(Adapted from the novel on JJWXC, "Landing on My Heart", by Qiao Yao)

Xiao Ruan.

Wake up. It's time to eat.

Wake up. Come and eat.

Ruan Ruan, wake up.

Ruan Ruan, wake up.

Let's eat.

Did you not sleep well?

Go wash up first.

Wake up.

Wash up and eat.

What's wrong?

Don't cry.

I want to...

take you somewhere.

(Episode 24: Landing Right on My Heart)

Actually, what you did this morning...

was quite nice.

That wouldn't do.

It wasn't serious enough.

Nor was it formal enough.

Is it up ahead?

Just up ahead.

(Ruan Zheng Feng's grave)

(Ruan Zheng Feng's grave)

Dad, we're here to see you.

This is my boyfriend,

Fu Ming Yu.

Hello, Mr. Ruan.

To be precise,

I'm Si Xian's fiancé.

The unofficial one.

Looking at him,

he doesn't really look like...

a Chinese teacher.

He served in the army before.

He served in the army?

Then what kind of person was he?

My dad...

was very warm-hearted.

All the neighbors...

knew he had a good temper.

Ever since I can remember,

I've never seen him lose his temper with my mom.

And he was a great cook.

My mom...

loved his sweet and sour ribs.

Even though his salary wasn't high,

our family...

had them every Friday.

I can still remember...

the smell.

Looking at it that way,

your dad really doted on you and your mom.

They're right.

Girls...

are just closer to their dads.

But do you know?

In a family,

one parent usually plays the bad cop,

and the other plays the good cop.

Wasn't your mom...

the bad cop?

I used to mistakenly believe...

that my mom was materialistic...

and had an affair.

That's why she left my dad.

But I only realized recently...

that the man...

was actually my mom's manager.

My dad was very helpful back then.

He often gave the neighbors' kids extra lessons.

Some naughty kids...

broke my mom's plaster sculptures.

My dad was too embarrassed...

to say anything,

because he always felt that...

during his time as a volunteer teacher,

he relied on the neighbors' help.

Until one day,

a child...

tore up my mom's painting.

My dad just told my mom not to be angry.

The child didn't know any better,

and she could just paint it again.

Actually, those words...

were what triggered the breakdown of their relationship.

Maybe at that moment,

my mom realized that...

my dad only had respect for her.

For the rest of his life,

he could never understand her soul.

Yes.

As children,

it's very easy for us to see things...

from your dad's perspective.

But what about your mom?

Who truly understood her?

That's what I only realized...

when I looked back on the past.

But back then, how could I have understood that?

Even though my dad...

told me not to talk about her like that,

I still said...

so many hurtful things to her.

Mom...

was the woman Dad loved the most.

Maybe those words...

hurt him as well.

Then schedule everything...

for tomorrow.

I'm hanging up.

If you're busy,

go ahead and do your work.

It's not important.

Let me take you somewhere.

Come.

Where is this?

The back door of an art gallery.

What are we doing here?

We want to turn W.T Airport...

into an artistic landmark.

So I brought you here to pick some art.

Did you ever fantasize as a kid...

about being locked inside a department store...

after it's closed?

Not really.

I did.

And then,

I would become the owner of the department store.

I'd eat all the snacks...

my mom wouldn't let me have.

This one is quite interesting.

It's so expensive!

My goodness.

Tell me,

why didn't I inherit...

my mom's artistic genes?

If I had pursued art too,

I'd probably be financially independent by now.

Not everyone who studies art...

can sell their work for this much.

Actually, many artists...

work very hard...

for most of their lives,

yet their work...

might not be accepted by the world.

Some of them choose to further their studies abroad,

but most of them...

still end up...

living in basements...

or washing dishes.

That's true.

In every industry,

it's not easy to succeed just like that.

Why are these paintings...

all missing a patch of color?

How about...

you give me one?

I'll take it home and color it for fun.

If the artist heard me say that,

they'd probably be furious.

I don't think so.

Or,

you can ask the artist yourself.

