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

"Oh, so how many days does it take to get from Zhaoding City to Ziyang City?" Xia Nian asked.

Xiahou Yu said: "Both the waterway and the road take half a day."

He raised his eyes: "Miss Xia, are you going to Ziyang City?"

Xia Nian smiled and said, "We sisters love traveling and are planning to go to Ziyang City for some fun."

Xiahou Yu was silent for a moment, frowning slightly.

Xia Nian saw it and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xiahou Yu gently grabbed her arm and said, "Ziyang City is not safe recently, you'd better not go there."

"Unsafe?" Xia Nian put away his smile, "Do you know what happened?"

Xiahou Yu nodded. He had received news a few days ago that a major murder had occurred in Ziyang City. He was supposed to go there a few days ago, but was delayed because of the Lin family's affairs.

He was originally worried about how long he would be gone, and now Xia Nian and the others were going too, so what...

Xiahou Yu was secretly delighted, but he still looked serious on the surface: "For your safety, why don't you come with me."

Xia Nian was a little surprised. She already had this idea, but she didn't expect Xia Hou Yu to say it out loud himself.

"Will it be too much trouble for you..." Xia Nian hesitated.

Xiahou Yu shook his head: "No, just bring your clothes."

Xia Nian curved her eyebrows and said, "Thank you, Master Xiahou. When are we leaving?"

Xiahou Yu stood up: "I will let Xiao Xian inform you."

Xia Nian stood up and said, "Okay."

-

Xiahou Yu sent Xia Nian back to the store and asked her to wait for notification.

Xu Zheng brought the food to the customer, ran forward and took Xia Nian's arm: "How is it?"

Xia Nian smiled and said, "Let's go to Ziyang City with Master Xiahou."

Xu Zheng almost jumped up three feet high: "Great! I can travel without paying for it myself!"

Xia Nian said helplessly: "A Zheng, we are just going with Master Xiahou, we are not letting him arrange everything for us."

Xu Zheng leaned on the counter in frustration: "Ah... okay."

"Let's arrange things in the store first, and then we'll go back and pack some things." Tao Tao put down his pen and said.

"Why hasn't Yinyin come back yet? She would definitely be very excited if she heard it." Xu Zheng said.

"Yes, she loves traveling the most, but our mission is not to travel." Xia Nian said, and saw Meng Yin running in from outside.

Xu Zheng ran up and told her that Xiahou Yu was taking them to Ziyang City.

Meng Yin was not as happy as she had imagined. She stepped forward and said, "I hope we won't encounter any danger this time. I just went to inquire and heard that a major murder case had occurred in Ziyang City recently."

"What!?" the three asked in surprise.

Xia Nian frowned: "No wonder Xia Houyu said it's a bit dangerous to go to Ziyang City now."

She suddenly thought of something and said, "Could it be that Pei Xuanxi went to Ziyang City because of this matter? And Gu Huai and Yi An."

"It's very likely." Meng Yin nodded.

Everyone fell into deep thought for a moment. What kind of murder case could it be that even Xiahou Yu and his companions had to go there in person?

"Could it be someone's doing?" Tao Tao touched his head.

"It's possible. Anyway, we have to keep an eye on them when we go to Ziyang City this time!" Xia Nian said.

"Okay!" The three nodded.

In the afternoon, they arranged the affairs in the store, told Tan Xiang and Xiao He what they should pay attention to, and then returned to the yard to pack up.

Ye Man looked at Xu Zheng's back, with reluctance in his eyes.

Not long after, Xiao Xian came to their door and told them that a carriage would come to pick them up tomorrow morning.

Meng Yin prepared her camera, which she had to bring with her.

Tao Tao packed up her things and ran out to find Yiqing.

Meng Yin looked at Tao Tao's back and said in amazement: "This is the first time Tao Zi has been so proactive towards a man. Could she be in love with Yi Qing?"

