Chapter 1061: Who Had It Worse?"On a serious note, why are you here?" asked Hyson. "For real?"        

    

"Just because," replied Zhai Yanjun carelessly.    

Hyson felt a headache coming on, "Don't tell me you actually just came to see me? It can't be, right?"    

Zhai Yanjun looked at him and grinned, "I did."    

"You have nothing else to do here? You only came to see me?"    

Zhai Yanjun nodded his head.    

Hyson's lips twitched when he was faced with this response. He felt like banging his head against the window but then again, why would he hurt himself? It was better to hurt this fool instead!    

"Captain, how about I accompany you to the hospital?" asked Hyson.    

"What for?"      

"To get your brain checked up," replied Hyson. "I seriously think something is wrong with your brain."    

"If you're accompanying me, I'm willing to go," said Zhai Yanjun. "Even to the mental hospital!"    

"Why would I go to the mental hospital?" retorted Hyson as he leaned back his head and closed his eyes.    

Seeing him like this, Zhai Yanjun felt distressed. Especially when he noticed how Hyson's eyes were a little puffy. He must have not been sleeping well these days.    

"You... Are you okay?" asked Zhai Yanjun. "Is it very tiring? Why don't you stop being so hard on yourself? I am not interested in business, so dad's business is all yours. You can have it. I don't want to. You really don't have to work so hard."    

Hyson suddenly opened his eyes and tilted his head to look at Zhai Yanjun who was speaking nonsense now. When did Hyson even agree to be his brother and now, he was even being asked to become a second-generation tyrant?    

"No?" asked Zhai Yanjun carefully when he saw how Hyson looked at him. He knew a little about Hyson's self-reliant personality. "Then how about I ask dad to invest in movies for you? That way, no director can order you around and you can work at your own pace."    

"Are you really oblivious or you are pretending?"    



"Huh?"    

Hyson rolled his eyes, "My best friend's name is Raelle. My godmother is Mu Chenyan. My Opa is Xiang Tianyu. How poor do you even think I can be? Do you really think I need your dad's business or money? I have no such intention?" He took a pause and added, "I don't often tell this to people but I'll let you know. Ellie has taught me how to work with stocks. With my intelligence, it wasn't all that difficult to master this trade. So, once I got my first pot of gold from stocks, I invested it all in my best friend. Do you know why?"    

Zhai Yanjun didn't respond and just listened attentively because he knew it was something personal and something Hyson didn't usually talk about or share with just anyone. He could just take it as he was special to his brother so he was being told all this.      

"Because investing in Ellie means, I never have to worry about my money sinking. In fact, I had to do nothing and I'd still be getting pots of gold every year. So, I don't work harder, I work smarter! In a way, I made Raelle Xiang work for me and make me rich. Hahaha! Just thinking about it makes me feel accomplished!"    

Seeing his cheeky smile, Zhai Yanjun chuckled. Then he rubbed Hyson's head again, "Oh, my brother is indeed one of a kind. Sigh. I can't lure you into my family even with my dad's inheritance. It's even more useless than I thought it was."    

Hyson was left seeing Zhai Yanjun's disdain for his father's inheritance.      

Other half-brothers were fighting over inheritance and didn't even hesitate before killing each other and here were these two. Both didn't want the inheritance and found it useless.    

"I'm not that easy to lure," said Hyson proudly. Was he someone who worshipped money? He had enough money by now. He didn't lack it even if he didn't act like it, he was indeed very rich by now. And now, even his mother started sending him money.      

No, Yue Yue never stopped giving him pocket money all these years. Even when he started earning more than she did, he'd still take a portion of her money aside for her son's expenses. And now that she started her own brand, Hyson really felt like his mother was throwing money at him. Whatever she earned, she was just throwing his way.        

    

"Are you free?" Zhai Yanjun's question broke the train of Hyson's thoughts and he looked at him.      

"Why?"    

"I thought you can show me around. I have never been here," answered Zhai Yanjun.    

