Legendary Captain

Chapter 185 Coordinating Flight Line Inspection

"Uncle Yi? You're Uncle Yi's daughter?" Xu Xian had considered a million possibilities, but he never imagined that Li Jinyan was actually Li Xianyi's daughter.

Li Xianyi, Xu Qing's close friend, is the brother-in-law of Xingfei Airlines, which later merged with Lantian Airlines, acquired by Mei Tingting, to form the current Qingyuan Group. Currently, Li Xianyi is a director of the Qingyuan Group's board of directors.

"You finally remembered!" Li Jinyan said with a smile. "Do you have time today? It's been a long time, how about we have some tea together?"

"Now?"

"Yes! Do you have something to do today?"

"Nothing much, but what about the time and place?"

Li Jinyan: "I'll send the location to your phone. You can come over now. We'll just wander around the area. Let me know when you're almost there, and we'll head in that direction."

"Us? There are others?" Xu Xian asked.

"Yeah! Qin Yue, you know him. Oh, right! You brought your fiancée too, I haven't met her yet." Li Jinyan actually knew about Wen Jingshu.

After saying that, Li Jinyan added, "Don't lie to me! Is she there?"

Xu Xian grinned, paused for a moment, but still didn't lie: "Yes, let me ask her first!"

After saying that, Xu Xian turned to Wen Jingshu beside him and said, "A friend of mine wants to invite you for tea, would you like to go?"

"Friends? What kind of friends?" If they were just casual acquaintances, Wen Jingshu had no interest in showing her face in public. But if they were close friends, then Wen Jingshu felt it necessary to maintain the relationship.

"We've known each other since we were kids."

"You've known each other since childhood?" Wen Jingshu pouted. "Then let's go!"

After receiving Wen Jingshu's consent, Xu Xian replied, "Send us the address, and we'll head over right away."

"Together? That's interesting! I'll just text you!" After saying that, he hung up the phone. Not long after, Xu Xian received a text message on his phone. When he opened it, it was indeed an address with a store name attached.

Wen Jingshu leaned closer to take a look: "I know this place, it's not far, it only takes about ten minutes to get there."

"Okay, I'll send her a message." Xu Xian told Li Jinyan the arrival time directly, letting them calculate the time themselves to go back.

"Who is it?" Wen Jingshu couldn't help but ask curiously as the two went downstairs.

"Her father was one of the founding members of Qingyuan Group and had a life-or-death friendship with Uncle Qing. I had some contact with her family when I was a child, but it was so long ago that I had forgotten about it. Later, my family settled in Yunnan, and we had even less contact. When she first told me her name, I didn't even remember it."

Qingyuan Group was initially formed by the merger of Lantian Airlines and Xingfei Airlines. Lantian Airlines, due to poor management, was later acquired by Mei Tingting and Li Xianyi. Shortly after the acquisition, it was merged with Xingfei Airlines through Li Xianyi's connections. Because Xu Qing was the glue that held the founding team together, the group was named Qingyuan Group, meaning it originated from Xu Qing.

"I didn't know about such anecdotes before." Wen Jingshu showed a hint of interest.

Qingyuan Group rose to prominence so rapidly that in just twenty years it almost monopolized the entire civil aviation industry, from upstream to downstream—it's practically a business legend. Hearing the anecdotes from the early days of such a business empire is indeed quite interesting.

A teahouse in the city center.

When Xu Xian arrived, Li Jinyan and Qin Yue were already there. Li Jinyan waved to Xu Xian as he approached.

Among the crowd, Xu Xian spotted Li Jinyan waving at a glance and led Wen Jingshu directly over.

"Is this your legendary fiancée?" Li Jinyan noticed Xu Xian and the other person approaching, but most of his attention was focused on Wen Jingshu.

"What are you talking about? It's just a legend!" Xu Xian said irritably, pulling out a seat for Wen Jingshu first. After Wen Jingshu sat down, he sat down himself, appearing very gentlemanly.

