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

Tao Tao forced a smile and took a step back silently, but Yi An pulled her into his arms.

"I don't want you to get hurt..." After a moment of silence, Tao Tao gave this fairly perfect answer.

Yi An laughed, "That's perfect. If I'm not injured, will you stay with me?"

He originally wanted to wait a few days before telling Tao Tao that he had feelings for her, but when he saw Tao Tao and Yi Qing in contact, he could no longer control the possession in his heart.

Tao Tao belongs to him alone. No matter who she likes or cares about, she can only stay by his side.

Tao Tao saw the sinister look in his eyes and cried out in her heart that something was wrong. She had to find a reason to leave.

"Mr. Yi'an, what are you talking about? Am I not right next to you now?" Tao Tao raised her hand and tried to pull his hand down.

She pretended to be very scared and said weakly: "You are like this... I am very scared."

Yi An didn't seem to buy it. Instead, he felt happy: "Afraid?"

He let go of Tao Tao's wrist and took a step back: "Sorry, I scared you."

Tao Tao rubbed her wrist. For Wushan's matter, she gritted her teeth and said, "It's okay. I just don't understand why you suddenly said this."

Yi An sat on the couch and rubbed his brows: "You will understand later."

Tao Tao nodded, "Then I'll go back first, you have a good rest."

Yi An nodded and looked up at her. Tao Tao had already slipped to the door and walked out quickly.

He narrowed his eyes. Just now, he couldn't see any affection for him in Tao Tao's eyes.

In other words, Tao Tao only has friendship for him at most.

Yian sneered: So what, as long as the person is by his side.

Tao Tao ran back to the house quickly, and the moment she opened the door, she saw Yi Qing waiting for her by the window.

He turned his back to the moonlight, folded his arms and looked at her. The coldness in his eyes disappeared the moment he saw Tao Tao.

Yiqing lifted his legs and walked towards her.

For a moment, Tao Tao felt an inexplicable sense of grievance in her heart, her mouth pursed, and tears welled up in her eyes.

Yi Qing was instantly anxious. He held Tao Tao's shoulders and said, "What's wrong? Did Yi An bully you?"

Tao Tao forced herself to hold back her tears. If she cried at this moment, Yi Qing would definitely not let her stay here.

She shook her head, her expression very pitiful: "I'm fine."

"How can it be okay?" Yiqing obviously didn't believe it.

Tao Tao bit her lip and said, "It's nothing... I just miss you a little bit, and I can't hold it back when I see you."

Yiqing was stunned and asked her stupidly: "What did you say? Miss me?"

Tao Tao's face suddenly turned red. She didn't expect herself to be so direct.

"I...just pretend I didn't say anything!" Tao Tao ran to the bed, sat down, and buried her face in the pillow.

Yiqing exhaled, the joy in his heart rising to the top of his head.

He ran to Tao Tao, his eyes hopeful: "A Tao, what did you just say? Say it again for me, okay?"

Tao Tao slowly raised her head, and the moment she saw his eyes, her heart beat faster.

Yiqing reached out and held her arm, then knelt on one knee in front of her.

Tao Tao's cheeks flushed. She had never said such words to a boy before. Yiqing was the first.

Yi Qing couldn't wait any longer, so he sat down next to Tao Tao and whispered, "A Tao, do you... have feelings for me too?"

Tao Tao was stunned. She raised her head slightly, and her hands trembled a little because of nervousness.

She does have feelings for Yiqing, but they are not from the same world!

Is she going to be with him regardless of everything? What will Yiqing do if she leaves here? He will be very sad. There is no future between them.

Thinking of this, Tao Tao lowered her head sadly.

It was no longer a feeling of grievance, but real pain. She finally met the person she liked, but the two of them were destined to have no future.

Tao Tao finally couldn't control herself and burst into tears.

When Yiqing saw that she was crying, he thought he was pushing her too hard, so he quickly reached out and hugged Tao Tao in his arms, apologetically saying, "I'm sorry, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have pushed you like this. Tao, I won't ask anymore, please don't cry, okay?"

Tao Tao felt even more upset. Yiqing's voice was gentle and pleasant, but as sharp as a knife, stabbing into her heart again and again.

She buried her face in Yiqing's chest and cried silently.

