Chapter 5 She is someone who was going to be a captain

Song Ci idolized her sister from young. If Song Fei was a sniper, then Song Ci was Song Fei's gun. Wherever Song Fei pointed, Song Ci attacked.

This all changed eight years ago.

Eight years ago, the family of four drove out west to Bijiang City for a four-day vacation. At the hotel, Song Ci’s parents stayed in a room while Song Fei and Song Ci stayed in another room.

In the wee hours at one o’clock, Song Ci had fallen asleep while reading a book. Song Fei was still on her computer, reading the information that Fu Han-Shen had sent her.

When the house shook, Song Fei immediately realized that it was an earthquake. Knowing the danger, Song Fei's first reaction was not to escape, but to wake up Song Ci who was still deep asleep. She ran towards the toilet, dragging Song Ci along.

As soon as they reached the small corridor outside the toilet, the house began to collapse. At this moment of crisis, it was Song Fei who pushed Song Ci into the toilet. Song Fei herself did not even have a chance to hide in the toilet. Just like that, she fell together with the floor under her feet and disappeared before Song Ci's eyes.

By the time the rescue soldiers found Song Ci, five days had already passed. Although Song Fei was dug up a day earlier than Song Ci, she was injured too badly and lost too much blood. She remained unconscious.

Song Fei gave her younger sister Song Ci the chance of living, and she herself slept like this for eight years.

Song Ci's life was something Song Fei betted her own life on to keep. Anyone who harmed Song Fei would become Song Ci's unforgivable enemy!

Thinking of her sister being killed by Mu Mian in her previous life with such a tragic end and without even a corpse left behind, Song Ci could not wait to destroy Mu Mian!

She was so stupid!

Not only did she not know the truth behind her sister’s death, she even treated the murderer who killed her sister as her father, loving, respecting, and listening to him.

Looking at Song Fei, Song Ci's lips trembled for quite a while before she let out a hoarse cry from deep within her throat, "Sister...!" After calling out her name, Song Ci finally could not help but bury her head onto Song Fei's shoulder, wailing in sorrow.

In the quiet ward, Song Ci's cries were heart-breaking.

After crying a whole bucket of tears, Song Ci slowly calmed down while remembering that her sister was still alive. She spoke to Song Fei for a long time in the ward, then at one in the afternoon, she got up and left.

Before leaving, she nonchalantly installed a hidden camera in an inconspicuous corner of the room.

Pulling up into the parking lot of the Mu house, Song Ci saw Mu Mian who had just returned from a business trip and was standing under the pavilion talking on the phone.

Mu Mian owned one of the first generation of e-commerce companies that emerged in China.

In 2004, Mu Mian caught the right timing and seized the opportunity to establish a shopping website dedicated to female sex, called 'Titillating'. Later, the business got better and better, and the scale kept expanding. Now it

has become one of the most famous shopping sites in China.

Nine years ago, the ambitious Mu Mian also established Chaoyang Co Ltd, and the company had grown bigger and bigger under his management. Now, Mu Mian had become one of wealthy in Wangdong City.

Of course, there is still a gap between the nouveau riche and the vieux riche. 1

T/N: 1 For those not into fancy English/French like me, basically new money and old money. 😊

As the adopted daughter of Mu Mian, with pretty looks and her sexy and enchanting figure, Song Ci was renowned amongst the ladies of Wangdong City. Song Ci's clothes and fashion style was idolized by many girls. On Weibo, she was a fashionista with more than two million fans.

In her previous life, it was with this title of Number One Lady that Song Ci married Cheng Zi-Ang, the second young master of the Dongchuan Group. Their grand wedding also appeared on the trending page on Weibo.

Song Ci gazed at Mu Mian from a distance with an unprecedented insight and scrutiny in her eyes.

Mu Mian wore a grey polo shirt and black trousers that hid the muscles in his legs. Forty-four-year-old Mu Mian was in the prime of his life. His outstanding appearance and tall figure made him appear dashing.

Because of his good looks, female artists and models often gossip about him. But Mu Mian was a devoted person. Even with all the bees and butterflies buzzing around him, Du Ting-Ting was the only one in his eyes.

Looking at the man who was born with such a warm face, Song Ci could not imagine Mu Mian as a killer.

Probably because Song Ci's gaze was too focused, Mu Mian noticed it and turned around.

Mu Mian frowned when he saw Song Ci staring at him with a small crease above her eybrows, looking slightly serious.

"Song Song, Aunt Zhang said that you had a heat stroke yesterday. Why didn't you rest more at home? Where did you go to play?" Mu Mian seemed to be scolding Song Ci but was actually caring for her health.

Every time she thought about how under the guise of his upright-looking appearance hid a hideous demon, when facing Mu Mian, Song Ci's hair stood, and her back felt a little chilly.

She reached behind her back and pinched her waist tightly. The pain stimulated Song Ci's brain and kept her mind clear.

Song Ci adjusted her state of mind and smiled lightly at Mu Mian, "Father." Song Ci walked to Mu Mian's side, looked at him in respect, and explained, "I didn’t go to play. I went to see my sister."

Hearing this, Mu Mian's face was slightly sullen. "Is Song Fei still the same?"

Song Ci nodded in confirmation.

Mu Mian asked again, "What did the doctor say this time?"

"It's still the same old speech. Sister's condition hasn't improved or deteriorated. Whether she can wake up depends on her fate." Every time she talked about Song Fei, Song Ci mood always soured.

Mu Mian turned and walked to the pond.

Song Ci also walked to Mu Mian's side and stood next to him. She put her hands on the railing and stared down at the few red koi fish swimming around in the pond.

"Song Song, it's been eight years. If she were meant to wake up, she would have done so a long time ago." Mu Mian looked down at Song Ci's side profile and could not help but sigh, "You have to learn to accept reality."

How could Song Ci not understand this fact?

Song Fei had slept for eight years. Just as Mu Mian said, if she were meant to wake up, Song Fei would have woken up a long time ago.

Waiting for Song Fei to wake up was a foolish dream.

But Song Ci did not dare to not wait. If even she gave up on Song Fei, then no one in this world would remember Song Fei anymore. Song Ci no longer had parents, she could not not have Song Fei.

Song Ci was biased but also stubborn. She said, "Every day that the doctor doesn't pronounce Song Fei brain dead is another day I will continue waiting."

Mu Mian knew that Song Ci was stubborn, so he did not continue to say anything about it.

Mu Mian changed the subject. "By the way, you have already graduated. What are your plans for the future? You aren’t really going to work at an airline, right?"

Song Ci graduated from the Civil Aviation Flight University of China, CAFUC. Her dream was to become a female flight captain.

In fact, Song Ci originally wanted to be an Air Force pilot. She had a good high school education, was tall, and her eyesight also qualified. She could have studied at the Aviation University of Air Force but she got injured in the earthquake that year and had a scar on her waist. She failed the physical examination and unfortunately did not get accepted.

Song Ci could only give up and went to CAFUC.

Without waiting for Song Ci to answer, Mu Mian said bluntly, "I know you want to be a captain, but how can it be so easy to be one? How many college students graduate from the flight academy in the country every year? In the end, how many really become pilots? Not to mention, you are a girl."

Mu Mian's last words really pushed her buttons. What does it mean by ‘Not to mention, you are a girl’?

Song Ci expression immediately changed. She said to Mu Mian, "What's wrong with being girl? Even the king is given birth by his mother?"

Mu Mian, "..."
