Chapter 65 - How to Treat Your Guests (1/2)

“Lebor’s being turned upside down and you’re roasting rabbits for fun?”

“Oh my god, a lop-eared giant space rabbit!!! So cute! Awww, it’s cute even if its fur is burnt!”

“Yate doesn’t seem like the kind of guy who would like rabbits at all. I seem to recall another rather famous person. The whole world knows he loves giant space rabbits…”

“I know! The Supreme Commander is trying to say that he wants to roast the giant space rabbit for dinner. It’s provocation for Zhong Yan! Let me explain. He wants to know when the rabbit sheds, meaning he wants to take off its fur, and the burnt fur signifies he wants to roast it and eat it. This suggests that he is on bad terms with Zhong Yan. Didn’t someone post about it a long time ago? They had most likely gotten married because they got attacked together by chance and didn’t get to pay the fines. Seems like their marriage won’t last for long.”

“Stop fantasizing, the two of them had already admitted they got married because they didn’t have money.”

“People really believe they don’t have money? I’m done. One’s a representative councilor, the other’s the big boss of a star system. They can’t afford a divorce? Who are you trying to kid? To begin with, Zhong Yan has the Yate family supporting him. I knew from the very beginning this couldn’t have been a coincidence. After all, everyone in the Federation knows that ‘Butterfly’ doesn’t play by the rules anymore.”

“Don’t just try to represent the entire Federation. How could we have our stable lives without ‘Butterfly’? Yate will face retribution if he encourages young people to rebel!”

“Why is that damn moth’s fans on the Commander’s homepage? Why don’t you let me explain to you what the case was with the two misjudgments? I’m just worried you’ll also be ‘misjudged’ if you accidentally did something the Capital doesn’t like next time.”

“This is his revenge. Do you still remember the Supreme Institution’s celebration two months ago? Zhong Yan mouthed something to Yate and a great god managed to decipher the word as ‘top’. He’s trying to pick a fight with Yate. What he means is that he wants to be on top after they marry, and now that they’re married, Yate is posting this picture as revenge to say he wants to eat roasted giant space rabbit.”

“Good one! The Commander is mighty!”

“Are you all crazy? You think he’s a celebrity just cause he’s a little good-looking? Eating giant space rabbits is illegal. Don’t you know about the giant space rabbit anti-poaching laws? Are you all ignorant of the law?”

“I don’t think the Commander is just ‘a little’ good-looking…”

“That’s a giant space rabbit? Looks pretty small though? Nobody can see that if you threw it up in space!”

“Giant space rabbits don’t live to be looked at by you, thank you. This variety is smaller than the usual ones.”

“They didn’t say anything about that, okay? How could there be such extreme giant space rabbit fans everywhere? Aren’t they just rabbits that have been mutated by radiation? You lot are just like a cult.”

“Protecting giant space rabbits has great scientific significance in both the fields of biology and physics. If you’re free, read up more on science topics. Spend less time talking smack at people in the virtual community.”

“Replying to the comment above, Yate forcefully demolished the monitoring system in the Lebor System. He just ignored the constitution and you think he cares about your stupid poaching laws?”

“The Federation is in turmoil, chaos is coming. Stop talking about the law and whatnot and make sure you have food stored up instead.”

“??? Can’t he just ask about when rabbits shed? What are they talking about in the comments, I don’t understand?”

……

……

……

By the time Zhong Yan ended his meeting with Intron, changed his clothes, and opened his terminal to realize that something was wrong, things had already gone into an uncontrollable direction.

Since his rise in reputation after achieving top scores in middle school, Zhong Yan who had to watch every word he spoke in public looked at the two pictures he took and felt like his feet were swaying.

The entire comment section was a giant mess. There were some who were trying to analyze the deeper meanings of Adrian’s words, those who were criticizing Adrian for blatantly violating the hunting prohibition laws, people arguing about the pros and cons of AI, and also those who were fangirling over the rabbit. Zhong Yan felt like he should tell his men to get things under control, but he actually could not figure out where to start for a moment.

There was even an advertisement in the hot comments section. You could tell with one look that they had gotten there by spending money on certain tools. But advertisements themselves weren’t scary, it was the content that was.

“Agriste Jewelry Design, personal brand of the top jewelry designer graduate of the Federation’s Supreme Institution’s Academy of Fine Arts. The choice of the most famous couple in the Federation, Adrian Yate and Zhong Yan! The latest models are on the shelves, personalized customization, an ace experience! Please click here for more details…”

No, it was Adrian’s choice, not his!

But just as Zhong Yan was holding his forehead and reading this advert with difficulty, praying that everyone could just treat his fellow alumnus as a swindler here to ride the waves, an even more terrifying thing happened. Adrian was clearly looking at the same comment as he was, and he gave that comment a like.

Zhong Yan “…” He won’t be able to get out of this one…

Adrian was driving when he suddenly received a call. He was going to hang it up, but he never would have expected that it was Zhong Yan calling him when he looked at the screen.

When he was still in school, the campus was too far away from his dorm so he rented a scooter from the school to get around every day. Zhong Yan would never call him when he was on the road, so what happened today? Did something happen at home?
