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

Qiao Yi was already immune to his throwing tantrums and looked ahead without saying a word. When he saw the four men leaving, he slowly followed them.

Fu Nian jumped around beside her, his shoulder-length hair brushing his face and then flying behind him. With his flamboyant smile, he looked very high-spirited.

Qiao Yi said helplessly: "You can play with it yourself, okay?"

Fu Nian blinked, pretending to be serious, touching his chin and approaching her: "Miss Qiao Yi, why do you speak like that? I'm about the same age as you, maybe even older! It's as if I'm a child."

Qiao Yi glanced at him, thinking that he had been pestering her for a whole night and was still enjoying it, she felt a little bit reluctant.

She asked, "When was your birthday?"

Fu Nian immediately became excited and pointed with two fingers: "February, I'm twenty this year."

Qiao Yi nodded and said, "I was born in June. You are indeed older than me."

Fu Nian thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed. Qiao Yi looked at him in confusion. Fu Nian approached her, put the paper lantern in her hand, and said with a smile: "If that's the case, you have to call me brother. It's only natural for a brother to give something to his sister, so just keep it."

Qiao Yi frowned and saw the slight blush under his eyes through the paper lantern. He immediately became angry and felt that he was just making fun of him.

With a bang, Qiao Yi threw the paper lantern at him, and her voice became louder: "Who is your sister? Boring!"

After he finished speaking, Qiao Yi stepped on him again and flew away.

Fu Nian was a little confused. He looked at the paper lantern on the ground, then looked at her angry back, and didn't know what to do.

“Hahahahaha!” A crazy laugh sounded behind him. Ah Shuo walked over and said, “You hit a wall! I told you to disturb others and let them call you brother. You got beaten, didn’t you?”

Fu Nian looked over and saw that it was his old rival Ah Shuo, and his face suddenly fell.

"I want you to take care of it?"

Ah Shuo shook his finger and said, "Why are you still the same as you were a few years ago?"

Fu Nian crossed his arms in front of him, tapping the ground with his heels from time to time, and said indifferently: "At least she is willing to be angry with me. I'm afraid you didn't say a word to the girl, right?"

Ah Shuo ignored his ridicule and said, "Tsk, you are so childish, others will just treat you as a younger brother."

Fu Nian immediately said: "My brother is better than a stranger like you!"

Ah Shuo walked forward and said, "Stop, I don't have any other thoughts about Miss Qiao Yi, but others may not be the same~"

Fu Nian chased after him: "Who?"

Ah Shuo took a step to the side: "I won't tell you."

Fu Nian stopped, slowly moved his hand towards the hilt of the sword, and suddenly rushed towards him: "If you don't tell me, I will pry your mouth open!"

Ah Shuo immediately drew his sword to block it, gritting his teeth and saying, "Don't think I'm afraid of you just because you're the best sword master in the world!"

Fu Nian rushed forward again: "Let's talk about it after you win! You were defeated by me a few years ago!"

"Get lost! I don't know who was playing dirty tricks at that time!"

There was a flash of swords and sabers, and everyone around hid far away.

Seeing Fu Nian rushing up again, Ah Shuo raised his sword, but Fu Nian suddenly stopped and said with a grin, "Who wants to play with you? I'll go ask Miss Qiao Yi. You, you'll be single for the rest of your life! Hahahahaha!"

After saying that, he left like the wind. Ah Shuo was so angry that he hurriedly chased after him and yelled, "If you have the guts, keep going!"

Ah Yan watched the two men fighting not far away, his eyes twitching slightly.

On the way back home, Xu Zheng said goodbye to the three of them and she was going to look for Pei Xuanxi.

After asking a few people, I found Pei Mansion easily.

The door was closed tightly. Xu Zheng suddenly remembered that Pei Xuanxi had taught her the art of lightness kung fu. After a moment's thought, she suddenly ran towards the wall, kicked the wall lightly with her toes, and flew up as expected.

"Oh my god, I'm really good at Qinggong!" Xu Zheng said in surprise, looked around and shouted: "Pei Xuanxi!"

