[bunniefuu]

Thanks for your help.

[Episode 22]
[Severe Withdrawal]

We're running out of time. Eat up.
Or you'll be late for school.

Sweetie, listen.

- You can't just eat meat and skip the veggies.
- Why not?

If so, you won't be able to, you know, go.

I go just fine!

Come on, yesterday you were straining.

Dad.

I'm going out.

Don't worry.

Mr. Fu, everyone's here. Let's get started.

I will now announce
the disciplinary decision

regarding the improper use
of deceleration equipment

on Hengshi Air Flight 5123,
Rong City to Jiang City, on July 21, 2025.

During the flight, the captain in command,
Yue Yang, suffered a sudden incapacitation.

First Officer...

First Officer Ruan Si Xian declared Mayday
and performed the landing.

After touchdown, reverse thrust was
retracted earlier than the prescribed time,

creating a risk of runway excursion
under adverse weather conditions.

Ruan Si Xian failed to conduct a comprehensive
assessment of weather conditions,

thereby placing the lives and property
of the passengers on board at risk.

In summary, Hengshi Air will issue
a suspension of flight duties

to Ruan Si Xian.

Hengshi Air Safety Committee,

August 3rd, 2025.

What's with that look on your face?

Nothing. Nothing at all.

What should we do next?

I don't know.

- Maybe keep the distance?
- "Keep the distance"?

Speed up the reform process!

Right, the reform process.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Captain Yue, are you feeling better?

Much better.

It's just...

I didn't expect this to
cause so much trouble.

Glad you're recovered.

Health is what matters most.

Yeah.

- If there's nothing else, I'll get going.
- Actually, there is.

Go ahead.

Well,

I've talked to the Safety
Committee about this.

But they just told me to rest and recover,
and they'd handle the investigation.

I never expected them to investigate
and end up with this result.

I'm truly sorry.

You don't need to apologize to me.

And if you feel the result is unfair,

- you can file an appeal.
- I can't do that.

This is a company-wide decision.

If I were to appeal,
I'd be going against the airline.

I don't want to, and I don't dare to.

Then why are you telling me all this?

Partly an apology.

But I also need to explain.

What happened that day
was a sudden emergency.

I had no control over it.

And now the whole company is blaming me.

I feel...

wronged.

So, you feel wronged.

Is that why you asked me here today?

- To vent your frustrations?
- More like to open up.

Because I feel like our recent experiences
have been similar.

Look, we've both hit problems at work
and in our personal lives too.

I've already made things clear
with Jiang Zi Yue.

And you and Mr. Fu...

Actually, about you and Mr. Fu,

I have something to say.

You know, if two people want to last,
first they need to be well-matched.

Then there's family, education, background,

- shared interests...
- Captain Yue.

My relationship with Fu Ming Yu
is a private matter.

We had an amicable breakup,

and it seems to have nothing to do with
what we're talking about today.

No, it doesn't.

But I don't want to see a pretty girl
waste her time, you know?

Honestly,

you are a pilot
with a great image, ability, and potential.

I really admire you.

And I like you too.

I mean, a beautiful girl like you...

Everyone feels like getting closer
to a pretty girl, right?

But I have my principles.

If anything I did before
made you uncomfortable, I apologize.

I'm sorry.

So if there's anything you need on
this matter, I can take responsibility.

Because I do have a
sense of responsibility.

First of all,

I didn't do this for you,

and I don't need anyone
to take responsibility for me.

Second...

Forget it.

That's all.

Well, since we've gotten this far,
let me ask you one more thing.

I've been wanting to ask this for a while.

Jiang Zi Yue and I ended up like this.

Does it have anything to do with you?

Captain Yue,

about why you and Jiang ended up like this,
you know better than anyone, don't you?

You brought up responsibility just now,

so you should know
that as the captain in command,

if you had any sense of responsibility,

you wouldn't have stayed silent
and refused to face it.

And whether in relationships or at work,

in my view,
you've got zero sense of responsibility.

I haven't touched this coffee.

You ordered it, so you take care of it.

Yang, if you're not feeling well,
go to the restroom.

Go cough it up properly.

You're making noise every few seconds.

If my hand slips, do you have
any idea how bad things would be?

- How bad?
- It'll be done for.

