Chapter 777 Won't Make The Cut
"You can never question my percipience," said Hyson. historical
"How do you even come up with all of this?" questioned Zhai Yanjun as he fell on his back. He was genuinely curious about it right now. He was using one arm as his pillow while he held the phone in his other hand. He genuinely couldn't understand how Hyson's perception skills were so good? Just one look on the video call and he could already tell what he was going through.
"I'm full of wisdom because I never removed my wisdom tooth," replied Hyson.
Zhai Yanjun burst out laughing when he heard that. "Does that even make sense to you, Fai?"
"It does," responded Hyson seriously. "Do you know why wisdom teeth are called, wisdom teeth?"
"Why don't you enlighten me?"
Hyson cleared his throat as if he was ready to give a presentation, "Human brain continues to grow and develop right on through adolescence. Researchers even believe that our brain doesn't reach full maturity until the age of 25. And do you know when the wisdom teeth appear? It's from the age of 17 to 25. The eruption of the wisdom tooth is a sign that you've left the carefree days of childhood and have entered the troubled times of adulthood. In other words, you're 'wiser' now." He took a pause and added, "So, wisdom teeth are indeed linked with wisdom. Since I still have my wisdom tooth, it means, I'm still the wiser one!"
"I got my wisdom tooth when I was 20 but I don't have it anymore," told Zhai Yanjun.
"Tsk, tsk," Hyson tutted at him and added, "Even your wisdom tooth didn't like you and ran away." He looked at his mother and questioned, "What do you like about him?"
Yue Yue was smiling to herself seeing these two talking about such a random topic which actually was really unimportant as well. But seeing how one was happily talking and the other was happily listening, she didn't disturb them at all. She only felt gratified looking at them. Especially her own son.
How could she not love this dramatic son of hers?
Even if he was full of ludicrous ideas, he was still the most sensible one. Who said he didn't like Zhai Yanjun? Even if he wasn't willing to give Zhai Yanjun a good face and looked for trouble all the time, at this time when he saw that his brother looked upset, he was ready to throw his hands and beat someone up for him. And even now, he was talking crazy just to put Zhai Yanjun in a good mood.
She never thought she was a blessed person but heaven blessed her with a son like Hyson. And with him, she started to feel how fortunate she was in life.
Hearing his question, she responded, 'I like about him, what you like about him.'
Hyson pouted, "Who said I like him? He doesn't even like himself. Why should I bother liking him?"
Yue Yue rubbed her son's head, 'Stop lying to yourself. It doesn't suit you.'
Hyson tsked to himself.
"Fai!"
"What?" Hyson looked back at the screen to see Zhai Yanjun's smile.
"You always keep a smile on your face," said Zhai Yanjun. "It can brighten up anyone's day."
"Didn't you just say you're the older one here?" responded Hyson making Zhai Yanjun frown in confusion but his confusion was cleared once Hyson continued, "Then as the older brother, it's your responsibility to protect this smile of mine."
Zhai Yanjun's smile deepened and the gloominess between his brows faded away instantly. His eyes also cleared up as he nodded and promise, "I promise. I'll do anything in my power to protect your smile."
"Although I don't need your protection, I don't mind it either," Hyson's inner tsundere was showing up again as he spoke amusing his mother and Zhai Yanjun. "But worry not, I'm like the sun! Even if I hide behind clouds, always remember that my warmth and light are still there."
"You should stop before you start ascending to heaven by praising yourself so much," stated Zhai Yanjun.
"If you continued to stop me like this, I'm definitely not gonna like you," said Hyson.
"But you already do," retorted Zhai Yanjun. "Right, Ayi?"
Yue Yue also nodded in agreement while Hyson could only sigh to himself. He couldn't expect his mother to take his side, eh? But forget it. He'll let it go for today. After all, he could see that this silly Captain needed his mother right now. Who knew what was running through his mind to make him look so broody? But whatever it was, as long as he was happy just seeing his Aunt Yue, Hyson will reluctantly lend his mother to him.
See? How generous he was?
He could be called the living buddha at this moment!
Well, Hyson's narcissism was really something else. Something no one could compete with at all.
"I won't argue with you about that," said Hyson. "If it makes you happy, you can think whatever."
"Oh, you're so concerned about my happiness, Fai? I'm so flattered right now," Zhai Yanjun looked really touched as he placed a hand on his chest.
Hyson rolled his eyes at him and looked at his mother, "He is also dramatic. I'm definitely not alone."
Yue Yue really wanted to tell her son that no one could compete with him when it came to being dramatic. Even Mu Chenyan might have to take a step back before Hyson.
"It's because I'm learning from you," said Zhai Yanjun.
"Hey! Captain, as a good soldier, don't speak whatever you want. You can't blame an innocent cutie like this. You're the one who is learning bad things, how is it my fault? It's not like kidnapped you to impart my skills to you." He humped, "Besides, my standards for a desciple are high. You won't make the cut."