No one answered her. The yard was silent, and even the servants were few and far between.

A servant heard her voice and hurried forward to ask, "Madam, you just..."

Xu Zheng said: "Oh, I just flew in. I didn't expect you knew me."

The servant wiped his sweat, feeling lucky that nothing happened to her, and asked, "Don't you know her?"

Xu Zheng smiled, walked inside, and looked around: "Where is Pei Xuanxi?"

The servant said, "Madam, the owner of the building should be in the study."

Xu Zheng waved her hand: "Okay, go down, I'll go find him."

After the servant left, Xu Zheng continued to walk in, but she regretted it after only a few steps. The yard was too big, and she walked for a long time before she saw the house with lights on.

Xu Zheng was delighted and pushed the door open and went in.

"Pei Xuanxi!"

There was no response. Although the light was on in the room, no one was there.

"Hey, where is the person?" Xu Zheng frowned and went in to take a look. The study window was still open and there were pens and ink on the table. She thought Pei Xuanxi should be sitting on the couch.

Xu Zheng thought: "Could it be that he just happened to go out?"

After looking around again, she felt something was wrong, so she closed the door and left.

Outside the window, Pei Xuanxi clenched his hands tightly. Hearing the noise, he was about to stick his head out to take a look when the door was suddenly opened again.

Xu Zheng walked to the desk, picked up a pen and dipped it in ink, muttering to herself: "Write a few words to show that I've been here, haha!"

On the rice paper, she wrote a line of words: Xu Zheng was here. It was crooked and there was a smiley face behind it.

Satisfied, Xu Zheng clapped her hands and left the study.

After searching for a while, she still couldn't find anyone. Xu Zheng didn't think much about it and was about to leave when Ah Yan suddenly appeared in front of her and said, "Madam."

Xu Zheng couldn't help but ask, "Ah Yan, there was no sound at night. I got scared. Where is Pei Xuanxi?"

Ah Yan replied: "The host has gone out to take care of some things, so he asked me to stay with you to protect you."

Xu Zheng said dissatisfiedly: "Do I still need protection?"

Ah Yan pursed her lips and said, "The host told you... not to think too much and not to worry about him."

Xu Zheng walked out and said with a smile: "I don't think about anything, please ask Pei Xuanxi to find me when he is free."

Ah Yan nodded: "Yes."

Xu Zheng sighed inwardly. She had originally thought of trying to see if she would still have a headache when she saw Pei Xuanxi, but she didn't expect that he was not there.

But I think I will definitely see Pei Xuanxi on the way to Qinglong City tomorrow, so there is no need to rush.

After the two left, Pei Xuanxi climbed in through the study window, feeling a pang of sadness in his heart.

When Xu Zheng called him just now, he almost couldn't control himself and came out, but when he thought of Xu Zheng who was still holding on despite her splitting headache because of him, he just stood there and waited for her to leave.

There were words written by Xu Zheng on the desk, and Pei Xuanxi touched them lightly with his fingertips.

When A'yan came back, Pei Xuanxi didn't know how long he had been standing in the yard. He was wearing purple clothes and had silver hair, with his brows slightly furrowed. Under the moonlight, a faint soft light surrounded his body.

Ah Yan stepped forward and said, "Master, I'll send the lady back."

Pei Xuanxi nodded and just looked at the ground.

Ah Yan usually wouldn't ask too many questions, but he couldn't stand seeing the host like this, so he said bluntly: "Why...didn't you explain to Madam?"

Pei Xuanxi said: "A Zheng was holding back her headache without telling me because she didn't want me to worry about myself or to be separated from me. If I told her that we should stay away from each other for a while, she would definitely not agree."

Ah Yan said: "But what if Miss Xu finds out something is wrong..."

Pei Xuanxi sighed: "So try not to be too obvious. Just say I'm busy recently. Zheng probably won't think too much about it."

Ah Yan nodded. Even though he was a bit stupid, he understood. Neither of them wanted to worry about the other, and both wanted to handle it themselves.
