Meng Xiaozhi Sugar Core

"Haha, Tang Xin is really worrying. You are not in a movie, there won't be so many accidents. What's more, I'm not afraid of anything where Tang Xin is." I looked at her lovingly.

Tang Xin leaned her head on my shoulder: "Xiao Meng always says these heart-touching words."

"Take a nap?" I leaned my head gently on hers and closed my eyes.

Half an hour later, the plane entered the taxiing state, and with the roar of the engine, the huge plane slowly rose up. It was just that moment of leaving the ground that made me feel a little uncomfortable.

Looking at Tang Xin who had fallen asleep beside me without knowing when, I smiled with relief. Oh, what am I worrying about? I have to face what I have to face sooner or later. Instead of worrying about gains and losses, I might as well cherish the present.

……

12 hours later.

The plane began to descend slowly. What was uncomfortable was that according to our biological clock, it was time to go to bed, but the sun was still shining outside the window.

Tang Xin fell asleep as soon as she got on the plane. She went to the toilet and ate something before falling asleep again. So she was in good spirits now. But I was in a worse situation. I didn't get much sleep because I couldn't adapt to the huge engine roar and the surrounding lighting. I had to adjust the blanket on Tang Xin from time to time, lift her hair, and wipe her saliva. In short, I didn't get a good rest.

Just at this moment, a strange sound came from the right window! After a few unusual vibrations, the noise suddenly became half as loud as before, and then the fuselage began to tilt slightly to the right.

My eyes twitched. How could such a thing happen? In theory, airplanes are the safest means of transportation for humans, but I never thought that I would experience such a thing in person. My palms began to sweat, and cold sweat broke out on my forehead. Based on my many years of simulated flight experience in my previous life, one of the engines should have stopped.

The cabin was already in turmoil, with passengers occasionally looking out the window, but the limited angle made it difficult to see what was happening. Passengers were running past the national highway, and everyone had an imperceptible anxiety on their faces.

"What's wrong?" Tang Xin woke up from her sleep, "Xiao Meng, your palms are so sweaty!"

"Yeah!" I nodded, staring at her, but I couldn't open my mouth and couldn't say a word.

"What's wrong? You look so bad?" Tang Xin gradually realized that something was wrong.

"It's okay..." I tried to comfort Tang Xin, and also comforted myself in my heart. It doesn't matter. The Boeing 747 has four engines, and it can still fly to its destination even if one engine is shut down.

After seeing everyone's panic and my reaction, Tang Xin probably understood what had happened and her expression began to become a little unnatural.

"Gentlemen and ladies, our plane has encountered a minor problem. Please stay in your seats and fasten your seat belts to avoid accidents caused by turbulence when encountering air currents." The flight attendant's voice was trembling.

However, the flight attendant's words immediately ignited the anxiety in the cabin, with curses and cries coming one after another.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I am your captain, Li Qiaoan. Our plane is currently experiencing a little trouble, but it will not affect our safe arrival at the destination. Please rest assured, I promise here that everyone will land safely."

After the captain's words, the cabin gradually calmed down, but faint sobbing sounds could still be heard occasionally.

"I'm sorry..." Tang Xin said to me.

"Don't apologize to me, you did nothing wrong." Tang Xin and I held hands again and didn't separate.

"Xiao Meng, don't be afraid. I will protect you." Tang Xin's voice trembled slightly, and I knew she was afraid.

I looked at her, holding back my tears, and smiled: "Don't worry about me, I will protect Tang Xin, and we will be fine."

However, the plane suddenly began to descend, and the rate of descent was not low. The atmosphere in the cabin became even more terrifying, and many women were screaming, mixed with crying.

"Xiao Meng, it's great to meet you in this life."

"Me too, I still have a lot to say to you. And there are many beautiful sights I want to see with you!" The burning tears could no longer be restrained in the eyes and flowed down like a spring.

"Don't cry. Xiaomeng will look ugly if you cry." Tang Xin reached out and helped me wipe my tears.

