Chapter 851: Bad Vibes
Indeed, the boy in front of Mei wasn’t June.
His back looked just like June’s. Even the way he dressed and carried himself reminded Mei of June.
At a glimpse, some could even say that the guy looked like June, especially the way he had his make-up done.
However, he definitely wasn’t June.
June was more handsome-a hundred times better.
Mei didn’t say that out loud, though. She would get caught dead before she complimented June out loud.
The guy snapped his fingers in front of Mei’s face, causing her to snap back to reality.
Then, he removed his cap, giving Mei a clear vision of his face.
She was no expert in make-up, but she thought it was completely obvious that he was trying out June’s make-up style. His contour was done to hide his slightly more prominent chin and bigger forehead.
He was still handsome, but without all the make-up, Mei would reckon that he would a lot less like June.
Then, it clicked on her.
She had seen this person before.
“Joonie?” she muttered.
Joonie smiled. “Mei, right?” he asked.
“Wow, you’re prettier in real life. I was starstruck for a moment there.”
“This is amazing. I didn’t think I would meet a celebrity on my first day in the company,” he added.
Mei pursed his lips. “You’re the celebrity here,” she said, aware of his popularity because of his recent variety show and interview appearances.
“Oh, stop it,” Joonie chuckled, waving the compliment off. However, it was pretty obvious that he enjoyed it very much.
Mei cleared her throat. “Well, I’m going now. I still have to practice with my team.”
“I’m sorry for pushing you like that,” she continued. “I thought you were someone else.”
With that, she bowed and left the guy all alone.
However, his next words made her halt in her spot.
“You thought I was June, huh?” he asked, satisfaction heard in his voice.
“Are you two dating or something?”
Mei frowned and swiftly turned around, only to see that Joonie’s expression had changed to a cockier one.
“What?” Mei asked, only being able to spit out one word.
“You’re dating, right?” he asked. “You can tell me. I won’t tell anyone!”
Mei’s eyes narrowed in suspicion. She had seen plenty of clips of Joonie on social media, and
he seemed entirely different from how he was portrayed on the show.
“No,” Mei simply said. “We’re friends.”
“Eyy,” Joonie chuckled. “Boys and girls can’t be friends like that.”
Mei pursed his lips. “I’m not entitled to explain anything. However, what you’re thinking is wrong.”
Joonie raised his hands in surrender. “You don’t have to be so mad, princess. I was just asking.”
Mei clicked his tongue, feeling her eyelid twitching.
“Sure,” she said through gritted teeth. “Now, if you’ll excuse me…”
With that, Mei walked away from him, more hurriedly this time.
She could still hear Joonie’s chuckles from a distance, causing her to clench her fists. “Bye, princess!”

“So, that’s for the third B-side song,” Ren said after presenting another song to his members.
“June helped with the chorus and the bridge of this one, and I think it turned out really nice,” he added.
“Really nice?” Akira exclaimed. “It’s near perfect! I still wouldn’t think of it as a title track, but this has a very high potential of being our promoted B-side track.”
“I agree,” Jaeyong said. “The melody is nice and addictive, and we can have an intense dance break in the bridge, too.”
“Really?” Ren asked. “I didn’t expect that.”
June subtly smiled and patted his back. “I told you they would love it.”
In fact, it was the type of song that could pass as a title track for other groups. However, the boys had something different in mind for their title track this year. They didn’t know what yet –but it wasn’t this.
Nonetheless, they still believed that the song needed to be included in their album.
“In fact, we love all three songs,” Jisung said with a wide smile. “They’re different, but somehow, they’re cohesive. I want all of them to be a part of the full album.”
“I agree,” Jay said. “Let’s keep these three for now. The other two already have lyrics, too.”
Jaeyong smiled in satisfaction. “We’re progressing so nicely for this album. I can’t wait to show it to astras on our anniversary.”
The boys nodded, also appearing excited.
“Anyway, send this song to me,” Jay said. “I, too, want it to be the promoted B-side track, so I’ll take it up with the marketing team.”
Ren nodded. “I’ll send it to you.”
“Sure,” Jay said. “Oh, our food is already downstairs. I’ll take it and announce something important later.”
Just then, June’s phone rang, so he brought it out of his pocket to look at the caller ID.
It was none other than Haruto.
June’s eyebrows raised in curiosity. Haruto rarely called him because he was extremely busy,
so he must be calling for something important.
“I’ll just take this,” June said, and the other members nodded.
He went to his room and closed the door before answering the call.
“Haruto,” he greeted.
“Junie! My little Junie!” Haruto exclaimed. “How are you doing?”
June pursed his lips. “Good, I guess,” he muttered.
“Well, I miss you very much!” Haruto said. “Don’t tell him that I said this, but Haruki misses
you a lot, too. He’s on his last leg of the tour, and he says he wants to hang out soon.”
June pursed his lips. “Is that the reason why you called me?”
“Why, yes!” Haruto exclaimed. “Can’t I call just because I miss my friend?”
June sighed. “I thought it was something important,” he deadpanned.
Haruto clicked his tongue. “Do my feelings not matter to you anymore? You don’t want me to
call you, is that it?”
“Stop being dramatic,” June said. “I’m going to hang up.”
“Wait!” Haruto exclaimed, making June click his tongue.
“I actually have something important to say.”
June sighed and didn’t speak, letting Haruto reveal it himself.
“Phoenix’s head.”
“I think I might have a lead on his whereabouts.”