Yiqing felt distressed and a little overwhelmed. He patted her back gently with his big hands and kept saying words of comfort and apology.

After a long time, Tao Tao finally raised her head. Her eyes were a little red and swollen, and her lips were wet, like a confused little rabbit.

"A Tao..." Yiqing murmured.

Tao Tao didn't push him away, but cried in his arms. She must be happy with him, but why didn't Tao Tao say it? Is there something she is worried about...

Tao Tao sobbed a few times and spoke intermittently: "Yiqing... I'm sorry, can you give me some time... I don't know what to do now, give me some time... Let me think about it, okay?"

Yiqing stroked her tearful cheeks with his big hands. He didn't care about so many things now. He just wanted Tao Tao to stop being sad.

So he said repeatedly: "Okay, let's not talk about it now." After that, he hugged Tao Tao's waist tightly again, as if he wanted to hold her in his arms.

Tao Tao felt sorry for him, so she just leaned on his chest, waiting for her breathing to gradually calm down.

Yiqing felt the softness in his arms and smelled the faint fragrance of her hair, and suddenly felt that everything in front of him was very ethereal.

Tao Tao really liked him, she didn't deny it.

Yiqing secretly made up his mind to resolve the Wushan issue as soon as possible and never let Tao Tao suffer any grievances again.

After eating and drinking, Xu Zheng patted her stomach with satisfaction.

The subordinates behind her were all stunned. The key point was that the host of her own post gently asked her if she wanted to add some more.

Xu Zheng waved her hands: "No, no, I'm so full."

She asked again: "Pei Xuanxi, are we going to sleep here tonight or travel overnight?"

Pei Xuanxi said: "This place is not far from Xiaoyao City. Why don't we rest here tonight and continue our journey tomorrow?"

He was mainly thinking that Xu Zheng had slept in the carriage for the whole afternoon and would be very tired if she continued to ride in the carriage at night.

Xu Zheng nodded and made an OK gesture to indicate that she was fine.

After a while, A Yan went to book a room.

The waiter said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, brother, we only have three rooms left in the inn."

A Yan frowned and told Pei Xuanxi about this.

Pei Xuanxi looked up and saw that there were about ten people including Ah Yan. He and Xu Zheng needed to have their own room, and the rest of the people had to take turns to keep watch at night.

After hearing this, Xu Zheng said, "How about this, Pei Xuanxi and I will share one room, and the dozen or so of you can share two rooms, is that ok?"

She looked at the waiter again: "Are there any extra quilts?"

The waiter nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes."

When these grown men heard this, they looked at each other, and occasionally looked up at Pei Xuanxi's expression.

Pei Xuanxi had originally planned to make such an arrangement, and Xu Zheng directly said it, which was exactly what he wanted.

"Since A Zheng said so, let's arrange it this way." Pei Xuanxi said.

The men's eyes widened immediately.

Their host slept in the same room with a girl?

Xu Zheng yawned and called the waiter to take them to the room.

These rooms are located in different locations. Pei Xuanxi and Xu Zheng live on the second floor.

Pushing the door open, I saw that the room was very large, with not only a bed but also a couch.

Just as Xu Zheng wanted, she sat on the couch and said casually, "Pei Xuanxi, I'll sleep here tonight."

Pei Xuanxi would of course not agree. He said, "Azheng, you go sleep on the bed. It is not right for a girl to sleep on the couch." His tone was gentle, but it carried a tone that did not refuse.

Xu Zheng knew Pei Xuanxi's temper, so she could only stand up and say, "Okay, okay, then I'll sleep on the bed."

She walked outside: "I'll go find the waiter and ask him to bring two buckets of hot water."

Pei Xuanxi nodded in agreement, walked to the window and looked outside.

From time to time, the sound of cicadas and rustling could be heard outside. The lonely moon was also covered by dark clouds. Apart from a few scattered lights, it was almost pitch black.

Pei Xuanxi closed the window, took out a hidden weapon from his sleeve and placed it on the window.

As long as someone opens it, the hidden weapon will immediately shoot out tiny silver needles.

Recently, he heard that some people pretended to be people from Wanxiang Building and attacked some inns or wealthy people on the road.

That's great, let them have a touch.
