The Gossip Revealed That My Whole Family Are Big Shots

Zhan Yan had always thought of himself as an ordinary person from an ordinary family, adopted by an ordinary family, and bound to an ordinary gossip system. Until one day, when his gentle and reliable father came home smelling strongly of perfume. Zhan Yan suspiciously opened the gossip system: 【The Demon King of the Wan Yao (Ten Thousand Demon) Alliance, Zhan Yunkai, accidentally got pollen from the corpse flower devil’s yam while chasing a traitor. To prevent his wife and child from finding out, he took seven baths and used up an entire bottle of perfume before coming home.】 Zhan Yan: Eyes shaking in disbelief! Then one day, his elegant and beautiful mother didn’t come home by midnight and didn’t answer her phone. Zhan Yan, worried, opened the gossip system: 【Top combatant of the Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau, Ji Yueming, got trapped in a maze after forgetting the password when leaving the bureau’s secret area. To get home quickly, she is angrily tearing down the maze.】 Zhan Yan: ??? Wait a minute! Isn’t the Abnormal Affairs Management Bureau an enemy organization of the Wan Yao Alliance?! Zhan Yan frantically searched the gossip system and finally found where the two met: 【Zhan Yunkai fell in love with Ji Yueming at first sight during the Lantern Festival and decided to hide his identity to date and marry her.】 【Ji Yueming fell in love with Zhan Yunkai at first sight during the Lantern Festival and decided to hide her identity to date and marry him.】 Zhan Yan: Wow! You both are wearing fake identities, huh?! The harmonious and happy family is facing a crisis of breaking apart, and Zhan Yan is very worried. He starts frantically searching the gossip system to see if there’s any information that can help make everyone friends instead of enemies. Then, he discovers that his older brother, Zhan Jinli, is the reincarnation of the Ghost King, and his second sister, Zhan Suiyu, is a superpowered person who came back from the apocalypse. Everyone thinks the others are ordinary people, and they are all trying to hide their true selves to maintain this ordinary and happy family. · Zhan Yan has a boyfriend, Gu Jiancheng, who is handsome, has a good personality, but is a bit clingy. Recently, Zhan Yan has been busy trying to save his crumbling family, so he’s been neglecting his boyfriend. Gu Jiancheng brings up their previous agreement to meet his parents. Zhan Yan hesitates: “How about we forget it?” Gu Jiancheng, heartbroken: “Why? Do you not love me anymore?” Zhan Yan: “No, it’s just that things are a bit complicated right now.” To divert his boyfriend’s attention, Zhan Yan starts looking up Gu Jiancheng’s gossip: 【Gu Jiancheng, feeling upset, brutally killed a hundred monsters that entered the real world from the Infinite World.】 Zhan Yan slowly lowers his head to look at Gu Jiancheng. Gu Jiancheng hugs his waist and doesn’t let go, rubbing his shoulder with a grievance: “Yan Yan, you’ve been so cold to me lately. You didn’t even give me a goodnight kiss last night.”

## My Thoughts on *The Gossip Revealed That My Whole Family Are Big Shots* ### First Impressions *The Gossip Revealed That My Whole Family Are Big Shots* immediately hooked me with its quirky premise. A seemingly ordinary guy discovers, thanks to a gossip-revealing system, that his entire family is secretly ridiculously powerful? Sign me up! The blend of comedy, shounen ai, and supernatural elements felt fresh and intriguing. It promises a fun ride with a protagonist who's hilariously unaware of the true nature of his family. ### What Works Well The family dynamic is definitely the heart of this story. The idea of a demon king father, a badass investigator mother, a reincarnated sister, and a ghost king brother, all living together under one roof without knowing each other's true identities, is comedic gold. I particularly enjoyed the main character's slow burn into becoming an information broker in the supernatural world. His motivations are endearing – he genuinely wants to protect his family, even if he's completely clueless about their capabilities. The male lead also seems promising, especially the emphasis on respecting personal space, which is a refreshing change of pace. The author has crafted a unique world where the supernatural is cleverly integrated into the modern setting, and I'm eager to see how it unfolds. ### Areas of Concern While the premise is strong, the ongoing translation status might be a stumbling block for some readers. There are also some terms that may be difficult to interpret without the proper context. ### ⚠️ Spoiler Warning Okay, so, the fact that the main character's clingy boyfriend used to be a top player in an infinite flow world? That's a detail I'm both excited and slightly apprehensive about. It adds another layer of complexity to the relationship, but I hope it's handled well and doesn't overshadow the other elements of the story. ### Final Verdict Overall, *The Gossip Revealed That My Whole Family Are Big Shots* is a novel with a lot of potential. Its comedic timing, unique premise, and focus on family dynamics make it a worthwhile read. While the translation status might require some patience, the payoff is well worth it for those seeking a lighthearted and entertaining supernatural story. I'm definitely sticking around to see how this hilarious family dynamic plays out and if the main character ever figures out just how extraordinary his "normal" family really is.
