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

"What?" Xia Nian's eyes widened. "This is your house, shouldn't we go after him?"

Xiahou Yu shook his head and explained patiently: "Because the fish took the bait on its own."

Xia Nian didn't understand yet, but suddenly realized that it was the yard where they rested! She pushed Xia Houyu away and quickly ran towards their room.

"A Zheng! A Zheng!" Xia Nian pushed the door open directly. Xu Zheng was lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, not affected at all.

Xia Nian breathed a sigh of relief, covered her with a quilt and ran to Tao Tao's room.

Tao Tao was reading a medical book and didn't know what was going on.

After listening to Xia Nian's words, the two went to Meng Yin's room together.

"Yin Yin!" The two of them pushed the door open with a bang.

"Oh my god, I'm so scared, what happened?" Meng Yin rubbed her chest, she was almost scared to death by them.

"Nothing happened to you, right?" Tao Tao asked.

Meng Yin smiled and said, "What could possibly happen to me? Why are you still awake so late? What happened?"

"Can I come in?" Xiahou Yu's voice sounded outside.

Meng Yin shouted, "Come in, Brother Xiahou."

"What's the matter?" She asked when she saw Xia Nian's nervous expression.

"Just now we saw a figure running across the roof of our yard." Xia Nian said.

"What!?" Meng Yin screamed, "Did you catch him?"

"No." Xiahou Yu shook his head, his lips curled slightly, "I didn't expect that he would come to me on his own."

Xia Nian frowned and said, "What do you mean? Didn't I just let him run away?"

Xia Houyu looked at her and said, "Miss Xia, just like what you said last time, there is more than one murderer."

Xia Nian's eyebrows jumped: "So you want to..."

"Cast a long line to catch a big fish!" Meng Yin said immediately.

"That's right, but he definitely wouldn't come here for nothing." Xia Houyu looked around, "I smelled it when I came in just now, cartilage powder."

"What? I was poisoned again?" Meng Yin held his head and cried out in pain, "Why is it always me!"

"Don't worry, Miss Meng. This thing is not very powerful. It will only cause pain in some parts of the body of the person who smokes it." Xiahou Yu said.

"What? Then let's get out quickly, otherwise what if you get caught too?" Meng Yin stood up and grabbed Tao Tao and Xia Nian with both hands.

"The poison has already been consumed by Miss Meng."

"..."

"Why did he want to harm Yinyin?" Xia Nian patted her back soothingly, "Master Xiahou, do you know who he is?"

"We can't be sure now, but I guess he will show his hand tomorrow." Xiahou Yu said, with a hint of viciousness in his eyes.

"Then does Yinyin need to take any medicine?" Tao Tao said worriedly.

Xiahou Yu took out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Meng Yin: "Just take one, but I hope that Miss Meng will pretend to be in pain tomorrow."

Meng Yin swallowed the medicine, waved her hands, and said resignedly, "I understand, I understand. You can see my acting skills tomorrow."

Xiahou Yu nodded and looked up at the tiles on the roof.

There were indeed signs of being moved. The opponent's fighting power was not low. Meng Yin was not a martial artist, so it was normal that he could not hear anything.

"Yinyin, sleep with me tonight." Tao Tao shook her arm.

Meng Yin said carelessly: "Don't be afraid, Taozi, if he wants to kill me, just wait another eight hundred years!"

"That person must want to do something to Yinyin, or use her. Yinyin should be in no danger now." Xia Nian thought for a while and said.

"Yes, let's see tomorrow who has been doing this for so long." Xiahou Yu said.

-

Xiao Xian came back from outside and just saw Xia Hou Yu walking out of the courtyard of Xia Nian and others.

He ran forward and said, "Lord Xiahou, Lu Yun said that Master Gu succeeded."

"Okay." Xiahou Yu nodded.

Xiao Xian looked at Xiahou Yu's back and fell into deep thought.

Why did he go to Miss Xia's courtyard in the middle of the night? He was probably going to look for Miss Xia...

