Above the cloud

Yin Chen still remembers his answer when a reporter from Aviation Magazine asked him why he chose this career.

"I didn't choose to fly, but flight chose me."

When he was still in the womb, he grew up listening to the roar of the engine. Later, his mother passed away, and his father would occasionally take him to perform missions with the crew.When he entered the cockpit for the first time, Yin Chen was shocked by the complicated buttons and devices, carefully shrank in the back row of the cockpit, and looked at this huge and complicated machine with amazed eyes.

Yin Zhenghan saw his eyes and thought that his son must have many questions to ask.Unexpectedly, Yin Chen looked at the epaulets on the uniforms of him and the co-pilot, and finally only asked one question.

What is the difference between three bars and four bars?

This question is simple to ask, but not easy to answer.But Yin Zhenghan didn't want to prevaricate this young man who had longed for flying. He thought about it and answered seriously.

Although the young Yin Chen didn't understand anything at the time, 20 years later, he proved with practice that he had completed his transformation.

Because of his outstanding performance in the bird strike emergency landing incident, Yin Chen became An Hang's hero.The company held a small captain awarding ceremony for him, and Yin Zhenghan was also specially invited by the company to come back to watch the ceremony.

Surrounded by colleagues, the president of the company personally put on a new epaulette for Yin Chen.

Yin Chen looked at the golden four stripes with mixed feelings in his heart.For it, he has suffered a lot and suffered a lot. He has looked forward to it and has been disappointed.But when he really got it today, he realized that all these sacrifices were worth it.

"Yin Chen, say something." Sui He handed him the microphone.

Yin Chen took the microphone, but did not speak for a long time.He smiled and swept across the audience, he saw the expectant eyes of the young pilots, the affirmative eyes of senior colleagues, and finally he saw his father's wrinkled eyes and gray hair.

He calmed down a little and had already thought about the beginning.

"Many years ago, a captain once told me that each of the four golden bars on the captain's shoulders has a unique meaning."

"One bar represents professionalism, two bars represent knowledge, and three bars represent flying skills. I got these three bars shortly after I entered Anhang," Yin Chen said, focusing on the familiar person in the crowd , He Yao was also looking at him with an encouraging smile on his face.Yin Chen paused, and continued, "But it took me five years to get the fourth bar."

"This fourth bar represents responsibility."

There are many kinds of responsibilities, but in the end it is nothing more than the four characters of "a clear heart".

Do your best, be ashamed of others, be ashamed of yourself, and be ashamed of your heart.

Yin Chen always thought that becoming a pilot was a predestined path, and he had no choice at all.Because in the blood of the Yin family, the imprint of Yun Yun has always been engraved.He grew up listening to the roar of the engine, and started flying on his father's simulator at the age of five. Yin Chen has always had enough confidence in his skills, but he has always had doubts about whether he loves flying. .

He had imagined countless times, if he could resign, what would he want to do?But he couldn't think of anything.

And the answer became clear when He Yao was injured.

Not having a choice is actually a choice.

"...wearing this epaulette means that I will take on greater responsibilities, but I am ready to always keep in mind the mission of being a captain and make my own contribution to the company's safe operation."

With the end of Yin Chen's speech, the audience applauded thunderously.All the people present were moved by his words, and there were admiration in their eyes.And He Yao looked at him with tenderness as always.

A faint smile appeared on Yin Chen's face.

Some feelings always take root and sprout when you are not aware of them. They are not so crazy and blazing, and they will not be earth-shattering, but when you find out, they have already penetrated into the bone marrow.

It was just like the lips that the two touched for the first time in that ambiguous and noisy bar back then.Looking back now, who can tell clearly whether the trembling of the atrium at that time was due to nervousness or excitement?

Be it flying or love.

He didn't choose the best, the best choose him.

The short ceremony was over, and He Yao presented a bouquet of flowers to Yin Chen on behalf of the fleet.The president of the company originally wanted to chat with Yin Chen, but was pulled away by Yin Zhenghan.