I'm done for.

What's this?

- Photocard decorating.
- What?

Photocard decorating. It's a handicraft.

Then why are our faces on them?

Because I ship you two.
I'm a shipper of Ruan Si Xian and you.

What does that mean?

It means she's a loyal fan
who supports you two being together.

They're upside down.

Where did you get the photos?

I took yours without you noticing.

"Captain" Ruan has photos online,

so I downloaded them and made stickers.

Should I be praising your dedication?

Sit down.

What are these even for?

Nothing practical.

Just commemorating my favorite couple
that broke up.

Hoping they'll get back together someday.

I let the snacks slide,

but now you're sitting here
making these at work.

If someone else walks in,
how am I supposed to explain this?

Never mind whether it makes me
look like an incompetent manager.

Won't everyone think
I'm some lovesick idiot?

- Yes.
- "Yes"?

No, you're not a lovesick idiot.

Confiscated.

Mine too. Here.

Hello, here are your snacks.

Thank you.

Xuan, where's my sister?

Sister, don't be sad.

I know you've lost a lot, but you have
to remember, you've always got us.

We'll always have your back.

What are you doing?
Watch out, my clothes will be stained.

What's up with you?

Wait.

You're not crying?

Why would I be crying?

You got grounded, you
went through a breakup,

and you're not crying?

Have some duck necks.

If you look at it that way,
getting grounded isn't so bad after all.

I'm stealing a sip of your unlimited drink.

Easy on that. You're a lightweight.

I thought you'd be a complete mess.

I had a whole speech
prepared to cheer you up.

Guess you don't need it.

Cheer up about what?

I'm quite happy.

I finally get my mentor now.

When it comes to life,
the outcome doesn't matter that much.

When I watched those passengers
getting off the plane safely,

I wanted to high-five
every single one of them.

What's more, that night,
I got to see my friends and family again.

In that moment,
I felt like it was all worth it.

Whatever the outcome, I can handle it.

I went to the airport that night too,
but I was stuck outside.

Did my brother-in-law tell you?

Brother-in-law?

Former brother-in-law.

I'm renovating my hotel,
and I'm short on funds,

so I have to keep the sweet talk going.

How much did he give you to win you over?

Money isn't the point.

The point is, family helps each other out.

Family?

- You and him are family?
- What are you talking about?

You and I are family.

Since when are we family?

When did this happen?

The night your plane almost went down,
the whole family was worried sick.

Mom scalded her foot

and still rushed to the airport
in the pouring rain, wearing slippers.

That's a really hurtful thing to say.

She scalded her foot?

I told her to sit down and rest,
but she wouldn't.

She said when you were little,

she always had to be the first one
at the kindergarten gate to pick you up.

So that night, she wanted you to see her
the moment you got off the plane.

Auntie Dong. Over here.

Sister, there's always been a room for you
at home.

I thought you'd come live with us.

I was nervous back then.

My grandmother said once you came,
my dad wouldn't love me as much anymore.

That was not what I cared about.

I was just afraid that once you came,

I'd lose my mom again.

That sounds selfish,
but she's such an amazing mom.

I never met my own mother.

She passed away during childbirth.

I don't know what it feels like
to be loved by a mom.

Then Mom came,

and I always felt like
part of her love for me

was really meant for you.

But that night, for the first time, I
understood what a mother's love feels like.

She stood there the whole night

waiting for news
that your plane had landed safely.

She couldn't even stand on her own. My dad
and I had to hold her up on either side.

When I touched her
hand, it was freezing cold.

And I thought,

was it this cold
the last time my own mother touched me?

Why are you telling me all this?

No use pretending.

You two clearly care about each other.

Why are you so stubborn?

I'm not stubborn.

I'm used to being alone.

You're not used to being alone.

You're used to pushing everyone away
when things get hard.

Isn't that what you did
with Fu Ming Yu this time?

Eat. You talk too much.

Good morning, board members
and department heads.

Today we are holding the 11th meeting
since the QAR reform began two years ago.

This reform has been difficult and lengthy,
but it is crucial to Hengshi Air.

The QAR is an objective record of
pilots' actual flights,

allowing us to identify systemic issues
through big data

and improve the company's safety quality...

