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

Towards evening, Tao Tao used the excuse of cooking for Yi An and secretly hid a small knife that was more handy in the kitchen.

She made some steamed buns and hid a few of them in her sleeves.

After dusk, the two sat together for dinner. Tao Tao saw him holding a steamed bun and was about to ask him something. She smiled and asked, "Is it delicious?"

Yi An nodded and praised sincerely: "It's delicious, but Tao, you don't have to do these things."

Tao Tao shrugged and said, "I am sometimes bored. So, are we going to live here forever?"

Yi An said: "Yes."

After hearing this, Tao Tao lowered her head silently.

Noticing that she looked strange, Yi An reached out and touched her cheek, and asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like it here?"

Tao Tao shook her head and said, "No, I like it very much, but we won't go anywhere else, right?"

Yi An picked up some food for her and said, "A Tao, I won't let you get bored. After we get married, we'll go sightseeing."

He said in a rare joking tone: "I have worked hard for more than ten years, and the money I earned is enough for us to live for several lifetimes. Wherever you want to go, we will go there."

Yi An said, reaching out and holding her hand, "But there is a premise, you can't leave me even a step."

Tao Tao pulled her hand away and said angrily, "Childish, I know."

She stood up, and Yi An followed suit. Tao Tao said, "Let's go out for a walk."

Yian took her hand and they went out of the yard together. Sure enough, the two guards at the door were not there!

Tao Tao looked up at the night sky. There was no moon and very few stars. She squinted her eyes, worried that it would rain tonight.

Just as she was thinking, Yi An pulled her arm and asked softly, "Are you cold?"

Tao Tao said: "It's not cold."

Yi An came close to her and put his arm around her shoulders. Tao Tao could feel the warmth from his palm.

Looking at the twinkling lights below, Yi An suddenly said, "A Tao, I always thought that I would never have love in this life."

He walked up to Tao Tao and said, "It was only after I met you that I realized that I also have feelings."

Tao Tao said: "Everyone has feelings, but their temperaments are different."

Yi An curved his eyebrows and nodded, "Yes, for someone as cold as me, meeting Ah Tao is destiny."

Tao Tao's eyes twitched and she cursed him in her heart for being sick. If he hadn't planned to have her kidnapped, how could there be any fate between them?

Seeing that Tao Tao said nothing, Yi An bowed his head and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tao Tao smiled and said, "It's okay, I was just thinking that you won't be lonely anymore, I'm here with you."

Yi An opened his eyes wide. Tao Tao actually showed some childish surprise when she saw his usually calm eyes.

Yi An said: "A Tao, you must keep your word."

Tao Tao turned around angrily and said, "Of course it counts!"

She pretended to be upset and said, "Forget it, no matter how many times I tell you, you won't believe it."

Yi An hugged her from behind and said apologetically, "It's my fault. I believe you."

Tao Tao lowered her eyes to glance at his bony hands, and a smile without any emotion appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She grabbed Yi An's fingers, but before she could say anything, she felt a sudden pain in her abdomen. Tao Tao screamed, thought to herself that something was wrong, and slowly bent down.

Yi An hurriedly asked: "A Tao, where do you feel uncomfortable?"

Tao Tao shook her head, her face turning pale.

Yi An took her hand and felt her pulse, frowning and said, "Nothing is wrong..." As soon as he finished speaking, his eyebrows raised, knowing why Tao Tao was in so much pain, "A Tao, are you having your period?"

Tao Tao had no choice but to nod, thinking hard about escaping at night.

She almost forgot the days these days and completely forgot about her period. Fortunately, although her physical condition is average, her period is not painful. It's just that it is a big obstacle for her to escape at night.

But she will be getting married to Yi An in two days, so she must leave tonight.

Tao Tao quickly made up her mind and looked up at Yi An and said, "My...my skirt is dirty. Do you have a menstrual belt for menstruation?"

Yi An glanced behind her, stretched out his arms and picked her up by the waist, and said, "Yes, I have prepared a lot."

He used his Qinggong skills to walk into the house in just a few steps. Tao Tao was leaning on the table, waiting for him to bring something.

