Chapter 85

"Should we?"

"I'm a servant, and you're a noble, my lady. How can a servant and a noble share a blanket? Don't you think we must die in order to live?"

Shang already knew from the moment he embraced Yun Xiao.

He knew that once he crossed the line, he'd never be able to go back.

And the consequences of their actions were clear to him.

The new servant would arrive in a few days.

Once the new servant was here, they wouldn't be able to maintain this relationship.

They might be able to continue in secret behind the servant's back, but was that the best they could do?

Hiding as if they were committing a crime. Suppressing their breaths as their hearts twisted inside their chests...

However, if they waited any longer, it would be the end.

There was only one solution.

Running away.

However, if a slave ran away, a bounty hunter would come chasing after them.