"When you were little, your family always said you were born with good looks, and you've kept it all, plus you found such a beautiful wife. You're a winner in life!" Li Jinyan's gaze darted back and forth between Xu Xian and Wen Jingshu as Xu Xian and Wen Jingshu poured tea for him. "Tsk tsk tsk, they're both like celestial beings, what a perfect couple. Ah, and look at mine now."

Qin Yue, who was drinking tea next to him, stiffened and silently lowered his head, almost burying his face in the teacup.

Honestly, with Xu Xian and Wen Jingshu's looks, they're eye-catching wherever they go. In comparison, Li Jinyan and Qin Yue's pairing is slightly less attractive.

"If your family hadn't moved to Yunnan, we might all be one family now," Li Jinyan said with a smile.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" Wen Jingshu sensed something unusual.

"When I was a child, Xu Xian and I were almost betrothed, but later his family moved to Yunnan, and the matter was dropped."

"Is that so?" This time, Xu Xian's reaction was much stronger; he had absolutely no recollection of such a thing.

Li Jinyan spread her hands, her face completely innocent: "My elders thought you were good-looking when you were little, so they planned to keep you as my husband. I can't stop them!"

Xu Xian's face turned green: "So, I'm the child groom, huh?"

"Don't be angry, don't be angry, it's just something an elder says. It's fine if you're angry, but don't upset our Miss Wen." Li Jinyan looked at Wen Jingshu with a smile.

Wen Jingshu blushed slightly under Li Jinyan's gaze and quickly explained in a low voice, "It has nothing to do with me, I won't be angry."

"That's good!" Li Jinyan seemed to be more concerned about Wen Jingshu than Xu Xian.

Xu Xian had a feeling that he was just a tool!

"What's going on?" Xu Xian asked directly. Although he and Li Jinyan weren't particularly close, there was no need to beat around the bush. He couldn't help it; he felt extremely like he was being used.

"Is it really that obvious?" Li Jinyan chuckled, nudging Qin Yue beside her. "Am I really that obvious?"

Qin Yue glanced at him sideways: "It's practically written on your forehead."

Li Jinyan blushed slightly, a rare occurrence for him: "Ahem, well then I won't beat around the bush. Xu Xian, don't worry about it, I'm looking for your wife."

Xu Xian almost choked to death; he really was just used as a tool.

"What do you want?" Wen Jingshu had just answered when she felt a strange gaze on her side.

Xu Xian sneered: "You just agreed so naturally?"

Wen Jingshu remained expressionless and simply asked Li Jinyan, "What is it?"

"Here's the thing, this is your company's pilot." Li Jinyan said, nudging Qin Yue next to her, who looked unhappy.

"He transferred from Xingfei to Xingyou. Once I've settled things at home, he'll go back to Xingfei. At that time, could you please ask Sister Wen to let Qin Yue leave?" Li Jinyan finally revealed her purpose.

Changing airlines between captains is much more complicated than changing co-pilots. Of course, if Li Jinyan really wanted Qin Yue to return to Xingfei Airlines, she could easily pull some strings. However, if she just spoke to Wen Jingshu, everything would go much more smoothly, saving her from all the hassle.

Xu Xian was shocked: "Brother Yue, you came from Xingfei! That's not right! If you were in Xingfei, wouldn't you be living the high life? What are you doing here in Xingyou?"

Xingfei Airlines is practically the Li family's stronghold. With Li Jinyan, the eldest daughter of the Li family, protecting him, Qin Yue can practically do whatever he wants with Xingfei Airlines. Why would he need to switch to another airline?

Qin Yue understood Xu Xian's meaning, but his face showed only resentment!

"Brother! We'll talk about it later!" Qin Yue's expression was truly fascinating, conveying a complex mix of emotions.

"Oh, so you're having a secret conversation now?" Li Jinyan put his hand on Qin Yue's shoulder, a teasing smile on his face.

"Why can't we men have private conversations between women? What kind of logic is this? Is this discrimination against us men?" Qin Yue said righteously.

