Chapter 392 Another One
"We have been selected for the project," Mr. Ong said, merrily spinning around his chair while playing with a zygote-shaped stress ball.
Yes, a zygote-shaped stress ball.
Jay bowed his head with a smile.
"Thank you, sir. I will relay this to the members," he said.
"How are they doing, by the way?" Mr. Ong asked.
"They're doing okay," Jay said. "They seem pretty tired with all the work they had to do for the past week, but they're coping well."
"Good," Mr. Ong said, still playing with his stress ball, now tossing it high in the air.
"And how's their center doing?"
"He's still in the hospital, sir," Jay responded. "I visited him yesterday, and he seemed to be recovering well. The doctor also said he's recovering faster than the average person."
"That's nice," Mr. Ong chimed.
Jay cleared his throat. "This project—how do we go with it while June is still in the hospital?"
"Beats me," Mr. Ong chuckled, causing Jay's eyebrows to furrow. "I say we start preparing for it now. We can't really delay anything since we're also going to be preparing for their comeback at the end of the first quarter."
"Do you think we can delay this project a little longer to wait for him? He's an integral part of the team," Jay insisted.
"They can't push back the date anymore. Other groups are already settled. They've known about it since last December. June will just have to adjust once he comes back. He can join the group when he's okay," Mr. Ong concluded.
Jay pursed his lips in frustration.
"Make sure they do well, okay?" Mr. Ong smiled, rolling over to where Jay was standing and placing a hand on his hip. Then, the older man tightened his hold on Jay's hips, squeezing tightly.
Jay flinched, feeling the pain radiate through his leg.
"I let the shooting incident pass since it gave many opportunities for ambassadorships. I just hope you don't commit the same mistake," he said, a wide smile on his face.
However, despite his happy expression, his eyes held a glint of seriousness, making Jay quiver.
Jay quickly nodded.
"That is noted, sir."
"Good," Mr. Ong exclaimed, removing his hold from Jay's hip.
"I'm looking forward to their performances."

One week had passed since June woke up, and he was now feeling better than ever. There was still an ache on his left shoulder, but it didn't debilitate him from doing his daily activities.
He could even dance with minimal pain now! You'll discover the inception of this content at n0v@lbin★
However, he was still bored out of his mind.
He even became more active on their group chat, but it seemed like all his members were busy since they only replied late into the night.
Minjun diligently went to school, too, so June was all alone in his boring room.
Dr. Oh came a few times to pester him into participating in a 'human' project, but June didn't find it interesting or ethical.
So, for now, he was stuck scrolling on Navel to satiate his boredom.
- I know the company said that June was alive and well, but I'm still worried.
- June, are you really alive?
- We haven't heard from him ever since the incident. I feel like he's severely injured.
"Don't worry," Dr. Oh said. "The bills have already been paid by the company."
"Sweet," June exclaimed. "I'm gonna go now, then."
"Wait," Dr. Oh said, causing June to halt. "You're not going to call for your manager?"
"They're probably busy. I'll just take a cab," June said.
"Are you sure?" Dr. Oh asked. "I can give you a ride to the company, and we can talk about...research matters," he suggested.
June shook his head in amusement.
"I'm not participating in your human research, Dr. Oh."
The doctor slumped in disappointment while June happily skipped out of the hospital room.
It felt like he had been stuck there for years, so just merely seeing the sun had already brought a smile to his face.
He quickly hailed a cab to take him to the Azure building. He saw from the group chat that his members were practicing for a performance (one he didn't know of), so he decided to give them a surprise.
June arrived at the building and wasted no time in going to their designated practice room.
He stood outside the door for a while, listening to his members' friendly bickering.
"I think you should stay here in the middle," Akira said.
"I don't suit this part," Jaeyong said. "Why don't we have Ren try it?"
"But I'm already in the middle for the part before this," Ren sighed.
"I think June would suit this part the best, honestly," Jisung said, causing June to smile.
It seemed like his members missed him quite a bit.
With that, June opened the door, revealing himself to his members.
They were baffled, to say the least.
They were planning on fetching June from the hospital on the day of his discharge, yet here he was!
"What are you doing here?" Jaeyong asked, still perplexed.
"I'm all better now," June said, making his way inside. "I see you're having a hard time without me," he smirked.
The members stared at him for a while before he was bombarded with hugs.
"Bro!" Jisung exclaimed, practically throwing himself at June. "You're here!"
Casper silently walked to his side and gave him a little poke.
"You all better now?" he asked.
June nodded.
"I'm so glad you're here," Zeth said. "It was so hard acting as a center proxy for our previous performances."
June chuckled, looking at the relieved faces of his teammates.
"I see that you're all working hard," June commended them. "You guys took a lot of projects while I was gone."
"Tell me about it," Akira sighed. "We haven't gotten any rest for the past weeks. Not to mention, we still have to alter our opening performance now that you're here."
June frowned in confusion, tilting his head to the side.
"Opening performance? For what?" he asked.
"For King of Kings," Sehun said.
June frowned. "King of Kings?"
His members looked at each other with perplexed expressions before turning toward him.
"King of Kings," Zeth repeated. "The new survival show we're going to participate in!"
