Lin Chuan, reborn to his senior year, was a fallen ace pilot in his past life. His mom, who sold their house to fund his repeat year, forces him to get into Tsinghua. But the wind on the playground reminds him of the cockpit’s roar. Until he meets Su Xiao—the grade’s top student, the “model repeater”—sneaking runs with an air force recruitment flyer. They pretend to be good students by day, practice fitness at dawn, and draw fighter jets on the rooftop. When his mom finds his application and sobs, “You’re ruining us!” when Su Xiao holds her Tsinghua offer and asks, “Me or the sky?” Lin Chuan touches his past-life pilot badge and shouts: “I’m flying! But this time, I’ll take you—let’s see the brightest stars in the sky together.”
