Chapter 531 Still The Beginning

'Will I start every arc in the hospital?' June thought as he opened his eyes, being greeted with the familiar viewpoint.

He was already used to waking up in the hospital with a white cloth over his face, too, so he removed it and turned to the reason for the occlusion.

"Hi, Dr. Oh," he sighed, feeling the aura of the familiar doctor.

He raised one eyebrow in inquiry when he saw he wasn't in his usual white coat and was dressed in a suit instead. June was about to ask him about his get-up but decided not to in the end.

Dr. Oh was just weird.

Simple as that.

"Hey there!" Dr. Oh exclaimed, smiling as he was greeted with June's handsome face.

"Do you even take day-offs?" June asked, sitting from the bed. "You're always here when I get admitted."

"Careful," Dr. Oh said. "Your IV line might get dislodged."

June frowned when he saw the IV fluid attached to him. What even happened?

"And to answer your question—yes. I maximize my day-offs. However, I heard you were here, so I canceled my wife and I's date and went here right away!"

June's frown deepened.

"Are you sure that's okay?" he asked.

"It's alright," Dr. Oh enthusiastically said. "She even urged me to go when she found out it was you."

June shook his head, acting like he didn't just hear Dr. Oh's statement.

Just then, the door burst open, revealing a worried Jay and Jaeyong.

"He's awake?" Jay asked. "Thank goodness! I thought you got shot or stabbed again."

June tried to recall what happened but couldn't remember anything after Haruki said a name—Haruto.

When the first of them met, June thought that Haruki looked familiar. However, his name didn't ring a bell.

On the other hand, June felt like he was transported back to the past once he heard 'Haruto.'

"Do you know what happened?" June asked.

"I don't know," Jaeyong said. "Jisung said you went to the restroom, but you weren't there. We started looking for you, but again, we couldn't find you anywhere. Thankfully, Dr. Oh contacted us that you were here, so Jaeyong and I went right away."

June turned to Dr. Oh. "Who brought me here?"

"No," he responded hesitantly. "He fainted, though. I think that's already enough of a testament that he needs more rest."

"Is he awake right now?" the CEO asked.

"Yes. We're heading back to the dorms," Jay said.

"Then, he must be alright," Mr. Ong concluded."We have booked this venue beforehand, and we can't afford to book it for another day just because of one member."

"But the doctor said—"

"Doctors are quacks sometimes," Mr. Ong chuckled. "You said it yourself—June is not in any form of distress. He should be okay. Besides, there are still a couple of hours before the evening shoot. He can rest then."

Jay was about to argue once more, but Mr. Ong had already ended the call, making him sigh in frustration.

"He said no, right?" June asked from behind him.

Jay sighed as he glanced behind June, feeling even worse for his situation. Looking at him now, he does look a bit exhausted.

"Yeah," Jay said. "He said that they can't afford to book the venue for another day."

"What a scam," Jaeyong muttered. "I'm sure we brought in a lot of money during our debut. Where are they redirecting that budget?"

"To their pockets, of course," June said, aware of how dirty big corporations were.

"What are we going to do then?" Jay asked, biting his lip.

"It's still in the evening, right?" June asked.

"I can just rest for a bit until the shoot."

"But you have another schedule tomorrow," Jay sighed. "You guys have to film promotional videos for your social media pages."

"I can do it," June said. His head was still aching, but he attributed it to the fact that his past was brought to life once more.

His physical well-being was honestly the least of his worries right now.

Instead, he realized that there were a lot of demons in both his and Choi Joon-ho's past.

He hasn't shown his worries much, but LinZhi and Laohu still haven't left his mind. And with the addition of Haruto, June thought he wouldn't be able to sleep soundly anyway.

June sighed, leaning his head and looking out of the window.

He knew he said it was merely the beginning.

However, he didn't expect to find out that he hadn't come far after all.

"There's still so much to figure out," he whispered.
