Aboard the helicopter
For some reason, Madison could never sleep when she was flying a
plane herself, but as a passenger, slumber came easily.
She nodded off, faintly, and soon found solace in Ethan’s embrace.
While she dozed, Ethan scoured the W******p group chats covertly maintained by William, browsing through the company gossip.
Such inconsequential chatter would usually have gone unnoticed by him. But now, with Madison by his side, he was attuned to the delicate dynamics of male-female relationships, determined to shield her from any insecurity.
Scrolling through the messages, Ethan spotted one
“I happened to catch a glimpse of Captain Shihua’s competition form. The partner’s contact details listed our President Grant.”
“If it weren’t true, she wouldn’t dare make it up, right?”
“The plot thickens.”
Who really is the Chairman’s girlfriend?
If Captain Madison was the decoy, what was the rationale behind those F******k posts by Chairman Jiang?
The employees, with time on their hands, relished in the drama, especially when it involved the big boss – it made for a more thrilling spectacle.
Suddenly, Shihua’s presence in the Mukino Airlines building became the epicenter of everyone’s attention. No one wanted to inadvertently offend the potential future boss lady – their jobs could hinge on it.
“Good day, Captain Shihua.”
“Captain Shihua has arrived.”
“Watch your step, Captain Shihua.”
“Would you prefer warm or cold water, Captain Shihua?”
Shihua understood the motivation Behind this fawning behavior, and she soaked In It unashamedly this was the outcome she desired,
after all.
Her chat with Uncle Grant had reassured her of Mason’s willingness to welcome her as his daughter-in-law.
As for Madison she was merely a fleeting presence, hardly a threat.
How could Ethan choose Madison over his father, right?
“Captain Shihua.”
Shihua looked toward the lounge entrance upon hearing her name.
Yun Lei entered, carrying fresh fruit. Her smile was gentle, “Captain Shihua, these are fresh fruits we just got in the company. I’m not scheduled for any flights right now, so please, have a taste first.”
Shihua took their obsequious gestures for granted.
“Thank you, you can leave it there,” Shihua said with a hint of politeness, “Have a seat.”
Yun Lei sat down, her posture demure, her skirt neatly arranged.
“Are you new here?” Shihua vaguely remembered her.
Yun Lei nodded.
Shihua took in her young appearance and pretty face, albeit lacking in refinement nothing more than superficial gloss.
“It’s kind of you, you should have some too,” Shihua pushed the expensive fruit platter towards Yun Lei.
Yun Lei looked surprised, “But this is so expensive, and it’s meant for the captains. I couldn’t possibly.”
“We’re all the same here; there is no can or cannot.”
Shihua thrived on flattery from people like Yun Lei.
Only then did Yun Lei pick a piece of fruit and began to eat with measured grace.
“Were you on Captain Madison’s recent flight?”
Yun Lei confirmed with a nod, “Yes, Captain Shihua. But Captain
Madison is on leave these days, so our flight schedules have been lighter.”
“The fruit is sweet, you should try some too.”
Shihua declined with a smile, “If it’s sweet, you enjoy more of it.”
Suddenly, Yun Lei sighed.
“What’s wrong?”
She whispered, holding a napkin, “Just thinking about something. We all get treated the same, yet some are generous, others miserly. It seems like one’s vision is indeed innate. Take you, for example, Captain Shihua.”
Shihua raised an eyebrow, “Oh? Who do you think is stingy?”
Yun Lei pressed her lips together, merely shaking her head.
“Captain Madison?” Shihua’s eyes twinkled with amusement.
Yun Lei waved her hands in denial, “I didn’t say that, Captain Shihua.”
“I understand.”
Shihua, chuckling, “I’m discreet, and I don’t care for gossip. But since Captain Madison is younger, as her senior, it’s my duty to guide her. If you notice anything amiss, tell me. I’ll help her improve subtly. After all, we are colleagues and should help each other.”
“Of course!” Yun Lei’s smile was particularly sweet.
“I’ll leave you to rest now, I have things to do.”
“Okay.”
Leaving the lounge, Yun Lei’s smile faded slightly.
She had thought Shihua was quite a formidable character, but she turned out to be just another person who loved flattery. And she wasn’t even as attractive as Madison could Chairman Jiang really
be into her?
Yun Lei had her doubts.
But to seduce the big boss, she couldn’t let this opportunity slip by, so she had to cozy up to Shihua first.
Yun Lei wasn’t the only one with such intentions – many Mukino Airlines stewardesses harbored princess dreams, resulting in Shihua being inundated with their presence that afternoon.
The table was almost buried under the gifts they brought.
Scanning the array, Shihua found nothing particularly appealing, though it was all usable.
She settled back in her chair, spinning slightly.
So this is what it’s like to be the wife of the Chairman – utterly comfortable, she mused.
It wasn’t just that. Even her evening flight received priority from the
control tower.
“Safe travels, Captain Shihua.”
Shihua returned the sentiment with a faint smile, “Thank you.”
No sooner had Shihua’s plane departed than a buzz swept through Mukino Airlines.
