「Three days later, in the early morning.」
Accompanied by a droning sound that grew from a distant buzz, four Cub planes landed smoothly on the runway, one after another.
The friction between the planes and the runway kicked up a spray of snow.
The cabin doors opened slowly, and Yves, along with the veterans returning from Lengwan, disembarked one by one.
Their eyes showed the fatigue of a long journey, but their faces revealed the smiles of coming home.
Feng Shan was already waiting by the side of the runway, a warm, enthusiastic smile on his face to welcome them back.
"Daddy!"
Fiona, dressed like a little bear, toddled forward and threw herself into Yves's arms.
Seeing his daughter's affectionate expression, Yves's exhaustion from the long trip vanished in an instant. He held his daughter and walked over to Feng Shan.
"Boss!"
"Welcome back, my friend. Hope the trip was smooth." Feng Shan smiled, patting Yves on the shoulder in a gesture of deep camaraderie.
