Yu Mingyi's home is in Q City. Originally, he wanted his wife and their under-two-year-old son Panpan to come live with him in the housing provided by his work unit, but his wife Wang Xiaohong disagreed.
Yu Mingyi had the means to let his wife and son live with him, but Wang Xiaohong wasn't interested in the housing provided by the company. In Q City, Yu Mingyi, like Minglang, bought a two-story house from his elder brother. Wang Xiaohong brought her mother over to live with them, and she worked at Mr. Yu's company with excellent benefits, so she didn't want to move as there wouldn't be a good job for her.
So every time Yu Mingyi had time off, he would drive over two hours to go home to see his wife and son.
For many people, home should be a warm haven.
But every time the car drove into the borders of Q City, Yu Mingyi felt a heaviness in his heart, feeling worse each time he returned.
