Cw: veeeeery brief sexual content.

Having pulled the chair over, effectively hiding both himself and Liu Wei, Yu Qingyu breathed out in relief at first.

They were hidden from sight for now, true, but how long would that last? They would be found out as soon as the Duke sat down by the desk! And even if he didn't go over there immediately, they were locked in place, with no way of escaping. He should have tried to flee to the balcony! True, he didn't have enough time, and there were high chances of him being spotted, but wasn't it still a safer option than hiding under the desk?

And he was there with Liu Wei, his enemy, who wanted to mess up his plans. Who's to say he wouldn't 'accidentally' reveal their location?

Being potentially discovered was, of course, the biggest problem. However, it was not the only one.
