Chapter 783 The Industry Is Crap
June froze at Lei’s question. The others, too, frowned in confusion. “That’s some relationship type of shit,” Akira commented. June wracked his mind for some kind of excuse. He knew just how bad Mei’s pineapple allergy was, so he acted without thinking. “Uh—it was in her profile,” June answered. “The mentors went through them meticulously, so I got to know that she’s dangerously allergic to pineapple.” They were silent for a moment before Ara exclaimed. “Ah! The form we filled out for the cafeteria?” Ara asked. “They did ask us to disclose our allergies so they know what to prepare.” “Yes, that!” June exclaimed, feeling slightly relieved. Mina tilted her head to the side in confusion. “The mentors even go through all of that?” she asked, amazement heard in her voice. June chuckled. “I only went through my team’s allergy list since I treated them a lot,” he bluffed. “I didn’t want a legal case.” They burst into chuckles. “That makes a lot of sense,” Ara said. Then, she gasped loudly. “Is that the reason why you didn’t order anything with fish in it because you knew I was allergic?” she excitedly asked. June pursed his lips before nodding in agreement. “Yeah,” he said. “That’s why.” “Aww!” Ara exclaimed. “Mentor June is so caring.” June awkwardly chuckled and scratched the back of his neck. Well, fish wasn’t really a practical thing to order in the practice room, so he never even thought of ordering it. Fortunately, it seemed like they got over the topic quickly as they started conversing about the idol life and what to expect.
The boys stayed at their girls’ dorm for a good hour, sharing advice about the industry and how to have an easier time in it. “You should be extra careful,” Casper warned. “The industry is harsh on all individuals, but I find that it is the harshest to women. You will encounter quite a lot of unwanted comments and even touches. I would suggest calling for help when that happens.” The girls nodded in understanding. Mina cleared her throat and turned to June. “Thank you for yesterday, by the way,” she said, an appreciative smile on his face. June raised his eyebrows in surprise. “What did I do?” he asked. “You tipped over the oyster rack,” she smiled. “Mr. Ong stopped touching my waist after that one.” “Oh, so it wasn’t an accident?” Lei asked. Jay shook his head. “It wasn’t. June did a good job playing it off, though.” Lei chuckled in amusement. “Well, it seems like June is truly a wise and proper man. Between you and me, I also don’t like Mr. Ong that much.” “Same!” the boys exclaimed. Jay sighed and patted Lei’s back. “I really have a hunch that we’re going to get along well with each other.” Lei nodded with a genuine smile. June observed him, and at that moment, he became confused once again. Could he really be mistaken? Just then, their eyes met, and Lei also smiled at him with genuineness. “Thanks for protecting the girls, June,” he sincerely said. June pursed his lips and nodded. With that, they started cleaning up the plates and helping the girls settle in. Lei and Jay were currently speaking with Mr. Ong on the phone, probably about the arrangements and restrictions between the two teams. Mei was alone in her room, so June decided to knock on her open door. Mei turned around and frowned when she saw that it was June. “Is there something you need?” she asked. “In fact, I do,” he said. “I need to talk with you.” “For what?” Mei asked. June pointed to his mind, and at that moment, Mei knew that he wanted to talk about Fu.
“Meet me at the back of the stairs in an hour,” June said. “It’ll be quick.” With that, he left her room without waiting for her confirmation. ***
It was already late in the afternoon when June went out of their dorm to go to the back of the stairs and meet with Mei. Much to his surprise, she was already there when he arrived. “You came,” June said. Mei clicked her tongue as she leaned against the wall. “I was debating on it. But I also have some questions regarding this guy.” June crossed his arms in front of his chest. “Ask away,” he said. Mei sighed before asking her first question. “Is he always this annoying?” she asked. June burst into laughter as soon as Mei said those words. “Yes,” he responded after his laughing fit. “He annoyed me to death, and he always gave me the most ridiculous missions. However, I’ve come to realize that the missions were actually beneficial.” “One thing I wished I knew before fulfilling such missions was that it could possibly be the answer to my future problems.” Mei sighed. “Well, it doesn’t seem that way.” June chuckled. “What are your missions right now?” he asked. “I’ve already completed two—be part of the debut line-up and take a photo with 5 famous people.” “Now, I need to learn someone’s real name,” she said, sounding confused. June was confused, too. “Someone’s real name? What does that even mean?” “I also don’t know,” Mei said. “But I’ll figure it out somehow.” Silence passed them for a few seconds before Mei broke it. “And you?” she asked. “Why did you call me here?” June sighed. “Honestly, I just wanted to give you a warning.” “A warning?” Mei asked. “The thing that happened yesterday with Mr. Ong—those are daily occurrences in some places. I wanted to tell you to take care of yourself. However, don’t fight back too much. You’ll only get hurt in the end.” Mei frowned in confusion.
“So what?” she asked. “If something like that happens, I should just stand still and take it?” “That’s not what I mean,” June said. “Then, what should I do?”
“Tell me,” June said. “You need to tell me or any member of EVE. We’re going to handle it.” Now, June realized why he had to change the idol industry. It wasn’t only because of his sister but because of instances like this. He knew he couldn’t eradicate it completely, but he could definitely try. “Why are you doing all of this, though?” she softly asked. “Why go through the hassle of helping me?” June smirked. “It’s because I care about you.” Just then, they heard what seemed like keys drop to the ground. Their eyes widened, and they turned their gazes to the sound. Then, there they saw none other than Manager Lei.
