786 June Proposes A Charity Concert
June was still unsure about Lei's real identity. So, he decided to let it go for now. He had tried asking Bo Wen, but he also didn't have a clue. Laohu's identity was a mystery to him, too. It seemed like Lin Zhi was the only person who knew about his real identity. However, Lin Zhi was dead, so that wouldn't really help. For now, June wanted to watch how Lei truly acted and see if there were any holes in his personality. However, he has another thing bugging him, so he decided to address that first. "Can't you tell the company about it?" June asked. "Oh, I will tell them," Jay said. "I really think it's a good idea, too. You guys are earning a decent amount, so giving back to people in need is a really commendable cause." "I just don't know if the company will agree," Jay said. "I would say that there's a 0.1% chance of them agreeing." June clicked his tongue. "What's the harm in joining a charity concert? We also don't have as many schedules this month because they delayed the comeback."
Mr. Ong pursed his lips, appearing to be thinking about it. For a moment, Jay and June felt like they had finally convinced the old man. However, a small cheeky smile made its way back to his face. "I can't do that," he said. "My reputation is already ruined anyway, so I don't need things like this to save me." Just then, the doors opened, and Lei came in. His eyes widened when he saw that Mr. Ong wasn't alone. "Oh, pardon," he said. "I thought you were free, sir." Mr. Ong smiled as soon as he saw Lei. Lei was about to leave, but the CEO quickly stopped him. "I am free," he said. "I'm done with my discussion with these two." "Go ahead and tell me what you need." Lei scratched the back of his head as he bowed to June and Jay. "Sorry for interrupting," Lei said. "I had just finished going through the magazine shoots of LUNAIRE. I picked the ones that I felt were fitted for the girls. I believe that they shouldn't go on so many shoots as that makes them too accessible. We'll be able to elevate their reputation if we only keep the most prestigious ones." A satisfied smile made its way to Mr. Ong's face. "That's more like it," Mr. Ong said. Then, he turned out to be Jay. "This is how you should be handling your artists. You need to think about their well-being while also bringing in the most money for the company!" With his statement, Jay directed his gaze to the ground. "Umm, Jay is also doing a great job, sir," Lei said. "He's one of the reasons why EVE is so successful these days." "Really," Mr. Ong said, sounding sarcastic. "Sometimes, I think that it's because of Chul." June's jaw clenched as Mr. Ong mentioned the unhinged man. He couldn't believe that he just commended a killer. June shook his head. "I see," June muttered. "You support murderers, but you can't even support good causes." Mr. Ong snapped his gaze to June at lightning speed after he said those words. "What did you just say?" he exclaimed. Lei's eyes widened while Jay continued feeling upset. "Let's calm down," Lei said, chuckling nervously. "Calm down?" Mr. Ong exclaimed. "How can I calm down if this idiot always shames me?" "Just because I don't want to agree to your charity concert, this is how you're going to treat me?" June continued looking into his eyes, not showing any remorse. "Charity concert?" Lei suddenly asked. Mr. Ong sighed and massaged his nose bridge. "They want to hold a charity concert for a sick child...and they want to perform in it. Ridiculous, right? How could such big stars perform in such a small venue?" June was about to argue once more, but he was cut off by none other than Lei. "I actually think that it's a pretty good idea."
