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

Meng Yin's heart trembled. He could smell it? He must be born in the Year of the Dog.

"Well, I just wanted to talk to you about this." Meng Yin said, "Don't be so angry yet."

Gu Ling stared at her as if she had done something heinous.

Meng Yin pulled him to sit in front of the bed and said, "I ran into Gu Huai when I went out this afternoon. It just so happens that he can help us. I also asked him and found out that he is no longer in cahoots with Han Lao Yi'an and the others."

Gu Ling remained silent upon hearing this, and his whole body seemed to be shrouded in a dark cloud.

Meng Yin thought about her plan. She had a feeling that it would succeed. A smile gradually appeared on her face. "Won't there be problems with the first and second halls? I guarantee that they will be exposed. Aren't they the hall masters? Who will be the new hall master then?"

Gu Ling pursed his lips for a long time before saying, "You went to see him again?"

Meng Yin said helplessly: "We just happened to meet on the road, and he can help."

Gu Ling frowned: "Don't worry about these things, why didn't you discuss it with me in advance."

Meng Yin was stunned: "Why not? Am I not discussing this with you?"

Gu Ling grabbed her shoulders and raised his voice: "Ayin, just stay by my side, okay? Don't worry about those things, I will take care of them. And Gu Huai, if you see him again, I will kill him."

As he spoke, his tone became heavier, which immediately aroused Meng Yin's dissatisfaction. She retorted: "What are you talking about? I'm not just helping you, this is for our future, isn't it? Gu Huai is no longer in cahoots with Old Han, do you have to kill him?"

"But I don't want you to face those people. It will be dangerous." Gu Ling paused, and seeing Meng Yin's face full of resistance, he said viciously: "Otherwise I will have no choice but to lock you up by my side!"

"What did you say?" Meng Yin looked at him in shock and tried to struggle his hand away. She couldn't, so she could only shout, "Gu Ling, I'm telling you, I can't hide behind you forever. I can do this, why don't you let me do it? Am I weak in your eyes?"

As she spoke, her expression became more severe and resentful: "I decided to be with you because I wanted to work hard with you. You protect me and I protect you. Isn't that good? Or is this just an excuse for your paranoid possessiveness?!"

"Or in your heart, you don't put me on an equal footing? I do whatever you tell me to do? I don't have freedom?!"

Meng Yin was really annoyed by his actions and words. No matter what her reasons and purposes were, he was always jealous, judging based on his own subjective assumptions, and even wanted to restrict her freedom. It was too unreasonable.

The series of rhetorical questions stunned Gu Ling. He stared at her with his dark pupils, as if he was enduring it, but also as if he was about to explode. After a while, he muttered to himself:

"I think Ayin is more important than myself. In my heart, Ayin is the most important... Why... Why..."

His voice was very low at the end, so Meng Yin couldn't hear it clearly. She moved closer and asked, "What did you say?"

Suddenly, he held her face with his hands, and looked at her with his pupils as if they had lost focus: "Ayin, Ayin, don't you love me anymore?"

Meng Yin said: "I love you! If I don't love you, why would I tell you this?"

"You're lying!" he shouted. "If you loved me, you wouldn't say those things to me, nor would you go see other men, and you wouldn't...you wouldn't hate me...don't hate me. How about this, I'll lock you up now, so that even if you hate me, you can only stay by my side."

Meng Yin panted, looked at him in disbelief, and laughed in anger: "What did you say? Gu Ling, do you have a split personality? What did you say to me last time? Why are you doing this again now?"

Gu Ling shook his head and said, "What is split personality? I don't have it. I just don't want you to get close to those dangers, and I don't want to see you get close to other men. The thought of something happening to you drives me crazy!"

"If you're not crazy, then I'll go crazy first!" Meng Yin didn't know where she got the strength from, she pushed him away and stood up, "Gu Ling, I'm sure I like you, but you can't force me to do something I don't want to do. You..."

She sighed, "Forget it, let's calm down for a while and change your mind, okay? Even if I talked to other boys, I only like you!"

Meng Yin raised her legs and was about to go out, but Gu Ling suddenly stood up, hugged her waist and threw her onto the bed. Before Meng Yin opened her mouth to scream, Gu Ling covered her lips.

He seemed to be venting his dissatisfaction as he nibbled and bit Meng Yin. Meng Yin's legs were pinned down by him and her hands were held above her head, so she had no power to fight back at all.

Meng Yin couldn't stand it anymore. A huge feeling of grievance spread in her heart. She gradually stopped struggling. No matter how fierce Gu Ling's actions were, she just shed tears silently.

The smell of blood spread between their lips. Gu Ling felt the coldness on her cheek and slowly raised his head.

Meng Yin didn't look at him and avoided his hand wiping her tears.

The two were speechless for a moment. Meng Yin felt something flowing out of her lips, but she didn't care. Now she had only one idea, which was to teach this man born in the Year of the Dog a lesson and ask him to change his temper.

Maybe it can't be changed, but at least he should restrain his morbid thoughts a little.

"Ayin, I..." Seeing her crying, Gu Ling panicked and couldn't say the words of apology. He was also angry at her for insisting on getting involved in those dangers and meeting with people he hated.

Each of them had their own reasons, and neither of them would give in. When Gu Ling relaxed a little, Meng Yin pushed him away, sat up, and wiped the blood off her lips.

"Don't follow me!" She walked out, and when she heard footsteps behind her, she shouted without even turning her head, "If you dare to come, I will hit you head-on and kill you!"

Gu Ling looked at her back, her words just now lingering in his mind, forcing him to stop.

He retreated to the bed, squatted on the ground with his hands on his head, and buried his head in his knees.

Meng Yin was so angry that she kicked the stones on the ground in the yard.

She went into the side courtyard, called a maid to make the bed, and found pen and ink to continue writing the letter.

When there was a knock on the door, she thought it was Gu Ling and shouted, "Come in."

Qiao Yi pushed the door open and said anxiously, "Miss Meng, are you okay? I just heard a noise outside."

Meng Yin was stunned. Was the quarrel between her and Gu Ling so loud?

Shaking her head, she said, "It's nothing, we just had a fight."

Qiao Yi’s face turned pale instantly. They had a fight and everything was still okay?

But Meng Yin looked normal and was concentrating on writing, so she felt relieved.

After writing it, Meng Yin gave her the letter and said, "Qiao Yi, send it to Gu Huai tomorrow, and he will know what to do."

Qiao Yi hesitated: "Madam, do you really believe him?"

Meng Yin smiled awkwardly: "To be honest, I originally wanted to use him. Now that he is willing to help, I won't be polite."

The reason that made her feel at ease was actually that Gu Huai liked her, which surprised her.

She suddenly remembered that Gu Huai had been coughing when he was talking to her. Thinking about it, it was not so serious before. She said, "Qiao Yi, when you go tomorrow, check if there is anything wrong with Gu Huai. I wonder if he has a serious illness."

Qiao Yi was ashamed: "Miss Meng, you still care about him, why don't you go find Master Gu first, I'm afraid of him..."

Meng Yin curled her lips and said, "I'm afraid that Gu Huai will die suddenly and our plan will be exposed. As for Gu Ling - let him be angry, he is in good health anyway."

Qiao Yi nodded silently. It seemed that Miss Meng was determined to dampen Lord Gu's arrogance...

After Qiao Yi left, Meng Yin washed up and lay down on the bed, unable to fall asleep for a long time.

Was she going too far? It wasn't the first time she knew Gu Ling's character. In the past, they were very close and there was nothing wrong with it. But once she did something that made him unhappy, his true nature was immediately revealed.

"Forget it, let him think about it himself." Meng Yin closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