Who?

When Ming Yu called me,

I didn't know...

you'd be here today too.

This afternoon,

I took him to see Dad.

Ruan Ruan.

I know...

that in your heart,

you must still resent me...

for leaving your dad...

and you back then.

Actually,

there were many times...

I wanted to find a chance...

to explain it all to you.

But then I thought,

since...

I made that choice back then,

explaining...

wouldn't have helped anyway.

I...

I know that all these years,

you've suffered...

a lot on your own.

You've been through so much.

And I could only...

watch from afar...

and tell you in my heart,

over and over again,

"I'm sorry."

I'm sorry.

I don't know either.

I don't know how...

I've made it through all these years.

Ever since...

the day you left,

my longing for you...

grew more and more every day and night.

The more I missed you,

the more vulnerable I felt.

The more I hated you,

the tougher I became.

I just wondered...

why...

I couldn't be...

like other children,

who could see their mothers every single day.

But...

looking at it from another perspective,

it's because of those experiences...

that I've become so strong.

Mom,

don't feel guilty anymore.

I'm all grown up now.

Look.

Now,

I've achieved my dream,

and I have someone who loves me very much.

Just go ahead...

and boldly...

be yourself.

Thank you, my daughter.

Thank you.

Mom.

I'll take you home,

then I need to head back to the office.

I'll ask for leave for you.

You can go back now.

Why are you in such a hurry to get rid of me?

I'd better take you back.

Otherwise, I won't feel at ease.

This is far enough.

Are you doing okay?

Is this how you won over...

all your business partners, one by one?

I don't usually put in...

this much effort for them.

Why do I feel like you've had a core upgrade...

since you came back?

In the past,

I was only after your handsome looks.

How did I start catching feelings?

This doesn't look good.

Don't you feel like you've hit the jackpot?

Not really.

Before, you were just a consumer good.

I accepted the wear and tear...

and depreciation of your looks.

But now you're emotional support.

You're worth a much higher premium.

If one day...

you stopped being available to me,

I wouldn't be able to handle it.

Stop right there.

Ms. Ruan, stop objectifying your boyfriend.

I feel like my sense of security is slipping away.

Could it be because...

the security at this old house is poor?

Do you want to move back to Mingchen?

I don't want to. I haven't lived here long enough.

Besides,

this is a house I bought with my own money.

It's my family's old home.

It gives me the most security, okay?

I'm going. You should head back.

Fu Ming Yu!

Why is it you again?

Does it still hurt?

Here.

Does it still hurt?

What do you think?

Who told you to trespass...

with ulterior motives?

I was going easy on you.

You should be glad that I didn't have...

anything handy at the time.

Otherwise, your handsome face...

would've been ruined.

I have ulterior motives?

Didn't you give me the keys to your house?

Besides, it's so windy tonight.

I saw that you didn't even close the window.

You weren't even covered up.

What if you catch a cold?

Why are you back all of a sudden?

Didn't you go back to the office?

I did.

Bai Yang booked a flight for tomorrow.

I'm going away for work.

You're leaving tomorrow?

Do you mean...

you want me to get lost now?

I didn't say that.

I wish you could stay for a few more days.

Really?

Is that what you really think?

Then tell me,

what are you thinking about right now?

Right now, I'm thinking...

about what my ulterior motives should be.

What's this supposed to mean?

A slap, then a little sweetener.

Just one?

How many more do you want?

I'll have to do the math.

(Ma'ao)

I've arrived in Ma'ao.

What are you doing?

(Please emphasize these five strict requirements during training.)

(Ruan Si Xian)

I just finished simulator training.

Sure enough, as soon as you left,

I was notified that my grounding is over.

If all goes well,

I'll finish retraining the day after tomorrow.

After a physical exam,

I can resume flying.

(Fu Ming Yu)

Congratulations in advance, Captain Ruan.

We haven't seen each other for years.

Let's drink until we're drunk tonight!

- Come on, cheers! - Cheers!

How about we find a KTV and sing for a while?

