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

The scent of agarwood floating in the room, mixed with a faint smell of medicine, lingered at her nose. Feeling the warm touch on her forehead, Tao Tao slowly opened her eyes.

"A Qing?" Tao Tao murmured. When she saw the face of the person in front of her clearly, she suddenly woke up, sat up, supported herself with both hands and stepped back. She let out a soft cry because of the wound on her back.

Her words naturally fell into Yi An's ears. His face darkened for a moment, but when he saw her pulling the wound, he put away his displeasure and said, "A Tao, the wound on your back has not healed yet, be careful."

Tao Tao frowned and kept moving her hands and feet backwards. There was a clinking sound, and the touch of iron and the restraints on her wrists and ankles made her pause.

Tao Tao raised her hand, and a chain was put on her wrist, which fit her very well. There was a keyhole on the top, and the chain jingled below, all the way to the head of the bed. The same was true for her feet.

Tao Tao's pupils shrank into a small dot, and she looked at Yi An with disbelief and horror.

"What on earth are you doing?!" she roared.

Yi An smiled, reached out and grabbed her arm, and comforted her: "A Tao, don't be afraid, I'm just worried that you will run away. As long as you behave and stay by my side, I will untie you."

He reached out and pinched a strand of Tao Tao's curly hair and played with it in his hand, smiling: "You don't like it, I know. But I'm afraid you insist on leaving me, so I can only prepare this thing in advance."

Tao Tao pushed him away violently, and felt a pain in her back again. Her eyes turned red with pain, fear and anger.

Yi An held her shoulders with both hands and said gently, "A Tao, you still have injuries on your back. Be careful. I will help you apply medicine."

Tao Tao cried and cursed: "Are you crazy? Why did you do this? Do you hate me or Yi Qing?"

"Hate?" Yi An said as if he heard a joke, "A Tao, how could I hate you? You are the person I love most in my life. As for Yi Qing, I do hate him, but that has nothing to do with you. No, that's not right, it does have something to do with you. I hate why you like him, but I won't blame you."

Tao Tao was shocked by what he said, her eyes widened several inches, her shoulders trembled, and tears flowed down her jade-like face.

"You...you lunatic." Tao Tao said, grabbing his clothes with both hands, "Where did you take me? What do I want you to let me go..."

Yi An laughed and said, "Let you go? And then watch you and Yi Qing together?"

His eyes became fierce, and his words seemed to burst out from between his teeth: "Impossible, Tao, you can only be tied to me for the rest of your life."

Tao Tao was irritated by his words and got off the bed regardless of her wounds. She was then caught by the chains and fell to the ground.

Yi An hurried to help her up, and asked distressedly: "A Tao, does it hurt?"

Tao Tao desperately slapped and pushed him, shouting, "Go away! Don't touch me! You lunatic... Where did you lock me up... I want to go back... I..."

Yi An grabbed her wrists at once. Tao Tao's eyes were blurred by tears. She found that her clothes had been changed while she was sobbing. Her heart sank to the bottom of the valley. She said blankly: "Who changed my clothes?"

Yi An let her go and said, "A Tao, calm down, this is——"

Tao Tao was already mentally broken, and before he could finish, she slapped him in the face. Yi An turned his head away, and his hair hanging in front of him flew up and down. He froze for a moment, and suddenly snorted and laughed.

Tao Tao hugged her shoulders with her hands and stared at him.

Yi An turned his head and said with a smile: "A Tao, I don't care how you hit me, as long as you are by my side."

Tao Tao cursed: "Even if you lock me up until I die, I will never fall in love with you! You... bastard!"

After hearing this, Yi An laughed even more happily. He picked her up and put her on the bed. Ignoring Tao Tao's screams, he said, "Okay, then we can die together. This way, we can still be together in the next life."

Tao Tao's fear was replaced by anger. She glanced at Yi An's body and tried to kick him, but he grabbed her ankle instead.

Yi An understood her thoughts, raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile: "A Tao, you really know how to choose a place."

He lifted Tao Tao's legs and said, "This thing is really uncomfortable to wear, Tao, as long as you stay by my side, I will take it off."

