(ch.79)

Xaing wakes up at 5 am, it was still kinda dark and it was kinda cold since last night he forgot to turn on the heat. Xaing feels kinda sick but he shrugged it off. He looks at his chest but he didn't see Ying Yue, he starts to panic until he looks to his side he saw her sleeping in between Yu and him. He looks at his phone, he saw messages from his manager saying that he doesn't need to in for work for today. Xaing got out of bed to do get ready for the day, he went to do his morning routine but he first grabs an outfit, then he left for the bathroom.

Yu woke up to someone shaking her, she said "What," in a sleepy tone as she slowly opens her eyes. She saw chubby cheeks, big eyes, adorable face child shaking her, telling her to wake up. Yu knew it was just Ying Yue so she got up to play with her, as she sat up she saw that it was 8 am and Xaing wasn't in bed, she bet he was in the bathroom.

Yu asks Yue "Do you want to hear a song," in a joyful and curious tone, Ai nodded with a smile on her face. Yu stood up, helps her get off the bed, they walk to the living room to the keyboard piano, Yu starts to play the only song she knows how to play on the piano and Yue starts to smile and clapping her hands.

After she was done she could hear clapping behind her, she turns around and saw that it was just Xaing. Yu asks "When did you get here," in a startled tone.

"While you were in the middle of playing the song and when did you learn to play the piano," in a calm tone as he towards them.

She said "Well I learned how to play the piano for many years but stop because I just didn't feel like it so I told my mom that I quit," in a calm tone as she looks back at the piano. "By the way don't you need to get ready for work," in a confused tone.

"No, my manager said I can stay home if I wanted so I'm going to stay home for the morning and later I think I'm going to go to the company to work for a little bit and come back and I'll take Ying Yue with me," in a jolly tone. "But what about you," in a curious tone as he raises an eyebrow with a sly smile.

Yu's eyes widen, got up, and ran while saying "Oh shoot! I totally forgot," in a shocked tone and into their room. After a few minutes, Yu was ready, she quickly grabs her things and left as she was leaving she said: "While you're home, you'll have to do the groceries, I'll send you the list."

Xaing looked back at Ying Yue with a confused face while she tilted as she shrugs. He took Ai to the couch, put on a kid show, and went to the kitchen. He saw that there was a book that he had never seen before so he starts to look at what's written there. He saw that it was a recipe book that Yu wrote, he knew that the book was meant for him.

He looks in the fridge to make food before they go shopping, he saw eggs and chicken so he decides to make chicken fried rice. After they ate, Xaing and Yue change their clothes, grabs the diaper bag, then left to go shopping.

When Yu got to work she went to her desk and begin to translate her novels into English until it was time to go talk with the investor. After 2 hours, Yu was almost done with her fifth novel but then one of her colleges asks Yu to help her so Yu went to help.

As Xaing was shopping he can hear whispers about him and glances at him but he continues to shop for the things Yu sent on the list. An elderly lady came up to him and said "Are you Chen Xaing, the singer?"

Xaing said "Yes, ma'am, I am Xaing. How can I help you," in a respectful tone.

"Can I get a photo to show my granddaughter, she's your fan," added the elderly lady, Xaing said ok. They took a picture together, the lady said thanks and walked away. Xaing continues to shop. A few more people asked to take a picture or an autograph and Xaing agreed.

Yu was so busy with her work that she didn't notice that it was almost time to go meet up with the investor, by the time she notices she was in a rush to get things ready. When she was driving there she was sure that the investor has left or will be angry and she finally got there she was a few minutes late. She utter "I'm super sorry that I'm late I was so caught with my work, this won't happen again," out of breath in an apologetic tone as she was walking into the room but she didn't see the investor's face.

"No, it's fine. Come and sit down, let's start talking about the movie," told the investor in a calm tone. Yu thought the investor's voice sounds so familiar voice to someone she knows but she couldn't think of who.

When she looked at the investor she saw Li Bai, she said "Bai, what are you doing here," in a shocked and confused tone.

"I'm actually the one that is-" he was cut off by Yu.

"I'm probably in the wrong room, I'll leave now," as she got her things to leave but then Bai said "I guess you don't want to make your novel into a movie," in a hinting tone.

Yu backed up, looked at Bai, and said "You're the investor," in a shocked tone as she sat back down and he nodded. She said "Bai, let's talk about the movie," in a nervous tone as she awkwardly smiled.

Bai couldn't help but chuckle and he said "Ok then let's start so I think we should really," they continue about how they're going to turn her novel into a movie.

When they got back from shopping, he put Ying Yue down for a nap, he went back to his car to get the groceries. As he grabbed the grocery bags he saw Ming getting out of her car so he asked her to help him bring the rest of the bags and she agreed. Afte Ming helped him bring all of the groceries he thanks her and she left. He checked what time it was and it was 1:30 pm. He was planning to go to work in two hours or so, he wanted to make some food so he or Yue can eat while he's working.