- Definitely! - I know a KTV nearby.

It's pretty good. It's just around the corner.

Let's go have a few more drinks later.

How about a drinking contest today?

Sure! Let's go to the KTV later...

and have some more fun.

I'll pass.

You guys go ahead.

Hello?

Hello? Are you home?

I just got home.

Why are you home so late tonight?

Tonight...

was a college reunion.

How about you?

Is your cold any better?

I'm okay.

Bai Yang's is a bit more serious.

Even if it's not serious, take medicine.

You mentioned a college reunion just now.

Did that senior who treated you to a meal...

at the pilot talk go as well?

- Forget it. - He did go.

Wait.

How did you know...

the one who treated me was Xie Yu?

I suddenly have a bit of a headache.

I'm going to rest now.

Good night.

Wait.

Why did I hesitate just now?

Now it looks even more suspicious.

Fu Ming Yu, oh Fu Ming Yu.

What kind of question was that?

He...

He's jealous.

He must be jealous.

Mr. Fu, you're still up?

Not yet.

By the way,

the house across from Xiao Ruan's...

has been rented.

You don't have to worry about her safety.

I'll head back to rest now.

Is your cold any better?

Much better.

I just got back from getting an IV drip.

How about you? Do you need some medicine?

- Don't catch it from me. - I'm fine.

I'm in great health.

I understand.

Xiao Ruan is your best medicine.

Oh, right.

You've always asked me...

why I wear different colored socks every week.

Because life...

should be colorful.

I wish you both happiness.

Good night.

An An.

How is it going?

Do you need me to go in and help you?

Mom, just stay seated.

There are two people in here helping me.

- Okay. - What's the rush?

Come sit for a while and have some water.

Thank you.

How is it?

It's okay.

It's very pretty.

I think it's pretty too.

But the train is just so heavy.

Walking around in this...

is like doing a cardio workout.

Mom.

What do you think?

It's beautiful.

Really beautiful.

Mom, you...

I'm not even married yet.

I'm just trying on a wedding dress.

I know.

I don't know what's come over me.

Is this really necessary, you two?

Getting all sentimental already.

This is only the first one.

There are several more to try.

Do you want to cry...

for every single dress?

I just feel like...

this is all like a dream.

You two were just little girls.

How did you get married all of a sudden?

Of course, I don't want you...

to grow old alone.

I just want to see you...

marry the right person.

Mom, Yan An is becoming more driven now.

Because I trained him.

He's getting better and better.

I know.

Yan An is a good boy.

It's just that...

he's still not mature enough.

You...

have to be mentally prepared.

From now on,

you'll have to be there for him as he matures.

(Ruan Si Xian)

I have a fever.

(I have a fever.)

(Voice call)

(Ruan Si Xian)

Hello?

Why didn't you reply to my messages?

My hands were full, so I couldn't type.

Ruan Si Xian, I have a fever.

Open the door.

- What? - Did the fever make you go deaf?

Open the door. I'm roaming.

I'm hanging up.

What's with the attitude?

Roaming?

Open the door?

Open the door.

You're not hiding a woman, are you?

I'll give you five seconds.

One.

Two.

Three.

Four.

Aren't you ecstatic?

Aren't you overjoyed?

Aren't you happy?

Aren't you surprised?

Are you really hiding a woman?

Hello, your ice cream is ready.

Okay. Thank you.

Black truffle chocolate.

Yes, I want that too.

Here you go. Sorry to keep you waiting.

See which one you like.

This is my favorite...

black truffle chocolate flavor.

However,

I'll let you have the first bite.

Really?

I must say,

it's not too sweet.

Fu Ming Yu!

You're definitely over your fever.

You almost ate the whole thing in one bite!

Look at you now.

Do you still look like a domineering CEO?

Isn't there still half left?

That half wouldn't even fill a gap in my teeth.

You're so annoying.

Come on.

It's all yours.

- Okay. - Let's go to that shop.

Let's buy more.

Okay.

Here.

It's really beautiful.

You've said that many times already.

