bai. "Answer me!"
Senja's body jerked as she cowered behind Xiao Jun's back, she raised her head slightly and tears started to form in her eyes again. "I know him, but it is not the way …"
"You know him." Xiao Tianyao nodded, emphasized the part that was important for him. "Now, stop wasting our time. Tell me what you know about Luna?"
Xiao Tianyao glared at Ye Bai who refused to talk and looked at him. His expression was kind of trying to ignore Xiao Tianyao existence in the room. Of course it was something impossible to do.
When Xiao Tianyao was about to go violent again due to Ye Bai was so adamant to not talk at all, Xiao Jun spoke.
"Luna is mind controller."
Almost instantly, Xiao Tianyao's attention snapped at him.
"No, she was not." Xiao Tianyao was directly going into denial.
"And she is Modama's daughter."
This time, Xiao Tianyao's expression was one who at lost. He lost his word to deny Xiao Jun statement.
However, Xiao Jun didn't stop there, he continued.
"Luna is mind controller." Xiao Jun reiterated his word earlier. "And she was also the person who had blocked your memory."
"Jun, where is this accusation coming from?" Xiao Tianyao staggered back slightly, as if the news almost knocked him down.
"You want the truth, here is the truth. Why should I accuse her?" Xiao Jun said calmly. "She meant nothing for me."
He remembered how Luna had turned Xiao Tianyao to go against him and almost killed them both. She was nothing, no more than disaster. Even now her issue brought harm for him.
Upon hearing Xiao Jun's brash statement, Xiao Tianyao fumed in anger again.
"You don't love her Tianyao. She used you." Xiao Jun confronted.
Senja's body was shaking in feared by Xiao Tianyao's indignation. "Xiao Jun…" She whimpered behind his back, trying to warn him that he almost crossed the line.
Yet, Xiao Jun wasn't done yet.
"You don't even remember how she died." He talked in matter of fact tone
