How it started

It was the day she could first walk. In this modern Chinese household, this was a cause of celebration.

'Look at her!' shouted her mother with excitement, 'My little Xin Rao has grown so much already!'

Her single mother, Xin Sho, was ecstatic because she had work 50 hours a week but this day off gave her a great memory to cherish.

Sho began searching for nearby schools Rao could go to in the next year and almost immediately found one suitable,well, it was the only one suitable.

While she was browsing, she found it.

'Hmmm, Su Ran Elementary. What kind of background does this school have?'

Intrigued,she read the description.

This elite school has room for 700 students and 67 classes with some vacant. People like Ghu So,a famous entrepreneur,Mai Kong,a famous designer, and Dr Zhou Shan used to be enrolled here for 4 years and above and made many friends here. To enter, you have to pass an exam according to your age and that will be the beginning of your national status. Don't miss this golden opportunity!

This was fantastic because while she was away at school, Sho could be working on expanding her small business to get a better background for themselves. Now, she just had to trust Rao.

Little did they know this would almost kill them for good....

9 months later, it was time for the entry exam.

'Mama, how wold am I?' asked Xin Rao

'Sweetie, your five, the line up is there, now go on and don't disappoint me!'

In the line, 2 eager little girls walked up to her and asked:

'Hewwo girl what your name?'

'My names Xin Wao how wabout you?' she replied.

The chubby girl was Ming Song and the smiley girl was Ming Xiao. Of course, they were siblings.

After the exam, it was announced that those 3 and alot of others had passed. They swore to be friends during school times. But sometimes you just can't escape frauds.

2 weeks later, it was the first day.

Their teacher was very kind and helpful was the great grandson of the founder. Mr Feng Su. Or just Mr Feng. Mr Feng wanted everyone to get along so the first thing the did was exchange names and a little bit about themselves. Then,the day was over. It was the first day after all, no need to stay for more than 2 hours. The younger ones only stayed for 45 minutes due to everyone wanting to sleep in their sleeping bags already.

When Rao got home, her mother had some amazing news.

'Mama, I thought you was at work?' said Rao

'Well they let me off for as long as I like and they gave me money to start my own business! Thats why having a good relationship with someone gives you benefits.' she answered.

With the money, Sho bought a location to start in and worked hard. It all payed off.

7 years later, a tragedy struck.
