At that time, Weibo was filled with news of Jiang Zemin's daughters being arrested for suspected tax evasion, leading to the closure of the Jiang Zemin Group and a sharp decline in its stock price. Public sentiment was one of resentment.
"What? Weibo is down and I can't log in. Has something happened?"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm about to burst from the crowd."
Since the VLK team had finished the competition and wanted to relax, their captain, Xiao Qi, decided to take a day off.
Luo Xuan was scrolling through Sina Weibo on his phone when he suddenly couldn't log in, which he found strange, and muttered to himself.
"Hey, can you guys access Weibo? Why can't I log in? What's wrong?"
Lin Xiao glanced at the contents of Luo Xuan's phone, and a few words caught his eye.
The Jiang Group was investigated, and the Jiang family's heiress was arrested. He laughed; she had brought this upon herself, and this was her own choice.
"That's because she has to fulfill the sins she committed."
Luo Xuan shook his head in disbelief. Ever since he saw that woman that day, he really couldn't believe that a girl could do such a thing; it was too crazy.
"I really can't believe this was done by a girl. Luckily, the team leader didn't let her into the dorm, or we would have been in big trouble too!"
"Yeah, yeah, I used to be a fan of hers, I was so blind."
The boy named Lin Yang rarely agreed with one of Lin Xiao's ideas, and nodded in agreement.
After Lin Xiao's actions, he truly felt that he had wronged the person.
Perhaps the captain made the right choice. This young man, Lin Xiao, wasn't so bad after all, or perhaps it was his spirit that attracted their attention.
"Pfft, it's rare for you to agree with Lin Xiao, Lin Yang. That's quite unusual. You used to dislike Lin Xiao a lot, haha."
Luo Xuan was always looking for trouble, and he wanted to mess with this guy who was even weirder than Bai Jin.
I always talk to him like I know everything, so it's not bad to tease him a little now.
Lin Yang coughed awkwardly. He hadn't expected Luo Xuan to suddenly make a joke about him, and he was genuinely flattered.
But when he thought about how that person liked that other person, he might...
The boy with short, dark green hair glanced at the face of the boy next to him, his displeasure still showing.
The boy patted Lin Yang on the shoulder, gesturing for him to go to his room so he could talk to him.
"Come with me, I have something to tell you."
Lin Yang looked puzzled. Why couldn't they talk about this here? Why did they have to go outside?
"About you."
"Okay, Captain, wait for me a moment."
Lin Xiao didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "You like Luo Xuan? When did you suddenly start liking him?"
Lin Xiao crossed his arms as he spoke, observing the expression on the boy's face. The room fell silent for a few seconds, which was the best proof of that.
He couldn't help but marvel at how cool this world was; he had thought he was the only one who liked boys, but it turned out there were others too.
Lin Yang pursed his lips with a complicated expression, unsure how to answer, and dared not look into Lin Xiao's questioning eyes.
Yes, his secret was discovered. He originally thought he had kept it well hidden, but in his opinion, it was nothing more than that; he was only deceiving himself.
"So, are you planning to file a report? There are two gay men in a team. One might not be a problem, but two of them... you guys."
Lin Xiao suddenly realized that the boy who had always mocked him was so scared at this moment, which was not like his usual self.
Or is it that love can make a person strong and reckless?
He felt that perhaps his way of asking the question was making it difficult for Lin Yang, so he should try to rephrase it in a way that Lin Yang could understand.
The boy smiled, his cat-like eyes looking at Lin Yang.
"I think you may have misunderstood. Homosexuality itself is not a crime; the problem is that they have misunderstood this feeling."
"Everyone thinks that falling in love with a man is a sin, but that's not true."
They simply fell in love with someone of the same sex; it had nothing to do with homosexuality. As long as it was that person, that was enough.
Although Lin Xiao really didn't want to admit it, he had been turned gay again.
This really annoyed him. He was clearly the dominant one too, so why was he always the one being dominated? Humph!
Lin Yang was puzzled by Lin Xiao's expressions. How come he had never noticed them before? Moreover, Lin Xiao had an extremely keen eye for detail.
"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?"
"Oh, right, perhaps I should rephrase my question. Jiang Yuanyuan said your assets are comparable to hers, and your status has been restored to what it was before."
"So, will you continue to stay by the captain's side? Usually, the one being suppressed has the right to choose, right...?"
Lin Xiao blushed with embarrassment. Who said rigid boys are like that? He shut Lin Yang's wildly imaginative mind. "If your imagination runs out, I'll beat him up next time I see him!"
"Lin Yang, what nonsense are you talking about? How could I leave you because of this? Even if the competition is over, we still have international competitions. Don't you want to participate?"
"But that's not what you need to worry about right now. What you need to worry about is how to face Luo Xuan. You don't know that Bai Jin also likes Luo Xuan, do you?"
The quiet young man with slightly dark skin lowered his eyes, his mind filled with memories of every time Luo Xuan saw Bai Jin.
The hint of admiration in his eyes, and the way the two got along so harmoniously, made him think that Luo Xuan liked him.
"I... I don't know. He probably likes Bai Jin, because I treated him so badly before, how could he like me?"
Luo Xuan, who was behind the door, heard that humble voice. The familiar voice actually belonged to Lin Yang, which surprised him.
The boy in the blue shirt covered his mouth, hardly believing that this was the boy who said it.
He's already given him so many hints, but he didn't seem to understand. So why is he saying he likes him now? Does he think he's easy to fool?
Lin Xiao smiled, walked past Lin Yang towards the door, and opened it. She raised an eyebrow at the man who had tripped and fallen after the door was opened.
"What's wrong, bro? Are you eavesdropping here? Something seems a bit suspicious, huh?"
Caught red-handed, Luo Xuan seemed a little guilty, but he managed to compose himself. "Who, who's guilty? I, I was just asking why you suddenly opened the door. You almost scared me to death! It's really annoying!"
Luo Xuan's tone was weak, clearly indicating that his words wouldn't fool Lin Xiao and weren't working on her. But he didn't care anymore; since she already knew, why hide it? Getting down to business was the priority!
"Make way."
"Um, Lin Yang, I just heard someone say that you like me, right?"
"Then why didn't you say anything when we were on the team? I clearly hinted at it to you, but you... but you..."
