Kill Me, Heal Me

Bonus: Deja-vu.

It’s so dark. Where am I?

“Hey, Ethan.”

Who are you?

“It doesn’t matter. We’ve been waiting for you.”

We?

“Yes, Ethan, and I want to thank you for taking care of her for so many years.”

Her?

Right, I’m coming to see her. It’s been too long.

“Don’t worry, Belle and I’ve spent enough time here, so we’re planning to leave. You coming?”

Belle...yes, that’s her name. She is leaving? I will follow her.

“Great, let’s go.”

...

So dazzling...

...

25 years later. Nowadays.

A floating vehicle draws an arc in the air and lands steadily on the green grass field of the base.

Two young men jump out of it and chat with each other easily.

"Hey, did you hear that? The daughter of the Ye clan will hold the adult ceremony tomorrow. I heard that our leader has received two invitations. I don't know which lucky person can get the invitation. "Randy Nie speaks in an envious tone.

"Really?"His friend, Sean Li, is obviously surprised, "only two for the entire crew?"

"Why should I lie to you. I think we can fight for it. Isn't our captain on a trip to Mars recently? Without him, our biggest competitor, we might have a chance to get the invitation!"

They look at each other and rush to Deputy Commander's office.

Jianyun Fleet, which is directly managed by the government, is the top fleet of C Country and located in the center of J city. Randy and Sean were both pilots of the fleet, and they were all elites selected by the national and even the world's airline schools. They are assigned with heavy responsibilities after hard training.

Both young men were born in high-ranking families of C Country. They’ve taken over the elite training of their families since childhood and become the most potential pilot at a young age.

They thought that even if they may not be able to get the invitation from the chief Deputy Commander, they would still be able to make an alternative list.

Unexpectedly, the Deputy Commander sitting in the office shakes his head decisively when he hears their intention.

Then he refuses ruthlessly, "you two are not qualified.”

"Why?" Randy is unconvinced, "Sir, maybe Sean is not qualified, but why am I not, too? Am I not handsome enough or not rich enough?"

Sean rolls his eyes, "you’re ugly enough, but to be honest, sir, I just won a pure gold medal this time. In terms of qualifications, whether it’s age or contribution potential, I'm the best in the crew, right?"

"The hell! I'm the youngest and most promising person, and..."

The chief is impatient with their quarrel, "it's our captain."

Randy and Sean are both shocked.

what?

Captain??

Do they hear it wrong???

"Sir, didn't our captain go to Mars on a mission?" Asks Randy as he scratches his head.

"That's right. But Ryan said he would be back soon, so the invitation..."

"No, how far is Mars from the earth? Captain won't come back in time, right? For the banquet of the Ye family will be held tomorrow."

"Captain said he would come back as soon as possible..." Deputy Commander shrugs.

Randy and Sean look at each other before saying at the same time, "but there is a total of two invitations."

Deputy Commander rubs his forehead and sighs, "he would take a friend..."

Damn it!

Finally, Randy and Sean leave the commander's office with dissatisfaction.

To be honest, if the Deputy Commander hasn't sworn that he didn't lie, they would never believe that Captain Du has taken the opportunity to see Miss Ye.

How can it be possible?

The commander of Jianyun Fleet, their captain, Ryan Du, is the youngest fleet captain of the C Country in history. He is also the only one who went to explore the outer planet and returned successfully. Because of his distinguished family and outstanding ability, Ryan was promoted to colonel when he was twenty years old, making countless contributions to C Country.

But these are not the focus of Randy and Sean.

Ryan's appearance doesn't match his position and personality. He looks like a gentleman rather than a tough man who has grown up in the army.

Such a man is known for his fatal attraction to women.

However, it doesn't make any difference.

He is gay!

Although he has repeatedly declared that he is straight, and there is no too intimate behavior between him and his male colleagues and friends. However, when he faces the crazy pursuit of women all over the world, he just smiles and refuses resolutely! Moreover, he insists on being single for twenty-eight years.

So gay!

At the thought of this, Randy wants to question Ryan right away. Doesn't he have no interest in women? How can he take all the two invitation letters of the Ye family as his own?