- Hurry up.
- Do you have to move it yourself? Let me.

Put the painting here. In the center.

One order of cold noodles, please.

Got it. Coming right up.

Welcome. We saved
the quietest rooms for you.

You'll sleep great tonight.

Check them in.

Hello.

Regarding the handling of lithium battery
smoke and fire emergencies on our aircraft,

the first thing is to follow the golden rule:
flying the aircraft is the first priority.

If necessary, transfer controls
to the crew member

on the side opposite the fire.

[Flight Schedule]

Here it comes.

- Everyone, look up.
- So beautiful.

- Come on.
- Look this way.

- Come on.
- Take a photo.

Look over there.

Come on.

Take one for me too.

- Come on.
- My eyes were closed. One more.

One, two, three.

You should get along well with the purser.

So much for our morning session.

Please head to the cafeteria for lunch.

We'll resume an hour later.

Thank you for your hard work.

Mr. Fu, Chairman Fu just called
to ask about the meeting.

Would you like to call him back now?

Let's not tell him until we have results.

Understood.

Thanks.

I didn't expect you to show up today.

What do you mean by that?

I'm here representing Bo'ao Air.

I never slack off on work.

Don't start with that.

Honestly though, I don't get it.

Why go against these people?

Is the reform of flight quality monitoring
necessary?

It's a lot of work with nothing
to show for it. Why bother?

Besides, these people
are a bunch of stuck-in-the-mud relics.

You can't beat them.

Whether I can beat them or not,
I'll have to try.

Besides, these rules have been in place
for over 20 years.

Many don't match today's aircraft
and flight technology anymore.

Is there a hidden motive?

Are you trying to win back Ruan Si Xian?

Yes.

Then why go through all this trouble?

Let me help you out.

I have years of experience in this.

When a girl's mad, whatever the reason,
you'll never figure out what you did wrong.

The only thing you need to do is kiss her.

Kiss her like you mean it. Kiss her
like crazy. Kiss her, and you're done.

Only after you kiss her will you understand
that girls love that.

- Are you done?
- No.

Don't be late.

I've mentioned that QAR is an
objective record of pilots' actual flights,

allowing us to identify systemic issues
through big data

to improve our company's
flight safety quality.

In the early days, it did play a positive and
constructive role in standardizing operations.

But in recent years,

there's been an increasing tendency to use
punishment as a substitute for management.

It has become a tool
for going after pilots.

I wonder if any of you have felt this way.

Its impact...

Everything is ready.

Amazing!

Make sure everything is set up.

Tonight's make-or-break.

The runway edge light incident.

- Okay.
- What do these incidents tell us?

- They all point to one thing.
- Good luck.

The management of the QAR...

- I'll be right there.
- Has put the cart before the horse.

We're running out of time.
How's everything coming along?

Almost done.

- Who did the drinks? They're not right.
- I did. What's wrong with them?

Come on, it's a proposal, a joyous
occasion. You didn't make a heart shape?

Don't you think heart
shapes are a bit tacky?

I want a heart shape. Tacky is fine.

You know a heart shape
is an upside-down butt, right?

Spare me the details.

We're running out of time.
Do it. Make me a butt shape.

Dong, we need to push all the instruments
back a bit and leave more space, okay?

We've got a problem.

Someone's at the door.

Looks like Zheng You An.

- She's onto us?
- What should we do?

- Stop her. Quick.
- Xuan, get me a drink.

You An! What a coincidence.

I'm going to the beach for some juice.

Let's go together. Come on.

The beach at this hour?

It's way too sunny. Let's drink here.

Well, look.

My new dress. Pretty, right?
Take a couple of photos for me?

- It's pretty. I'll do it after I have a drink.
- Now, please.

Si Xiao Zhen, you're
acting really weird today.

What's over there?

Xuan,

owner of the pub,

your business is expanding.

You're even doing weddings now.

I have a friend who...

Stand up straight.

Si Xiao Zhen, go.

Everyone, stop.

Stand up.

Stand straight.

First you make me do full makeup,
then you tell me to dress up nice.

What, is my "casual friend"
about to propose to me?

No, not that.

You said it yourself. He's a casual friend.

I'm really good at keeping secrets.

I have to keep it for my client.

I won't say a word.

- Right.
- Fine.

