“Liu Chun,” The man turned around and laughed heartily, “I thought I came here for nothing today! I’ve been looking for you.”

...

“Captain Chu, why are you here?”

“I heard that Hengyang has a factory. Of course, I’m here to support him.”

Liu Chun did not miss a beat. “Captain Chu, please don’t take me for a fool. You’re here for someone, aren’t you?” Liu Chun did not believe Captain Chu had such benign intentions. It was a miracle that nothing had been damaged or knocked out of place.

Chu Yiping smiled bitterly. “Even if I were here for someone, I’d first need to meet them.” Shrugging helplessly, he said, “Hengyang won’t even see me.”

It was Liu Chun’s turn to be surprised. Hengyang and Captain Chu were best friends; they talked about everything. Why would he not want to see Captain

Chu?

“Really?”

“Why would I lie? Why don’t you try calling him?” Chu Yiping’s eyes brightened. “I’ve been here the whole afternoon waiting to meet him. I have to go soon. I’d like to see him before I do.”

Liu Chun pointed at himself. “Captain Chu, do I look like an idiot to you? Since

Hengyang doesn’t want to see you, how is it my place to get involved? I don’t want to meddle and get in trouble.” He and Hengyang had known each other since they were young, so Liu Chun knew his friend’s temper.

He would not do something so dumb.

Chu Yiping was taken aback by the rejection but quickly composed himself, shaking his head wryly. He had known Hengyang for so many years and thought that he was the person who understood him the most. He realized it was just his arrogance doing the talking.

He could not even compare to Liu Chun.

“Hengyang has taught me a lesson today.” He had seen how ruthless Zhou Hengyang could be when he chose to be heartless. What happened to them being as close as brothers? That had ended the day Hengyang had said so.

Chu Yiping hunched as if he had a thousand-pound weight strapped onto his back, his handsome features scarred by feelings of depression so great that it was almost palpable.

He had lost his best friend a long time ago.

“Captain Chu? Are you alright?” When Liu Chun saw the flash of pain written on Chu Yiping’s face, he almost thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. Captain Chu was a renowned and well-respected figure. It was an honor for him to take time out of his busy schedule to grace their small factory with his presence.

However, that did not matter to Hengyang, and Liu Chu could sympathize but also gloat at Captain Chu’s misfortune.

If news of the event were to spread, countless people would be shocked.

“I’m fine,” Captain Chu said, commandeering his emotions behind an iron mask.

“I’ve always wanted to ask you something, Captain Chu. Why did Hengyang leave the military? I’ve asked him several times, but he wouldn’t answer.” As of late, Liu Chun had felt restless. He wanted to know why Hengyang would suddenly become a live-in son-in-law.

That changed when he met his self-proclaimed sister-in-law. If it were someone like her, he, too, would have been willing to become a live-in son-in-law.

His curious attention was now trained on the mysterious reason which led to Hengyang retiring from the military.

It was unbelievable.

Not only was he a special-class pilot, but he was also the youngest and most talented mechanic in the aerospace field. Looking at Hengyang, who used only to make planes, condescending to make a bicycle and sewing machine, he felt sorry for him.

It was such a waste.

Chu Yiping’s expression grew complicated. He thought of how he could respond to Liu Chun’s question. As if pained by the admission, he said, “Hengyang’s brother sacrificed himself.”

“What?” Liu Chun was shocked into senselessness. He tensed, his voice coming out hoarse, “What happened? How did Zhou Hengshan… you know?”

Liu Chun had known Zhou Hengshan; how could he not? He was his childhood friend’s twin brother. He remembered him to be wild and unruly – completely different from Hengyang..
