778 Creepy Old Men
"Why did he call for all of us?" Akira groaned as he continued cating the snacks that the company had prepared.
Jaeyong clicked his tongue. "You don't have the right to complain. You've eaten half of the stuff on the snack table."
Currently, the workers, including interns, internal staff, and some artists who didn't have schedules, were gathered in Azure's biggest conference room.
Akira sighed. "That still doesn't change the fact that we don't know why we're here."
"Did anybody tell you, Jay?" he asked.
Jay shook his head. "I have no idea. This is the first time Mr. Ong has called everyone from Azure Entertainment"
"The only complaint I have is that we don't have any seats," Zeth chimed. "Why are those old people the only ones with seats?"
"Well, to be fair, some of them can't walk for five minutes without their joints wearing down," Akira chimed.
"That's another thing!" Zeth added. "I also don't understand why so many old people run to company. It's the same with politics!" he ranted. "Why are the ones leading the country on the brink of death?"
"Well, you seem to have a lot of opinions," Jay chimed.
"I want to go home," Akira whined, stuffing his mouth with sweet olives.
Jisung shook his head. "Don't complain so much. If someone has the right to complain, then it's June."
The boys turned toward June, who was currently being bombarded by people from different age brackets.
"June! Can I have a picture too?"
"My daughter likes you very much. Are you single?"
"Can I please have your autograph?"
"June, right? Why don't you dance for us later?"
Zeth shook his head in amusement. "Who bets that June is in a bad mood?" he asked.
The members, along with Jay, all raised their hands.
"Oh, it's obvious," Jay chuckled. "Ile hates it."
Truth be told, June wanted nothing but to get away from people whose breaths smelled like caviar.
Fortunately, June's misery was cut short when the door opened, revealing Mr. Ong in his signature chair.
As soon as the people realized that it was Mr. Ong, they moved away from June and bowed in respect.
June sighed in relief and went back to his members, who were looking at him with teasing smiles.
Mr. Ong wandered his eyes around, smiling in satisfaction when all of them were bowing. However, his smile fell and a small frown made its way to his face when he saw that June wasn't bowing his head at him-not even the slightest.
Mr. Ong narrowed his eyes at June, but he merely smirked.
There was no way that June was going to bow down for him. June only bowed for people who deserved it.
Mr. Ong's jaw clenched, but he quickly smiled when the others greeted him enthusiastically. "Now," he said, making them silent. "You might be wondering why I have called all of you to this gathering. This is a special day, so I want to celebrate it with all of you."
The crowd murmured excitedly, and the members of EVE also wondered what Mr. Ong had up his sleeves.
"As you all know, the fifth season of Rising Stars had just ended, and we now have a girl group under our wing"
"To commemorate this special moment, I decided to throw a party for the girls!" he exclaimed. Zeth narrowed his eyes. "Did he do something like this for us?"
"Definitely not," Sehun chimed.
"IImm, interesting, Ren remarked.
The doors opened, revealing the five members of LUNAIRE. They were fully made-up, and their pretty, almost fairy-like visuals instantly brightened up the room.
"I'm not mad, though," Akira smiled. "I would love to talk to our junior group!"
June clicked his tongue and held out his arm to stop Akira from walking closer to the group of girls. Then, he glared at him.
"Don't even think about it," he warned. "Stay professional."
Akira was about to argue, but he saw the seriousness in June's expression, so he sighed and nodded in compliance.
"Here are the girls!" Mr. Ong exclaimed, standing next to them.
There was a mischievous look in his eyes, and June swore that he had never seen him so happy.
The others, too, especially the older men, looked particularly excited, making June bite his lip. Mr. Ong extended his arm so it rested on Mina's shoulder.
"Aren't they pretty?" he asked. "I will make sure that they will also become the Nation's Girl Group, similar to EVE. I had done everything in my will to get EVE to the top, and look at where they are now."
The staff nodded like blind little mice-ready to accept and obey everything that Mr. Ong was saying.
Just then, Mr. Ong's hand slowly lowered down, causing June's eyes to narrow further.
"Omo" Tionna one not liking how the girle hecame increasingly uncomfortable
June looked around to see if other people found it weird. Some of the interns, especially the young women, looked away, also looking uncomfortable.
llowever, the other workers, more specifically the creepy old men, were enjoying the show.
"I think we should do something," Jaeyong said.
Zeth clicked his tongue. "He's worse than I thought."
"Look at Mina," Ren whispered. "It looks like she's about to cry"
Mina also attempted to move away, but Mr. Ong continued gripping her waist as he boasted
about his achievements.
June could see the members of LUNAIRE glancing uneasily at each other, and at that moment, he recognized something from Mei's eyes.
June clicked his tongue.
His sister was going to explode soon.
She was a very righteous person and couldn't stand others being bullied, so June knew that she was bound to say something out loud.
However, as much as June admired her for that, he also knew how tough was to establish at reputation in the industry when you have barely debuted.
Mr. Ong's hand was getting dangerously low.
So, at that moment, June looked around.
Then, when he saw a near-empty tower of oysters, he went over to it and smirked.
Jay's eyes widened in surprise.
"What are you doing?" he whisper-shouted, trying to stop June.
However, it was too late.
June had placed his hand on top of the metal tower and tipped the entire thing over, causing it
to fall to the ground with a loud bang.
