Chapter 179: Chapter 180: This Matter Has Gotten Serious
Translator: 549690339
Xiao Qian obviously couldn’t really book a room, so Yu Mingyi drove her and Dong Yi straight to the company guesthouse.
The guesthouse was near Second Brother’s work unit. Dong Yi stared jealously at the airplanes in the sky, as she really wanted to be a pilot.
“Second Brother, do you also have psychological tests during your physical examination?” Xiao Qian asked.
Yu Mingyi nodded while driving, “Yes. During the recruitment, we have strict assessments. If you have a good mental quality, you can get extra points.”
Dong Yi immediately felt discouraged, as she was not only a little nearsighted, but also doubted her mental fitness would pass the test.
“What projects do you have for pilot recruitment? Are there any game consoles?” Xiao Qian was very curious about this question.
She had treated many patients but had not been able to verify this as she had not dealt with any pilots. However, she had heard that there seemed to be something like this in the recruitment process.
“What?” Second Brother seemed a little confused.
“The special ability section in the recruitment process is not described in great detail in the books.” That’s why Xiao Qian was very curious.
“Are you talking about the flight simulation during the recruitment process?”
There were throttle and joystick controls, and you sat in a chair, watching the screen and simulating flying an airplane, which was a bit like a computer game.
“Yeah, that’s it. I’ve always wondered if there are enemy bombers on the screen and you have to shoot them down. Whoever scores higher is eligible.” If that were the case, her playboy patient, Chen Zilong, might be able to score full points.
“There’s no shooting down enemy planes, but during the flight simulation, you have to answer math questions. You have to do mental calculations quickly and choose the answer with your left hand.”
Multitasking is a basic requirement.
When Yu Mingyi talked about these things, he spoke a little more. Dong Yi admired how Xiao Qian could communicate with all kinds of people so easily, as Dong Yi didn’t have that same ability as Xiao Qian.
“You have to do math problems while flying the plane?”
“Yes. After pilots go up in the air, they need to handle a lot of things independently, and they have to be able to see everything clearly.”
Yu Mingyi answered the question earnestly.
Xiao Qian’s thoughts, however, were a bit less proper.
In a past life, when she was dating Ming Lang, he used to boast that his old unit had provided basic training in Aviation Piloting Skills. He claimed that his special ability score was perfect, and he could multitask with no problem at all. Unfortunately, they were only allowed to operate gliders and not airplanes.
Ming Lang believed he could fly a plane while performing some indescribable activities without any pressure. These were all just boasts from Xiao Qiang in his previous life, and Xiao Qian didn’t believe them at all.
But as she looked at Second Brother Yu’s steady demeanor, she suddenly thought that maybe he could…hehe, with whom, Wang Xiaohong?
Xiao Qian was lost in thought when she suddenly heard Dong Yi say, “I don’t know if there will be a chance to get on Uncle’s plane in the future.”
For this question, Yu Mingyi remained silent, as if pondering.
“Ahem! Pfft!” Xiao Qian choked on her own saliva.
There was nothing wrong with Dong Yi’s words, but when they were said while female boss Xiao Qian was being mischievous, they somehow sounded…
“Boss Qian, are you okay?” Dong Yi asked, and Xiao Qian shook her head. She wouldn’t say how Dong Yi’s question had seamlessly connected with her previous one, which was quite terrifying.
Dong Yi thought that Uncle would take them directly to the treatment place, but she didn’t expect that Yu Mingyi would bring them to the guesthouse canteen instead.
“Let’s eat first, and then we’ll talk about it later.” Yu Mingyi arranged for them to sit down and order food.
Dong Yi whispered uneasily to Xiao Qian, “Does this cost money?”
“It’s free hospitality, eat as much as you want.”
For someone of Yu Mingyi’s level, there were a certain number of days of free hospitality every year, so there’s no need to spend money.
“Won’t it cause trouble for him?” Dong Yi didn’t know the rules here, but she knew she absolutely shouldn’t cause any trouble for Yu Mingyi.
“It won’t be a problem; Second Brother Yu is very steady, so feel free to eat.”
Today was Xiao Qian’s first time talking with Yu Mingyi for so long, and she had already judged from his actions that Yu Mingyi was not a rash person at all. He was very smart and a little silent, but he was not stupid.
She had tested him with the hotel, but instead of rebuffing her, he brought her and Dong Yi here, expressing unconditional trust in his younger brother’s girlfriend and voluntarily avoiding suspicion. Everything he did was well thought out and very steady, much more so than his impulsive younger brother who took people fishing in the wilderness. It was hard to understand why someone like Yu Mingyi would marry Wang Xiaohong; they simply weren’t compatible.
As Xiao Qian was thinking, Yu Mingyi returned with a tray full of dishes, and there were a few more that needed to be prepared before they were served.
“Uncle, there’s no need to waste so much food; we won’t be able to finish it.”
“It’s okay. I wanted to chat with you last time, but now we have the opportunity. Eat more.” Yu Mingyi’s interaction with Dong Yi was entirely that of an elder speaking to a younger generation.
Xiao Qian felt awkward.
Why did she feel that the relationship between them was a bit… messy?
“Da Yi, he’s not much older than you. You don’t have to call him uncle, you know? If you call him that, what should I call him?”
Since he was Ming Lang’s elder brother, and Dong Yi was her roommate, it would be awkward for Dong Yi to call him uncle.
“I… can’t change that.” Dong Yi had been calling him that since the beginning, and she couldn’t bring herself to call him Second Brother like Xiao Qian did; it felt like disrespecting her idol.
“It’s okay, a name is just a code. Call him whatever you like. How are you adapting to the school? Can you keep up with the homework?” Second Brother asked.
Dong Yi immediately put down her chopsticks and answered seriously.
“The school is great. They have reduced tuition fees for students from special regions like us and have been taking very good care of us. The dormitory we were assigned to is also excellent. I share a dormitory with Boss Qian, and I can keep up with my homework. Boss Qian often helps me with tutoring.”
“Can the two of you stop being so formal? Can’t you just relax a little?” Xiao Qian couldn’t stand it any longer. Second Brother Yu was a very serious person, and with Dong Yi being so serious as well, the two of them together instantly turned the canteen into something like a reporting meeting.
Second Brother Yu nodded. He was too serious, mainly because he didn’t know how to interact with children. He handed Dong Yi a piece of ribs.
“Eat more.”
Dong Yi nodded happily, not wanting to eat the food that Uncle had given her.
This scene was witnessed by Wang Xiaobo.
Wang Xiaobo didn’t know yet that his sister had filed for divorce. After Wang Xiaohong’s divorce, Big Brother Yu had forcibly sent her to another city for treatment. She told her family that she was on a business trip. In the meantime, Second Brother’s house was still being occupied by the Wang family members.
So Wang Xiaobo didn’t know that his sister had been caught cheating and was kicked out of the house.
He had a friend visiting, who was reluctant to spend money and wanted to freeload off the company guesthouse. Wang Xiaobo agreed, intending to ask for the room in his brother-in-law’s name. With all the unused rooms, it should have been just a matter of asking, right?
However, the reception desk staff told him that Yu Mingyi had instructed them to kick Wang Xiaobo out if he tried to take advantage of his name. Unsatisfied, Wang Xiaobo continued arguing with them, until they suggested he take it up with the leader directly, mentioning that Yu Mingyi was in the guesthouse canteen at the time.
Wang Xiaobo went over and saw Yu Mingyi handing food to Dong Yi. What the hell? He hadn’t even given his wife any food in all the years they’d been married. Was this an extramarital affair?
Moreover, one affair involved two beautiful women.. This was a big deal!
