From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show

771 I Practically Raised Her

June opened the envelope and pursed his lips as soon as he read the name inside.

Then, he brought the microphone to his lips.

"Mina," he announced.

Mina's eyes widened while Mei clapped for her.

June expected it to be Mei, but he also wasn't mad that Mina had become a center candidate. Undoubtedly, she was the trainee with the most training time and had a lot of talent.

Yes, Mina! I would have rioted if she wasn't in the line-up!

-The four girls already look promising. I wouldn't be mad if anyone joined them at this point. - Gosh darn. This is a good line-up.

- Truly! Azure needs to take care of them well.

Zeth and Ren, who were from the same company, stood and showed happy smiles to the

camera.

Jeemin and Mina, on the other hand, held each other's hands as they waited for June to announce the center of the debut team.

June was silent for a few moments, building the tension before he finally announced the results. "And the center of LUNAIRE is..."

"Jeemin," he exclaimed.

The crowd burst into congratulatory cheers. It was quite expected. In the entire season, she had been voted as the first-ranked trainee every round.

She was somehow the Zeth of the season. However, there wasn't a twist. She managed to keep her rank until the end.

The two of them shared their speeches before making their way up to the seats.

As the bright music faded, the arena was once again filled with nervousness and intensity as June held the last envelope in his hands.

"Mei," he whispered as he held onto it, manifesting for his sister to somehow make it in.

[You know, if you don't debut here, your brother might die.]

Mei sighed as her pesky system appeared before her right again.

'I don't even have a brother,' she thought.

[Alright. Whatever you say.]

[Anyway. You really have to debut here. If you don't, I won't be able to see June often.]

'Is that why you want me to debut under Azure?"

[Duh! Why else would I want you to debut in Azure aside from June? That company is shit.] 'Well then, you wouldn't mind if I failed here."

[Don't say that! Then, that would mean that I also failed as a system.]

[I can't fail.]

[I've never failed.]

[Or maybe it's just because June is my host.]

[I love June a lot, have I told you that?]

"Mei!"

"Shut up," she exclaimed, louder than usual, making the other aspirants turn to her with wide eyes.

At that moment, Mei realized that almost all of the people were looking her way-even the audience.

She was confused, looking at the camera with wide eyes.

"It seems like she's still in shock," June said, chuckling in amusement.

Mei turned to June, and she saw him smiling with twinkling cycs.

"Get up there," Zonya exclaimed, making Mei even more shocked.

Then, she pointed to herself in disbelief, earning chuckles from the crowd.

"Yes, Mei," June said. "You're part of the debut line-up."

Mei still couldn't believe it, but her legs started moving toward the stage, almost as if she were in auto mode.

At that moment, it felt like everything had faded.

All she could see was the stage and the path leading to victory.

However, from her peripheral vision was June, and at that very second, she felt tears brimming in her eyes.

On the other side of the stage were her old parents, who had come all the way from China. Although they were originally opposed to her dream, they were gazing at her with teary eyes that were filled with pride.

Mei felt her heart race as she stopped in the very middle.

June smiled at her, his mind suddenly flashing to the times when Mei was still young.

She was very cute then-very hard-headed and stubborn. However, that was one of her charms.

Mei was one of the strongest people that June knew.

However, in his presence, he also saw Mei's vulnerabilities.

They grew up together without their parents, and seeing Mei on the big stage made June emotional.

He felt tears brimming in his eyes, but he subtly blinked them away to avoid any suspicion.

"I practically raised her," he muttered.

Mei stepped up to the grab the microphone and cleared her throat.

Mei is in the line-up! The girl group is now complete.

- I can't believe that all of my picks made it in!

- Ew. Why did someone like her make it in? Now, the line-up is ruined. freēwebnovel.com

-That's true. Although she had improved, she is inherently not as good as the other girls. She'll just fail to keep up with them.

- I don't care what anybody has to say. I'll just think that all of you are coming from a bad place. I pity you for projecting your misery onto a talented person. Mei is very good, and she will keep the balance in the team.

The crowd quieted down as Mei let out a heavy sigh.

"This is something I didn't expect," she smiled.

"I know that I have placed high in the past rankings, but I am also aware of my shortcomings as a trainee. In no way am I complete. I lowever, I want to say that I will work my hardest to get

closer to that completion."

"To my parents," she said, turning to the old couple on the side of the stage.

They were shown on the big screen with teary eyes, and the crowd couldn't help but aww at the

happenings.

She switched to her mother tongue, so June still managed to understand her.

"I know that you were against this dream in the beginning. I know that it's hard, but it would be harder if I'm not able to do it. I won't regret ever taking this path, and I would also do my best so

you won't regret supporting me."

"To the girls who didn't make it, she said, switching back to Korean.

"Thank you for being patient with me. I want to say that this is just the beginning for all of us. It

won't be the last time that we will see each other."

"To our mentors," she continued, glancing at them.

The mentors did a thumbs up, all seemingly satisfied with the line-up.

"Thank you for guiding me in this journey. I would have never gotten it far if it weren't for you"

June was expecting Mei to end the speech right there.

Ilowever, he was surprised when she suddenly called his name.

"And for mentor June...