Li Jinyan snorted: "Whatever, you have to go back to Xingfei after I've talked to my family. Don't try to make excuses then, or I'll tie you up and bring you back."

Faced with the formidable Li Jinyan, Xu Xian glanced at Wen Jingshu and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Yue, on the other hand, was utterly embarrassed.

So he said impatiently, "Give me some face! How can you talk like that!"

"There are no outsiders here, so what's there to be afraid of? Besides, compared to what you did in Tianning, I've already been quite restrained."

Xu Xian became slightly interested: "What was he doing in Tianning?"

Snapped!

The one who answered Xu Xian was not Li Jinyan, but Qin Yue, who slammed his fist on the table.

"Dude, snooping on other people's privacy is no good habit!"

Xu Xian usually doesn't care much about what people he says to each other. After Qin Yue pointed this out, he realized that he might have hurt Qin Yue's feelings and immediately prepared to apologize.

Little did anyone know that Qin Yue, who had stood up, seemed to be so angry that he could not control himself and simply strode away.

"Are you really angry?" Xu Xian was startled by Qin Yue's behavior and immediately stood up to chase after him to apologize, but was pulled back by Wen Jingshu beside him.

As Xu Xian stood up, Li Jinyan also stood up at the same time.

Compared to Wen Jingshu's meticulousness, Li Jinyan seemed rather carefree, failing to realize that Qin Yue was acting, and even chased after him.

"Are you really angry!" Li Jinyan hugged Qin Yue's arm, feeling a little worried.

However, Qin Yue walked forward with his head down and expressionless, completely ignoring Li Jinyan.

This made Li Jinyan feel even more guilty, wondering if she had really hurt his pride just now.

How could she know that as Qin Yue walked forward, he slightly put his right hand behind his back and waved to Xu Xian, clearly saying goodbye to him?

"I told you, it's alright!" Wen Jingshu took a sip of tea, her eyes full of smiles.

Seeing Qin Yue's subtle actions, Xu Xian finally relaxed, only managing a wry smile: "What a pair of nemesis!"

"A strong woman and a strong man aren't always a good thing!" Wen Jingshu squinted at the cloudless sky. "Shall we leave now, or sit a little longer?"

"Sit a little longer." Xu Xian had just turned his gaze away when Li Jinyan's voice came from afar: "Xu Xian, your aunt is coming over in a while, remember to treat her well!"

The aunt Li Jinyan mentioned is Xu Qing's wife, Mei Tingting, who is the nominal head of Qingyuan Group.

"What happened?"

"They say they're going to attend some kind of internet summit. Anyway, you just need to figure out how to entertain them. I guess I'll be coming along too."

Xu Qing is a henpecked husband; unless there's a specific reason, he's always clinging to his wife.

"An internet summit?" Xu Xianzhen wondered if he had misheard. "When did the group start offering internet services?"

Qingyuan Group's main business is in civil aviation, with some logistics as well. Xu Xian had never heard of Qingyuan Group having any internet business.

"They say the group is going to transform, but I don't know the specifics! If my dad comes and meets Qin Yue, you should come over to ease the tension. That's settled then. If I need you, I'll call you!" Li Jinyan said to Xu Xian before leaving.

"Since you're in Yunnan, why aren't you in charge of entertaining them? I don't have any money!" From Li Jinyan's words, it was clear that she planned to stay in Yunnan for a while. In that case, why didn't the wealthy Li Jinyan entertain Xu Qing and his wife, instead making him, a poor man, entertain them? What if he was impolite because he was short of money?

Li Jinyan bluntly retorted, "You're the host! Besides, your uncle and aunt aren't the type to stand on ceremony, so what's there to be afraid of?"

Xu Qing and Mei Tingting are not the type of people who crave luxury in their food, clothing, and daily necessities. If Xu Xian were to entertain them, a few simple home-style dishes would suffice, and there would be no need to spend too much money.

That makes sense, but Xu Xian felt that doing so might seem too shabby.

While Xu Xian was pondering, Li Jinyan had already disappeared without a trace.

