Translator: 549690339

After flying with his father, Father Yu didn’t bring up the topic of asking him to stay at the company, but there was a sense of unexplained resonance between father and son.

Once they landed safely, Father Yu removed his helmet.

“I truly love this blue sky. Even though I’ve had moments of hesitation, as long as I can soar in the sky and protect our airspace, my heart is filled with strength. I am too old now, past the age for flying. Otherwise, I genuinely want to take you for a flight, to let you see what an incredible experience you’re giving up!”

“You… agreed?” From his father’s words, Yu Mingyi gathered that he agreed with his decision to resign?

Where did this sunlight suddenly come from?

“You’re all grown up, possessing your own thoughts. What I consider the best, you may disregard…” Father Yu looked up at the blue sky with affection. How beautiful! This was the best picture through his eyes.

Yu Mingyi’s nose felt a little sour.

At this moment, he realized that his father’s feelings for him weren’t forced but genuine. His father truly wanted to share the best things in the world with them.

“You still have a few years until the retirement age. If you truly can’t continue and genuinely hate flying, I’ll arrange for your transfer to a groundskeeper role. Once you’ve reached the mandatory years of service, you can choose whether to stay or leave. I won’t force you.”

“Dad?” Yu Mingyi didn’t expect his father to say this.

“I’m heartbroken that someone groomed by the unit with such investment would make this decision. But if your body genuinely can’t fly anymore, to protect you and also the unit’s property, we respect your decision.”

As his father left, Yu Mingyi called out to him.

“Then, as a father, how would you view this issue?”

Father Yu tossed him the helmet.

“As long as you’re happy.”

At that moment, the sunlight shone on his father’s head. His grey hair was clearly visible. Yu Mingyi saw his father against the light. He always used to look up at him when he was young. Only now did he realize his father was actually shorter than him, and he was gradually aging.

Upon hearing his father say ‘as long as you’re happy’, Yu Mingyi’s eyes turned somewhat red.

Father Yu went over and patted his shoulder. “I feel pleased to have taken a ride on the plane you piloted before you made your final decision. You are among the best pilots I have ever seen. No matter what choice you make… Son, I am proud of you… Damn it, Xiao Qian has got me talking cheesy.”

Father Yu awkwardly looked away, not wanting to see his son’s touched expression.

“But I’m warning you, you stinky brat, whether you change posts or resign is your decision. However, if you slack off in your new role and disgrace the family’s nurturing, I will still punish you. No matter how old you are, you are still my son!”

The last sentence was so quiet that Yu Mingyi almost thought he misheard.

His father’s figure was already far away.

Yu Mingyi stood at the airport, watching the planes take off and land, gazing at the long contrails left by planes in the azure blue sky.

The words of his father and Dong Yi echoed alternately in his ears. His father asked, do you really dislike the blue sky, do you really hate being a proud pilot…

Dong Yi said, the image of him saving someone always appearing in her dreams.

The joy he felt when he told his father that he wanted to become a pilot as a child and was lifted on top of his father’s head, the excitement from his first flight, and the sense of purpose from participating in the rescue mission all blended into one. His heart was replaced by impulse.

Looking at the blue sky and the airplanes not far away, that oppressive feeling vanished, replaced by anticipation, passion, a reawakened sense of honor and desire spreading through his heart. Yu Mingyi murmured to himself,

“I… want to try again…”

In the hospital, Mother Yu had already left. Xiao Qian was accompanying Dong Yi.

“Boss Qian, why do you think my uncle hates flying so much? Is there… really no other way out?” she asked.

“A certain emotion in a certain period of a person’s life may just be hard to overcome. We often refer to it as getting into a rut. Almost everyone experiences this. Some can come to terms with it, while some may never be able to. In reality, how many people in the world understand what they truly love?”

“I really hope he can overcome this difficulty because I have a faint feeling in my heart that he might not be without affection for the blue sky.” The image of Yu Mingyi descending from the plane in Dong Yi’s dreams made him seem like a favored son of heaven, etching into her heart.

“I guess Uncle must have some strategies, no amount of preaching from psychologists is of use, compared to a warm-hearted phrase from a relative. Sometimes I can’t understand why—”

Xiao Qian was interrupted by her ringing phone.

It was a text message from Yu Minglang.

Qianbao, have you had a meal? Are you busy with homework? I’m fine, no need for a reply.

Xiao Qian smiled.

He was probably using a break to send a quick text. Before the text was even finished, his break ended, and he had to turn off his phone. There wasn’t even time to correct typos.

Reply? Actually, no need for a reply, right?

She looked at the phone smiling while Dong Yi waited for her to finish her sentence.

“Boss Qian?”

“What I wanted to say is, sometimes I don’t understand why. Many times, the answers to life’s problems are as simple as a straightforward phrase from a loved one. It may seem easy to an outsider, but it could bring an immeasurable impact on the person involved.”

For instance, the typo-filled message sent by Yu Minglang appeared meaningless but brought her comfort upon reading it.

“Why are human hearts so complicated…” Dong Yi couldn’t understand. Many things remained a mystery no matter how she racked her brains.

“Yes, the human heart is the most intricate yet also the simplest thing. A random phrase could leave a person with a lifetime of suffering. However, a casual remark could unravel problems bottled up for years. We are still researching and learning about many diseases, which is intriguing.” Boss Qian looked immense, striving to study complicated diseases was her lifelong goal.

When Dong Yi was discharged from the hospital, Yu Mingyi came to pick her up. Upon reaching the school gate, Yu Mingyi told Dong Yi with some embarrassment,

“Dong Yi, I’ve decided to retract my resignation letter for now.”

“Did Grandpa disagree with it? Am I causing trouble for you? I will go apologize to Grandpa and ask him not to make things difficult for you.”

“No, it’s me—” It felt somewhat awkward talking about such matters with his younger kinsmen, but Yu Mingyi decided to speak his mind.

“I’m better now.”

“Huh?”

“That means that sense of dislike is gone. Anyway, after my leave is over, I will return to flying. You… don’t worry about me anymore.”

After flying with his father, Yu Mingyi spent several hours at the airport. That suffocating feeling vanished all of a sudden.

Seeing his sincere expression, Dong Yi gave a brilliant smile.

“As long as you’re happy.”

Yu Mingyi grinned back at her. This smile not only astounded Dong Yi but held her glued to the spot..
