Chapter 1066 SOME OF BAI ZE'S WORRIES
1066 SOME OF BAI ZE'S WORRIES
BAI ZE was already slightly stressed because of the situation with his cousins and friends. Yes, despite their constant bickering, he still, albeit reluctantly, considered Su Yuqi as a friend.
When he was told about what happened, he wanted to follow his father to the police station to personally check the condition of the four. But his father told him to stay home and accompany his mother. Seeing that his mother was also a bit shaken by the news, how could he argue with his father's decision? So, he stayed put at home.
Thankfully, the situation was quickly resolved. Although his father had to take Luo Jin to the hospital for a quick check-up just to be sure that he didn't have any serious injuries. On the other hand, Luo Yan was now on the way back here with Shen Ji Yun.
But before they could even receive an update on Luo Jin's check-up result, this crazy rumor started to appear on Weibo.
Something that only started with a blurred photo, asking if the ones in it were YUN and Noctis, escalated fast. From turning the photo to high-definition to someone finding out it was taken outside a police station, then someone posting a sneak shot of Ji Yun about to punch someone, and everyone just assumed he's a war freak who would instigate a fight whenever he went.
Their conclusion? Team Yunyue should be disqualified.
Seriously, the mental gymnastics these people did to arrive at that was almost amazing in itself.
Since Bai Ze was the only one who had a 'White Marsh' Weibo account, he was immediately notified when this thing started to blow up. But because of that, he was definitely the only one in his team who's aware of what's happening right now.
If he just let this be and did not do anything, things would escalate even further for sure. Maybe if this was left alone until tomorrow, the moment he woke up, he would see a rumor about how team Yunyue belonged to a criminal syndicate.
Bai Ze took a deep breath and calmed himself, his brain working to the maximum to think of a way to fix this.
On the bright side, at least the photo taken of Luo Yan and Shen Ji Yun was that and not the two hugging or something. If that was the case, then the rumor floating on Weibo right now would be very different. The gossip would be about their relationship instead. And not the kind that would warrant congratulations from everyone.
Rather than being considered as something to be happy about, many would just label it as a 'controversy'. This society was still not very welcoming to same-sex couple. No matter how much the closest people to them accept their relationship, not everyone would not have the same reaction.
Let's not mention the Shen family. Aside from Uncle Yi Mu, there's no definitely no one on that side who would accept Ji Yun being gay. No, maybe his grandmother would. But that's it.

Shen Ji Yun was already being ostracized by the Shen family. If it got out that he's gay, he might just be removed from the family register. Not that it would make any difference to Ji Yun. After all, even now, those people barely considered Ji Yun as family.But that didn't mean things wouldn't be troublesome for him.
With how the Shen family put too much value on their reputation, if a news broke out about one of the youngest generation of the family being gay, it might not just end with the removal in the family registry.
And that's only the side of the Shen family. He couldn't even begin to imagine what Uncle Wei Tian's reaction would be like. Not to mention his parents, who had known Ji Yun for a long time.
This did not mean that they would be angry with Luo Yan. No, the brunt of their anger would definitely fall on Ji Yun. Especially considering that his cousin was still in high school now. And there was also the fact that he had only woken up from that coma just a year ago. In their eyes, it would definitely seem like Ji Yun had 'preyed' on Luo Yan.
As someone who had witnessed the interaction between the two from the start, there's hardly any evidence that Ji Yun 'preyed' on Luo Yan. If that was the case, he would be the first one to oppose their relationship.
But from his perspective, his cousin seemed more like the one leading Ji Yun on. Even now, in his opinion, the one holding the rein in their relationship was still Luo Yan. Considering the temperament of the two and the dynamics of their relationship, Luo Yan would probably still be the one at the top.
Of course, not literally. Just metaphorically. He couldn't disparage his friend that much.
Anyway, in short, Luo Yan was in no way at a disadvantage in this relationship. But Uncle Wei Tian would definitely not think of it that way. So, for the happiness of the two, it would be better for their relationship to be known once Luo Yan at least passed the age of 20. That would definitely be much more acceptable to Uncle Wei Tian.
But since no one really knew what would happen in the future, they might still be discovered much sooner. However, at least it shouldn't be now.
Bai Ze took a deep breath. Despite him thinking of those things, his brain still managed to come up with a plan to fix this situation. Then he let out a deep sigh. Once this was over, he would surely have a big headache from overworking his brain too much.
He then dialed Uncle Yi Mu's number. It didn't take long for the other line to connect.
"Hello, Uncle Yi Mu. Have you seen what's happening in Weibo right now?"

As that topic in Weibo continued to escalate more and more, the original post that started it all was suddenly deleted. And not long after that, the official Weibo account of a certain police station in Yangqing District posted a very interesting statement.