Xu Xian slowly sat down, pondered for a long time, and still couldn't understand why Qingyuan Group wanted to transform.

Xu Qing is now in his prime, and he makes an appearance from time to time. Qingyuan Group's position in the civil aviation industry is unshakeable. Isn't that just printing money?

But why start the transformation at this crucial juncture?

"What are you thinking about?" Xu Xian was lost in thought when Wen Jingshu caught him.

"Do you know about some kind of internet summit in Yunnan recently?" Xu Xian asked. The Wens Group is involved in a wide range of fields, and it's possible that the internet is among them.

Wen Jingshu nodded: "Yes, I know."

Who would attend that meeting?

"Almost every reputable internet company will send representatives, as well as other companies intending to enter the internet field," Wen Jingshu said. "She just said that Qingyuan Group is expanding its internet business? Qingyuan Group has an internet business? How come I didn't know that?"

Large domestic groups and enterprises generally know each other to some extent. In Wen Jingshu's memory, Qingyuan Group should not have any internet business, and Qingyuan Group is almost a leader in the civil aviation industry, so there should be no need for it to transform.

"That's strange! If Aunt Ting is coming, it means the group is indeed making serious plans, but this doesn't make sense!" Xu Xian was completely puzzled. "Could something have happened?"

Just as Xu Xian was wondering, his phone vibrated, as if he had received a message.

Xu Xian pointed it out and saw that it was a message from Lian Shanxue.

"I have a flight inspection next week, would it be convenient for you to fly with me?"

Xu Xian replied, "What level will I be promoted to?"

Almost without pausing, Lian Shanxue replied: "Level Three!"

"Level three, that means you're switching to the first co-pilot position!" Xu Xian muttered to himself, then immediately replied, "I'm fine with that. There's just one issue. Yesterday I had my ear pressed, causing bleeding in my eardrum. In theory, it should be fine by next week, but just in case, if my ear is still uncomfortable by then, we'll have to find someone else."

Promotion to Level 3 Co-pilot is a crucial step in the co-pilot career, and Xu Xian is very willing to help. Even Shan Xue herself probably isn't confident, so having Xu Xian along reduces her psychological pressure, even though Xu Xian might not actually be of much help.

During the initial modifications, Xu Xian had mentioned that he would assist Lian Shanxue. However, Lian Shanxue hadn't bothered Xu Xian since he was busy, so this was a good opportunity to make up for it.

Of course, Xu Xian's condition of tympanic membrane hemorrhage also needs to be clarified. Even if Xu Xian really wants to help, it can't come at the cost of his health. For pilots, health is the foundation of everything, and they must be extremely cautious.

Fortunately, Xu Xian's tympanic membrane hemorrhage was very mild, and barring any unforeseen circumstances, he should be fine by next week. However, nothing in this world is absolute, so it's necessary to give Lian Shanxue a heads-up beforehand, just in case something goes wrong and we can't keep our promise.

"If you're not feeling well, then it's okay. If you come along, I won't be as nervous. Actually, I'm flying by myself."

"It's nothing serious, just a very slight tympanic membrane hemorrhage. I had a cold yesterday and it was quite severe, so the pressure on my ear was quite bad."

"I see! Then I'll talk to the planning department."

Generally, it's against regulations for a co-pilot to designate their own inspector during a flight inspection. However, designating another co-pilot to accompany them is less of a problem. If Lian Shanxue talks to the planning department, there's likely to be no issue.

"Do you know who the inspector is?"

"Not yet, I'll ask Feibiao about it later."

Line inspection tests both the pilot's skills and the inspector's competence.

Some inspectors prefer manipulating techniques, some prefer procedural correctness, and some prefer decision-making flexibility. Different inspectors with different emphases may result in different inspection results for the same performance.

Therefore, it is essential to know in advance who the inspector is, and also to inquire about their style and focus.

"Okay, then I'll look forward to next week's plans. Feel free to ask me any questions."

Lian Shanxue replied with a grateful emoji.

