The intern taught a top-performing class, and the parents wanted to change the homeroom teacher.

He Yishi followed half a step behind Lu Qian, his heart pounding with anxiety.

From a young age, his parents told him to listen to his teachers at school and not to cause trouble.

This also shaped his honest character.

Although his grades weren't good, he did whatever the teacher asked him to do, so he never caused any trouble.

His teachers never spoke to him individually from childhood to adulthood.

Now that Lu Qian has called him out alone, he can't help but wonder if he has done something wrong at some point.

At that moment, he suddenly remembered something his junior high school classmate had said.

The longest road you've ever walked is the road to your homeroom teacher's office.

...

The math department office wasn't far, and we arrived quickly.

The office door was wide open, and several teachers were writing lesson plans inside.

He Yishi followed Lu Qian inside, his whole body tensing up as he looked at the smooth tiles.

Lu Qian placed a stool next to the desk, gesturing for He Yishi to sit down.

"Sit down, don't be nervous. We didn't call you out because you've done something wrong, we just wanted to have a chat."

He Yishi nodded, feeling slightly relieved.

Then we won't need to call the parents.

"Yishi, what are your goals for the future? Or is there anything you want to do?" Lu Qian asked.

He Yishi paused for a moment, scratched his head, and said, "Teacher, I don't know either. My family are farmers."

My dad said if I do well in my studies, I can get into a good university and stay in a big city to work; if I don't do well, I can go to a vocational college to learn a trade, and if all else fails, I won't starve if I go back home to farm.

Lu Qian nodded, sighing inwardly.

In those few short sentences, he seemed to see a microcosm of countless families.

"However..." He Yishi paused, somewhat hesitant, "I'm thinking of joining the army. It's stable and there's a stipend, but I don't know if my family will agree."

As he said this, he chuckled sheepishly, "Teacher, although I can't beat you in an arm wrestling match, I'm quite strong, which is an advantage for me in the army, I guess."

Join the army?

Lu Qian raised an eyebrow. This coincided with his own thoughts, except that the types of soldiers were different.

"Being a soldier is good, that's why I called you here."

"Are you nearsighted?" Lu Qian asked.

"Not nearsighted."

Have you had any surgeries or chronic illnesses since childhood?

He Yishi hesitated for a moment, "I remember there was no surgery. I don't know about chronic diseases, but there are no hereditary diseases in my family. My dad even said that I've always been healthy since I was a child, as strong as a calf."

Do you have large scars on your body?

"No, the abrasions from when I was a child are no longer visible."

Lu Qian nodded. "Has your family ever broken any laws or regulations?"

He Yishi's expression became somewhat conflicted. "Teacher, does it count if my dad used to argue with the neighbors? But he didn't lay a hand on them."

Lu Qian chuckled, "That doesn't count."

"Then that's all." He Yishi said nervously, "Teacher, why are you asking these questions?"

"Are you interested in the pilot recruitment I mentioned in class earlier?" Lu Qian asked with a smile.

"Huh?" He Yishi was stunned. "I'm going to apply for pilot training? To become a pilot?"

Lu Qian nodded, and He Yishi's panel appeared before his eyes.

[Name: He Yishi]

Gender: Male

Age: 17

[Talents: Math (poor), Chinese (average), English (very poor), Physics (poor), Chemistry (poor), Biology (passing)... Physical fitness (excellent)]

When Lu Qian first saw this talent, he thought this kid was suited to be a soldier. Now that he suddenly remembered the recruitment of pilots, he might as well try to be a pilot first, and if that doesn't work out, then he can join the army.

Joining the military and becoming a special forces soldier is still achievable.

If conditions are right, being a pilot would undoubtedly be the most suitable future career for He Yishi.

With excellent physical fitness, one can almost easily pass the physical fitness test for pilots.

He Yishi is honest and obedient; he doesn't seem to be the type to play tricks.

He has a typical appearance with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his physique is also quite good.

If someone actually passes the pilot exam, they'll be a treasure to the entire country.

"Yishi, based on my current observations, you have the potential to consider this direction," Lu Qian said.

He Yishi's heart began to pound.

His grades weren't good, but he wasn't stupid; he knew how valuable a pilot's degree was.

However, he had never considered this possibility before, and he didn't even take it to heart when Lu Qian publicly mentioned recruiting pilots during self-study class just now.

His first reaction was: Pilot, what an awesome profession, but it has nothing to do with me, it's so far removed from my life.

But now, Lu Qian is sitting across from him, saying he can try to go in that direction.

Even just trying it out was enough to excite this child from the countryside.

If I really become a pilot, wouldn't that be a great honor for my family?

After that, my parents felt more proud during the Chinese New Year!

Although his parents didn't pressure him to get a certain score, they always said: "It's okay, as long as you have some education, it's fine. Don't end up like your parents who only graduated from elementary school and don't even know some words."

At family gatherings, other uncles and aunts can show off their children's high scores.

Even though parents say that as long as their child is healthy, they must feel a little disappointed.

"Teacher, what should I do? Should I register?" He Yishi asked anxiously.

Lu Qian noticed that He Yishi was a little excited and smiled gently.

"Don't get excited. You're only a junior in high school. Flight recruitment is for seniors. I'm talking to you now so you can prepare."

"If you're interested, start protecting yourself from today."

"Don't get nearsighted, protect your health, and study hard."

"Pilots also need certain academic qualifications, including at least a first-tier university degree in physics."

Upon hearing that there were academic requirements, specifically for physics majors and above, He Yishi's expression froze.

One book or more, which translates to at least 500 points, or even more.

But he only scored 286 points in the last monthly exam.

It's almost half as bad.

Disappointment filled his restless heart.

Lu Qian patted his head and said, "Don't worry about your grades. As long as you work hard, I guarantee you can get into a top-tier university. Haven't your recent exam scores improved?"

"Besides, you don't know much about pilots."

Lu Qian chuckled and continued, "If you pass the Air Force pilot recruitment physical examination in your senior year of high school, the principal will assign a teacher specifically to help you improve your scores, even without my help."

"So, you just need to walk this path safely and steadily."

He Yishi nodded emphatically, "I understand, thank you, teacher."

"There's one more thing. You can't tell anyone else about these things, including your parents and classmates," Lu Qian instructed.

"The matter was accomplished in secrecy."

He Yishi was stunned. He had planned to call his parents that evening to share the good news.

But now they say it's a secret.

He didn't understand, but he was obedient; he knew that Teacher Lu was doing it for his own good.

"Teacher, I'll listen to you, I won't tell anyone!"
