Chen Shanhe shook his head and then nodded. "As far as career planning is concerned, I definitely don't want to come. Aside from a few people in this unit, my public identity is just an ordinary pilot. So the conditions offered here are only top-tier treatment for a pilot. But, you know, I'm more than just a pilot."
Chen Shanhe is a test pilot.
The most advanced fighter jets undergo repeated test flights during the design and refinement phase to gather a wide range of data. This includes testing various conditions that may arise in extreme weather or under extreme operating conditions. Only after all issues are resolved and the aircraft are flawlessly perfected can they be mass-produced.
But test flights often come at the cost of lives.
Ordinary pilots mostly just conduct flight training. As the world becomes more peaceful, actual combat situations are becoming less and less common.
It cannot be said that Chen Shanhe’s coming here is a hero without a place to use his talents, but his contribution is definitely not as great as if he had stayed in Yincheng.
However, he was still somewhat tempted by the proposal of the leaders of the Huacheng Military Region.
Because I stay in Huacheng, I am close to Jiang Shiyue.
In the past, love would never be within Chen Shanhe’s consideration.
But after spending some time apart, he really didn't want to be separated from Jiang Shiyue again.
No matter how heroic he is portrayed in the newspapers, in private he is just an ordinary man who wants a wife and children and a warm bed.
Jiang Shiyue understood Chen Shanhe's implication and shook her head. "I'm very happy that you can consider me in your career plan. However, I told you before that I hope we can shine in our respective fields. I won't give up my profession and my ideals for you and become a housewife who only works around the stove. Similarly, I don't want you to give up the place where you can best utilize your strengths and accommodate me to come to Huacheng."
Subjectively, I admit that I'm very happy that you can come here, not only because we don't have to live in a different place, but also because Flower City is safer for you than Silver City."
Everyone knows that for every test flight, the probability of returning or dying is fifty percent.
Be alive and be happy naturally.
If he dies, I'm afraid there won't even be ashes left for her.
"But..." Jiang Shiyue looked at Chen Shanhe, "You can't break the eagle's wings just because it falls off a cliff. You have your own mission. The sky is your battlefield."
Just like this time when Chen Shanhe was injured.
She would get upset, but she never said a word to ask him to transfer to a civilian position or continue to stay in the maintenance camp.
"Yueyue..." Chen Shanhe held Jiang Shiyue's hand with a complicated expression.
He was not good at speaking. He had a lot to say to her, but he didn't know how to say it.
Jiang Shiyue shook her head, patted the back of his hand, and said soothingly, "I understand what you mean. Two people are together to achieve each other, not hold each other back. Besides, it's useless for you to come to Huacheng. You are in closed training every day, and I am in school every day. We only see each other every weekend or during holidays. This is not much different from me going back to Yincheng during winter and summer vacations. The point is, I won't be in Huacheng all the time. After the matter in Dongsheng is resolved, I will go to Pengcheng or Xiangjiang."
Reform and opening up initially started with foreign trade.
Jiang Shiyue’s plan is to get a pass and residence permit before Pengcheng is surrounded. It would be even better if he could get a household registration in Hong Kong or directly start a company.
Chen Shanhe: “…”
Jiang Shiyue mentioned that she wanted to go to Pengcheng to do business. Chen Shanhe nodded and glanced in the direction of Yangyang. Seeing that he was immersed in the world of books, he sat up and quickly kissed Jiang Shiyue on the lips, "Wife, you are so nice!"
With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?!
Jiang Shiyue smiled and pushed him, "Aren't you afraid of being seen?"
"Now it's just our family of three." Chen Shanhe said, "The remaining comrade has also gone to complete the discharge procedures."
"What about you? When do you plan to be discharged from the hospital?" Jiang Shiyue asked.
Chen Shanhe's other injuries have almost healed, the most serious of which is the fracture in his arm.
But a fracture cannot be healed in a day or two, and it can be healed at home.
Chen Shanhe shook his head. "I'm afraid it won't work in the next two days. My old boss called to see me."
"Huh? You still have your old leader here?"
"No. The former leader of the flight squadron is half my master."
"I flew all the way from Yincheng to see you?" Jiang Shiyue's eyes widened. "Just a broken arm?"
Chen Shanhe pinched Jiang Shiyue's slender waist as punishment and said in a low voice, "Just break an arm?"
It didn't hurt when he pinched it, it just itched.
Jiang Shiyue dodged while explaining with a smile: "That's not what I meant. A broken arm must be a serious injury to you."
Any injury that is so severe that you cannot fly an airplane is considered a serious injury.
"But, for your leaders, a minor injury to an officer shouldn't be so serious that they'd fly all the way here to see you, right?"
"Wife, I think you underestimate me!" Chen Shanhe complained, then smiled, "But you're right, our leader didn't come here to see my injury, he was mainly worried that I would be poached."
He had undergone intensive training a while ago and was just one step away from passing the assessment to return to the flight squadron.
As a result, he was temporarily transferred to Huacheng for "study", and the assessment was naturally delayed.
Now that Huacheng wants to poach him, his old boss is of course anxious, fearing that he will stay in Huacheng just to avoid taking the assessment.
"Also..." Chen Shanhe lay back on the bed and discussed with Jiang Shiyue, "I have something else I need to ask our old leader for help."
***
Chen Shanhe’s old leader arrived in Huacheng in the afternoon.
After saying hello in the ward, Jiang Shiyue gave the room to them to discuss things, and took Yangyang and Li Xiao back to the rental house.
When I went downstairs, I saw a familiar young man wandering around the door of the unit.
Li Xiao instantly protected Jiang Shiyue and Yangyang behind him, and walked towards the unit door in a defensive posture.
The young man turned around and saw Jiang Shiyue running towards him with excitement on his face, reaching into his shoulder bag as he ran.
"River……"
Before he could finish his words, Li Xiao kicked him and he fell to the ground.
The glasses also flew out.
The young man, who was nearsighted, fumbled on the ground for his glasses while scolding Li Xiao, "How can you be so rude, female comrade? I came here to see Jiang Shiyue, not you. Why did you hit someone?"
When Jiang Shiyue heard the word "classmate", she remembered why he looked familiar.
He is Xu Ke.
The two had met once before in the school study room.
Jiang Shiyue hurriedly stopped Li Xiao, stepped forward to help pick up Xu Ke's glasses and return them to him, then helped him up. "I'm sorry, my friend mistook you for a bad guy. I apologize to you on her behalf. Xu Ke, why are you here?"
Xu Ke put on his glasses, stood up and brushed the dirt off his clothes. He then looked at Li Xiao with dissatisfaction. However, when he saw Li Xiao's expression, he turned back and muttered, "She's so cute but so rude!"
Jiang Shiyue was afraid that Li Xiao would hit him again, so he stood between Li Xiao and Xu Ke and asked him again: "Xu Ke, do you have something to talk to me about?"