"Oh ho, you're quite the helpful one!" Without her noticing, Wen Jingshu had already moved closer and secretly glanced at Xu Xian's phone screen. Seeing that Xu Xian and Lian Shanxue were exchanging messages, she immediately became sarcastic.

Xu Xian put away his phone: "She's helped me before, isn't it only right that I help her back?"

"It's only natural!" Wen Jingshu wrinkled her nose, quite dissatisfied.

"By the way, if you're staying in Yunnan for an extended period, will there be any issues with the group?"

Wen Jingshu wasn't in a good mood and replied casually, "My brother's watching over it, it's nothing serious."

"Oh! So how long are you planning to stay?" Xu Xian asked this question without any tact.

Wen Jingshu was taken aback, then her small mouth gradually parted to reveal her cute, playful little tiger teeth: "I'm not leaving!"

Three days later, on the first floor of the Star Travel Aviation Base building.

Xu Xian was required to fill out an interview form because he had been grounded for a period of time. This wasn't specifically for Xu Xian, but rather something that all grounded pilots had to fill out.

The so-called "interview form" is to meet with a flight department leader at the squadron leader level or above to have a talk with them, to talk about how they have deeply reflected on their mistakes during the suspension period, and how they will work hard to improve their skills in the future, etc.

After the perfunctory discussion, simply fill in the general content of the conversation on the meeting form and have the leader who arranged the meeting sign it.

Most of the time, the leaders we interview are assigned by Fei Biao; otherwise, those leaders would all be incredibly busy, though you wouldn't know what they're busy with all day long.

Fortunately, Xu Xian had a mentor who was the deputy general manager of the flight department. He directly called Qin Zongyang and asked him to be his supervisor for the meeting. So, Qin Zongyang took time out of his shift today to arrange the meeting for Xu Xian.

After finishing the meeting, Xu Xian was about to go back when he bumped into Lian Shanxue at the entrance of the flight preparation room on the first floor.

"How's the flight path inspection going?" Since they'd run into each other, Xu Xian decided to check in with Lian Shanxue first.

Lian Shanxue, however, first asked about Xu Xian's eardrum hemorrhage: "How are you feeling in your ear?"

"What could possibly happen to me? It was just a very minor blood clot, and I don't feel anything anymore," Xu Xian said with a smile.

"That's good!" Lian Shanxue said, her face darkening slightly. "I just asked Feibiao, and my inspector this time is Instructor Wang Lingkun. What should I do?"

Previously, Wang Lingkun was also slated to be the route inspector for Xu Xian's promotion from trainee to first-class co-pilot. However, Qin Zongyang used some methods to replace him with himself.

There was no way around it; Wang Lingkun's reputation was truly terrible. For everyone involved, having flight route inspections fall into his hands was a living hell.

"Damn, how did Feibiao end up with such an inspector for you?" Xu Xian also found it extremely troublesome. Encountering an inspector with such abnormal brain circuits is simply torture.

"Yes!" Lian Shanxue sighed as well. "I'm already prone to nervousness, and if I encounter Instructor Wang, I probably won't be able to perform at even half my usual level. How am I supposed to fly like that? Besides, Instructor Wang's judging criteria are really hard to figure out. Even if I fly well, I might still fail."

Although Lian Shanxue now spends a lot of time on filming, she still takes her flying career very seriously. She doesn't want to be just a pretty face, so she values ​​her advancement in flight skills. As a result, when it came time to become a first officer, she was assigned this inspector.

She wasn't asking for any special inspector, just a relatively normal one. Whether she passed or not depended entirely on her performance; if she failed, it was simply due to insufficient skill, and she wouldn't complain.

However, there are too many external factors involved in the inspection of Wang Lingkun. If he fails because of this, it would be a real injustice.

"That's one way of putting it," Xu Xian said, equally worried. Just then, crossing the snow-covered mountains, Xu Xian saw someone walking towards him. Upon closer inspection, it was Wang Lingkun.

"Sigh, I really have no confidence at all when I'm being examined by Instructor Wang." Lian Shanxue was unaware that Wang Lingkun was walking towards her and was about to pour out her grievances when Xu Xian pulled her hand, abruptly ending her words.