He Yao looked at Yin Zhenghan's back, and said with a smile, "Your father took it easy."

Yin Chen said with a smile: "It's not just about looking away, he's starting to worry about us now. Ever since he found out about Mo Shaoting's marriage, he asked me every day when I would abduct you in."

"Are you sure you didn't say anything against it?" He Yao raised his eyebrows.

"Is there any difference between your door and mine? It's our own door anyway," Yin Chen said, as if he was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly lowered his head to look at the bouquet, then frowned slightly, "You know I Allergic to lily pollen."

"Yeah, so it's not an easy task to wash off the pollen from every style."

Yin Chen took a closer look, and found that the flower's heart was really clean. No wonder he didn't smell the strong fragrance of lilies. His heart was a little moved, and he said, "Why bother..."

He Yao smiled softly, "If it wasn't for this, we wouldn't be able to complete the feat of proposing marriage under the eyes of everyone."

As he spoke, he tapped the flower stem with his fingertips, and a budding lily shook lightly. Layers of petals bloomed one by one, revealing the emerald white stamens, and there was a silver ring on the flower column.

Yin Chen was stunned, staring blankly at the ring, speechless for a long time.

"Promise?" He Yao asked softly.Seeing the other party's pensive expression, he felt a little nervous, so he teased, "I've been thinking about it for too long, and I'm going to go to another place to prepare for landing."

Yin Chen glanced at him, and raised the corners of his mouth, "I'm really thinking... thinking about whether I can wear this ring." As he spoke, he happily picked up the ring, put it on his middle finger, and turned his fingers.Sure enough, the ring twirled twice on Yin Chen's middle finger, and then easily fell into the palm of Yin Chen's palm under He Yao's shocked eyes.

"Don't you think it's a bit big? If you want to give a finger ring as a gift, you should buy jade, right?" Yin Chen felt that He Yao's deflated expression was really cute, and deliberately teased him.

He Yao's face was a little red, and he snatched the ring back from Yin Chen in a panic, explaining: "It seems that I got the number wrong when ordering the ring... This time it doesn't count..." Speaking of which, he also memorized it, the first time. I wanted to propose on the plane, but there was a bird strike incident and I lost the ring, and this time I just got the wrong number, which was very embarrassing.

Could it be that he has a natural conflict with things like rings?But without a ring, what can be used to trap the other party?

Yin Chen snickered in his heart, but seeing the man's expression gradually lost, he couldn't bear it, so he quickly changed the subject and asked, "How long have you been planning for today?"

"I was thinking about it before my eyes were healed." He Yao sighed silently, but it was a pity that he lost the chain after preparing for such a long time.

"That's it..." Yin Chen spoke slowly, then suddenly approached He Yao, and whispered to him, "Actually, I also had a plan in mind at that time."

"what's the plan?"

"I want to kiss you during the ceremony."

Before He Yao could even react, Yin Chen gagged his mouth.

Amidst the panting of the crowd, the young man brushed aside the man's teeth with the tip of his tongue without hesitation, and gently penetrated into his warm mouth, teasing the man's tongue before he could respond.

He is still willful as always, regardless of the occasion, regardless of the time, he does whatever he thinks, and never minds other people's opinions.

Intellectually, He Yao clearly criticized this unscrupulousness, but he still responded involuntarily.

In fact, I was attracted by him at the very beginning, wasn't I?

So confident, dazzling, and full of vigor broke into his life, making each other's lives undergone earth-shaking changes.

The kiss between the two gradually became lingering, and the surrounding young colleagues whistled one after another.

Xu Ying looked at them, and asked Sui He beside him in surprise, "Old Sui, what's going on?"

Sui He looked at him calmly, and asked, "You don't know anything?"

"I don't know!" Xu Ying was a little mad.In his perception, one is an unsmiling and iron-blooded captain, and the other is a rising star with superb skills. Apart from scheduling shifts together on weekdays, they don't have many intersections. How could they become a pair?

