From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show
chapter-858

The set was filled with laughter as June was handed his eating utensils.

He tilted his head to look at it, making him look like a lost puppy. The producers quickly directed the cameras to focus on him.

They were expecting him to look annoyed, especially since he had the most questionable utensil. However, he merely looked confused, making him appear like a cute animal.

"A pair of scissors?" June asked before looking straight into the camera.

He glanced at Joonie's toy set before looking at his scissors.

"How are you going to eat with that?" Casper asked concern heard in his voice.

"He deserves it," Akira chuckled out loud, bouncing to where June was. "How can he not recognize himself?"

Ren chuckled along with Akira.

"I recognized it right away. You went viral with that selfie," he said.

June sighed. "I don't even remember taking it."

"I think it was in the hospital when you were stabbed by that one contestant," Jisung said. "It's a famous photo."

June ran his fingers through his hair. "I think I blocked it out of my memory."

"Well, yes," Jaeyong said. "I remember people telling you that you were bad at taking photos."

"He's still bad," Zeth chimed. "Although his photocards are still the most expensive ones."

"Alright, settle down again," Ramil PD said. "This is the time for you to eat to your heart's content. We will bring out the food and tables here. Feel free to use your utensils to eat."

As the staff brought out the food to the garden, the artists couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

"This is it!" Akira exclaimed, putting his hand over his mouth and feeling touched. "This is what I've been looking forward to!"

"This is too much," Ara complained, having only a plastic cup to be able to eat her food.

Just then, she received a look from one of the talent managers from behind the crew, so she quickly pursed her lips.

"Time to eat," Ramil exclaimed as he presented the buffet to them. "However, this is a one- time-only buffet, which means that you can only get food once," he instructed.

Jordan shook his head in amusement. "Ramil PD is as strict as always."

"That's what makes his shows a hit, though," Nico stated, already excited to get some food since his plate was large.

Akira didn't have to be told twice. Although he had a flimsy paper plate, he quickly dug in and piled his food on top of it before sitting on one of the tables dedicated to EVE.

The others also lined up, excited to eat since, for most of them, this was their first meal.

Joonie lined up but stopped when he saw that LUNAIRE was behind him.

"You can go first," he said with a sweet smile.

Jeemin smiled politely and bowed at the guy. Mei, on the other hand, still felt that there was something iffy about him.

However, she bowed her head in respect since they were in front of the cameras.

"I'll go last," Joonie said to the members of BOYMYSTIC, too, who found his kindness bizarre.

"Huh," Jordan muttered. "He really is kind as everyone makes him out to be."

Nico scoffed, covering his microphone for a moment. "I don't buy it," he whispered to their past leader, causing the latter to chuckle in amusement.

Joonie was now at the end of the line, looking to see if anyone was still behind him.

Then, he saw June standing a few feet away from him, appearing deep in thought.

Joonie put on a kind smile and was about to call him, but June went to their seats with an unreadable expression.

He pursed his lips since he hadn't had the chance to act kind to June. With that, he silently sighed and moved closer to the line for the food.

June waited patiently as his members went back to their seats. Casper and Sehun had the most food with their large ass plates. They piled it to the brim, and they both turned to June.

"Do you want some?" Casper asked. "I brought enough food for us two."

"Me too," Sehun smiled.

"Me three," Jisung chimed despite having a smaller plate.

Akira pursed his lips and pushed his full paper plate towards June. "Even if these are all my favorites, you can have some, too."

June shook his head and looked at the camera filming them. "It won't be fair," he said. "It's the rules of the game."

Just then, someone interrupted their conversation by clearing his throat.

They lifted their head and saw none other than Joonie, who was looking at them with a bright smile.

"Hi, can I sit here?" he asked, pertaining to the extra seat on their table.

The boys looked at each other. Casper was about to protest, but Jaeyong smiled and nodded before he could.

"Sure," he said. "Go ahead."

Casper pursed his lips and started eating his food to prevent himself from saying anything

bad.

"Thank you so much," Joonie smiled.

With Joonie joining their table, more cameras pointed toward their table, wanting to see more

of their interactions.

Joonie looked around the table and couldn't help but feel apprehensive.

Their face cards were all lethal, so he wondered if he was being mogged. But then again, he

was often likened to June, so he thought that he was still safe.

They kept eating while engaging in casual conversations. Joonie glanced at June and pursed

his lips. He looked much better up close.

"Do you feel bad?" Joonie suddenly asked.

June snapped out of his thoughts and looked up at him.

"Huh?" he asked.

"You look down," Joonie smiled. "Are you alright?"

'Is he a therapist or something?' June thought, finding him ridiculously kind.

"No," June deadpanned. "I'm just thinking."

"Oh," Joonie muttered, appearing surprised by his answer. "I see."

"Besides," June said. "I think you should worry about your food more. Is that enough to fill

you up?"

Joonie smiled. "I don't eat much. I can really share with you."

June shook his head and took the pair of scissors from the table.

"They must have given this to me for a good reason," he started off, capturing the attention

of everyone at the table.

"Oh no," Jaeyong muttered. "What are you planning, June?"

June shrugged and stood from his seat. "I'll be back."

The others watched June, wondering what the unpredictable man was going to do.

The members of EVE knew how June lacked media training, or frankly, he didn't just care.

However, they were always afraid of what he was going to do next.

Truth be told, his next action was something they didn't expect.

"Is he climbing a tree?"
