After traveling through time, the four best friends were all targeted by the boss

"Oh, I see." Tao Tao smiled softly and sat down.

Yi An looked at her with an unclear look in his eyes: "Miss Tao, has Yi Qing come to see you?"

Tao Tao lowered her head, sadness on her face: "I did look for him, but I just don't want to see him."

As she said this, she pinched herself hard.

Yi An came closer to her: "Oh? Why?"

Tao Tao raised her head, her eyes full of anger: "He really needs to change his temper."

"But he doesn't want to." Yi An said in a low voice, "Miss Tao, you have been back to Xiahou Mansion so often recently. Is there something wrong?"

Tao Tao's heart skipped a beat. Was he trying to trick her?

"Well... Nian Nian said she wanted to go to Xiaoyao City. I don't know the specific reason." Tao Tao said, thinking of the plan Yi Qing told her.

"Miss Xia, I haven't seen her for a long time." Yi An touched his chin, and the white figure flashed through his mind. "How is her relationship with Master Xiahou?"

Tao Tao waved her hands and said awkwardly: "I'm not sure about this either. After all, it's their business."

Yi An nodded and said, "That's right."

Tao Tao couldn't stand it anymore. She stood up and said apologetically, "I'll put the book back first. I have to go to the street to buy medicine later."

She was about to run away, but unexpectedly Yi An took the lead and grabbed her arm.

"Let me accompany Miss Tao." His tone was calm, but his eyes were inquiring.

Tao Tao felt like she was being pricked by a thorn and was about to agree reluctantly, but she felt a gust of wind blowing from behind her, and the next second, she was embraced in a warm embrace.

Tao Tao raised her head and saw Yi Qing's handsome face. He was staring at Yi An with a little anger.

Yi An was not to be outdone and grabbed Tao Tao's hand, looking at him teasingly.

"Yiqing? Why are you here?" Tao Tao swallowed, her face a little pale. In order to prevent Yian from noticing anything, she pushed Yiqing.

Yiqing lowered his eyes and looked at her, his eyes were extremely gentle, as if saying: I will take you away.

Tao Tao pinched her palms, trying hard not to show any abnormality.

"I told you to stay away from her!" Yiqing looked at Yian again, his eyes suddenly changed, and his tone was filled with endless disgust and threats.

Yi An snorted and laughed, feeling proud in his heart: "You don't have to make a big fuss, why not ask Miss Tao who she chooses?"

Yi Qing had a cold face. He knew of course that Tao Tao chose him in her heart, but now in order to hide it from Yi An, Tao Tao would definitely say that she chose Yi An.

Yi An had already looked at Tao Tao, who lowered her head and bit her lips. Suddenly, she raised her head and glanced at Yi An, her eyes full of helplessness and pleading. Her eyes told her that she wanted to choose him, but was afraid that he would fight with Yi Qing.

Yi An was in a good mood. He frowned and pulled Tao Tao hard, which scared Tao Tao.

Yi Qing took advantage of this moment and suddenly attacked him with a powerful palm energy. Yi An was caught off guard and barely dodged it.

Yiqing put his arm around Tao Tao's waist and protected her behind him.

Tao Tao secretly thought that this was not good. If Yi Qing hurt him, she would have to examine him again!

Tao Tao stretched out her hand and pushed Yi Qing. The two of them looked at her together. Tao Tao was in tears and looked at them stubbornly and pitifully.

Yiqing felt distressed and reached out to pull her, but Tao Tao slapped his hand away. She turned around and ran outside.

Tao Tao mentally collapsed: Please end this war, she really can’t stand it anymore!

Yiqing glared at Yian and chased after him.

Poor Tao Tao ran desperately, but just as she reached the entrance of the alley outside, she was stopped by Yi Qing who had caught up with her.

"A Tao!" He called her and reached out to grab her hand.

Tao Tao ignored her tears. She held Yi Qing's wrist, lowered her eyes to look at his big hand with distinct joints, and asked with sobs, "Are you okay? Did it hurt just now?"