Sui He was stunned, "How on earth did you pass the physical examination with that look in your eyes?" After speaking, he walked away with his hands behind his back, leaving only Xu Ying who was still dazed.

Co-pilot Liu, who was listening on the sidelines, came over and patted his old partner on the shoulder, and comforted him: "Captain Xu, don't be sad, you just don't gossip like other people."

Xu Ying didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Do you even know the co-author?"

Co-pilot Liu nodded, "Of course, because..." He pursed his lips into a smile, and his expression suddenly became shy, "Because he is too!"

Xu Ying: "..."

Copilot Liu: "Captain Xu, in fact, I secretly told you that there are also ○○, □□ and ××× in our fleet, which are also calcium. ××× told me before that he had a crush on you, but now he has I have a boyfriend, he is the △△ of the B787 fleet..."

Xu Ying: "..." Do you want to come out to others in such a simple and rude manner!

The world, oh no!What happened to their fleet under his nose? !

Leader An Hang and Yin Zhenghan who were chatting not far away were also startled by the noisy voice.

"What happened?" The leader said as he was about to turn his head to look, but was forcibly turned back by Yin Zhenghan, who had seen the development of the matter first.

"It's just for the young people to celebrate, let's stay away from the old bones." He pulled the leader out of the meeting room as he spoke, "Let's go, let me invite you to dinner. In the future, I will have a son in my family." I have to ask you to take care of me..."

Son, a father can only help you so far.Yin Zhenghan sighed silently in his heart, and closed the door of the meeting room smoothly.

Although everyone has always sneered at Mo Shaoting's self-proclaimed "No. [-] handsome man in the Boeing fleet", they have to admit that besides being glib, Mo Shaoting is indeed good-looking, and with his half-length and half-curly hair, It has the temperament of a literary rock youth, especially attracts the kind of little girl who dreams of being "the last woman of the libertine".

Mo Shaoting's romantic history began in high school, even earlier than Yin Chen's, and his reputation surpassed that of the six junior high school seniors.As for the girls playing basketball to cheer up and deliver water, the breakfast shop can be opened in the class seat in the morning, and the confession letters with pink stickers are received from time to time, he is even more used to it.

At that time, Mo Shaoting would never have thought that he would be tied up by a woman, and Jiang Silin probably wouldn't either.

But time flies, the little bastard ten years ago has turned into a big bastard, and the ignorant thoughts have finally turned into years of persistence.

When Yin Chen and He Yao arrived at Mo's house, Mo Shaoting had just packed his outfit and was preparing things to bring to the restaurant under Mo's mother's instructions.Yin Chen almost didn't recognize him at first glance. The other party had a neat short haircut and was wearing a dazzling white close-fitting suit. He was clean and handsome. He had transformed from a literary youth into an industry elite.

"You actually have such a dog-like side." Yin Chen was dumbfounded.

Mo Shaoting brushed his hair, and winked at Yin Chen and He Yao, "Don't fall in love with me easily, I will become someone else's man today."

Yin Chen: "I'm sorry, so I was wrong..."

When Mo's mother saw He Yao, her expression was overjoyed, and she hurried over to hold his hand, expressing emotion: "Yaoyao, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you are so old."

"Hello, Auntie." He Yao nodded with a smile, and then apologized, "A lot of things happened after returning to China. I was too busy to come to see you at home." When Mama He was still in China, she and Mama Mo The relationship is good, and He Yao's words are sincere.

Thinking of the changes in the He family over the years, Mo's mother also sighed, "It's okay, it's all a vain gift, it's fine if you come back, will you leave in the future?"

He Yao glanced at Yin Chen, and replied with a smile: "I'm not leaving."

