[Life is only 30,000 days long,]

[30,000 sunrises and sunsets.]

[When your dream finally comes true,]

[that moment]

[stays with you forever.]

[For me,]

[it was the rush]

[of taking to the sky]

[for the first time.]

Instructor, Captain Fan,

we're gonna head back.

See you, Captain.

Get some rest.

Will do.

Instructor,

Captain Yue.

Thanks.

Ruan Sixian?

You're all here?

Mr. Fu?

You came alone?

Yeah, just me.

The

inaugural flight's coming up,

so I stopped by to see how you're doing.

Let me fill you in, then.

The pilots have all been

doing pretty well lately.

Especially Sixian.

She just finished a sim session.

She did great.

Really?

Sounds like you're doing well.

I'm impressed.

You're in a good mood, Mr. Fu.

Yeah.

[I just wrapped up]

[something very important.]

[So I'm feeling pretty good.]

Well, flying planes is my job.

Mr. Fu,

why

don't you come try the sim

with us?

I think that's a great

idea.

Mr. Fu,

these full-flight simulators

are brand-new.

Once you're inside,

it feels just like

flying the real thing.

Wanna try?

Exactly.

Sixian can

take you through it.

She's steady on the controls.

Really?

No, I'm good.

Well,

I tried one

before we bought them.

Yeah. I've tried it.

It's about lunchtime.

Why don't we

all grab something to eat?

L-Lunch? I think I'll pass.

Your lunches are a little

too fancy for us, Mr. Fu.

The inaugural flight's coming up.

I'd better keep training.

What about you two?

We already ate.

Yeah.

Mr. Fu, are you...

If you need to

talk to Sixian,

we can push

the practice session back.

Right, Captain Fan?

Sure.

It's okay.

Training comes first.

We'll have plenty of chances.

Chances for what?

Well...

You guys get back to it.

Bai Yang!

[Ms. Zheng,]

[have you thought]

[about what we discussed?]

The shoot and post-production

were designed

as one package.

You hired me to shoot it,

and now someone else is doing post?

What's that supposed to mean?

Ms. Zheng, please hear me out.

I'm really sorry,

but that's what

the contract says.

[Our company]

[has final say over]

[how all the footage is]

[edited and used.]

Fine.

Have it your way.

I've never seen

anyone pull this crap.

And remember to pay me the balance.

Hey.

Where are you?

This was

the most

humiliating shoot I've ever done.

They treated me like some disposable tool.

Needed when I'm useful,

tossed aside

when I'm not.

He was actually

pretty cute as a kid.

How did he grow up

to be such a jerk?

He's always

been unreliable.

That's not even the worst part.

He's got no morals

and no decency.

Only you

think there's still hope for him.

Can't you at least take

this workout seriously?

Still wearing an earpiece?

Is that glued on?

I had a meeting today.

You called,

so I came out to keep you company.

Now I

have to join it online.

Oh,

I'm sorry.

You're always the first

person I call.

I forgot

you're a big-shot executive now.

Sorry to bother you.

You're not

bothering me at all.

I've been dying

to complain about Fu Mingyu.

But Zhu Dong always ends up

taking his side.

Now that you're back,

I've finally

got someone

on my team.

Anytime you want to complain

about him, I'm in.

That's good.

Then

let's go climb.

Seriously? How old are you?

That's for kids.

Come on!

She hasn't changed a bit.

Still as excitable as ever.

Good luck on the inaugural flight.

Good luck on the inaugural.

- Captain Yue. - Sir.

Good to see you.

Congratulations.

Hello, Captain Yue,

Captain Fan.

Hello, sir.

Hope you have a safe and successful

inaugural flight.

We've got this.

Sixian?

I'm here!

Time to go.

Coming!

Ms. Ruan,

let's go out

for a drink tonight.

Mr. Yan,

I'm on the inaugural flight tomorrow.

I can't drink.

Right, right.

No drinking.

And

don't pick me up from work again.

People will start talking.

[Let's book somewhere nice tomorrow]

[and celebrate Sixian.]

[Let's just do it at my place.]

[I've got everything we need.]

[Sounds good.]

You like this actor?

You know him too?

Of course.

He was huge when we were in high school.

What was that show

called again?

Tennis Boy.

That's it.

Girls in our class

talked about those guys nonstop.

Drove me crazy.

Crazy?

You guys just didn't get it.

No, you don't get it.

The girls

kept saying

Fu Mingyu had

the same vibe

as the lead.

Who?

It's...

Xiao Xunli.

