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

Li Yang looked her over. Meng Yin sat there quietly, elegantly picking up the teacup and taking a sip.

"Miss Meng...what is your relationship with Mr. Gu?" Li Yang asked.

Meng Yin smiled faintly: "A few years ago, my family was broken up and he helped me."

Meng Yin lied without blushing or getting nervous. She was very good at lying. She thought that she was a mature actor.

Li Yang nodded: "Oh... Miss Meng, you should know why we came to see you, right?"

Meng Yin said, "Of course." She took out a note and said, "Tomorrow, Gu Ling will go to get the jade slip, and Gu Huai will lead people to ambush here and wait for Gu Ling to come back."

Li Yang took the note and squinted his eyes: "Is the news true?"

"It's true." Meng Yin said, "This is about whether Master Gu can take over the Soul Devouring Hall. No matter how many of our people are in the hall, we will have to call them all in. Gu Ling cannot be underestimated, and we must not hold back!"

He Xiaotian clapped his hands excitedly when he heard this: "Great! Great! Great! Finally I can get a big ticket!"

Meng Yin said: "Mr. Gu said that when the plan succeeds, you two will be the only two hall masters of the Soul Devouring Hall, and the other two will be eliminated."

Li Yang and He Xiaotian's eyes widened immediately, and they hurriedly said, "I will do my best."

Meng Yin looked at the sky and stood up: "It's getting late, we can meet here directly. In order not to arouse suspicion, I will go shopping first, you go back first."

After saying that, she walked outside, took a few steps and turned her head back: "Remember, you must do what Master Gu says."

The two of them bowed and said, "Sure."

After Meng Yin left, He Xiaotian said to Li Yang: "Just like before, wait for Gu Huai to take the position, and then we will take action!"

"Don't worry. He should be in good health after seeing him like that yesterday, but he's a little short of breath." Li Yang said, "Let's go back quickly and make arrangements."

In the study, Meng Yin immediately told Gu Ling what happened.

Meng Yin: "Gu Ling, didn't you see how they were fooled by me? My acting skills are really good. If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have learned to paint. Hahaha!"

Meng Yin: "Gu Huai did a good job. When you become the Palace Master, it will also be his contribution. Don't kill him."

Meng Yin: "Remember to tell the people below about tomorrow's event."

Meng Yin: "By the way, when will the Third and Fourth Halls come back? Do they have any problems?"

Gu Ling seemed to be listening to Meng Yin's chattering calmly, but in his heart he had already cut the three people she mentioned into pieces.

He held the pen tighter and tighter in his hand, and the words he wrote became sharper, as if they were about to turn into a knife.

Feeling annoyed, he still had to reply, so he put down his pen and said, "Okay, I get it."

Gu Ling turned sideways, looked at Meng Yin who was feeling smug, and reached out to pinch her chin.

"Ayin, don't you have anything else to say?"

Meng Yin tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "No more."

Gu Ling lowered his head, looking very lonely.

Meng Yin smiled, reached out and pinched his cheek, then kissed him.

Gu Ling was stunned for a moment, then he hugged her and fell on the couch.

In the evening, Meng Yin, Duan Yan and Qiao Yi were walking in the garden.

There were some shouting and cursing coming from the front. Meng Yin pricked up his ears and listened. It turned out to be He Xiaotian's voice.

She hurriedly pulled the two of them to the front, and after just a few steps, she saw a boy who was older than Duan Yan running over. He bent his arms to cover his face, as if he was crying.

"You damn boy! Even the chance I gave you was useless!" He Xiaotian cursed a few more times. He was extremely angry and walked away without even looking over here.

Meng Yin asked: "Who was that person just now?"

Duan Yan said, "That's Hall Master He's younger brother, He Xiaozhou." She stood on tiptoe to the two's ears, "He stole the bellyband of a girl in the palace before, but Master Gu was not here at the time, so the matter was suppressed by his brother."