"That's great," Mo's mother beamed with joy. "It's great that you can come back to be my family's best man. When he told me that, I was shocked. Back then, your mother and I were just pregnant. When we were together, we even discussed whether we should have a baby marriage or not," Mo's mother said with a face full of nostalgia, and glared at Mo Shaoting, "I thought she was a beautiful girl, but in the end she was born a naughty brat."

Mo Shaoting stared for no reason, and hummed aggrievedly, "Mom..."

Mo's mother was amused by his embarrassment, "No matter what, I'm finally going to get married."

Yin Chen snickered aside.

Mo's mother found Yin Chen, who had been silent all this time, and told him, "Xiao Chen, you are not young anymore, why haven't you made any movement yet?"

Mo Shaoting added fuel and vinegar: "It's not young, it's 30 this year."

Yin Chen quickly replied: "It's coming soon." He knew that after Mo Shaoting got married, he would inevitably be pointed out by his elders.

"What about Yaoyao? Is there a date?" Mom Mo asked again.

He Yao smiled slightly, "Yes."

"Oh, are you Chinese?" The gossip mode is on.

"Yes."

Mo's mother said with a look on her face that "our juniors in the courtyard are just striving for success", and said with a smile: "Our Yaoyao's eyesight is definitely not bad, and the person we are looking for must be beautiful and good-natured."

The corners of Yin Chen's eyes twitched when he heard this, and Mo Shaoting burst out laughing.

He Yao also pursed his lips and smiled calmly, beautiful?That's natural.As for his temper... He glanced at Yin Chen, thinking in his heart, maybe he can barely count when he is on the bed.

Mo's mother was confused by the three juniors, but fortunately, the auspicious time was approaching, so she didn't bother to ask, and took Mo's father to get in the car.

This standard Chinese-style wedding was an eye-opener for He Yao. They bumped into the door and stuffed red envelopes. The two groomsmen devoted themselves to their duties throughout the whole process and helped Mo Shaoting break through the traps set by the woman. When they were carried out, they were almost exhausted.

Yin Chen slumped on the back seat, leaned on He Yao's shoulder and said weakly, "It's a good thing I don't have to get married like this in the future..."

He Yao held his hand dumbfounded.

After a while, the bridesmaids on the bride's side also boarded the car. One was an acquaintance Dai Jing, and the other Yin Chen didn't know each other. She seemed to be Jiang Silin's college classmate.

The car started, and the convoy headed towards the hotel. Soon, Yin Chen found that the bridesmaid whom he didn't know was always sneaking glances at He Yao, so he straightened his back and stood between the two of them.The girl knew that her little thoughts had been discovered, so she blushed and looked out the window, and never looked back.

All this was seen by He Yao, and he laughed softly.

"Why are you laughing?" Yin Chen glared at him.

"Laughing, you finally feel my pain." He Yao winked at him.

While Yin Chen was still in a daze, Dai Jing had already whispered, "You two are really a disaster, but luckily it was resolved internally."

After arriving at the hotel, the wedding proceeded step by step.After the ceremony, the couple changed into Chinese clothes and toasted at the tables. Mo Shaoting had too many friends, and his personality was very straightforward. Although Yin Chen and He Yao did not stop drinking for him, they still knocked him out after drinking from table to table. .

Jiang Silin wearing a cheongsam and high heels couldn't hold back her confused husband, so she handed her over to the two best men.

"My mother always thought it was a legend! Is there really someone who would drink too much on the wedding night? Do you think you are stupid, you can add water if you can't drink."

While cursing, Yin Chen and He Yao helped him to the wedding room upstairs in the hotel.As soon as he opened the door, Mo Shaoting rushed into the toilet with a groan and vomited in the dark.

The two looked at each other helplessly, fearing that he would die inside, seeing that he had almost vomited, they helped him to the living room and sat down.

After vomiting, Mo Shaoting seemed to be a little more sober, his eyes scanned the faces of He Yao and Yin Chen repeatedly, and suddenly he grinned, and asked, "You two, are you really together? "

The two looked at each other, their eyes were blank, thinking in unison, could this guy be so drunk that he lost his memory?

