Afterlife Department

Stable World, Fourth District.

"Will the director be alright?" Jin Chulin asked Fei Xuli. His face is filled with worry. 

"He doesn't look good earlier…" Lan Tian said as he remembered Hao Baiyun looked pale when they left him earlier.

"You're wrong! The director is good-looking!" Zheng Jian told Lan Tian.

"Jian Jian… you're speaking of a different thing…" Lan Tian sighed as he placed his palm on his face. "I meant his complexion. His complexion." He stressed to him.

"Oh.. 'complexion'." Zheng Jian said. "Does the director have a complex?" he asked.

Lan Tian put another palm on his face and sighed while Jin Chulin grimaced. "The director is sick." Zi Chen kindly explained to Zheng Jian.

"Eh?!" Zheng Jian was surprised as he turned to Zi Chen.

Finally, he got it – they thought.

"T-the director… there's something wrong in his head?!" Zheng Jian exclaimed in shock.

"... " - or not. They thought.

"Xuli." Jin Yu looked at the four following behind them before he called Fei Xuli. "Is the young master an idiot? He doesn't look like it." He said as he turned to Fei Xuli.

Fei Xuli smiled and patted Jin Yu's head. "Ah Yu is smart. Young master is a normal person." He told him and turned to the others. "Don't worry. Help had already arrived." He told them.

"Huh?" they said as they looked at Fei Xuli and saw him smiling. Fei Xuli's words always seem to have a deep meaning. 

Fei Xuli just smiled seeing their confused expression. "Let's split up." He Told them. "Same teams from last night. I'll be expecting your reports later." He said. "However – " he raised his finger. " – if something came up, prioritize your life." He told them.

Their expression changed. Working in the Supernatural Department, they already knew there's something more than meets the eye. "Yes!" they answered, their expression serious.

"Alright~ everyone, let's work hard!" Fei Xuli said with a bright smile on his seemingly pure handsome face.

However, they can't help but shiver. There's nothing good with that smile that reeks of evil! They thought as they took a step back from Fei Xuli and Jin Yu. The only one who would appreciate that smile is –

"Xuli. You're really handsome when you smile!" Jin Yu said as he stared at Fei Xuli's face. "But of course, you're also handsome even if you don't smile!" he told him.

Fei Xuli ignored the others as he turned to Jin Yu. "Thank you, Ah Yu. Ah Yu is really sweet." he said as he rubbed Jin Yu's head. Jin Yu grinned s a response as he let Fei Xuli spoil him. 

"…" – the domesticated Jin Yu. They thought as they looked at Jin Yu who resembled like a cat being petted by Fei Xuli. They don't know if it's due to Jin Yu's half-blindness or it's just his idiotic nature that he's attached to the devil in an angel's clothing named Fei Xuli. Even the airhead Zheng Jian could feel the evil radiating from Fei Xuli. "We'll be leaving!" they said as they pulled their partner with them and ran away.

Fei Xuli watched them leave in a hurry. "Now, then – " he muttered and looked at Jin Yu who looked like a black cat beneath his palm. Only him purring is missing, and he'll definitely be a cat. He thought and remembered the first time they met. It was not long after Hao Baiyun picked him up from the streets, Hao Baiyun also picked up Jin Yu.

"Jin Yu. If you have something you like, tell me." the young Hao Baiyun said. "You're all my family now. There's no need to hold back." The orphaned and alone Hao Baiyun told him and Jin Yu after Hao Baiyun found out Jin Yu liked a toy but is shy to tell him.

"R-Really?!" Jin Yu said, his dull eyes seemed to be shining like the stars that time.

"Yes!" Hao Baiyun firmly nodded. "I've got lots of money my grandparents and parents left me. Go on. Tell me, what do you like?" he asked.

Jin Yu's shaking hand raised, and he pointed the taciturn child standing behind Hao Baiyun. "X-Xuli… I like Xuli." He said, his fair face turning red as he shyly looked at Fei Xuli who was shocked.

Hao Baiyun turned to Fei Xuli, then his face lit up. "I see!" he said as he grabbed Fei Xuli's hand, and also Jin Yu's hand. "Xuli. Jin Yu likes you. What will you say?" he asked, thinking that it was a simple like between children. Hao Baiyun never would have thought it'll develop into something different when they grew up.