Xaing was done cooking one of his favorites food that Yu cooked for him, then he went to pack things that the baby will be needed in the diaper bag and the things he'll need in a backpack. He went to check if Ying Yue was awake yet and she hasn't so he went to pack the food at his own pace, after a few minutes Xaing was done packing the things, now all he has to do is get Ying Yue dressed up.

After he got her to wake up he took her for a bath, dried her hair, got her in something comfortable to wear, and did her hair. Xaing helps her put on shoes and a sweatshirt, got himself ready, and then they left.

When they got into a practice room Xaing started to practice as he let Ying Yue watch him. She started to dance with him, he couldn't help but laugh. Xaing said, "Ying Yue, are you having fun," she nods with a big smile. He stops his regular dance and being to silly dance with her.

"Yes, I do get on with my team," said Yu in a calm tone.

"Is there any other staff or members on board too," asks Bai, "or is it just you?"

"Yes, my whole team is on board." They continue talking for another hour or two, in the end, they shook hands making it a deal. As they were walking out of the restaurant Yu asks if Bai wants to get dinner later, he agreed so she told him to send the location to her, then they went their own ways.

When Yu got back to her company she saw her whole time standing in front of her, then Mr.Yang walks towards her, asks her how it went, and she said that everything went well and they made a deal. Everyone screams in excitement and yelled "YAY!" Once Mr. Yang got everyone to be quiet he said "Tonight at 6 pm, I'll treat everyone to dinner. I hope everyone can come especially Ms. Wan."

"Mr. Yang, I'm afraid I can't come, I already made plans with someone tonight," noted Yu in a guilty tone. Everyone went silent for a second but then Mr. Yang said that it's fine and that Yu did a lot since the movie is going to give them big benefits. Mr. Yang said, "Ok, let's get back to work cause work isn't going to get itself done so get back to work," everyone went back to their desks and got to work.

As Xaing and Ai were dancing Mr. Zhao enter, said "Xaing, what are you doing? You're supposed to be practicing not playing around," in a serious tone with an expressionless face as he walks towards Xaing.

Xaing looked at his manager, went to turn off the music, then said "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhao but she's so cute, how can I not silly dance with her," in a joyful, guilty tone.

"I know she's cute but this is not a place where you'll play around. You came here to work," in a very serious tone.

"I'm sorry, this won't happen again," in a guilty tone as he looks down at the ground. As he's looking down he could hear Mr. Zhao quietly laugh, when he looked at his manager he saw that he was laughing and Xaing just gave a confused look. Once Mr. Zhao got himself to stop laughing a little bit he said "Sorry, I was just joking," with an apologetic look, then said "but really, you should really be practicing," in a joyful tone.

Xaing gave a relieved look and said "Mr. Zhao, don't scare me like that," in a startled tone. Then added "I will practice but I don't think anyone is going to watch her," as he looks at Ying Yue, who is just looking at herself, in the mirror.

Mr. Zhao sighed and said "I'll babysit her until you're done and if you ever need someone to watch her while you're working then just tells me but if I'm not here then I guess you'll just have to watch her yourself," in a calm tone, Xaing nodded. Mr. Zhao spread his arm and said "Come on, Yue, do you want to go play with uncle?" Yue turns around, as soon as she saw Mr. Zhao, she automatically ran towards him.

Xaing was so surprised at how excited she looked to see his manager, then Xaing said "Manager Zhao, what did you do to make her like you so quick?" in a surprised tone. Manager Zhao just shrugged, acting like he doesn't know what Xaing meant.

Manager Zhao picked up her, asked Xaing if he has anything for Yue, Xaing gave him the diaper bag, said that everything he'll need will be in the bag, then manager Zhao left with the diaper bag and Ai while Xaing went back to practice.

At 6 pm, Mr. Yang said "Whoever that is coming to dinner you better start packing up," everyone immediately started packing up. Yu continues to work as her colleagues walk past her, she could hear some of them saying "Maybe she has a date with her boyfriend, why else would she not go to dinner with us," she quickly ignores what they were saying and kept working. Some would say "I really admire Yu, she works so much that it makes me kinda wonder if she's a workaholic," Yu doesn't know if that was a compliment or an insult but she'll take it as a compliment.

Yu got a text from Bai that has a location and a text that said "Meet me here at 8 pm," Yu replied with a-ok. After an hour of working she heard someone running somewhere in the office, she stood up to look around the office to see if one of her colleagues forgot something and came back but there as no one expects her. She thought that she probably just hearing things and got back to work.

When Yu got to the restaurant, Bai waving his hand so she went to sit with him, she asked if he has been waiting long, he shooked head no. As they were taking her took see from the corner of her eye that a man in all black taking pictures of them but before she could go confront him, he already left. They ate while catching up on life, a few times fans asked for autographs.

When they left the restaurant Yu thanks, Bai, for the dinner and drove back home but as she was driving she got a call from an unknown caller, when she picked up. The caller said "Hi, this Xaing manager, he's in the hospital. Please come to General Medical Hospital," then he hung up. Yu quickly put the name of the hospital on the map and follow the directions.