Xiao Xianwei raised his head and looked at Xia Nian's closed door, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

The next day—

Xia Nian looked at the skirt that she had hung all night. When she opened it last night, there was not a single crease on it, which was enough to show how expensive the fabric Xia Hou Yu bought was.

She thought about it and decided not to wear it. She also didn't wear the hairpin because of its unique meaning. In the end, Xia Nian only wore earrings.

Xia Nian went to find Meng Yin as soon as possible.

After knocking a few times but she didn't answer, Xia Nian quickly opened the door and found Meng Yin lying on the bed and snoring, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Tao Tao just woke up. She walked forward and asked worriedly, "Is Yinyin okay?"

Xia Nian shook her head, "It's okay, she's sleeping soundly."

"That's good." Tao Tao nodded.

During the meal, the three told Xu Zheng what happened last night.

"Okay, you finally showed your true colors, didn't you?" Xu Zheng unclenched his fists, "I'm going to do it this time, don't stop me."

The three of them looked at each other and nodded in tacit understanding.

Because they were eating in the yard, the light was scattered down, and the decoration on Xia Nian's ear flashed.

Meng Yin saw it immediately, and she moved closer to Xia Nian: "Hey, I remember you don't have this earring, Nian Nian?"

Xia Nian did not hide it: "It was given by Master Xiahou."

"Oh my god, this looks really expensive!" Meng Yin exclaimed, "Xiahou Yu must like you, Nian Nian, what do you think of him?"

Xia Nian held the rice bowl and shook his head: "I don't have any thoughts. I accepted the things to show that I accepted his gratitude, not anything else."

When she thought of Xiahou Yu's appearance last night, she couldn't help but feel ashamed, as if she would have committed a serious sin if she didn't accept it.

"Alas, another innocent boy is going to be humiliated by Nian Nian." Xu Zheng sighed.

Tao Tao took a bite of the bun and said, "Nian Nian, if Master Xiahou expressed his feelings to you, would you agree?"

Xia Nian put down his bowl and chopsticks and said in a deep voice: "That's what I'm worried about. If we agree, it will not be good for both of us. We will have to go back eventually. If we don't agree, our relationship with him will deteriorate. How can we prevent them from splitting up then?"

The three of them fell silent. Xia Nian’s goal was very clear. They were not from this world and would have to go back sooner or later. Did they have to experience a cross-time and space love before going back?

"Niannian, you are right." Tao Tao nodded.

Meng Yin bit a piece of steamed bun sadly: "Ah..." Her eyes suddenly lit up, "If, I mean if, he can go back with us, Nian Nian, will you agree to him?"

Xia Nian glanced at her and said calmly, "I don't believe a man would give up his power and status for a woman."

"That's true..." Meng Yin nodded in agreement.

"Okay, okay, what's there to talk about relationships? You might as well just eat meat and drink drinks with me!" Xu Zheng shouted.

"Haha, A Zheng is right!" Meng Yin laughed, and immediately put aside her previous worries.

-

Until the evening, the person who drugged Meng Yin had not made any movement.

At this time, Yiqing also came to Xiahou Yu's mansion. Everyone sat in the lobby and watched four girls play mahjong.

"Hey, it's a bummer!" Meng Yin shouted, picking up the note excitedly, "Zheng, your face is going to be covered with them!"

Xu Zheng said unconvincedly: "I give in. What a shitty luck I have tonight!" She had the most notes on her face, followed by Tao Tao, and Xia Nian and Meng Yin had the least.

"Haha, luck is also part of strength!" Meng Yin said proudly, touching the cards with both hands.

Yiqing and Xiahou Yu were both infected by them and stood behind them watching how they played.

Suddenly, they heard footsteps outside at the same time. Xiahou Yu glanced at Xiao Xian, who immediately understood and hid in the cabinet behind.

With a bang, the door was pushed open forcefully. Several people looked towards the door and saw that the person who came in was He Fu.

He was breathing heavily and looked very anxious.

"Brother He, what's wrong?" Xiahou Yu raised his eyebrows and asked.

"Brother Xiahou! Brother Yi! Another murder has occurred in the west of the city!" he shouted.
