“Second Brother cares about his parents, and Uncle and Aunt care about Second Brother too. But no one can truly know what others are thinking. When we express our feelings in a hurry without proper communication, misunderstandings arise. We’re all family, not class enemies. Some issues can simply be resolved by sitting down together, opening up, and talking.”

In Chinese families, expressing feelings silently is common, leading to a lack of communication, misunderstandings, and generation gaps. Nonetheless, this doesn’t mean there is no love. What Dong Yi said about Second Brother, from her unique perspective, could be considered half-right and half-wrong. For Father Yu and Mother Yu from their generation, they have already accomplished a lot, and they shouldn’t be judged by the standards of the younger generation.

“If everyone could be perfectly good, there would be no need for psychologists. One rice grain raises a hundred different people, and it’s because people are so different that the world is colorful and diverse. Otherwise, wouldn’t millions of families all live the same way? Ultimately, this is about love and being loved, but not expressing it well.”

“Pfffft, you little girl, don’t act like a peacemaker! You’re so cheesy…” Father Yu was still angry, but his emotional state had softened a bit.

Xiao Qian didn’t get angry and just laughed.

“I’m just telling the truth, Uncle. From a psychologist’s perspective, although there are some communication barriers between Second Brother and all of you, a family with a twisted atmosphere and no love couldn’t possibly raise a responsible man like Second Brother. Why does he care so much about all of you? Isn’t it because he’s attached to his family? In your situation, if there were no deep feelings, you would already hate each other instead of blaming yourselves.”

Xiao Qian’s intervention eased the tense atmosphere a little.

Dong Yi also stopped crying and thought for a while, “I’m sorry, I went a bit too far just now.”

“Humph, you little yellow-haired girl, you’re the first person to ever dare to criticize me so directly.” Father Yu snorted. Yu Mingyi glanced gratefully at Xiao Qian, impressed with her ability to smoothly and tactfully make her points.

“But I stand by what I said. Please allow Uncle to choose whatever he likes!” Dong Yi bowed her head, then forgot that she was still recovering from a concussion, and blacked out as she leaned forward. Xiao Qian quickly held her up.

“You should rest and recuperate. Yu Mingyi, you, come with me back to the office!” Father Yu pointed at Yu Mingyi. Dong Yi wanted to say something, but Xiao Qian put a piece of fruit in her mouth. By the time Dong Yi took it out, Father Yu and Yu Mingyi had left.

“Boss Qian—- ”

“Don’t say anything. You’ve already said enough.” Xiao Qian made a hushing gesture.

Mother Yu scooped a bowl of soup for Dong Yi, “Thank you, little girl. If it weren’t for you, we wouldn’t know what’s going on with Second Brother.” “Grandmother, I didn’t mean to be disrespectful to you. I just…” Dong Yi felt a bit of regret for being too blunt just now, especially since Mother Yu was so kind to her now.

She could have expressed herself more tactfully, lacking Xiao Qian’s skills.

“It’s okay, I understand that you were worried about Second Brother. It’s just that we didn’t communicate with him enough.”

From a young age, Second Brother Yu was understanding, and Father and Mother Yu thought he knew everything without having to talk about it. They never expected their child to be in such pain.

“Aunt, it’s okay. Don’t blame yourself. All families have their bumps and hurdles. This is all so normal. Perhaps after talking with Uncle, Second Brother can open his heart and resolve these issues.”

“I hope so.” Mother Yu sighed, unsure whether her husband would now explode in anger at Second Brother.

Yu Mingyi sat in his father’s car, and the driver took them to his workplace, the airport.

“I’ll give you some time. Go change your clothes. I’ll wait for you in half an hour.”

“Dad, what are you going to do?” Yu Mingyi was clueless about his father’s intentions.

“Just follow orders! Stop asking so many questions!”

Yu Mingyi changed into his uniform and went to the airport, where he unexpectedly found that his father had also put on the clothes and helmet he only wore when flying.

Upon hearing that Father Yu had arrived, all the leaders of the unit gathered. Father Yu had made great contributions to the unit back in the day. As Father Yu gave a speech, he saw Yu Mingyi approaching and called out an order.

“Yu Mingyi!”

“Here!”

“Prepare for takeoff!”

“Yes, sir!” Yu Mingyi followed his father onto the airplane.

The unit leaders looked at each other.

“What is Old Yu up to…?” One leader asked, puzzled by his sudden desire to fly.

“What a model of fatherhood. Like father, like son,” another leader remarked, watching the Yu family father and son board the plane.

As they boarded the two-seat training aircraft together, this marked the first time Yu Mingyi had shared a cockpit with his father. He felt an indescribable sensation in his heart.

Since childhood, he knew that his father was an impressive pilot. It was when he was only a few years old that he told his father he wanted to fly planes when he grew up. His father was delighted and carried him on his shoulders. Now that he had actually become a pilot, he had never had a moment like this until now – side by side with his father in the cockpit.

Following the established procedures for takeoff, the tense silence continued between father and son as the aircraft ascended to the sky.

Looking at his son’s skillful operation, Father Yu finally spoke.

“You really hate flying and the blue sky?”

“Actually, not really…” Yu Mingyi didn’t know how things had turned out this way.

At first, when he joined the unit and took his first flight, he was thrilled. But for some reason, over the past two years, the stress became increasingly unbearable, especially after marrying Wang Xiaohong. He often became upset for no reason.

“I hated it at times too.”

Father Yu’s words shocked Yu Mingyi, who had always believed that his father was the kind of man who would pour his last drop of blood onto the sky.

“To outsiders, pilots seem extraordinary, but let them try it themselves! Cooped up in such a small space, you’re constantly on high alert mentally and dressed like a dumpling. It looks cool to wear the uniform, but many can’t even stand it for a moment! They say our salaries are high, but that’s because we earn it with our lives. Pilots deserve this treatment!”

Yu Mingyi nodded, his father had never mentioned any of this before, and he found it quite relatable.

“Your youngest uncle thinks we’re just flying around like birds all day, but he doesn’t know what it’s really like.”

“Yeah, especially when we’re grounded, we’re treated by ground personnel like grandsons. They control our every move, and it’s so suffocating. The cockpit is so small, and we’re always being controlled.”

“Exactly, that’s the feeling.”

Suddenly, the distance between them seemed to close.

“Only when the plane takes off and breaks through the clouds, there’s a moment of pure exhilaration. Haha, no one can control us then. We rule the sky, and all our troubles are left on the ground! Soaring into the sky, I am the N0.1 in the sky!” Father Yu boasted proudly.

Yu Mingyi was speechless – his father had such a childish side to him?