More like Little Chestnut.

Xiao Xunli? Please.

And his name's Xiao Lixun.

Little Chestnut? That's kinda cute.

How are they alike?

They look nothing alike.

Were they all blind?

There he is.

Speak of the devil.

What did you just say?

Nothing.

[Do they look alike?]

[Not at all.]

[Their faces are totally different.]

[But Mr. Yan meant the vibe,]

[not the looks.]

[Stop it.]

[Him? Please.]

Have you been drinking?

No.

Then why are you blushing?

Do I have to

be drunk to blush?

Maybe I just came from a club

and I'm still hyped.

You're on tomorrow's inaugural.

You know exactly

how serious it would be

to drink the night before.

I said I didn't drink.

Ruan Sixian.

Yes, Mr. Fu?

First,

Yan An is tied to Bo'ao Airways.

Getting too close to him

isn't a good idea.

Mr. Fu,

are you following me?

Second,

Yan An's a player.

He changes girlfriends like shirts.

You should think twice about it.

What about you, Mr. Fu?

Are you a player?

Don't compare me to him.

Spain was great.

The food, not so much.

Yue Yang,

this trip to Spain must've

cost you a lot, right?

Why?

I mean

maybe we should split it.

I'm good,

as long as you had fun.

But

if you really want to thank me,

buy me a nice dinner

tonight.

That's all you want?

I haven't eaten well these days either.

Let me check.

[Send the money.]

[Or I'm coming to your office.]

Come on.

Well...

Maybe you should head home first.

Why?

I just suddenly feel

a little tired.

You were fine a second ago.

If anyone's tired lately,

it should be me.

That's not what I meant.

Then what do you mean?

How about this?

I promise I'll

take you out for the best

hot pot tomorrow,

okay?

Fine.

Tomorrow, then.

Okay, I'm going.

Get some rest.

I'll wait till you're inside.

Text me when you get home.

Okay.

Bye.

[Ziyue,]

[you're his big sister.]

[You should]

[look out for your brother.]

He's your son,

not mine.

Why should I support him?

[You haven't sent the money this month.]

I send you

money every month.

I've just been busy and forgot

this month.

I have

my own life

and my own bills to pay too.

[Ziyue, I'm not well,]

[and your brother's out of work.]

[You need to think about this family.]

And who thinks

about me?

Am I even

your daughter?

[Jiang Ziyue, you ungrateful brat!]

[You make 2-30,000 yuan a month.]

[Who else should you be giving it to?]

Don't threaten me.

If you come to my office

and get me fired,

the whole family will starve.

[Good luck on the inaugural, Sixian.]

[Off to a flying start!]

["Captain" Ruan, safe takeoff]

[and landing, and a smooth]

[inaugural flight!]

Morning, Mr. Yan.

Starting work

here this early?

You're the one

who has to work.

Poor you.

Morning, Mr. Fu.

What are you doing here this early?

Obviously, I'm picking

Ms. Ruan up for work.

But seriously,

isn't Hengshi being too stingy?

You spent all that

money recruiting her,

and you can't even arrange a car service?

What if she can't get a ride

in the morning?

That's none of your concern.

Mr. Fu,

would it

be a problem if I dated one of

your employees?

How about this?

Let's work something out.

You've got

plenty of talent here.

Just let me have

Ms. Ruan.

Are you two even dating yet?

More than that.

We clicked

right away.

Really?

I think she's more

into me.

I'm more into you?

Mr. Fu,

that's funny.

No.

That's not what I meant.

Taking it back already?

Morning, Mr. Yan.

Morning.

This is getting interesting.

Here, let me.

What was that supposed to mean?

Careful.

Buckle up.

I don't know

what happened between you

and Fu Mingyu,

but I've never

seen anyone give him

that much attitude.

I have to say,

that felt great.

What happened between you two?

We're rivals, remember?

Your companies used to be one.

Now you compete

when you need to

and cooperate when it

suits you.

Everyone knows the two

chairmen still

play golf

and have tea

together from time to time.

Even Fu Mingyu

grew up

with you.

You guys never tell it like it is.

No wonder you're the top female pilot.

You really know everything.

Growing up,

I was always

at the bottom of the class,

both in grades

and behavior.

But my dad

was so strict.

I never dared

to do anything too wild.

So I never really

lived up to my reputation as

a spoiled rich kid.

But Fu Mingyu

was always different

from the rest of us.

His face fooled everyone,

and his grades were great too.

Teachers and classmates all liked him.

Annoying, right?

But here's the worst part.