"Am I a tour guide? I've only been working since I got here," replied Hyson. "I don't even know what places there are here."    

"It's even better," was Zhai Yanjun's response. "How about we find out together?" he suggested. "Let's take a tour of the city?"    

"I don't want to," grumbled Hyson. "I still haven't thought about what gift to give to my best friend on her engagement. I can't waste my time with you."    

"Aiyo, wouldn't it be more productive to look around?" asked Zhai Yanjun. "That way, you might get more ideas about what gift you can give her. After all, it's a real challenge to find something for Raelle. She doesn't lack anything."    

"Right? She even has the world's best friend, what could she possibly lack at this point?"    

Zhai Yanjun pursed his lips and suppressed his laughter. Oho! This brother was really full of himself.      

Hyson thought about it for a minute and actually agreed with Zhai Yanjun's suggestion. So, he said, "Wait for a minute." Then he texted his assistant to find out the time of his scenes. Knowing that he had the next scene only in the evening, he perked up, "Okay. Let's go. I have a couple of hours to look around."    

"Great!" Zhai Yanjun happily agreed and started the car.      

Zhai Yanjun was actually fully prepared. He took Hyson to the ancient town in the city and wandered around. Then he took him shopping and they bought little trinkets that they found unique. Then Zhai Yanjun even found a noodle shop that had a century old history to feed his brother a good meal.    

Observing Hyson carefully, Zhai Yanjun finally asked, "Fai, do you really mind dad being with Ayi?"    

Hyson paused and didn't reply.    

"Do you not like dad?" asked Zhai Yanjun further.    

"Me liking him or not won't change anything," said Hyson.    

"But it does," said Zhai Yanjun. "Dad is very nervous to even see you since he found out that you're his son. He is excited and distressed for days. I was really praying that he doesn't get a stroke or something. This news really came out of nowhere for him. If you really don't like him, I assure you that dad won't even get close to Ayi."    

"But you want him to," Hyson pointed out.    

Zhai Yanjun pressed his lips together, "That's because I have seen my dad suffering. I'm gonna be honest with you. For the longest time, I didn't have a good relationship with my dad. Only because he didn't want to divorce my mother. And I really wanted them to get a divorce. That's how tired I was of their relationship. I never understood but for my sake, he kept dragging that marriage." He looked up at Hyson, "And more than him, I want it to work for myself. I have always dreamed of having a mother who genuinely loves me. And no one has offered that warmth of home to me as Ayi does."    

Hyson looked back at him. In fact, he knew all of this very well. His observation skills weren't just hyped up. He was indeed very perceptive and could see things clearly. He understood Zhai Yanjun even better.      

"As I said before, me liking it or not, really doesn't matter," said Hyson. "It really doesn't. Because I'm just me. I, Yue Fai, have never felt the need for a father. Maybe I look pitiful to some people that I never had a father. But do you think I'm pitiful? Tell me honestly, do you?"    

Zhai Yanjun shook his head.    

Hyson smiled, "Indeed, because I am not pitiful. Maybe, at one point in my life, I was. But that's long gone. I was in middle school and it was parents day. Do you know who entered the race of fathers with me that day? It was Yanyan. In all those men, she stood alone and tall. She didn't care if she looked odd. So, when I say I don't lack anything, I mean it. But you... You're different. You really do lacked a lot even if it seemed you had everything. So, I have been wondering which one of us really had it worse? You or me?"    

Hyson couldn't really answer that because in his mind, he definitely didn't had it worse than Zhai Yanjun.    

"I am gonna tell you only one thing. In my life, my mum's happiness is above all for me. It always had been and it will be. So, no matter what choices she makes in her life, I'd never be the one to go against them. Never!"        

    

Zhai Yanjun understood it at that moment. It meant. No matter what happened, to Hyson only Yue Yue's happiness mattered. Who or what she chose was all up to her. He won't come between her choices. Not at all.
