From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

Chapter 756 Complicated

June sat in his bed, trying to think about everything that had happened in the past few days. He looked absent-minded, borderline crazy, with a blank look in his eyes. It was a good thing that the finale for Rising Stars has been rescheduled because of what happened. Otherwise, June would have really gone crazy.

Then, without any warning, a few chuckles escaped his lips. After a few seconds, the chuckles turned into full-blown laughter, even escaping through the soundproof walls. The members, who were outside of June's room, turned to each other with wide eyes. "Should we go in?" Jisung asked in a worried tone. Casper held onto June's door and shook his head. "Let him be," he said. "We need to give him some privacy." June's laughing session lasted for a while. He didn't know if he was going insane.

He might as well be with all the revelations that had emerged. "I'm not dying," June muttered. "I just have fucking anemia!" Then, he fell to his bed, scratching his head in frustration. "I swear, I could kill Dr. Oh at this moment," he grumbled. June had already done everything he could because he knew he was going to die. He already gave his system away! He had indirectly said goodbye to his friends and fans. He had buried the fucking briefcase in his old apartment's foundation to prevent it from being exploited. June finally stopped laughing as reality hit him. However, even then, there were some things he wouldn't have done if he didn't know that he was dying. June would not have enough courage to speak up against their CEO regarding their unfair treatment. He also wouldn't have been able to stop Chul as the gunman since he would have acted with hesitation. And lastly, he wouldn't have been able to realize just how precious life was if he hadn't come close to losing it. "It's not that bad," June said, almost as if he was trying to reassure himself. Then, he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "It's not that bad," he repeated in a more resolute voice this time. Then, when he opened his eyes, a murderous look appeared. It seemed like he had more time to save the idol industry. June knew that it was far from saving, but with the new chance he was granted, he also knew that he could make a difference. He shook his head as his mind was filled with a thousand ideas. "Since when did I get so ambitious?" he muttered in disbelief. However, even then, he couldn't shake a certain thought away. Revenge.

Then, his glare intensified as he looked at himself in the mirror.

June knew that Grandma's death was inevitable. However, even then, he knew that Laohu and Lin Zhi took a huge part in taking away her life. Moreover, June was done playing nice. It was time to bring out some of his old traits. "You want to play dirty, huh?" ***

June and the other members of EVE were being scolded for missing their prior 'appointments' because they decided to accompany June to Grandma Areum's burial. Jay sighed in frustration. "I've already got it handled," he said to Mr. Ong. "Those affected have been informed." Mr. Ong's eyebrows raised in surprise. "I see," he said. "So, you have some time to inform our stakeholders, but not me." "Because like I said, I've got it covered, sir," Jay said with conviction. June smirked. That was also one thing that had changed after Jay discovered June's supposed illness. He had gotten more courage to stand up to his higher-ups rather than kissing their asses. Mr. Ong frowned. "There's something in the way you're talking that I don't like," he remarked. With that, Mr. Ong stood, which was not much of a surprise to the boys anymore.

After EVE started acting out, he had been getting angrier than usual. "Anyway, how can you say you've got it covered when you don't even watch your kids well?" Mr. Ong exclaimed. "I still can't forgive how June decided to intercept a possible national emergency!" Casper scratched the back of his head. "It was pretty cool, though." "Yeah," Ren smirked. "He didn't even get harmed." Mr. Ong's face looked like it was about to explode. "All actions by EVE shall be reported to me prior to its accomplishment." "Even your social media posts." "What?" the members of EVE exclaimed, feeling that it was unfair. Mr. Ong smirked. "You guys are under a contract. One breach of it, and I am not afraid to negotiate the terms with the company lawyers. At the end of the day, you guys are under my supervision." "So, with that, your every move, every word, or even your every intention shall be passed onto me for approval." Then, he sat back down, now with a calm smile. "You got that?" he said with a smirk. Jay was supposed to oppose him, but the CEO glared at him. "Don't forget that you are our under our contract, too," Mr. Ong said. "Do you want to continue speaking, or do you want to be transferred to another department?" The members of EVE turned to Jay with concerned looks. Then, Jay shook his head before standing from his seat. The boys quickly followed. Jay bowed for a brief second before leading the boys out of Mr. Ong's office. As soon as they got out, he burst into anger. "I can't believe that man! He's built like a teapot, yet he's so full of fucking hate!" Ren nudged his shoulder, causing Jay to glare at him. "What?" he snapped. Ren pointed inside the CEO's office. "He could still hear you," he said. Jay turned his head to the side and saw that Mr. Ong was, indeed, glaring at him through the transparent glass wall.

Jay pursed his lips and bolted to the elevator while the boys followed with amused smiles. They entered the elevator but still couldn't shake away Mr. Ong's words. "Is everything he said even legal?" Akira asked. "About us reporting our every move?" "Technically, it is. We signed a contract, so even our social media presence can be controlled by them," June responded, crossing his arms in front of his chest. "But just because it's legal does not mean its good." "Right," Jay said. "If I become the CEO, I would never do that to my artists!" Akira looked at Jay with pity as he patted his back. "You can keep on dreaming, bro." Jay smirked as he crossed his arms in front of his chest. "Oh, brother," he smiled. "You have no idea how much power I have in my hands right now," he exclaimed before laughing like a villain. June turned to him before shaking his head. Their plan needed to be more complicated now. "Hey, Jay," June said, causing him to halt his laughter. "Come with me after you bring the boys back to the dorm." Jay's eyes widened. "I'm down! You guys don't have any schedules for today anyway." "Can I come?" Casper asked with bright eyes. "No," June deadpanned.