I'd had a crush on a girl for two years

but never had the nerve to tell her.

Then one day, she came to me.

I thought, finally, my chance had come.

We were even

good friends for a month.

And then

she told me,

"Yan An,

can you introduce me"

to Fu Mingyu?"

I nearly lost it.

So, Ms. Ruan,

thank you.

For what?

For letting me

get one over on him today.

You really

made me look good.

Seeing you

in that uniform

just makes me wish

you'd joined our airline.

But I'm a generous man.

Wherever you work,

I wish you nothing

but success.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

I've got a surprise

for you at the airport.

What surprise?

You'll see when we get there.

How about this?

Impressive, huh?

Mr. Yan?

What brings you here?

[If chasing]

[your dream ever feels lonely,]

[let me be by your side.]

All right. See you.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

If you like them,

I can send you every day.

Did you guys hear?

The purser used to fly international routes.

She only

transferred over

right before the Z101 inaugural.

But I heard Liu from our division

was originally

down as purser.

No one beats her

when it comes to domestic routes.

Our job may look glamorous,

but we

deal with cosmic radiation,

noise, and jet lag.

An inaugural flight

like this

means media exposure.

A few

shots for the cameras,

make the news,

that's

a career highlight.

What a shame Liu

missed out.

That's just bad luck.

My instructor

is just as qualified.

Sure, Liu deserved it,

but she

got sick while she was on duty.

My instructor was asked to take over.

You can

feel sorry for Liu,

but don't drag my instructor

through the mud.

What are you talking about?

Nothing.

Just celebrity gossip.

What else would they talk about?

All right, enough.

This is no ordinary

flight.

Not all the seats are open to the public.

Most of the passengers were invited.

Besides traditional media,

we'll also have

online content creators on board.

Mr. Fu

happens to be

on this flight, too.

He's traveling to Lincheng on business.

So

stay sharp, all of you.

Understood?

Yes!

I'm Yue Yang, captain for today's flight.

I think you all know

Captain Fan Lei and me.

Let's have the other two

introduce themselves.

I'm Lu Hua, today's

first officer.

Hi,

I'm the trainee pilot,

Ruan Sixian.

If you

hadn't quit on impulse back then,

you'd be a purser by now.

Maybe

even in management.

We should get together sometime.

I've got plenty of time.

Is there a waitress

here named Ruan Sixian?

Yeah. Why?

Is there

something on my face?

No.

You're pretty.

All right.

Just a few

final points.

First, the media will be covering

today's flight, so be prepared.

Second,

we may get some turbulence.

The OFP shows a turbulence

index of five.

If it gets bumpy,

watch the seat belt sign

for my cue.

For fires

or other emergencies,

security responds first, reports after.

That's all from me.

Purser,

are you feeling okay?

I'm fine.

Um...

I'll just add two things.

Use 30% cold water, 70% hot.

Check the temperature.

Make sure it's not too hot.

And don't let

passengers switch seats

on their own.

It could throw off the balance.

Captain Yue,

anything else?

No.

Anyone else?

Then let's have a safe, smooth

inaugural.

Okay. Let's head over.

Sixian!

Sixian!

Peng?

This...

Don't get the wrong idea.

They're from Mr. Yan.

I saw them outside,

so I brought them in.

If you like them,

I can send you every day.

Take it.

I...

I thought it was a flower basket.

Yeah.

How do I even hold this?

Nowhere to grab it.

It's so heavy.

It is.

Got it?

Hold the bottom.

Good.

Don't move.

Sixian,

stay still.

It's so heavy.

Easy, easy.

Here,

let me.

Okay.

Let go.

Just let go.

I've got it.

[The Z101 is]

[a homegrown short-to-medium-haul airliner]

[developed to]

[international standards.]

[As an aviation fan,]

[getting to be on its inaugural flight]

[is a rare opportunity.]

[Today, we're flying]

[Hengshi's Z101]

[ to Lincheng.]

[Later,]

[the crew will show us]

[what the Z101]

[has to offer.]

[This trip is totally worth it.]

When Mr. Fu gets here...

Once this hits the news,

my old coworkers are gonna...

Mr. Fu.

Mr. Fu.

Welcome aboard, Mr. Fu.

Welcome aboard, Mr. Fu.

Thanks, everyone.

Welcome aboard, buddy.

This

is your seat.

Okay.

- Let me know - Thank you.

if you need anything.

Bai Yang.

Mr. Fu?

I have a very serious

question.

Sure.

Ever made it up to a woman?

W-What?

