In 1977 at the Southwest Civil Aviation Airport, Su Xiaotang, a newly transferred ground crew in material statistics, suddenly became the "special concern" of Gu Tingshen, the "cold-faced pilot"—he would leave a box of warm toffee during her night shifts, walk three kilometers to bring her scarce vitamins, and even publicly pulled out his work manual to clear her name when she was falsely accused of stealing engine oil. But Su Xiaotang didn't know this "untouchable top pilot" at all. Until before a mission, Gu Tingshen handed her a yellowed old photo: a little girl with pigtails holding a paper airplane, standing at the wildfire scene where he saved her ten years ago. It wasn't a sudden crush—it was a decade-long obsession. But when Gu Tingshen was about to fly a Tibet aid mission, Su Xiaotang found his flight log: every page before takeoff read, "I must come back alive to see her."
