Story Transcript:
Zh: 北京首都国际机场的大厅里，行人匆匆。
En: In the hall of Beijing Capital International Airport, travelers hurried about.
Zh: 咖啡的香气在空气中飘荡，行李箱的滚轮在地板上轻轻划过。
En: The aroma of coffee floated in the air, and the wheels of suitcases glided softly over the floor.
Zh: 八月的阳光从窗户洒进来，给这繁忙的下午增添了一丝温暖的感觉。
En: The August sunshine streamed in through the windows, adding a touch of warmth to the busy afternoon.
Zh: 在一个角落里，连和小宁站在一起，脸上带着复杂的表情。
En: In one corner, Lian and Xiao Ning stood together with complex expressions on their faces.
Zh: 连刚刚在海外找到了一份新工作，准备离开北京。
En: Lian had just found a new job overseas and was preparing to leave Beijing.
Zh: 小宁是连最好的朋友，虽然心里充满不舍，但她知道，这对连来说是个重要的机会。
En: Xiao Ning was Lian's best friend, and although her heart was full of reluctance, she knew this was an important opportunity for Lian.
Zh: “连，你一定可以的。”小宁微笑着，对连说道。
En: "Lian, you can definitely do it," Xiao Ning said with a smile.
Zh: 她希望自己的话能给连信心，同时掩饰自己心中的忧伤。
En: She hoped her words would give Lian confidence while hiding her own sadness.
Zh: 连点了点头，心里却有些矛盾。
En: Lian nodded, but felt a bit conflicted inside.
Zh: 她对即将到来的新生活感到兴奋，却也担心自己的决定是否正确。
En: She was excited about the new life ahead but also worried whether her decision was correct.
Zh: 她舍不得这片熟悉的土地和身边的朋友，但她知道，这是她追逐梦想的一部分。
En: She was reluctant to leave this familiar land and her friends, but she knew this was part of chasing her dreams.
Zh: 广播里传来了最后登机的提醒，连的心跳得更快了。
En: The final boarding call echoed over the speakers, and Lian's heart beat faster.
Zh: 她差点就想放弃，留在北京。
En: She almost wanted to give up and stay in Beijing.
Zh: 就在这时，小宁握住了她的手。
En: Just then, Xiao Ning took her hand.
Zh: “连，你知道吗？”小宁的声音轻轻的，却很坚定，“无论你去哪里，我都会为你加油。
En: "Lian, do you know?" Xiao Ning said softly but firmly, "No matter where you go, I'll be cheering for you.
Zh: 追逐梦想的人，总是最勇敢的。”
En: Those who chase their dreams are always the bravest."
Zh: 连深吸一口气，她知道小宁说得对。
En: Taking a deep breath, Lian knew that Xiao Ning was right.
Zh: 这是她追求的机会，她不能退缩。
En: This was her chance to pursue her dreams, and she couldn't back down.
Zh: 她给了小宁一个大大的拥抱，然后拿起行李走向登机口。
En: She gave Xiao Ning a big hug, then picked up her luggage and headed to the boarding gate.
Zh: “再见，小宁。”连挥了挥手，泪水在眼中闪烁。
En: "Goodbye, Xiao Ning," Lian waved, tears glistening in her eyes.
Zh: “我们一定会再见的。”小宁站在原地，目送连的背影消失在登机口。
En: "We'll definitely meet again," Xiao Ning stood there, watching Lian's figure disappear into the boarding gate.
Zh: 她的心里虽然有些沉重，但更多的是骄傲和对朋友的祝福。
En: Her heart felt heavy, but she was filled more with pride and well-wishes for her friend.
Zh: 当飞机缓缓离地，升空飞向远处的天空时，小宁知道，连会迈向一个更美好的未来。
En: As the plane gradually took off, soaring into the distant sky, Xiao Ning knew Lian was embarking on a brighter future.
Zh: 而她，也在这个告别中学会了支持朋友的梦想。
En: And she herself had learned how to support a friend's dreams through this farewell.
Zh: 在这个夏天的下午，两个朋友用自己的方式找到了新的力量。
En: On this summer afternoon, the two friends found new strength in their own ways.
Zh: 虽然世界很大，但心距彼此从未远离。
En: Though the world is vast, their hearts never drift far apart.
