Back To Work

Waking up in the morning, Yu Bin found herself in Xian Chen's arms. Opening her eyes she saw him sleeping soundly. It had been a long time since those days when she used to wake up and see Xian Chen first thing in the morning. Raising her hand she brushed a few strands of hair that made their way to his face.

Because she touched his face, Xian Chen woke up and opened his eyes and he was face to face with Yu Bin. At first, he was shocked but then he remembered…last night they were together. Tears started to wet his cheeks and Yu Bin panicked instantly.

"A-Xian, what's wrong? Are you ok? Why are you crying? Did I hurt you without notice? Please say something…" Yu Bin said, wiping his tears, panicked.

"....I never thought I would ever keep you in my arms again. I'm so happy…. It seems like I'm dreaming. I'm afraid that I will wake up any moment and see that it's just a dream ...." Xian Chen said trembling, more tears having their way on his face.

"A-Xian… I'm sorry…. I made you so sad….but don't worry, I will always be by your side, never hurt you again" Yu Bin said, hugging him tightly.

" I'm going to have a shower first then I'll prepare breakfast for us" she added and tried to get up from the bed but Xian Chen grabbed her hand and pulled her back to bed kissing her tenderly.

"Thank you for remembering me! " Xian Chen said gently, looking into her eyes.

"Whatever will happen, even if we will be reborn another hundred times, I'll make sure to remember you somehow." Yu Bin answered back, grabbing his hand.

"Now I'm going to take a shower and then prepare breakfast. Don't forget we have a job to attend to and a criminal to find. " She added and left for the bathroom letting Xian Chen dream with his eyes open.

After they had a bath and ate breakfast Xian Chen and Yu Bin grabbed their things and left to work. Opening the door to the office the two found Moon working on his computer.

"Good morning Moon,"

"Good morning boss, how are you? When did you wake up? Are you sure you are feeling good enough to start working?" Moon said worriedly, rising from his chair.

"I am here too…" Xian Chen said excitedly, appearing in front of Yu Bin and raising two fingers but the reaction he received was not what he thought it would be.

" you brat come here…. " Moon said, grabbing Xian Chen's ear and pulling him into a corner.

"Aw, aw, aw, aw, Moon….hurts, it hurts" Xian Chen cried out in pain.

"Shut up…. You brat, how did the boss get hurt? Didn't you say she will be safe? " Moon said slowly but angrily.

"I'm sorry…" Xian Chen said, looking down. He felt that he didn't have any excuse for what happened but at least one good thing happened, Yu Bin remembered him, and now all the misunderstandings got cleared.

"A-Xian…" Yu Bin called out from her office and Xian Chen's eyes sparkled.

"Yes, darling…" Xian Chen answered in a loud voice startling Moon who got lost between the two endearments. Before Moon figures out what is going on, Xian Chen already left and he was in Yu Bin's office.

"A-Xian, what happened with our case? " Yu Bin asked, not understanding where the records of the last case they were working on disappeared.

"Ah, you were asleep for almost two weeks so the management took our case and gave it to the forensics team." Xian Chen explained and Yu Bin got up from her chair and punched the table startling him.

"Baby what are you doing? " Xian Chen shouted worriedly.

"What happened? " Moon asked worriedly entering the office. He just heard a loud noise then Xian Chen shouted so he came fast.

" Let me see…" Xian Chen said, grabbing Yu Bin's hand and ignoring Moon. "What is wrong with you baby? " he added, looking at her hand that got a bit wounded.

"I'm ok but A-Xian we need to get back the case fast," Yu Bin said looking worried into Xian Chen's eyes.

"Um, boss? I don't think we can do that …" Moon said and the two turned around to look at him.

"He is right …" Xian Chen agreed.

"Why?" Yu Bin asked not understanding what happened the time she slept.

"Because the higher-ups took our case," Xian Chen said and Moon approved.

" Why would the higher-ups take our case?'' Yu Bin asked herself but didn't get any answer.

*Knock *Knock

A knock on the door disturbed the three and Moon opened the door.

"Hi…"

"What are you doing here? " Moon asked, annoyed.

*This woman will get boss more stressed now* he thought but the next moment he got a new shock.

"Master…" Yu Bin called out and ran to her, hugging her tight.

"What is going on here?" Moon asked, perplexed. " Boss is calling Xian Chen, A-Xian. Xian Chen is called Boss, baby, or darling. And now you both….boss let me ask you, weren't you always annoyed by her? Why are you now hugging her like she is a lost family member who you found over many years? Moon said, exasperated by the situation. He didn't even know how he should behave now.

"Wait, wait… how is Yu Bin calling Xian Xian?"

"Who is Xian Xian now, Miss Fang?"

"Eh? This individual here, " she said, pointing to Xian Chen.

"And why are you calling him Xian Xian? Is he your family member?" Moon said and Xian Chen looked at Bao Fang who smiled warmly at him.

" he is, he was and always will be my family member, but anyway…" she said turning around to Moon," you said that Xian Xian called Yu Bin baby and darling?"

"Yes…" Moon said confused by Bao Fang's behavior.

"oooohhhh, so you both are a thing now?" Bao Fang said looking at Xian Chen who nodded happily. " then all misunderstanding is gone?" She added looking at Yu Bin who nodded happily. "Then I am so happy… " she continued and hugged Yu Bin while making a sign to Xian Chen to come into the hug too and he didn't lose even a second before running into the hug.

"I have a feeling that I'm disturbing you here…" Moon said and wanted to leave but Bao Fang dragged him into the group hug.

"Stay with us…" Bao Fang said while tears were threatening to fall from his eyes. "I should thank you for always being around these two till now." She added then everyone let go of the hug.

"Master…you are still a crybaby," Yu Bin said giggling.

"Boss, I'm still confused. Ok, I understand somehow you and Xian Chen got together but why are you calling Miss Fang, master?"

"Ah, that's a long story and I don't think you will be able to believe what we will tell you. "

"Try me…" Moon said confidently.

" We three are immortals!" Bao Fang said and Moon looked at her strangely.

"Ah…okay…." Moon said and turned around to leave.

"You don't believe it, " Bao Fang said, looking at him. She expected him to not believe. If she was in his place she wouldn't believe it either.