Xu Xian immediately greeted Wang Lingkun, "Instructor!"

Wang Lingkun glanced at Xu Xian, then at Lian Shanxue, grunted in agreement, and prepared to leave.

"Instructor, there's a flight path inspection in a few days." Xu Xianyan noticed that Wang Lingkun was about to leave, so he took the opportunity to tell Wang Lingkun about the flight path inspection.

It wasn't to say nice things to Wang Lingkun for the purpose of flight line inspection; it was just a habit.

Before each inspection, the person being inspected will call or send a message to the inspector to inform them of the type of inspection and the inspection time.

This doesn't have any special meaning; it's just a customary rule.

Doing it has little effect, but not doing it might leave a bad impression if you encounter some particular inspectors.

Now that he had run into Wang Lingkun, Xu Xian thought he might as well take the opportunity to briefly discuss the flight path inspection with Wang Lingkun, so that he wouldn't have to contact Wang Lingkun separately after Lian Shanxue.

Lian Shanxue spends most of her time in the marketing department and may not be very familiar with some of the rules in the pilot circle, so Xu Xiancai took the opportunity today to get this small matter done.

"Flight check?" Wang Lingkun stopped in his tracks. He vaguely remembered that the flight crew had told him that there would be a co-pilot he needed to check soon.

Looking at Xu Xian's smiling face, Wang Lingkun's own expression darkened: "Why are you getting promoted again?"

Xu Xian's previous forced landing on the Kunyang River caused a great uproar, and at that time, Xu Xian's technical level was also thoroughly investigated.

A co-pilot who had just been promoted to level three.

After the Kunyang River emergency landing incident, Xu Xian was grounded for three months. He has only recently resumed flying. How could he have accumulated enough experience and landed as a Level 4 co-pilot?

Wang Lingkun couldn't understand it!

Wang Lingkun had clearly misunderstood; he thought Xu Xian wanted to inspect the flight path with him.

In the past, everyone was afraid of Wang Lingkun, but now, if you ask who Wang Lingkun is afraid of, it is undoubtedly Xu Xian.

Not to mention that Xu Xian has an extremely protective and madman-like master, Xu Xian himself is currently embroiled in a lot of controversy, and he has absolutely no desire to get involved. He doesn't want to be associated with anything related to Xu Xian.

He had even started thinking about whether he should tell Fei Biao to pretend he was feeling unwell and ask them to replace him.

It's difficult to change inspectors in the passenger seat, but inspectors can proactively suggest changing personnel.

Just then, a voice emerged.

"What upgrade? Xu Xian, have you landed long enough?" Not far away, Qin Zongyang, who had come down for a stroll, bumped into them. Hearing Xu Xian and Wang Lingkun talking about flight path inspection and upgrade, he immediately contacted his apprentice.

Upon hearing that Xu Xian was going to be promoted again, Qin Zongyang was overjoyed, although he didn't understand how his apprentice had accumulated experience and time to get to where he was today.

"You old codger, are you going to check my apprentice again?" Qin Zongyang looked at Xu Xian with great satisfaction, but when he turned to Wang Lingkun, his tone immediately turned unfriendly: "Are those guys with the flying darts out of their minds? Don't they know how to assign inspectors?"

Xu Xian immediately realized that Qin Zongyang had misunderstood, and quickly said, "Master, you've misunderstood!"

But to everyone's surprise, Qin Zongyang pressed his right hand down on Xu Xian, signaling him to calm down: "Don't be impatient, disciple. Your master will take care of things for you."

As he spoke, he grabbed Wang Lingkun by the back of his collar and dragged him to a corner like he was a chick.

Xu Xian and Lian Shanxue were completely dumbfounded.

Dragging him to a corner, Qin Zongyang released his grip and glared fiercely at Wang Lingkun: "Tell me, did you do this on purpose? You were just angry about what happened before, that's why you told Fei Biao to schedule Xu Xian's flight path for you."