After that, he put down his hand and said, "I didn't change your clothes. The wound on your back still needs medicine."

Tao Tao bit her lip, sobbed silently, and didn't even look at him.

Yi An was not angry either. He reached out his hand to wipe her tears. Someone knocked on the door. He took a look and said to Tao Tao, "I'll go take care of things and come to see you later."

Seeing that he was about to leave, Tao Tao stood up and grabbed his sleeve, shouting, "What are you going to do? Let me go!"

Yi An smiled, held her hand, and answered irrelevantly: "A Tao, someone will come to apply medicine to you in a while."

After saying that, he left the room and closed the door. It was not dark in the room, but Tao Tao was extremely frightened. She could only huddle beside the bed, burying her head in her arms and crying.

No, I can’t cry! Tao Tao wiped her tears fiercely and warned herself in her heart.

Xiaoman should have taken Ashuo back. Now that they know she has been captured, they will definitely look for her. She can't just be afraid and wait for them to rescue her.

Maybe there is something here that can help her. Tao Tao thought, looking around. The house was very clean. She was in the inner room now, chained, and couldn't go to the outer room at all.

Tao Tao looked at the window next to the dressing table, which was not closed. She got out of bed, and the chain ended just in front of the window, and no matter how hard she pulled, it would not budge.

There was a bamboo forest outside the window! Tao Tao's eyes widened instantly. This meant that they were no longer in the city. Where could they be? Outside the city? How could she pass the news to them? At least she had to let them know that she was still safe.

Tao Tao suddenly thought of the whistle. She looked at her body and found that the clothes she had originally worn had been changed. She was now wearing an apricot pink jacket and skirt made of fine fabric. The whistle was naturally not there.

"What should I do..." Tao Tao sat on the stool, at a loss for a moment.

Now calm, Tao Tao began to analyze the situation. With her strength, she couldn't open the chain. Maybe she could try to get the key, or go along with him and let him unlock it first.

Whenever she thought, she habitually touched her fingers with her teeth. This action reminded her of when she was in Ziyang City, in order to deceive Yi An, she temporarily lived in his house. Every time she read a book, she would do this unconsciously. It was not until Yi Qing saw it and asked her proudly if she was a child that she changed this habit.

Thinking of Yiqing, Tao Tao's nose felt sore and tears were about to fall again: "Ah Qing..."

The door was opened, Tao Tao thought it was Yi An and did not turn around.

"Girl, are you okay?" Xun Tao asked tentatively while holding the ointment.

Tao Tao turned around slowly, and their eyes met. The moment they saw each other's faces clearly, the air seemed to freeze.

Same curly hair, same round and bright eyes, same fair skin, even the difference in chin is very slight, Tao Tao still looks a bit childish. If you look closely, Xun Tao's eyes are slightly upturned, while Tao Tao has standard almond eyes, which look like a surprised cat when they are wide open.

The two are really too similar, yet there are some differences between them. People who are familiar with them will be able to tell them apart quickly.

Wen Xin put down her things and walked over. The moment she saw Tao Tao, she exclaimed, "Sister Xun Tao..."

Xun Tao came back to his senses, smiled, and said to Wen Xin: "Bring the things and apply medicine to the girl."

Tao Tao stood up and asked, "Who are you?"

Xun Tao smiled at her and said, "I am Master Yi An's maid."

Tao Tao looked at her in disbelief. She had never expected that there could be two people in the world who had never met each other but looked so similar. If she hadn't looked carefully, she would almost have thought that this girl was herself in this world.

Xun Tao's heart was uneasy. When Tao Tao was brought here, she was still unconscious and she did not look at her face carefully. But now when she saw her, she immediately understood that Tao Tao was the person in Yi An's heart, that is, the person she looked like.

She still had a smile on her face and said, "Girl, how should I call you?"

Tao Tao said: "My name is... Tao Tao."

Xuntao and Wenxin's expressions froze, and Xuntao almost couldn't hold his things steadily.

It turns out that this is the meaning of her name.