Seeing that they didn't answer, Mo Shaoting spoke again, this time as if he was talking to Yin Chen alone: ​​"Chenzi, you are different from Lao Yao, you are not born, if you regret it..." Speaking of this He seemed to understand the inappropriateness of this remark, so he smiled self-deprecatingly, "Hey, what am I worrying about here?"

Mo Shaoting's words touched Yin Chen's heartstrings. He bit his lip and said after a long silence, "I won't regret it."

"Haha, good! I knew that you have always had this temperament," Mo Shaoting nodded with a smile, "Do you know why I asked you to be the best man?"

The two shook their heads.

"In the future, you may not have this kind of ostentation when you get married. It's good to experience it in advance. You two are my children. I can't do it for you. I can't live with it."

It was only then that Yin Chen discovered that his and He Yao's dresses were actually a pair.

Mo Shaoting got up from the sofa, put his arms around the shoulders of the two, and said with some sobs: "This road is not easy, but remember, there are buddies who will support you in everything."

As he spoke, he took Yin Chen's hand and said, "If He Yao treats you badly, buddy, take someone to beat you up!" Then he took He Yao's hand and folded it with Yin Chen's, "The same , if Yin Chen attracts the attention of others, I will clean it up for you!"

It seemed that it was because the words were too cocky, several people looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing, the laughter became louder and louder, and in the end it was a bit uncontrollable, Yin Chen's eyes even leaked tears.

When hugging, I don't know who started it first, and then everyone sang loudly together, regardless of the key, without memorizing the words, as brisk as when they were young and frivolous.

"The weather is not as expected, but if you want to go, you have to fly;

I can't wait for you to say goodbye, whether there is a chance or not;

Be considerate to me, but your hand, as if tomorrow will be far away.

May you be able to leave the happy memory of me together;

When the world is not perfect, I can find you far away in the song of time. "

Time flies like this, and half a year has passed in a blink of an eye.

Today is the last day that Yin Chen will work with other captains as a trainee captain, and the captain in the same group is He Yao.

When Yin Chen boards the B747 next time, he will be the justifiable Captain Yin.The position beside him will usher in young co-pilots one after another, where they will learn, improve and grow until they can be independent.

As for that person... Yin Chen thought, and secretly looked to the side. His position was neither on the left nor on the right, but in his heart.

Halfway through the cruise, both of them took a nap in the rest cabin.Yin Chen looked out the window boredly, but suddenly found a rainbow-colored halo appeared on the clouds below the plane.

The halo wrapped the projection of the fuselage on the cloud and moved at the same speed, as if a rainbow was guarding the flight.

"Look! It's Pilot's Halo."

Such a dreamy and warm scene made Yin Chen very excited, he poked the man next to him, excited like a new driver.

He Yao teased him with a smile: "Didn't you say that you are not surprised?"

Yin Chen knew that he was talking about the first meeting between the two, so he explained with some embarrassment: "Watching with you, this is the second time."

He Yao's eyes turned into crescent moons when he heard what he said, "The weather conditions were bad when you hated Pilot's Halo, what about now?"

Yin Chen didn't answer directly, but just smiled softly, repeating what the other party said at the time: "The company on the long flight is the long-term love."

The same scene, the same people, but the feelings are completely different from then.

The two looked at each other for a long time, and they were silent. Unspeakable emotions surged in their hearts, and their chests seemed to be filled and swollen, as if they would burst out at any moment.

"Chen," suddenly, He Yao broke the silence, "Do you think it looks like a ring?" He held Yin Chen's hand, made a gesture of inserting himself into the rainbow halo outside the window, and smiled Said: "Put it on. Take a look, is the size right this time?"

Yin Chen smiled faintly, and held the man's hand back.

"This time I'm completely trapped by you."

On the cloud, with the child.

Thousands of miles of rivers and rivers, walk with you.