"I know... I don't want to cry, I want to take a good look at you." I tried hard to wipe away my tears, but I couldn't stop them. I didn't look like a man at all. On the contrary, Tang Xin looked much stronger with red eyes.

"Xiao Meng, do you believe in an afterlife?" Tang Xin looked at me seriously.

"Yeah, I believe it."

"If we can't get through this today, I told you, I firmly believe that we will still be lovers in the next life." Tang Xin hugged me gently, "Don't be afraid, I will always be with you."

I hugged her tightly: "Well... Tang Xin, I won't cry anymore."

After descending for a while, the plane gradually stabilized and the coastline appeared outside the window. It seemed that the plane was in good condition as the captain said. The descent just now was also prepared for an emergency landing.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please check your seat belts again and put away your small tables. The plane will land in half an hour. There may be slight shaking at that time. Please be prepared for prevention."

"Ding~" the seat belt indicator light came on and the plane began to descend again.

After calming down, I felt a little embarrassed. Because Tang Xin had shown me my most cowardly side, I cried like a baby in front of her. I should have comforted her, but she ended up comforting me instead, and she even said so many disgusting words.

The plane was getting lower and lower, and as the runway appeared, the landing gear landed steadily on the runway. With intense braking, the speed of the plane quickly decreased.

Until it stops sliding.

"Oh!!" The cabin was boiling with excitement, and everyone clapped and cheered. The joy of surviving the disaster almost made everyone shed tears of excitement.

Tang Xin was no exception. She threw herself into my arms and sobbed softly, "I thought I would never see you again."

It turns out that everything Tang Xin did just now was just a show for me to see...

"Tang Xin?"

"Ok?"

I lifted her head and kissed her.

After surviving the disaster, I still have you.

ps: Although single-engine failure of an aircraft is rare, it actually happens quite a few times every year around the world.

Chapter 71: Surviving the Disaster

The plane stopped and we began to evacuate. When we got off the plane from the escalator, we saw that there was a big hole in the right outermost engine, which was black and had traces of burning.

I was horrified by what I saw. It was probably because the turbofan blade of the plane broke and flew out, hitting the wing and causing a hole in the wing. But fortunately, the hydraulic system seemed to be working normally, and there was no major problem with the control of the plane. If the broken blade flew towards the crew cabin, the consequences would be disastrous.

After we took the airport bus to the terminal, Tang Xin and I gradually recovered. Our weak legs gradually regained strength, but we still supported each other and walked out of the terminal to the reception hall near the outside.

The reception hall was unusually busy, as if the media had known about the accident long beforehand, and they were waiting for passengers leaving the station with their guns, cannons, and microphones. The scene was so large that I was a little overwhelmed.

"Look over there!" Tang Xin had sharp eyes and saw a fat old man standing at the exit holding a Chinese sign. My name and Tang Xin's name were written on it.

"Let's go." I pulled Tang Xin and walked quickly towards the uncle. The uncle was a typical American fat man, with a beer belly that made his suit bulky, but his beard was shaved clean and his hair was combed neatly and shiny.

When we got in front of him, the man recognized us at a glance.

"Oh, Miss. You are here?" He was a little happy and hurried forward to help us carry the luggage.

"You speak Chinese so well?" Tang Xin was a little surprised.

"Thank you for the compliment, Miss. I have been in China with Song Zhirong for five years, so I am considered half an expert on China. Oh, by the way, you can just call me Thompson, or Brother Cruise." Thompson was very enthusiastic and started joking.

"Haha, Brother Tom doesn't care if you're fat." Tang Xin couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Miss, you can't judge a book by its cover," said Thomson aggrievedly.

"Pfft~" I couldn't help but laugh when I saw their interaction from the side.

"Do you feel better?" He led us out of the airport, to an executive sedan, opened the trunk, and put our luggage in.

"Much better?" Tang Xin was a little confused.