Meng Yin thought thoughtfully: "No wonder he looks so wretched. We can't keep such a person."

Duan Yan and Qiao Yi both agreed.

Late at night, according to the instructions Lu Yun had brought in advance, Third Hall Master Zhang Zhuzhuang and Fourth Hall Master Mei Ziqiu did not bring their men back to the Soul Devouring Hall, but instead arranged them on the outskirts of the city and went to Gu Ling's study overnight.

In the study, Gu Ling held Meng Yin in his arms and was holding her hand while writing something.

Lu Yun knocked on the door and said, "Master Gu, the Third and Fourth Hall Masters want to see you."

"Enter."

Both husband and wife are under 35, but Zhang Zhuzhuang has a beard and looks older, while Mei Ziqiu is particularly dignified. They have a daughter and work diligently.

Zhang Zhuzhuang said, "Master Gu, we have already arranged the people and explored the way to get the jade slip."

Gu Ling nodded: "Okay." He picked up a letter from the table, "It was sent by Pei Xuanxi, saying that there is a mechanism in the Jueqing Tower."

Meng Yin quickly took it and looked at it for a few seconds, then said, "Then you must be careful."

Gu Ling chuckled and said, "It's okay. When things are over tomorrow, the Third and Fourth Halls, as well as Duan Ran, will bring a small team with me."

The two people below bowed: "Yes!"

"Go down."

After the two left, Meng Yin hurriedly said, "Pei Xuanxi and the others have probably already gone to get it. It will take some time for the letter to be delivered."

"Yes. It's not a big problem." Gu Ling said.

Meng Yin knew Pei Xuanxi's abilities, and since Xu Zheng herself had martial arts skills, she thought nothing would happen, but she still felt inexplicably uneasy.

"It's time to rest, Ayin." Gu Ling said, picking her up by the waist.

Meng Yin nodded and decided to write them a letter tomorrow to ask about the situation.

-

The next morning, Gu Ling ordered the Third Hall, the Fourth Hall and Duan Ran to go with him to get the jade slip.

Meng Yin sat nearby and watched the reactions of the people below.

Li Yang and He Xiaotian were no longer sitting upright as before. One of them had his arms folded and the other had his eyes half closed.

"These two idiots just like to watch you go from hope to despair." Meng Yin said coldly in his heart.

After Gu Ling finished giving his instructions, the two were the first to leave, almost showing their dissatisfaction with Gu Ling on their faces.

Meng Yin stared at their backs, not noticing that her eyes were cold.

"Ayin, what's wrong?" Gu Ling asked.

Meng Yin came back to her senses and smiled, "It's okay, I'm just looking forward to the good show tonight."

Gu Ling said: "We will set up an ambush in advance this afternoon. Ayin, you will come with me."

Meng Yin nodded and said seriously, "Okay."

In the afternoon, Meng Yin specially found the two people.

She nervously pulled the two of them behind the rockery, her anxiety obvious on her face.

"We will go there this afternoon and will probably be back in the evening. You can bring people there in the evening and Gu Huai will be waiting for you there."

Li Yang thought for a moment and asked, "Ms. Meng, will you still be with Gu Ling by then?"

Meng Yin said firmly, "Yes, if I have a chance to kill him, I will do it."

The two were speechless for a moment. They didn't expect that such a petite woman would be so bold as to talk about killing people.

Meng Yin asked: "How many people do you have under you? Do all the First and Second Halls listen to you?"

He Xiaotian said: "Of course, if you don't listen to us, will you listen to that brat?"

Meng Yin clenched her fists, anger rising in her heart. She felt that if she had a knife in her hand, she would stab it into the heart of this idiot without hesitation and pound it a few times.

The reason for this anger was undoubtedly because of his arrogant attitude and disdain for Gu Ling.

"That's good." She said lightly, but in her heart she was thinking about asking Gu Ling to give him a poisonous insect to try in the evening. The kind that could burrow holes she saw last time was pretty good.