Yiqing didn't expect her to ask this, and her ears turned red. She said softly, "It's okay. I was worried about whether you were okay."

He leaned over and gently rubbed the corners of her eyes with his rough thumbs. Because of crying, Tao Tao's eyes were red, which made her originally pure face look more charming.

Yiqing's ears turned slightly red. He quickly wiped her tears, picked her up by the waist, and rushed to his house.

Tao Tao hugged his neck obediently and rested her little head on his chest.

She was still worrying about how to escape from Yi An's rhetoric, but unexpectedly Yi Qing came.

Thinking of this, Tao Tao looked at Yiqing gratefully.

"What's wrong?" Yiqing asked, noticing her look.

"Aqing, you are really my life-saving talisman." Tao Tao praised sincerely.

Yiqing grinned, feeling somewhat proud in his heart: "Of course, I will protect you."

Yian stood in the yard and did not chase out.

He secretly thought that Tao Tao would come to find him.

However, Yi Qing's palm strike just now was really powerful. No wonder he was chosen as the successor. Yi An smiled sarcastically.

No matter how strong his martial arts skills are, he is still just a young boy, he thought indifferently.

-

It had been two days since Gu Ling left. Meng Yin counted the days and sat down in the yard with the picture book.

There were only her and Xia Nian in the yard. Meng Yin was flipping through the picture book in her hand with some boredom, sighing repeatedly.

Xia Nian stopped practicing dancing, walked over to sit next to her and said, "Yinyin, what's wrong with you?"

She rarely saw her like this, looking listless, like a scarecrow that had to work in the fields.

"I...I'm just sad." she said.

Xia Nian heard this and asked, "Why are you sad? Because of Gu Ling, right?"

Meng Yin nodded. She propped up her head, feeling extremely powerless. "What should I do, Nian Nian? I think I really like him."

Xia Nian was silent for a long time, she didn't know what to do.

"Yinyin, you have to think about it carefully. For example, are you suitable for each other?" After a long while, Xia Nian said, "Also, they don't seem to have the concept of being together here. Basically, they just get married directly, right?"

Meng Yin became even more depressed when he heard this.

Xia Nian was about to comfort her when Xiao Xian suddenly ran in and said, "Lord Xiahou asked me to tell the two girls that Master Gu succeeded!"

"Really!?" Meng Yin stood up suddenly and slammed the table.

Xiao Xian didn't expect her to react so strongly, and nodded in daze.

"What this means is that Gu Ling has successfully infiltrated them." Xia Nian lowered his head and said in a deep voice.

"That's right." Xiao Xian nodded.

The third step of their plan was to make the other party mistakenly believe that they went to Wushan yesterday based on the false information revealed by Yiqing. Gu Ling led a group of people disguised as businessmen, sneaked into Wushan, caught those who were ambushing there, and then disguised themselves as them.

Meng Yin was so excited that she felt like a willow catkin bathed in the spring breeze. She was so happy that she wanted to shout.

"I'll go buy some food!" Meng Yin said to Xia Nian, and then she skipped out.

Xiao Xian looked at Xia Nian blankly, "What happened to Miss Meng?"

Xia Nian smiled helplessly, and suddenly remembered something, and said to Xiao Xian: "This is the consequence of falling in love with someone, you must not learn from Yin Yin."

Xiao Xian touched his head and lowered it somewhat embarrassedly.

Is Miss Xia hinting that he shouldn't like her?

Xia Nian turned his eyes away and walked out of the courtyard, "Master Xiao, I'm going to look for Master Xiahou."

After taking a few steps, she turned around and said to Xiao Xian, "It's getting dark now. Mr. Xiao, can you follow Yinyin and protect her? I'm worried that something might happen to her."

Xiao Xian looked a little lonely, Xia Nian gritted his teeth and ignored it.

Hearing Xia Nian's words, Xiao Xian certainly would not refuse. He immediately said, "Okay, Miss Xia, don't worry."