When Yi An handed her the thing, his face actually blushed a little, which surprised Tao Tao. She thought Yi An knew a little about these and would not be embarrassed.

Yi An said, "A Tao, do you need to drink hot water, brown sugar water, or something like that? I've learned before that you need to apply something hot to your stomach, right?"

Tao Tao thought about it and decided that it would be a good idea to send him away, so she said, "Then go make a bowl of brown sugar water while I change my clothes."

Yi An moved very quickly, nodded and left. Tao Tao quickly changed into clean clothes, sat in front of the bed, and propped up her chin with her fingers.

Although she had her period, she could still proceed according to the original plan. She was just afraid that Yi An would have to stay with her because of her period. She had to find an excuse to let him go back to sleep, and then she would leave late at night!

Tao Tao was worried that her menstrual period would have an impact, so she packed a few menstrual belts into her bag.

I have to say that Yi An is really willing to do so. The cotton wool in the menstrual belt is of the best quality, so I think nothing will go wrong.

Tao Tao lay down on the bed and prayed that it wouldn't rain at night.

After a while, the door was pushed open and Yi An came in with brown sugar water. He put the things on the dressing table and carefully helped her up.

He reached out and stirred it a few times, pretending to feed Tao Tao, and she hurriedly said, "I'll do it myself."

Yi An looked at her body with concern and asked, "Does your stomach still hurt?"

Tao Tao shook her head and said, "It only hurts a little bit."

Yi An said gently: "I will accompany you tonight, go to sleep."

Expecting him to do this, Tao Tao huddled under the quilt and whispered, "No, there is a custom in my hometown that men cannot stay by a woman's side when she has her period."

Yi An asked, "Why?"

Tao Tao said: "I don't know either, but... we are getting married soon, so it's better to follow some customs, otherwise I'm afraid it will be unlucky."

Speaking of getting married, Yi An understood a little, so he said, "Okay, if you have anything to do at night, just blow the whistle and call me."

Tao Tao nodded gently and said, "Okay, go and have a rest."

Yi An reached out and touched her forehead, then tucked the quilt in for her before leaving.

Seeing him leave, Tao Tao lamented in her heart that as a doctor, she could come up with such a feudal and superstitious reason.

When the door closed, Tao Tao suddenly realized that he had not locked it.

She rolled her eyes and realized the reason why Yi An did this. He was simply afraid that she would call him for something at night and he would need to show up in time, so he simply left the door unlocked.

Despite this, Tao Tao still decided to climb out the window so that he could go directly to the back mountain from behind.

After Yian returned to his room, he did not rest, but instead looked up the relevant medical books to find out what women need to do when they have their period.

He read until late at night and even copied down quite a few things. Yi An rubbed his brows and thought about going to see Tao Tao again.

Tao Tao had just climbed over the window and ran quickly towards the back mountain.

When she reached the back mountain, she looked back and found that the light in Yi'an's room was not turned off. She immediately felt something was wrong. He was not asleep!

Tao Tao had already come out, so he had to quicken his pace.

Yi An stood up and walked to Tao Tao's door. He was worried that she was asleep and it would be bad to disturb her. So he decided to go to the kitchen to practice and make her some nourishing food tomorrow.

He was tinkering in the kitchen late at night, and his body and face were covered with dust, which made him feel more down-to-earth.

On the other side, Tao Tao was running quickly on the rugged mountain road with the faint light.

Suddenly, a drop of rain hit her face. Tao Tao looked up and saw dark clouds rolling in the sky. She thought it was going to rain, so she didn't dare to stop. By then, the road would be even darker and it would be even more difficult to walk on the mountain road.

It was extremely quiet all around. Gradually, there was a smell of dust stirred up in the air. The occasional wind blew by, reminding Tao Tao of that night in the bamboo forest.

Now, she must not make the same mistake again and must escape!

With this thought in mind, Tao Tao ran in the darkness and was almost tripped by a stone. She didn't even dare to look back, for fear that if she turned around, she would see Yi An wearing a white robe, smiling sinisterly at her struggle.
