Chapter 287: The twins
The two of them were ogling at her profoundly, yet, the moment their eyes locked with Senja's, their jaws dropped open and they screeched.
"YOU!" They shouted simultaneously and raced towards Senja's table.
"What are you doing here?" Asked the three of them in unison.
Sheng sat on Senja's right side while Xun on to the left, conveniently trapping Senja in the middle.
"See? I told you it's HER!" Sheng bickered with his twin, "She is even wearing purple."
"Just because she is wearing purple doesn't mean it IS her." Xun wasn't the docile type at all.
"Her hair is purple, of course she would wear something to match her hair color."
"She is covering her hair, perhaps her hair has changed?"
Senja who was sitting in the middle gritted her teeth as she heard the quibbling around her.
"Arrgghh! Enough both of you!" Senja glared daggers at them.
Unexpectedly, it was very effective. Sheng and Xun shut their mouths at the very instance.
"What are the two of you doing here?" Senja could finally ask her question.
"We have business here." Sheng answered her.
"Yes, running some errand." Xun chimed in.
Right then, Senja thoughts ran off to the boy in her vision. "Do you know the boy named Lee? He was there among the 51 children."
"Oh, that little boy?" Xun answered as he recognized the one, "He is with us, happy and healthy."
"Glad to know that."
But that wasn't the answer that Senja was looking for.
"Where did you bring those children? Can I see Lee?" Senja was still curious about her vision, there was no relation between Lee and Hu Feng yet this thing was very bothersome.
Right at that moment, the food arrived.
"Our place, Greenhill Mountain." Sheng replied while busying himself with the snack without bothering to ask Senja's permission as he stuffed it in his mouth.
"Hey! You shouldn't tell her." Xun objected and stuffed a piece into his mouth as well.
"Why? She is one of us, right? Uncle Su spoke so much about her."
Senja grabbed Sheng's upper arm, "Where is he? Where is Uncle Su?"
Sheng's eyes widened in surprise at Senja's abrupt reaction.
"We don't know. We lost him."
"Again." A dejected Xun added, before shoving another piece into his mouth.
"What do you mean you lost him again?!" Senja turned to Xun beside her.
He shrugged, "We had just finished our assignment in another City, but Uncle Su insisted on coming here."
"And now we lost him." Sheng inserted.
"We were supposed to watch him, but our martial arts is no match to his." Xun pitched in modestly.
"We had been looking for him when we saw you entering the restaurant." Sheng explained.
"Senja?"
Yoda came in with an old lady who was wearing what looked like rags.
"Who are they?" He narrowed his eyes in suspicion while his hand brushed the hilt on his sword.
"They are friends. Don't worry." Senja stood up while Sheng and Xun also joined her.
"You don't have friends Senja!" Yoda countered, clearly doubting her words.
Senja wanted to facepalm herself. She knew that she didn't have much people around her and even didn't get along with Sana, but Yoda's words had really hurt her self-confidence.
"Of course, I have friends. What, do you think I can't make a friend?"
Yoda shook his head. "That's not what I mean. You just came here yesterday, remember?"
"I made friends with them the day before yesterday, okay?"
"Alright." Yoda surrendered.
"Senja, this is my mother." He introduced the woman beside him.
The woman appeared teary eyed; it was obvious that she had just cried her eyes out as had Yoda.
"Thank you, Young Miss Senja, to bring Yoda back. Yoda told this lowly one everything. Young Miss Senja really lives up to her name as a benevolent lady, this slave is really fortunate to have a chance to meet with Young Miss." She spoke in a low voice.
The low voice could be because Yoda had instructed her against drawing any kind of attention to Senja. But right after that the woman attempted to kneel, so Senja immediately came forward to stop her.
"You will draw attention if you do that." Senja said, panic in her voice.