It's not enough.

A once-in-a-lifetime moment.

I want to remember...

this romantic moment forever.

Then why don't we take this romance...

a little further?

- What do you think? - Did you do this?

It's a bit strange.

Is it?

But sometimes, fate...

can be a strange thing.

Yet it's also wonderful.

The two of us seem to have...

a special connection with Ma'ao.

We met on a flight...

to Ma'ao.

But back then,

I was like a clown.

We've been through so many things together.

You've also given me so many surprises.

I have no way to repay you,

so I've decided to offer myself to you.

I just don't know if I'll have the honor...

of spending the rest of my life...

with you.

Why are you just smiling and not saying anything?

I'm proposing very seriously.

I know.

But...

can you get up first?

I won't.

Unless you say yes.

I want to finish my F7 assessment first.

With too much on my mind,

I'm afraid I'll be distracted.

So, from the sound of it,

I've been rejected.

No.

You've passed the assessment.

But you still have to go home and wait for the notice.

Go home and wait for the notice?

What do you mean?

Didn't expect that, did you, Fu Ming Yu?

My revenge plan...

is finally complete.

Well played, Ruan Si Xian.

Then should I also write a letter...

to try and win you over?

Don't be in such a rush.

Look at me.

I'll become a captain sooner or later.

And you...

will also, sooner or later,

become my husband.

But...

you still have to work harder.

It really hurts to be rejected.

You have to learn to accept it.

Uncertainty is the norm in life.

That's Captain Ruan for you.

How are you? Are you tired?

I haven't had many flights lately.

It's okay. I'm not too tired.

How was your flight today?

It was okay, I think.

Everything went well.

The weather's been nice lately too.

Everyone, the check-in area...

is right ahead of us.

It's about a minute's walk.

In about 10 minutes,

we can watch a movie under that canopy over there.

Happy birthday to you

(The Echoes World Tour: Jiangcheng)

Check your hair.

If there's any loose hair, tuck it in later.

So, no one here...

is feeling unwell, right?

No.

It's probably a long shot.

Indeed.

We have to prepare well.

Good luck.

Ruan Si Xian.

You're so amazing.

Hello?

Is anyone out there?

The restroom door won't open.

Hello? Is anyone there?

Captain Ruan.

Captain Ruan, is that you?

Fu Ming Yu?

Listen up in there.

You're surrounded.

What are you doing?

Let me out first.

Stop putting up a futile resistance.

You've already completed...

your F6-to-F7 assessment.

Please fulfill...

your promise to me immediately.

The results aren't out yet.

The results don't matter anymore.

You'll definitely pass.

Can you let me out first?

Then promise me first...

that you'll marry me.

Are you sure you want our proposal...

to have such a unique scent?

I've never cared about that.

What I care about is...

whether you're willing to accept my proposal.

Captain Ruan.

Ruan Ruan.

Then I'm coming in.

What?

Did your own smell get to you?

Get out! This is the ladies' room.

What are you doing?

Then will you...

accept my proposal?

Are you sure you want to do it here?

Of course.

I'm very sure.

Fine.

Then I'll say yes.

I'll put it on now.

So beautiful.

I wonder if it's sturdy enough to hit with.

What do you mean?

I just want to see if it's sturdy enough to hit with.

Ruan Si Xian!

Honey.

Why do we have to take this flight?

This is the most efficient route...

I could find.

But this is the only flight left.

Just bear with it.

No, Fu Ming Yu and the others want to take...

wedding photos under the meteor shower.

Why are we going so early?

The next flight would be more comfortable.

I'm their photographer.

Guess who'll take their wedding photos...

if I don't go?

Just sleep. You'll feel better once you're asleep.

Ladies and gentlemen,

thank you for flying with Hengshi Airlines...

on Flight 1213...

from Yantai to Yuanhu Island.

Our aircraft is about to reach its destination.

Please return to your seats,

- Kiss her! - Kiss her!

(Life is turbulent, just like flying.)

(But with courage and determination, you'll land safely.)