Sir, I'll show you to your seat.

Here you are, sir.

I said,

have you made it up to a woman?

W-What?

C-Could you speak up?

Check your phone.

Have you ever made it up to a woman?

Okay, got it.

Mr. Fu.

Mr. Fu.

What now?

Come out first.

Mr. Fu,

in such a rush?

Weak bladder?

- Be careful. - Watch out.

You'd better go now.

I need to get back.

Actually, I wanted

to apologize.

Mr. Fu,

you'd

better hurry.

Turbulence is coming,

and the lavatory may be off-limits.

And

be careful.

She really won't budge.

Mr. Fu.

Cheers.

First of all,

that felt good.

Go on.

When Sixian

left Hengshi,

everyone was talking behind her back.

I was so mad

I wanted to go fight them.

And now

her face is

all over Hengshi.

Now that's

an awesome comeback!

Feels damn good.

Speech over.

All right, eat.

The meat's overcooked.

It's your

big inaugural today.

Why are you so calm?

Yeah.

Three generations of female pilots together.

You're

already trending.

Your face is all over

the airport screens.

Aren't you happy?

Did something

happen?

Nothing.

I just finally

got what I wanted.

That's your "dream come true" face?

You should

see yourself.

I've imagined

this day a thousand times.

I thought

it'd be the most

exciting

day of my life.

But once

I was actually up there

in the observer seat,

I realized

I just wanted more.

I kept wondering

when I'd finally

be a real first officer,

then a captain.

I just keep dreaming bigger.

Am I

getting too greedy?

That's not greedy.

Dreams

are supposed to be big.

Who says women

can't be ambitious?

A little ambition is what makes

life exciting.

Yeah,

Xuan's right.

A toast

to the two biggest

backers of my dream.

Without

Xuan funding me,

my dream

would've died before flight school.

And thanks to Xiaozhen

who

kept me fed,

I didn't starve

before I even made it.

I don't have

much family left.

You two

are pretty much all

I've got.

Wait.

Why are you getting all sentimental?

Isn't she annoying?

Seriously.

Keep this up

and I'm gonna cry.

Then you'll owe me

for my makeup.

All right.

Here's to you two.

No, no need.

You're too kind.

- To you two. - Too kind.

To you.

No, no.

Too kind.

You're both big shots. I'm nobody.

All right.

Up. Come on.

Let me say something.

Today's

a special day

for all of us.

The past

brought us here.

We won't forget it,

but we won't dwell on it either.

So this one's

to the future.

May our days ahead

be bright,

and dreams within reach.

Bright days

and dreams within reach.

Cheers.

That's the new female pilot,

Ruan Sixian.

Seriously?

That's one hell of

a résumé.

She's

been impressive for years.

She was great as

a flight attendant too.

If she hadn't left,

she'd probably be a purser by now.

Then I just don't get it.

Why come back to Hengshi?

I heard a bunch of airlines

were after her.

Exactly.

And I've heard about

what happened before.

Isn't it awkward for her to be back?

Maybe

she still has a thing for Mr. Fu.

Well, that would

explain everything.

Explain what?

Can we talk

about an accomplished woman

without turning it

into gossip?

I think

rumors

don't come from nowhere.

If there are

this many details,

there's probably some truth to it.

How do you know

they're not spreading

rumors on purpose?

People wouldn't talk

if there was nothing to it.

Exactly.

If you're so curious,

why not ask me to my face?

I'm easy to talk to.

Ask me anything,

and I'll tell you.

As for why I came back,

feel free

to go ask Mr. Fu

yourself.

Mr. Fu,

Huguang Residence?

What time is it?

9:15 PM.

Take me to Mingchen.

One more thing.

Your phone was off

during the meeting this morning.

Mrs. Fu called and said

you haven't been home in a long time.

It's too late tonight.

I'll go tomorrow.

Okay.

Pull over here.

Bai Yang,

take my luggage

upstairs for me in a bit.

Sure.

You just got back?

Are you two even dating yet?

More than that.

Really?

I think she's more

into me.

Maybe

she still has a thing for Mr. Fu.

Well, that would

explain everything.

Now I see

where

your staff get it from.

What do you mean?

Let me help.

I've got it.

Ruan Si...

Listen.

Touch me again,

and even if you're my boss,

I'll report you for sexual harassment.

Touch you?

Sexual harassment?

Ruan Sixian,

what do I have to do

to make it up to you?

Are you done?

Then burn

that question into your brain.

Back to Huguang.

What?

I'm going home.

Let's go.