Staring at Jin Yu's blushing face, Fei Xuli's poker face can't help but turn red, too. "I – I…" he said. "I also like… I also like Ah Yu." He said.

Fei Xuli blinked, and he was pulled back from his thoughts. Of course I like Ah Yu. He smiled as he planted a kiss on Jin Yu's head. Seeing Jin Yu raised his head and looked at him, with his eyes filled with confusion, he couldn't help but tease him. Who wouldn't like such an adorable person? He thought as he lowered his head and kissed him on the lips.

Jin Yu's eyes widened when Fei Xuli suddenly kissed him. His face can't help but turn red. "X-Xuli!" he called. "W-why…" he said and can't help but shift his gaze when Fei Xuli looked at him in the eye. Fei Xuli's eyes are burning. 

"Ah Yu…" Fei Xuli called. "You don't like me anymore?" he asked, showing a hurt expression on his handsome face.

Jin Yu's heart immediately softened when he saw he had 'hurt' Fei Xuli - this man, his soft spot. "I – I… I like – " he answered, blushing furiously. He looked away when his gaze met Fei Xuli's gaze. "B-but… but, young master said that k – k – kiss… kissing should be done between lovers." He explained. Hao Baiyun really did once told him about it. Jin Yu may be naive, but he learn this fast and he can clearly remember them. Thus, when Fei Xuli had asked him if he doesn't like him, he can't help but be embarrassed since what happened before is just a child's willfulness. They were kids, so they would be unrestrained with their words and actions. But, he didn't expect for Fei Xuli to take him seriously back then. Well, he's actually also serious when he said those words before... 

"Ah Yu." Fei Xuli called as he gently held Jin Yu's hands. "Did young master tell you what 'lovers' means?" he asked and intertwined their fingers. He held them tightly as he stared at Jin Yu's eyes, not hiding even a bit of his emotions. 

Jin Yu felt he's going to drown in Fei Xuli's eyes when he finally can't avoid Fei Xuli's gaze after he caught him. "H-huh? N-no…" He answered, his heart thumping loudly against his chest because it's beating fast. "I - I asked him, but he didn't answer. His face turned red, though…" he said, exposing Hao Baiyun after being hypnotized by Fei Xuli. 

As I've thought. Fei Xuli grinned as he pulled Jin Yu into his arms. "Ah Yu. Lovers mean two people who likes each other." He told him.

"'L – likes… likes each other'?" Jin Yu said and raised his head to look at Fei Xuli. However, there's expectation in them. "T-that… does that mean we… we're… l – lovers?" he asked, his cheeks flushed redder. 

Bingo. Fei Xuli thought as he can't help but pinch Jin Yu's fair cheeks. "Of course we're lovers." He said. "So, we can kiss each other." He told him.

"B-but… I also like young master." Jin Yu said, his brows knit. There's only two people to be lovers. What should I do? He thought, confused.

"Ah Yu." Fei Xuli called. "Do you feel like kissing young master, too?" he asked, his face serious.

Jin Yu doesn't know why, but his face turned even redder. However, it was not due to embarrassment but indignation. "Of course not!" he immediately said. "Y-young master… young master is different!" he said. He highly respects him!

"Then – " Fei Xuli said as he pulled wrapped his arms around Jin Yu's waist. " – since you like me, and you can kiss me, then we're lovers." He said and leaned his head down closer to Jin Yu's face. "Get it?" he smiled. "You can kiss only me – your lover." He added.

Jin Yu nodded, feeling dazzled by Fei Xuli's smile. If the others are here, they would see Jin Yu was bewitched by Fei Xuli. He cannot be saved anymore. "Y-yes. Xuli… Xuli is my lover." He said, in a trance. "And I am Xuli's lover." He added.

"Good." Fei Xuli said as he caressed Jin Yu's face. Damn it… he's making me go insane. He thought as he stared at Jin Yu. His eyes is full of obsession. "Let's kiss each other." He said. He didn't wait for Jin Yu to answer as he quenched his thirst. Ah Yu… you're only mine! He thought as he deepened their kiss.

Bewitching others… this is a natural talent exclusive to only exceptionally-looking people – like Fei Xuli.