He had just been half-carried, half-dragged to this corner by Qin Zongyang, with two co-pilots watching from a short distance away; he had truly lost face. Wang Lingkun was furious: "Qin Zongyang, aren't you the general manager of the flight department? Don't go too far!"

"Am I being unreasonable? That's enough! I can treat you once, I can treat you a second time! Still trying to be tough? What's a tough nut to crack?" Qin Zongyang ignored Wang Lingkun's resistance: "Last time you used the excuse that you weren't feeling well, what excuse are you using this time? Your son's getting married? No, your son's already married! So it must be your grandson's wedding!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Lingkun nearly suffered a stroke on the spot: "My grandson is only twelve years old!"

"Who cares? Fei Biao and his gang don't know anyway!" Qin Zongyang didn't care how old Wang Lingkun's grandson was; he just needed an excuse. "Hurry up and call Fei Biao! I'll approve it right away!"

If an inspector needs to be replaced, Feibiao will send an email to the head of Feibiao or one of the two vice presidents. Once one of them approves, the matter is considered settled.

This procedure is basically just for show; almost no application is rejected.

"But I've already skipped an inspection once before. If I ask for a replacement again this time, won't it cause problems with my annual performance evaluation?" When Xu Xian was promoted to first-class co-pilot, Wang Lingkun had already temporarily replaced him. Would it be a bit too frequent to replace him again this time?

Qin Zongyang shrugged: "I'm not involved in this!"

"I'll fucking swear!" Wang Lingkun wanted to curse. "How about this, during the inspection I'll follow the standards exactly, without any favoritism, okay? Everyone follow the rules, and whether you pass or not depends on your apprentice's abilities!"

"What nonsense are you talking about? My apprentice was able to make an emergency landing on the Kunyang River, can you do it? If you can't, then you'll definitely be the one to make things difficult for him!" Qin Zongyang started acting like a rogue.

Wang Lingkun was truly exasperated with Qin Zongyang, that old bastard. So, he could only get things approved by Xu Xian? Forget about flying the flight path inspection; just have Xu Xian hand over the work order and transition logbook, and he can fill them out and approve them.

"That's enough. I'm an inspector, how can I promise a pass?" Wang Lingkun said unhappily.

Qin Zongyang's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood: "That definitely can't be said. The flight path inspections are definitely carried out according to the standards."

You can't say it, but you can do it this way.

Wang Lingkun had clearly given in.

"I really don't understand you. You know what your apprentice is capable of, so why are you afraid of a flight path inspection?" Wang Lingkun mocked.

Qin Zongyang immediately retorted, "You don't know anything! This is called foolproof!"

With that, Qin Zongyang swaggered back to Xu Xian, puffed out his chest, and boasted, "Disciple, it's all done."

Xu Xian smiled wryly: "Master, you've got it wrong! It wasn't me checking, it was her!"

"Huh?" Qin Zongyang froze for a moment. "It's her!"

"Yes, instructor! It was me who checked!" Lian Shanxue replied awkwardly.

"What? It's not Xu Xian!" Upon hearing this, Wang Lingkun immediately exploded, "Qin Zongyang, are you senile? Can't you get your facts straight?!"

So all that humiliating scene of being dragged and pulled by Qin Zongyang just now was for nothing?

Qin Zongyang retorted sharply, "You didn't even understand the situation just now, did you? How dare you criticize me?"

Wang Lingkun was speechless. He had indeed thought it was Xu Xian who was conducting the examination.

"Lianshan Snow, right?" Qin Zongyang asked with a smile.

Lian Shanxue quickly replied, "Yes, instructor!"

"What's your relationship with Xu Xian?" Qin Zongyang then asked.

"Huh?" Lian Shanxue was caught off guard by the question: "Teacher, we are just friends."

"My friend!" Qin Zongyang's smile widened, and he turned to Wang Lingkun, saying, "The agreement we made earlier still stands, only the person involved has changed—it's her!"

Have even longtime readers forgotten who Li Xianyi is?

He was the second male lead in the previous book, after all! Haha.