Sean hesitates for a while before speaking up, "actually, I don't believe captain is gay."

“Huh?”Randy asks, "how do you know?"

"two years ago, when I confessed my love to him, he refused. Captain said that he didn't like men, and that broke my heart..."

Randy steps back silently and keeps a distance from him.

...

The next day, in the Ye family's ceremony.

The Ye family's mansion is far away from the city center. On a broad green grass in the suburb of J City, there are many tall buildings, large and small. This is the Ye family's domain.

As a century-old family in C Country, the Ye family has been one of the two richest families. In the past hundred years, the Ye family spent all their property during the turmoil. They threw themselves into the army to defend their country and could be called the backbone of their country.

Therefore, after the turmoil in the world, and the further development of C Country, the status of the Ye family has risen greatly, becoming the top of the four families in C Country.

And today's well-known banquet is specially held for the little princess of the Ye family who is about to turn eighteen.

After the marriage of Cable, the head of the Ye family, and Lan, his wife, they have been affectionate and gave birth to a baby girl named Belle, and a boy called Nathan.

Belle Ye. The main character of today’s ceremony.

The first fifteen years of the girl were well protected by her parents and no one knew the details of her. Her parents didn't allow her to be on camera, nor did they allow her to show up.

It was not until her fifteenth birthday that Belle showed up in public for the first time. It was shocking that Belle became famous overnight and became the Pearl of the whole C Country.

If beauty is a woman's weapon, then Belle masters it.

Unfortunately, this young princess keeps a low profile, and no one knows where she hides all year round.

It’s said that the leader of the Ye family intends to give his daughter the position of the master as a gift at her adult ceremony. Although the rumor is fake, it still causes a great uproar.

If the position of the leader of the Ye family falls into the hands of an eighteen-year-old girl, it will be unimaginable.

Incredible!

However, thirty minutes before the banquet, the maid rushes into the master's study. Not long after, Cable strides out with a darkened face and rushes into his daughter's bedroom.

There is no one in the well-decorated bedroom but a letter on the desk. Cable opens the envelope and almost passes out with anger.

The mischievous daughter of his ran away with his youngest son!

Cable almost spits out a mouthful of blood.

...

In space, a ship is flying at an incredible speed. Its speed is so fast that the speed measuring needle on the instrument keeps swaying, and the monitor keeps reminding of over speeding.

Yet still, the man who is driving the ship doesn't slow down but speeds up instead.

“Oh, I get it, you want to crush here and get both of us killed.” Speaks a handsome man with a cold face in the co-pilot seat.

"No, if the famous genius, Ethan Mo, dies here with me, that will be an immeasurable lose for both the scientific and military construction of our country."

Hearing the pleasant voice, Ethan just rolls his eyes, “oh, just stop bragging yourself and be focused, Captain Ryan.”

After saying so, Ethan sighs slightly. He should have stayed on Mars and supervised until the colony is done.

Actually, when his friend, Ryan Du, finished the protecting mission on Mars and came to him with booze, he knew this man was up to something. As expected, Ryan kept talking about how beautiful the lady of the Ye family and how rare the chance was to see her in person.

Well, that got him here and leaving all the work behind on Mars.

In the pilot’s seat, Ryan’s slender fingers keep moving on the operating table so fast that Ethan can’t even see clearly his movements. The buttons that are used to control the ship has reached good cooperation under his fingertips.

It’s almost earth.

Ryan looks down at his watch. The party is about to begin in ten minutes. It is impossible to reach the Ye family in ten minutes.

No way!

He has to speed up!

...

Belle jumps off the floating vehicle, stretches out her arms, and takes a deep breath of fresh air—

Ah!

The smell of freedom!

She is wearing a tight black uniform, which outlines her good figure. She deliberately puts on heavy make-up, a wide brim cap, and a pair of black sunglasses, so it’s difficult to recognize her identity.

Awesome!

She doesn’t run away temporarily, but she has planned for a long time. Especially after she knows that her father intends to give up his position and leaves the huge Ye family to her as a burden, she has made up her mind to run away from home no matter what.

