Chapter 0101
Could something go wrong?
If something happened, how would they explain to the Chairman of Mukino International?
Brian was in the back, clutching his chest. He was terrified that his heart would give out from anxiety.
At 9:46 a.m. Slandon time, the tranquil coastal surface was disrupted, stirring up waves upon waves.
Gusts of wind surged in all directions, forcing everyone to squint against the onslaught.
Old Gao and the military flight instructor Zeng Cheng, both holding binoculars, were intently observing a fighter jet that was diving towards the sea about one hundred fifty meters away.
Through their headsets, the voice of a nearby monitoring system technician counted down the altitude: “100 meters, 80 meters, 75
meters…”
“55 meters, 40 meters, 25 meters…”
As the jet drew nearer to the sea surface, people instinctively stepped
back.
Given the velocity, gravity, and momentum, a crash would result in an immediate explosion.
Everyone close enough would be affected by the blast.
“15 meters, 10 meters…”.
Suddenly, Brian yelled out in alarm, “Madison, take off! Take off now!!!”
Even seasoned military pilots wouldn’t dare flirt with altitudes below
ten meters.
Although Brian knew about Madison’s legendary grandfather, that was her grandfather, not her.
Charlie’s eyes were tight with tension, his gaze fixed ahead.
Zuo Yulei hid at the back, breathing rapidly as she stared above the
sea.
Everyone involuntarily held their breath as they followed the jet’s dive.
In the monitoring system, the technician’s voice shook, “5 meters, 3
meters…’
“Ah!!!”
To the observers, it seemed the aircraft had no chance of recovery, and pilots who had never attempted such training shouted in fear.
“2.8 meters!”
With the technician’s shout, the jet, which seemed like a fallen kite. plummeting to the sea, suddenly twisted around at the very moment its propeller nearly touched the water-
“Whooosh, whooosh, whooosh, whooosh-”
The sound of the propeller roared in their ears.
A powerful current of air was pulled along with it.
The jet, once nosediving to its doom, miraculously flipped, its propellers churning a swath of sea into mist.
Like a leaping fish, it turned sharply upward, soaring swiftly toward the blue expanse overhead!
As the aircraft shot back into the sky, Brian stomped his feet in

excitement: “She did it! She did it!!!”
The crowd was too shocked to react, staring at the jet as it regained altitude.
When it hovered at a certain height, it became one with the birds, the waves, the sea, and the dark clouds above.
Drones capturing the training recorded the entire process, witnessing her successful maneuver.
At that moment, an era belonging to someone named Madison had begun.
What defines a genius?
Old Gao put down his binoculars, looking up at the jet, “She is a genius.”
Inside the jet.
No one knew that Madison was drenched in sweat, drops trickling down her delicate cheeks, beads of perspiration staining her clothing.
At the moment of the dive, facing the imminent sea, she felt she had brushed against death’s embrace.
Even she was unsure of her success or the exact distance she could control.
All she could do was to adjust her state of mind and execute every step her grandfather taught her as perfectly as possible.
Meng Yachen’s granddaughter could not be a failure.
She would not allow herself to tarnish her grandfather’s name.
When she saw the crowd below start to applaud, Madison let go of the nerve-wracking tension and the fear, and tears of relief streamed down her face.
They mixed with her sweat, seeping back into her body, finding the resilient and powerful soul within her and merging with it.
The jet landed safely.
Before stepping out, Madison wiped her sweat and tears away, walking calmly toward the crowd.
Her eyes immediately found Zuo Yulei, her face pale and blank.
The crowd stayed silent at this moment, not daring to speak.
Madison, not short in stature, wore her flight suit with.
professionalism, the jet’s propeller still spinning slowly behind her.
The sea breeze rolled in, dark clouds pressing down.
With a slight rasp of triumph in her voice, she said, “I graduated from the top flight academy, now serving Mukino Airlines.”
She handed her headset to an assistant nearby, her voice carried by
the wind in all directions:
“My name is Madison.”
So, do you concede? This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
That silent challenge was felt by Zuo Yulei.
Now, to win a spot in the four-person team, she would need to
complete the simulated stall.
More than that, she had to do it at an altitude lower than Madison’s
2.8 meters.
The record for the best actual combat was only 2.1 meters!
Where did this woman come from?
Why had they never heard of her before?
Seeing Zuo Yulei remain silent, Charlie was the first to start clapping, prompting all other Mukino Airline pilots to join in.
“Madison, you are truly outstanding!” Brian patted her shoulder, his eyes brimming with tears.
Charlie said nothing, just quietly watched her.
The rest of the Mukino Airline captains celebrated her exceptional performance.
Old Gao spoke at the right time, “It’s about to rain. We won’t be able to train today. Everyone, go back, relax, and we’ll return tomorrow.”
After such a long autumn, rain was still a possibility.
Rain by the seaside was normal.
In truth, Old Gao wanted to give Madison a break to recover. After a display like today’s, even the most seasoned military pilots would be shaken, let alone such a young woman.
Hence, he granted them a day off.
In the car leaving the site, Madison chatted with the other pilots as if nothing had happened, appearing relaxed and normal.
Upon reaching the company’s door, she took a taxi back to Mu Lake Wonders by herself.
The moment she closed the door behind her, she leaned against it, breathing heavily.
All the fear and panic she had been holding back surged forth-a heart -pounding escape from death’s doorstep.
She closed her eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
A hand suddenly appeared above her.
Madison’s eyes flew open in shock, “You…”
“Aren’t you at the company?”
Ethan, dressed impeccably in a suit, looked distinguished and
handsome.
He bent down, lifting Madison by her arms, and in one swift motion, swept her up into his embrace.
Following the inertia of the moment, Madison wrapped her legs around his waist without thinking.
Her emotions still unsettled, she clung to Ethan’s neck like a scared cat seeking comfort.
“Ethan, I almost died just now…”
