Zhen Hai and Lanyi can only look at each other with both curiosity and helplessness after Zhiyuan left. They can only sigh as they subconsciously looked the west and north mansions.

"Master, don't you think we actually ended up into a complicated situation?" Lanyi asked. "Aren't you afraid that this family might be a cause of our death?"

"Maybe, I don't know. But I don't think my master is someone who will let her subordinates die under her supervision." Zhen Hai responded with a smile on his lips.

"You seemed very confident about her. You even enjoy calling her master." Lanyi seriously said. "I remember your words that you will never have another master aside from that person."

Zhen Hai: ".." It's not like a have an option.

Zhen Hai knitted his brows and turned to look at his beast with narrowed eyes. "I did say that but do I have a choice? You're not the one who received a slavery chain."

"Then will you ask her to free you from that? You can try to make a deal with her. She can still be your master if she wants you to serve her, but not using slavery chain." Lanyi worriedly asked.

Lanyi reminded. "Master, only the ones who received the slavery chain know that if she dies, you will die too and since I'm your contracted beast, it includes me."

"You're afraid of dying? Then I.." Zhen Hai wasn't able to finish his words when Lanyi immediately covered his mouth to stop him from saying the words.

"Master! I know what you're about to say! Don't even dare to say the words! I'm not afraid of death! I won't allow you to release me from our Nuòyán!" Lanyi exclaimed.

Lanyi's refusal was like the sun giving unconditional warmth on Zhen Hai's heart. However, there's a bit of guilt while thinking how they started to become Master and servant.

Zhen Hai removed Lanyi's hand that was covering his mouth, and he smiled with appreciation but he sighed before he said. "What should I do for you to leave me and have your own life?"

"How many times do I need to remind you that even though I saved you that time, you don't owe me your life?" Zhen Hai added with helplessness while he looked straight at Lanyi.

"I will only leave you and have my own life once you are.." Lanyi seriously said but suddenly smiled mischievously. "Once you are settled which means when you are married."

Zhen Hai: ".." Will that even happen?!

Zhen Hai's face turned dark while he looked at Lanyi who has a teasing smile on his lips. Of course he understood that it was because he never had any woman.

"You can push me away once you have your own woman by your side." Lanyi jokingly said while he immediately stepped back knowing Zhen Hai will hit him because of his words.

"And don't even try to cheat me and make a deal with a woman! That trick will never work on me twice. Hehe" Lanyi added with a teasing voice while recalling their past.

"Sheng Lanyi, you already escaped death once. You can't stay with me now that my situation is more dangerous than what we experienced before." Zhen Hai seriously uttered.

Zhen Hai's serious tone was enough for Lanyi to face his master and said. "It's been a while since the last time you call me this way. Is it because you can't escape from her?"

"No. Even when she releases me from the slavery chain, I will still stay and serve her." Zhen Hai firmly said. "But right now, I can't get you involve with my personal reasons."

Zhen Hai stares at Lanyi for a minute before he turned around and looked at the northern courtyard where YuYan and Li FuJin lives and he mumbled. "I just need to work hard."

At the northern courtyard that belongs to the other couple, YuYan suddenly paused and looked at their mansion but Li FuJin cannot guess what she was thinking.