She is only eighteen years old, right?

She doesn’t want to become a housekeeper at such a wonderful age!

What’s more, the responsibility of running the Ye family should be Nathan’s, but not hers!

That’s right! She needs freedom!

“Belle, you know dad’s going to find us, right.” The little boy of twelve years old steps out of the car as well and his words quenches her enthusiasm at once.

That’s Nathan, Belle’s twelve-year-old brother, premature and thus a little bit annoying.

“Alright, alright, don’t make me regret taking you out, Nathan.” Belle rolls her eyes.

“Fine, I’ll shush.” Nathan shrugs.

“That’s the attitude! Now, let’s go! To the base of space ships! Haha!” Laughs Belle.

That’s right. Her goal is to conquer the boundless space but not to protect the property of the Ye family!

But a harsh scream interrupts her. A huge, black thing on fire flashes in front of her eyes, making a noise. In the blink of an eye, a huge pit is smashed on the ground, which frightens Belle and Nathan to hide behind the car in a hurry.

Two figures roll out of the large pit filled with dust.

“...whoa, you failed, I’m still alive.” Sneers the tall and cold one.

“Ahem, alright, I’m sorry, but at least we made it, right?” The slender one scratches his head and can’t help chuckling a little.

Belle, who comes out with Nathan, looks at the half-crushed ship and understands what is going on.

“Rookies.” She thinks these two are some kind of rookie pilots who crushes the ship.

After losing her interests, She holds Nathan and is going to leave.

"Honestly, that lady of the Ye family really worth risking your as well as mine? Is the ceremony of the Ye family really so important? Important than the construction of Mars? Have you ever thought of the consequences if we really die here? Our lives are no big deals, fine, but just think of how many delays there will be on Mars! You’re not a child anymore, Captain Ryan! "

"Come on, we’re not on the ship, just call me by name, Ethan.” Feeling the glare of the man, Ryan adds in a hurry, “I mean, Professor Ethan.”

Hearing their conversation, Nathan pulled Belle by her clothes slightly, “Belle, they are talking about you.”

Belle hears it, too, but that has nothing to do with her. Just when she is about to get into the car, a man behind calls out.

"Miss, please wait."

She quickens her movements.

"That miss over there with long hair and a black hat and uniform who was listening to our conversation. Please wait for a moment."

The corner of Belle’s mouth twitched a little and she turns around, "I didn't-"

And then she was stunned. Ten steps away, two handsome young men are looking at her, one smiling and the other indifferent.

She opens her mouth. For a moment, she feels as if her eyes are dazzled.

"Ahem, I didn't hear you on purpose. I just happened to pass by." Explains she.

“Yeah, I know.” The smiling man comes over.

“Then why do you stop me?” Says Belle as she pulls Nathan behind her.

“Whoa, calm down. Here, that’s yours, right?” He points at the ground.

Belle looks down. It’s her necklace that just dropped in the dust. She bents over but a pair of army boots comes into her sight and that necklace is picked up.

“Here you go.” The smiling man hands it to her carefully with both hands.

The other man comes over as well and speaks to the smiling man, “aren’t you going to the ceremony of the Ye family? Well, let’s go! I have to hurry back to Mars after all this.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll send you back for sure, ” the smiling man then reaching out to Belle, “nice meeting you, miss, I’m Ryan, and this is Ethan. Can we know your name?”

I’m Ryan, and this is Ethan.

Ryan and Ethan...

Ryan...Ethan...

These two names keep echoing in Belle’s head, and like a key, it opens some dust-laden memories.

She freezes.

“Miss?” Asks Ryan, “you okay?”

“Oh,” Belle comes back to senses and blinks her eyes a little, “I’m fine.”

“You sure, Belle? Shall we go back home?” Asks Nathan. NôvelDrama.Org owns this.

“No, don’t worry, it’s just deja-vu.” Smiles Belle.

“Maybe not,” Ryan looks at Belle, “maybe we’ve met before in the other life.”

Ethan, who is standing aside, rolls his eyes again, “cliche.”

Well, who knows.