Xu Zheng shook her head: "No way, Taozi has always been evasive about relationships between men and women."

Meng Yin stroked his chin and said with a smile, "What if Taozi finally gets wise?"

Xia Nian stepped forward and tapped her head: "Don't do that. If you fall in love here, what will you do when you go back?"

Meng Yin grabbed her neck and said, "Nian Nian, don't be so harsh. Life is short, enjoy it while you can!"

Xia Nian looked at her helplessly: "Relationships are very painful."

Meng Yin stuck out her tongue and ran to her room to get something.

Xia Nian looked at her back and sighed. What she was most worried about was Meng Yin. She was the kind of person who cared more about the process than the result. Once she fell in love with someone, she would go all out. She felt more at ease about Tao Tao and Xu Zheng.

Xu Zheng walked up to Xia Nian and said, "So, Nian Nian, have you ever liked someone before?"

"No." Xia Nian answered simply.

"Then how can you be sure that you won't fall in love with someone else here?" Xu Zheng asked curiously.

Xia Nian raised her head and said calmly: "I will try my best to control my feelings. I don't want to fall in love with anyone except you."

Xu Zheng hugged Xia Nian: "That's right, we sisters are together, why do we need a man? Hahaha!"

-

Tao Tao went to see Yiqing mainly to borrow some books to read on the road.

"Ahem..." Yi Qing coughed twice, "It's so thick, it's not convenient to bring it back, why don't you come to your house to have a look."

Tao Tao smiled and said, "We are going to Ziyang City tomorrow, so it may take some time for us to come back."

Yi Qing was stunned: "What? Why do we have to go to Ziyang City?"

Tao Tao looked at him and said, "Because... we like traveling, so we wanted to go for a walk, and it just so happened that Master Xiahou's carriage took us."

Yiqing relaxed a little. With Xiahou Yu leading them, nothing serious should happen.

"Are you leaving tomorrow?" Yiqing asked.

Tao Tao nodded: "Yes."

Yiqing turned sideways and supported the bookshelf with both hands: "What would you do if I said I was going?"

Tao Tao didn't quite understand what he meant. Could she still influence his thoughts?

"Well... I'll ask you to be careful on the road." Tao Tao thought for a while and said.

"What if I say I want to go with you?" Yi Qing asked again, watching the expression on Tao Tao's face out of the corner of his eye.

"Ah, we should tell this to Master Xiahou. After all, we are riding in his carriage." Tao Tao scratched her cheek and looked at him with a smile.

"That's all I want. I won't break it for you!"

Yi Qing was angry about what she had just said, and glanced at the book in her arms with a faint expression, "This is for you."

Tao Tao shook her head: "This is not good, these books look quite old." These are antiques.

Yiqing turned around and said, "If you come back I'll throw it away."

"..." Tao Tao was embarrassed. What happened to him?

Yiqing strode towards the door, while Tao Tao was still standing there thinking about what he had just said.

As soon as he stepped over the threshold, Yiqing turned his head to look at her. Tao Tao followed him and saw him turn around. She looked at him with her round eyes, looking very innocent.

Yiqing glanced at her slender wrist. The dust from the medical book had gotten onto her skirt.

Yiqing made a somewhat irritable sound, then turned around, walked to Tao Tao, and took the book from her hand.

Medical books are quite thick and a bit heavy.

"What...what's wrong?" Tao Tao spoke much softer when she saw that he looked unhappy.

Yiqing shook his head, and after walking out of the study, he threw the book directly to A Shuo.

"Send Miss Tao back." Yiqing said.

Although Ah Shuo was used to his young master's moody personality, he still bravely asked, "Young master, where are you going? Do you need someone to follow you?"

Yi Qingfei flew to the roof and left a sentence: "No need! I'm going to find Xia Houyu."

When Tao Tao walked out of the room, he was gone and she only heard those words.

She was a little puzzled—why did Yiqing want to see Master Xiahou?
