Chapter 81 Quickly Transmigrate! Fate of the Ice Star (Thirty-three)
"What's good about that!" His mother interrupted him, with a hint of reproach in her tone, "We've all seen the news. What terrible things did you find on Ice Star that you want to make public? Do you know how dangerous this is? How could you..."
Shu Yang knew that his parents were referring to their discovery of underground civilization ruins on Ice Star. The news had been transmitted back to Earth, causing an uproar.
"Mom, don't worry, we have made all the preparations..." Shu Yang tried to explain, but was interrupted by his father's stern voice.
"What perfect preparation! Do you know what you are doing? You are a girl, not one of those soldiers who fight and kill all day long! You should return to Earth, find a stable job, and marry into a good family. This is the life you should live!"
"Dad!" Shu Yang raised his voice. This was the first time he had ever contradicted his father since he was a child. "I love my job, I like Ice Star, I like exploring the unknown, this is my dream!"
"Dream? For your dream, are you going to abandon us and everything on earth?" The mother's voice choked, "Yan Yan, please come back. We don't want to worry about you anymore..."
Shu Yang's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and he was in great pain. How could he not miss his parents and the warmth and comfort on earth? But he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and he couldn't give up so easily.
Feng Ziang had been standing beside Shu Yang, listening to their conversation quietly. He felt Shu Yang's inner struggle and pain, and his clenched fists showed his inner anxiety. He knew that it was time for him to stand up... He gently patted Shu Yang's shoulder, his eyes firm, "Uncle and aunt, please let me talk to you."
Shu Yang's parents looked at this strange young man in confusion. They knew from the news that Feng Ziang was a member of Shu Yang's team, but they had never seen him in person. Feng Ziang took a deep breath and looked at the two elders sincerely, "Uncle and aunt, hello, I am Feng Ziang, Shu Yang's...colleague, and also his partner."
He paused, gathered his thoughts, and continued, "I know you are worried about Shuyang's safety, about the hardships he will endure on this strange planet, and about his future. But please believe me, Ice Star is not as scary as you think. We have a professional team, and Shuyang is our leader. He is brave, wise, and full of responsibility. We are all working together to overcome difficulties and explore the unknown."
Feng Ziang recounted their experiences on Ice Star, describing the magnificent glaciers, strange creatures, and the mysterious underground civilization ruins. He talked about how the team worked together to overcome the harsh environment and how they supported each other to overcome difficulties. Of course, he also focused on Shu Yang's role in it, his courage, his wisdom, his leadership, and his love and persistence for this career.
"Uncle and aunt, maybe you can't understand Shuyang's desire to explore the unknown, but I can. I have witnessed his efforts and sacrifices for this career. He deserves respect and support." Feng Ziang's voice was steady and powerful. "I love him, I hope to give him happiness, and I hope he can realize his dream. Please believe me, and believe Shuyang, we will take good care of ourselves, and we will definitely return safely."
Shu Yang's parents listened to Feng Ziang's words with uncertain expressions on their faces. They had never seen Feng Ziang so serious, nor had they heard about his feelings for Shu Yang. They saw determination and sincerity in Feng Ziang's eyes, and also saw something they had never understood before, which was the common belief and pursuit of Shu Yang and Feng Ziang.
The room fell into silence. Shu Yang's mother gently wiped away the tears from her eyes and turned to look at her husband who had been silent the whole time, "Old Shi..."
Shu Yang's father, who was always taciturn, sighed deeply at this moment, breaking the silence in the room. "Xiao Shu, we can see that you are a good child, and we know that you are really doing this for Yan Yan." He paused, turned his gaze to Shu Yang, his eyes full of love, "Yan Yan, you have been independent and opinionated since you were a child, and we have always respected your choices. But this incident really worries us. We are old and can't stand the hustle and bustle. We just want you to be safe and sound."
Shu Yang's eyes were red. He walked forward and held his father's hand. "Dad, Mom, I'm sorry for making you worry." He took a deep breath and said firmly, "Exploring the ice planet is my dream, but I have never thought of giving up my family. After this mission is over, I will apply to be transferred back to Earth to spend more time with you."
Feng Ziang also stepped forward, held Shu Yang's mother's hand, and said sincerely: "Auntie, we will come back safely. Then I will travel with you to make up for Yan Yan's absence."
Shu Yang's parents looked at each other, and smiles appeared in their eyes. They saw Shu Yang's determination and felt Feng Ziang's sincerity. Perhaps, they should really try to understand their children's dreams instead of blindly blocking them.
Just as Shu Yang and Feng Ziang were preparing to return to Bingxing to continue their exploration, Shu Yang's mother suddenly spoke up: "Yang Yang, your father and I have discussed it. We want to go to Bingxing to take a look."
"What?!" Shu Yang's eyes widened in surprise, "You are going to Bingxing? But..."
"Yan Yan, don't worry, we have already made up our minds!" Shu Yang's father took over the conversation, "We want to see where you work and the dream you are fighting for."
Shu Yang felt mixed emotions, both happy and worried. He knew his parents made this decision for him, but he was more worried about whether his parents could adapt to the harsh environment of Bingxing. "But, the environment of Bingxing is very harsh, your bodies..."
"Don't worry, we have consulted the doctor and we will make all preparations." Shu Yang's mother patted his hands, her eyes full of expectation, "You can arrange it, we want to see the magical ice and snow world you mentioned."
Shu Yang looked at his parents' determined eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that no matter where he was, the love of his family would always be his strongest support. However, when the spaceship landed at the Ice Star Base, the cabin door slowly opened, and the biting cold wind mixed with snowflakes hit their faces, Shu Yang's parents were still stunned. They looked at the desolate world of ice and snow in front of them, and their faces turned pale...
The biting cold wind was like a sharp ice knife, ruthlessly cutting the exposed skin. Shu Yang's parents stood there shivering, looking at the silver-clad world in front of them, their eyes full of disbelief. This was far from what they imagined their son would work in. There was only endless ice and snow, and no sign of life.
