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

"Ma'am, I am really sorry for tiring you."

Tao Tao turned around. The man in front of her was very tall, with a small beard and his hair was tied up, but his smile made Tao Tao inexplicably uncomfortable.

There was a sudden noise behind them. Tao Tao turned her head and saw the little girl who was squatting on the ground stood up and hid behind them.

Her eyes were evasive, and Tao Tao saw extreme fear in them.

Is she afraid of this person? Tao Tao thought.

"It's okay. This is what I should do." She said seriously, "Excuse me, who are you?"

"I am the chief of the Qianji Sect, Pang Ren." As he spoke, his sharp eyes swept over the people behind Tao Tao, and both mother and daughter couldn't help but stretch their shoulders.

"Yes, Chief Pang." Tao Tao nodded and sat on the bench. "Can you explain why the doctors in the church didn't treat him?"

Pang Ren walked forward and stood three steps away from her, glancing at A Shuo behind Tao Tao.

"Madam, you don't know, because the doctors in the sect don't treat servants. They only serve the young master, the protectors and the four hall masters." Pang Ren's expression was calm, and he was not nervous because of Tao Tao's words.

"Of course, and now you too. This is a long-standing rule, and the young master has no intention of changing it."

He narrowed his eyes, stared straight at Tao Tao's white arms, and then looked away.

"So if they get sick, they have to call an outside doctor?" Tao Tao asked.

"We have no money..." the woman suddenly spoke weakly.

Tao Tao nodded to show that she understood. If she had the money, she wouldn't have waited until now to get treatment.

"Yes, this is the rule of the sect." Pang Ren said.

"Rules are dead, but people are alive." Tao Tao stared at him with her almond-shaped eyes, blocking his words. She stood up and patted the dust off her body, "Okay, you guys can go down."

Pang Ren nodded, he lowered his head, raised his eyelids when he turned around, with a hint of threat in his eyes, he only glanced at the woman.

After Pang Ren left, Tao Tao immediately asked the woman, "Auntie, what's your name?"

"My last name is Chu..." the woman said slowly.

"Okay, Aunt Chu." Tao Tao went straight to the point, "So, like he just said, it's because the doctors in the church are not responsible for treating the people below?"

"We can also give them money to come, but..." She choked up and cried while hugging the little girl.

"Alas." Tao Tao sighed and turned to ask the girl in her arms, "Xiao Chu, can you tell me?"

Xiao Chu shook her head. She didn't dare to say anything. The man's wild laughter and her father's falling figure kept echoing in her mind, as if warning her that she would be punished if she dared to speak out.

"Okay, then tell me first, what does your husband do in the church?" Tao Tao asked.

She was somewhat confused, could these martial arts sects support their families?

"I'm just an ordinary cook. Two years ago, our son drowned and our daughter is weak. The old man had no choice but to ask the steward to let us live here." The woman explained.

"Ask the butler?" Tao Tao frowned. "Shouldn't I go talk to Yi Qing about this?"

Aunt Chu shook her head and wiped away her tears: "Young Master, he..." She raised her head and glanced at Ah Shuo behind her, her voice lowered a lot, "Young Master, don't mind these trivial matters."

She didn't dare to say it, but Tao Tao could guess that they were probably afraid that Yi Qing would refuse or even drive them out.

Could it be that Yiqing has a bad reputation in the church? She thought with some fear.

But maybe Yiqing doesn't care about these things at all.

"Okay, I understand." She said, "Remember the precautions I told you to take. Don't let the wound get infected."

"Yes, yes, I will definitely remember this." Aunt Chu nodded repeatedly. She pressed Xiao Chu's neck and said, "Kowtow to the Madam, quickly."

"No need!" Tao Tao supported her in time, and her tone became gentle, "I won't force you. When you want to talk, come to me, and I will definitely help you."

She didn't say what it was, but her eyes were full of encouragement and hope. She reached out and rubbed the girl's head, then left with A Shuo.

When they got outside, Tao Tao's face became serious, "A Shuo, did Yi Qing have a bad temper before?"

"Ah... Madam, are we going to talk about the young master behind his back?" Ah Shuo scratched his forehead, not daring to speak.

"It's not gossip. I'm helping him." Tao Tao turned her head and looked at him, and her expression didn't seem like she was joking.

"Okay, Madam." Ah Shuo also became serious, "The young master used to have a bad temper, but he has become more restrained after meeting you."

"What about him in the church? What's his prestige?" Tao Tao asked hurriedly.

"He is very prestigious because the young master keeps his word and will kill without mercy." Ah Shuo said.

Tao Tao fell silent. She probably knew why they didn't dare to look for Yiqing.

Because his methods of ruling his subordinates were too harsh, he was ruthless and regarded human life as worthless in their eyes.

"Okay, go to the warehouse and get some nourishing things for them." Tao Tao said, walking towards Yiqing's study.

"Okay, ma'am." Ah Shuo agreed. Seeing Tao Tao's stubborn and thin back, he guessed that the young master was going to be humiliated again.

When Tao Tao came to Yiqing's study, he was chatting with someone inside.

She was a little anxious and pushed the door open without thinking. The people standing inside all looked at her.

Yiqing sat on the couch behind the long table, one hand on his knee and the other turning a pen. His thoughts were interrupted and he was about to get angry, but when he looked up he saw that the person coming was Tao Tao, and he instantly put away his anger.

Tao Tao didn't expect that there were four other people inside. She quickly recalled that they were the people sitting in the front in the lobby in the morning. She thought they should be the masters of the four halls.

"Atao, why are you here?" Yiqing stood up and walked towards her.

Tao Tao's face didn't look good. She looked at the people next to her and said, "You go first, and come find me in the room later."

After saying that, she walked away. Yiqing reached out to hold her hand, but it remained suspended in mid-air. When the four people behind her saw this, they all thought that they were doomed.

However, Yiqing did not become violent as they expected. He turned his head and said calmly, "You go down first."

Looking at Yiqing's slightly anxious steps, the four of them stared at each other and didn't react for a long time.

Is there finally someone who can control this fearless young master of their family?

In the corridor, Yiqing ran up to Tao Tao and grabbed her wrist, and asked hurriedly: "A Tao, are you angry?"

Tao Tao shook her head, looked around, and pulled him into the house.

The door was closed, and Tao Tao asked directly: "Ah Qing, are the rules of Qianji Sect very strict?"

"It's quite strict." Yiqing didn't expect her to ask this, so he answered her truthfully.

"How did you discipline your subordinates in the past?" Tao Tao sat on the round stool, frowning slightly.

"If he's obedient, keep him. If he's not, kill him." Yi Qing blurted out, but he thought Tao Tao would blame him after hearing this, so he added, "Of course, if there is absolute evidence."

Tao Tao thought about it and found something wrong.

Yiqing is not without human feelings, and he has Ah Shuo by his side to advise him. Many people in the sect have never even spoken to Yiqing due to their status restrictions, so why are they so afraid of Yiqing?

A figure flashed through her mind, and she muttered, "No, not here."

"What's wrong?" Yiqing held her shoulders, "A Tao, did you see something?"

"Pang Ren is the chief steward of Qianji Sect?" Tao Tao did not answer him, "Does he have any other identities?"

Yiqing thought for a moment and said, "Yes, if I must say it... He is a good friend of my father, the previous leader, and he has stayed in the sect even after my father passed away. What's wrong with him? Is there something wrong with him?"
