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

After returning to Xiahou Mansion, Xiahou Yu immediately asked the maid to prepare hot water.

Xia Nian was put on the couch by Xia Hou Yu. Her clothes were dry but a little dirty.

Xiahou Yu looked at her carefully, and seeing that she was really fine, he finally put his mind at ease.

"Miss Xia...are you feeling unwell somewhere?" He sat down next to Xia Nian and asked.

Xia Nian shook her head. She lay flat on her back with her hands folded on her belly, looking very pitiful.

Xiahou Yu felt a pain in his heart, and he put his arms around her body and supported himself on the couch, hugging her.

"It's my fault for not arranging someone to protect you in advance." He felt very guilty.

Xia Nian shook his head: "It's not your fault. We didn't expect such a big thing to happen."

She paused, "The bridge was blown up this time. Someone did it on purpose, right?"

Xiahou Yu nodded: "That's right." But he himself couldn't understand why blowing up the bridge would not delay their time, but would anger them instead.

What was the purpose of that person doing this?

Seeing his frown, Xia Nian expressed her thoughts: "Do you think they blew up the bridge to protest against you, or to delay time?"

Xiahou Yu admired her quick thinking in his heart and said softly: "The possibility of a demonstration may be greater. If we want to delay time, we should start with ourselves."

Xia Nian took over the conversation: "But they chose to attack the people around you."

Xiahou Yu's eyes flashed slightly, he looked at Xia Nian, and immediately understood her thoughts.

What Xia Nian meant was that someone knew that there were four of them around them, and whether it was for demonstration or to delay time, it would be much easier to attack the four girls than to attack them personally.

A person suddenly flashed through Xiahou Yu's mind, but he quickly denied it.

His aunt didn't know about the existence of Xia Nian and the others.

Xiahou Yu's murderous intent became even stronger. He held Xia Nian's hand and said, "Don't worry, I will protect you."

Xia Nian rarely pulled her hand away. She nodded: "Can we come to your meeting later?"

Xia Houyu nodded: "Of course, I won't hide anything from you."

Xia Nian looked at him gratefully, remembering the scene when Xia Houyu saw him in trouble.

He was so anxious that Xia Nian's heart was moved.

-

After looking at the door of the bright room, Gu Ling and Xia Houyu looked at each other and left the yard.

They came to the front yard hall where several people were sitting inside.

Except Yiqing and Tao Tao, everyone else is here.

Lin Yue was arranged to stay in the side yard and had gone down to rest.

Xiahou Yu stepped forward and ordered someone to serve tea.

He sat on the chair and told a few people Xia Nian's guess.

Pei Xuanxi frowned: "There is no private matter between the four of us in the martial arts world. If their goal is really to use A Zheng and the other four to suppress us, then this person must know that A Zheng and the other four have a good relationship with us."

It means that the crime was committed by an acquaintance.

Xiahou Yu nodded, and Gu Ling also agreed with this statement.

The three of them thought of one person at the same time.

"Could it be... Yi'an?" Pei Xuanxi expressed his thoughts.

Xu Zheng didn't quite understand: "But he saved Taozi and got hurt."

Pei Xuanxi lowered his eyes. This was what they didn't understand. Yi'an would never let himself get involved in any scheme, and he saved Tao Tao and got injured. This was really not like his style.

"Is there a traitor?" Xu Zheng touched his chin and analyzed seriously.

The three of them looked at her and thought that this guess was possible.

On the other side, in the room——

Xia Nianzheng and Meng Yin are taking a bath together.

Meng Yin sighed: "I give up. I finally get to have some fun, but something like this happens."

Xia Nian looked at her cheeks, which were red from taking a bath, and asked, "Yinyin, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere else?"

Meng Yin shook her head and leaned against the barrel: "It's nothing now. It's just that feeling of weightlessness when I fell down. I really don't want to experience it again."

Xia Nian nodded, and she did the same.

"I'm so angry! Who put explosives on the bridge? When I find the person, I'm going to let Gu Ling put a poisonous insect on him!" Meng Yin gritted her teeth in anger. She slapped the water surface angrily, making a crisp snapping sound.

Outside the door, Lin Yue, who was leaning against the wall, pricked up his ears instantly.

Ask Gu Ling to release the poisonous insect? Judging from her tone, has her relationship with Gu Ling reached that point...

Xia Nian looked at Meng Yin and said seriously, "Yin Yin, I think this time he is targeting us."

When Lin Yue heard this, he immediately became alert.

This woman is very perceptive and observant.

Meng Yin was surprised and said, "Oh my god, a few weak women like us can also be regarded as targets. Are they sure?"

Xia Nian lowered his eyes and said, "Do you think it's right for us to stay with them? It's so dangerous. If we fail to stop them from splitting up, and instead lose our lives, wouldn't that be a loss?"

Lin Yue's eyes widened when he heard this. They stopped the four from splitting up? But there was no chance that the master's plan would be leaked. Could it be that their identities were even more mysterious than the master's?

"But if we don't stay with them, we can't go back." Meng Yin sighed, "Niannian, I don't think we can think like that. Think about it, we have finally established a good relationship with Xiahou Yu and the others."

She paused and continued, "With your and my cleverness, Tao Tao's support, A Zheng's force, and the power of the four of them, I don't believe anyone can defeat us. At worst, we can just fight back. I'm not afraid of those little cats and dogs who will use these dirty tricks. If you have the guts, I'll fight them face to face!"

She spoke passionately, slapping the water with her hands from time to time, with rich expressions. Xia Nian was moved by her emotions and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Yinyin is right. Let's get up quickly and listen to what they are saying." Xia Nian calmed himself down and affirmed her statement.

They had come this far, suppressing their emotions in order to prevent the split, and now they were going to throw away all their efforts with these shady tricks? No way!

Besides, the probability of the four of them splitting up is very small now, and maybe they will be able to go back soon.

Xia Nian regained her confidence and put on her clothes playfully with Meng Yin.

Meng Yin pinched her waist: "Nian Nian, your waist is getting thinner and thinner, how can Xia Houyu hold back!"

Xia Nian tapped her head: "What are you talking about? You're the only one who makes these jokes every day."

Lin Yue blushed when he heard this, but he came to a conclusion in his heart: Xia Nian and Xia Hou Yu have a very special relationship.

What surprised him even more was that the purpose of the four people staying here was to prevent them from splitting up. How did the four of them know the master's plan? He didn't tell anyone except himself and Liu Yi!

Lin Yue rolled his eyes and decided to investigate them privately.

Hearing that there was no movement inside, Lin Yue immediately flew out of the yard.

-

With a click, the door was opened.

Several people looked over and saw Xia Nian and Meng Yin walked in together.

They changed into clean clothes and still had the mist of fresh bathing on their bodies.

Xu Zheng ran forward and hugged them, "Luckily you're all okay! Otherwise I would have blamed myself to death!"

Meng Yin patted her on the back: "Don't worry, we are blessed with good fortune." After saying that, she and Gu Ling met each other's eyes.

Gu Ling looked her up and down, and seeing that she was still smiling as before, the anger and worry in his heart subsided a lot.

Meng Yin smiled at him with curved eyebrows, and Gu Ling suddenly remembered Meng Yin whom he saw when he first arrived at the river.

Pale little face, closed eyes, bloodless lips, and trembling body.

He gripped the handles of the chair tightly, and secretly vowed to dig three feet into the ground to find the person who arranged all this, and to chop him into pieces even if he died!
