Purple Dawn Till Dusk: Dearest through the time

Chapter 309: Drunk!

Xiao Tianyao was gone for quite a while now and Senja got bored waiting for him. She strolled to the other room and found the table that Xiao Tianyao and Elder Dam had been sitting at. The two glasses on the table were yet to be cleared.

Out of curiosity, she went over to the table. A closer look revealed a bottle with a shape she had never seen before. It obviously wasn't tea.

One sniff later.

Alcohol!

**They were drinking! ** Senja grumbled.

She had been worrying all day about how Elder Dam would lash out at Xiao Tianyao, but they had actually been drinking?!

The sweet smell of the liquor beckoned Senja for a taste. In her time, she had a good appetite for liquor. She had a decent tolerance level, but nothing to write home about. She had tasted almost all the liquors of modern times and it's all thanks to Sian.

Senja took a fresh glass and poured the liquid to the brim. She licked it as the bitter-sweet liquor teased her taste buds.

**It tastes good! **

Senja smiled and finished it in a single gulp. She poured a second glass, sniffed the scent and downed in a flash.

She chuckled gleefully; she liked its taste. However, when Senja was about to go for a third serving, out of nowhere Xiao Tianyao appeared and snatched it away from her.

"What are you doing? How much of this did you drink!?" He snapped at her.

"I just drank two small glasses." Senja said innocently, "It's okay, two glasses won't inebriate me"

"You don't even know what you have drunk!" Xiao Tianyao glared at her. "I can't even leave you for some time without you falling into trouble!"

Senja looked at him calmly. She was well aware of her tolerance level; thus, two small glasses weren't a big deal to her.

"I told you, it won't affect me."

Xiao Tianyao crossed his arms and raised his brows.

"Really?!"

Senja nodded her head vigorously, "Yes!"

However, as her head swayed up and down, she could sense her brain gyrate and the room spin. Senja furrowed her brows as she felt the heat from her stomach burn her entire body. She felt very warmno hot!

Xiao Tianyao looked on as Senja gradually became uncomfortable, without betraying any emotions. He just looked on as the girl's milky skin gradually turned red, her cheeks flushed to a deeper crimson and her breath became uneven.

**What's wrong?! ** Senja thought in dismay. **It is impossible that just two small glasses could affect me**

"Still feel okay?" Xiao Tianyao asked her coldly.

"What is this?" Senja asked in confusion.

Xiao Tianyao sighed and swept the girl off her feet as he carried her to his bed. A lightheaded Senja didn't utter a peep let alone protest.

Actually, it would have all been ok if only the drink was some normal alcohol. However, to Senja's bad luck, the drink was the infamous Drunken Lord. It had a high concentration of alcohol. Men couldn't even stomach three glasses to say nothing of Senja who had had two!

Elder Dam had brought it to celebrate Xiao Tianyao's plan but had only had a glass of the celebratory drink.

Who knew Senja would end up drinking as well?!

Xiao Tianyao lay her on the bed as the girl curled her body and mumbled something.

"Wait here, I will get you some medicine." Xiao Tianyao flicked her forehead.

He came back in two minutes later with two white pills and a glass of water.

"Drink this." Xiao Tianyao supported her head and helped her swallow the pills and lowered her down after.

"Can you stop worrying me?" He asked softly.

Senja didn't reply, she was dazed.

.....

Senja woke up with throbbing pain and found that her surrounding was dimly lit. She had only slept for a good few hours and the sun had yet rise.

She was in a drunken stupor as she sat up and looked around her. Her throat burned and was parched, forcing her to sluggishly walk to the table.

Only on the third glass did her dry throat find a slight respite, if only she could get rid of the blazing heat within her.. It wasn't helping as she wore many layers of her dress.

Festered, she felt better only after she took off her outer robe.

"Where is he?"

Even in her languor she still remembered that she had come to meet Xiao Tianyao, but the man was nowhere to be seen.

With a deep sigh, Senja walked out of the room towards his study.