"When I saw the flight information just now, I almost jumped up." Thompson opened the car door for us and motioned for us to get in.

After getting in the car, he continued, "I called my boss right away, and he was also panicking. But luckily you landed safely without any danger. You must have been terrified on the plane, right?"

"Yeah, a little bit." I nodded. "Do aunt and Teacher Song know?"

"He probably doesn't know. My boss hasn't called China yet. He's afraid his sister can't accept the fact, so he's looking for information. As a result, you landed safely. Oh~ thank God!" Thomson suddenly seemed to think of something, took out a few candies from the glove box and gave them to us.

"Eat some candy, it can relieve anxiety~"

"Thank you~" Tang Xin was a little surprised, "This is really thoughtful."

"Well, can anyone who can hang out with your Uncle Song be of poor quality?" Thomson became proud and complacent.

At this time, my cell phone rang. Teacher Song gave Tang Xin and I an international roaming phone card, saying that it could still be used in the United States and that we could use this phone to contact them. We got off the plane and were busy chatting with Thomson, and indeed forgot to call back to report that we were safe.

Look, my aunt called me via video.

"Xiao Meng! Tang Xin! Did you have a safe journey?" On the other end of the phone, Teacher Song and my aunt were sitting on the bed together calling us.

Tang Xin and I looked at each other, our expressions were a little unnatural, but I quickly corrected them: "Well, everything went well. We are now in Thomson's car and are going to rest in the hotel that Uncle Song gave us. We will go to Tang Xin's house tomorrow."

"That's great." Auntie and Teacher Song didn't notice our strangeness and smiled happily. "Have fun then. We won't disturb you, will we?"

"Bye~" I waved at the screen, but the next scene made me laugh and cry. Teacher Song obviously jumped on my aunt before the call was hung up. It seemed that this was another anxious night of fighting.

"You are just like me, you only report good news to your family, not bad news." Thomson said with emotion, "Back then, I fled from the United States to Shanghai alone. I was unfamiliar with the place and even my Chinese was half-baked, which I learned in school. I started to make a living. As expected, within three months, I spent all the money I brought with me and didn't find a job."

"What can a foreigner who doesn't speak Chinese do?" Thomson rubbed his hair. "Then, I met your Uncle Song on the road. He saw me crying in a corner with a sad face, so he came over to find out what was going on."

"Huh, you're crying?" I asked in surprise.

"Yeah, I don't even have the money for the return flight. Besides, crying isn't just for you girls."

"Then you went to work in his company?" Tang Xin asked.

"It was more like relief than work. What could I do when I joined their company? I had to learn everything. Fortunately, in the second month, we encountered some troubles when clearing customs for a batch of goods. My sister happened to be familiar with this area in the United States, so I asked her to teach me how to solve the problem. My boss was so happy that I got a promotion. He said that this was his first time doing international trade and he needed talents like me. But obviously he overestimated me," Thomson said self-deprecatingly.

"So I went home and started studying Chinese and related professional content desperately. Fortunately, my brain worked well. After a few months, I was able to work normally."

"That's really inspiring." I exclaimed.

"We're here, ladies." While chatting, Thompson drove the car smoothly into the hotel.

As soon as I got off the car, I felt something was wrong! This hotel is too high-end! The design of the square outside the door is magnificent, with a huge fountain and a magnificent exterior wall, just like a palace.

"There's no need for such a high-end hotel." Tang Xin felt it was a bit extravagant.

"This is what my boss ordered for you. The money has already been paid. Besides, for me, this little money is nothing."

This is the first time in my life that I’m staying in a luxury hotel. I just got off the plane and I’m in the United States, hiding here.

After escorting us to the room, Thomson waved and said goodbye: "Take care of your jet lag. I'll pick you up at 9 a.m. tomorrow."

"Goodbye, Brother Cruise~" I said to him with a smile.

"Yeah~" He pointed at me with his index fingers and posed, "See ya, my princess."
