Chapter 1105: Fool The Kids
One thing was for sure, Hyson knew how to gather love from old and young. Age definitely didn't matter to him since he could make anyone his fan. And he was certainly very proud about that too.
Since Rowan was the oldest of the little ones around Hyson, he was like a big brother and he seemed pretty used to it too. He took Sammy and Xena with him like a good big brother who was not only protecting the young ones but also making sure they were having enough fun. Hyson actually found it amusing since the age difference between these kids wasn't all that big.
Hyson was all too happy to see that the friendship between the young ones was built so soon. No matter how much he felt that Rowan was a sensible kid, he was still a kid and he definitely deserved to have his own social circle with kids of his age group.
"Major, you should have tried to build a friendship with Rowan. You know, he is your future step-mom's favorite grandnephew."
"Stop it, Fai," said Xiang Wai.
"Why? You don't want to be close to your stepmom?"
"I'm not even close to my own biological mother," reminded Xiang Wai.
Hyson narrowed his eyes at her, "So, you don't like the fact that your father might marry another woman?"
"What nonsense?!" Xiang Wai snorted. "There is no such thing. I don't think I have a right to interfere in my dad's life," said Xiang Wai. "Those kids who feel that they are entitled to control their parents' life are sick. They don't want their parents to interfere in their lives but they want to control their parents' lives. What kind of logic is that?"
"Major, you're not that hopeless, huh."
Xiang Wai rolled her eyes at him, "I was never hopeless. You just have a prejudice against me."
"Now, that's not true," said Hyson. "You can't attack me like that." He put his arm around her shoulder like a good old buddy and added, "In fact, I think you and I can have a common ground in the future. Because I totally agree with your point of view. We should give our parents the freedom that we so want in our own lives." Then he looked at Zhai Yanjun as he asked, "What do you think, brother?"
Zhai Yanjun nodded in agreement, "I agree." He was silent for a while before speaking again, "I saw you talking to Dad earlier. Everything good?"

"What are you worried about, brother? Are you worried about me or your dad?"
"About my dad," answered Zhai Yanjun honestly. He didn't think he had anything to worry about regarding Hyson. It's the people around Hyson who deserves his concern and in this case, that person was his own father so he couldn't help asking.
"Exactly what do you take me for?" asked Hyson. "Do I look like a savage? Do I bite people? Do you think I peeled off flesh from your father's body? It was just a short conversation. How can you be so worried?" 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝑜𝑚
"Anybody would be worried," said Zhai Yanjun. "Your reputation precedes you, my dear little brother."
"You're making me sound worse and worse. Be careful. What if you gave people the wrong idea about me? How can I pretend to be an angel if you kept making me sound like a devil?"
"Everyone already knows what kind of an angel you are. You can only fool kids with your skills," commented Xiang Wai. She really couldn't help going against him as if her day won't be complete without bickering with him.
"Thanks for the compliment, Major Wai!" replied Hyson with a sweet smile as if her words didn't affect him at all. After that, he said, "You should be glad that today, I'm in a very good mood. So, I'm very easy to talk to today. My damage rate today is lowered by at least 50 percent. That's why, Captain, your dad survived."
Zhai Yanjun actually heaved a sigh of relief. Even though he loved this little brother, he also knew what kind of a poisonous tongue this little brother of his had. He was actually worried that his father won't be able to take it and might get hurt by Hyson's words. And considering Zhai Kuijun's heart disease, his nerves had been taut.
But no matter how restless he was, he didn't try to interfere between Zhai Kuijun and Hyson. On one side was his own father and on the other side was his brother. He didn't want to push or pull anyone of them. Both were very important to him. So, he decided to stand on sidelines to see where this would go. And from the look of it, it seemed it didn't go all that bad.
"So, you're very happy today?" asked Xiang Wai. "Who should we thank for this change?"
"Of course, it's because it's my best friend's engagement today. This is a very important day for me. Why would I not be happy? I'm more than just happy so I'm very easy to talk to today."
"Then should I say dad got lucky?" Zhai Yanjun smiled at the thought.
"You can say that."
"So, Fai, what about you? Did you allow Uncle Kui to be with your mum?" asked Xiang Wai curiously.
"Who am I to stop him?" retorted Hyson.
"You're taking yourself too lightly," said Zhai Yanjun. "I told you, dad won't do anything if you don't agree. He had been trying to keep his distance from Ayi during this time all because he was waiting for you. If you didn't say anything, I don't think he'd even confront Ayi for why she didn't tell him about you."
Hyson shook his head at him, "Brother, you have a big misunderstanding about your father. Do you think he is that obedient? I don't think so. He is very stubborn."
Zhai Yanjun raised his brow at Hyson wondering why he said that. It didn't seem right to him.