But to be honest,

this whole thing you're doing with Yan An
is way too tacky.

Yeah, I do think so.

So, do you want to follow my lead and
make this proposal a lot more interesting?

That's all I have to say.

Let's take a break.

Come on. Come here.

Finally, you're done.

Come to the pub with me later.

It's my lifelong event.
Tonight's make-or-break.

You can see how busy I am. I don't
have time for your personal affairs.

Come on, Fu Ming Yu.

We've been friends for so many years.

Think about all the times
I've helped you out. Do the math.

I need you this once.
Are you going to bail on me?

Look, man. You can see
I'm in no mood for this.

Ruan Si Xian will be there.

My dear friends,

we have only this one chance,
so please keep sharp. Got it?

- Stay sharp!
- On it.

When You An gets here,
don't fuss with these things anymore.

Let's all gather over here.

- Don't worry.
- The music needs to build from soft to strong.

Really set the mood.

Please.

And the petals.
Make sure they're falling everywhere.

- Blissful, you hear me?
- No problem.

- Got it?
- No problem.

Fu Ming Yu, you...

You're useless.

Anyway, the atmosphere has to be right.

You got it.

This isn't a drill, friends.

Keep sharp. When You An walks in,
make her feel like a princess.

Petals everywhere, and everyone moves in.

Everyone, heads up. She's coming!

- Hurry!
- Go!

False alarm. It's Ruan.

Scared me.

When You An comes in, you know what to say.

- Will do.
- Quick! Look over here.

Easy.

This is not a drill.

- It's the real deal!
- She's coming!

She's here!

I never expected this. I'm so touched.

Zheng You An.

Are you impressed?

- Impressed.
- Do you like it?

I do.

Zheng You An,

marry me.

Marry him!

Marry him!

Marry him!

Marry him!

Yan An.

I'm here.

I...

I won't.

Can you stop doing things
that only make yourself feel good?

Think about what I want.

Also, are these real flowers?

How much did you spend?
Can you please save some money?

Take them back to my hotel later.

Friends, you didn't come here
for nothing today.

It's been a while
since we all got together like this.

Let's treat tonight like a party, okay?

- Okay!
- All right then.

Mr. Yan, everyone's in a good mood.

How about we take a group photo?

Let's do that. Photo first.

Come on. Let's take a photo.

Come on.

Take a photo. Come here.

Photo time, you two.

Use my tripod. You
press the shutter for us.

- Do you know how?
- How can you do this to me?

Stand still. Be good.

Check the shot. Are we all in the frame?

Yes.

Smile, everyone.

Three.

Two.

One.

Yan An,

between us,

you're always the one who gives more.

You're not creative,
but you always try to give me surprises.

I know you're not confident about
whether we can last.

But you know what?

Every time I hit a rough patch,
you're the one right there beside me.

Yan An, I have a long-term
partnership plan for us.

Are you interested?

I am!

Let's get married, Yan An!

- Say yes!
- Say yes!

- Say yes!
- Say yes!

I do.

- Which hand?
- This one.

Where's mine?

Hurry up.

You bought such a big one.

Kiss!

I've got the photos from last time.

Want to take a look?

Pick one.

Tonight was pretty dramatic.

Did you know about the plan?

No.

Neither did I.

I didn't even know you were coming.

So if you'd known I was coming,
would you not have come?

Yan An said you've been busy
and wouldn't come to his proposal.

I wasn't planning to come,

but he said you'd be there,

so I came.

By the way, I bought a house.

Your family's old house?

Congratulations.

You finally got what you wanted.

I should've saved more before buying it,
but I was afraid it'd be too late.

The old house could be demolished any time.

I was afraid that by the time
I saved enough, it'd be gone.

What about us?

I must say, this one
turned out pretty good.

I'll take this one.

You keep it.

You know what I want to ask.

It doesn't matter.

What matters is that you're doing well
and not working too hard.

About the reform, if it's
really too difficult, then let it go.

I've only recently realized
that in the adult world,

things are not simply about yes or no.

Many things have their own trajectory.

You even have to take detours
to reach some goals.

But thankfully, in this world,

as long as you keep moving forward,
there will always be a way.

Keep it.

Look forward.

I'm almost home. Bye.
