Chapter 7: Mi Ah Nei

cable TV production wasn't a priority for the company, and initially, the staff member responsible for coordinating schedules even considered asking Ji Jingyuan to take time off from filming to attend...…………

After Wu Saike walked out of the president's office, he walked down the hallway in a daze, like a zombie.

His mind was in chaos, a jumble of thoughts swirling and entangling with each other. The immense shock felt like being hit on the head ten times with a 10T iron hammer, causing various images to uncontrollably flash before his eyes.

One second he was sweating from his own practice, the next he was transformed into Kim Young-min's cold expression, then suddenly he became himself playing with a female trainee, and then again it was the scene of him successfully debuting as a TOPSTAR and being cheered on and pursued by everyone...

This floor was a high one, rarely visited by anyone. At this time, there wasn't a sound in the hallway, only his own light and soft footsteps, some barely audible, accompanied by the various scenes playing out in his mind, making Wu Saike feel as if he were in another world.

I don't know how long he walked for, but Wu Saik finally regained consciousness a little. He looked around in confusion and realized he had reached the top of the second floor staircase.

The company's practice rooms are usually on the first floor or in the basement, and he used to practice in a basement practice room. However, after being selected for EXO's debut group, he had long since said goodbye to that place, that memory of a dark, damp, and smelly place filled with sweat.

And EXO's practice room is on the second floor. He practiced there before going to the president's office. He just came out from there a few minutes ago, and the place he had just walked past a few minutes ago now felt so strange, like he was visiting for the first time.

According to Kim Eungmin's instructions, he has now left the EXO group and is no longer an idol trainee. He has returned to being a trainee and Kim Eungmin specifically told him not to go to the EXO practice room to disturb others' practice, but should return to where he belongs.

The president's indifferent voice echoed in his ear, and he instinctively wanted to obey the command and walk back down to the trainee practice room. But for some reason, he couldn't take the first step down the stairs.

For his debut, he could diligently practice for several years; for his debut, he could endure the ruthless criticism and even corporal punishment from company teachers and dormitory managers; for his debut, he could immediately cut off close relationships with several female trainees, acting like a good boy for several months.

He felt he had already done enough.

Everything was gone. The beautiful future that had been so close at hand suddenly turned into darkness.

The more Wu Saike thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. The more he thought about it, the worse it tasted in his mouth. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.

Years of practice have made his sunk cost so high that it is unbearable.

Wu Saik looked around. The corridor walls were plastered with photos of ** company's previous idols who had already debuted. Although the angles of each photo's front face were different, he only felt that everyone in the photos was staring at him. Every pair of eyes held mockery and ridicule. He felt himself surrounded by mocking gazes.

'It is generally unlikely for a company to allow members who have already filmed an MV to leave the group at this time.'

“It must be someone sabotaging, it has to be……”

'He is the one who took my place. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be in this situation...'

It was him, because of him...

"It's because of him…"

Wu Saike the more he thought about it, the harder it became to bear. He transferred all his anger and hatred onto the person who was about to replace him.

As soon as he thought about being replaced, an indescribable feeling of anger and resentment filled his mind, overwhelming him completely. Wu Seike's head was pounding, and he had lost the ability to think, or perhaps he just didn't want to. All he wanted was to vent. At this point, he couldn't think about anything else; he walked straight towards EXO's practice room.

…………

With a tremendous noise, all the members in the practice room were startled and hurriedly looked toward the door.

The first thing that catches your eye is Wu Saik, whose face is completely distorted by anger.

He was furious, his blood surging, his entire face flushed red from the anger. His long fringe covered one side of his forehead, while the other side revealed exposed, tight blue veins. A fierce, bone-chilling hatred blazed in his eyes as he surveyed the 12 people in the practice room.

He quickly determined his goal, a complete stranger.

That person who was going to take his place, a smiling creep.

He wants to teach this person a lesson.

Wu Saik quickly walked towards Chi Jingyuan's direction, each step forceful, as if he wanted to stomp the entire practice room floor into pieces with his anger.

'It's because of this person…'

'Shit...'

He kept muttering these two phrases, repeating them over and over. His entire behavior had become completely illogical. At this point, he looked like a true zombie, charging towards his target while unconsciously shouting "eat meat, eat meat".

“Kris is back, we already know the company’s decision, calm down…………” Captain Kim Jun-myeon noticed Wu Sike's strangeness. He didn't dodge, but took the initiative to walk over to stop Wu Sike and ease his mood at the same time. In fact, he was quite sympathetic to Wu Sike in his heart.

However, before Kim Jun-myeon could finish his words, Wu Sicong pushed him aside with great force. He staggered several steps back before barely managing to steady himself against the wall.

At this time, Wu Saike had already walked to Chi Jingyuan's face.

As soon as Wu Saik stepped through the door, Ji Jingyuan realized who he was. He had known beforehand that he would be replacing someone on the team, and Jin Junmian's words confirmed it. He turned around, maintaining a smile, and looked at Wu Saik as he walked closer.

Meanwhile, Do Kyung-Soo and Woo Se-Hoon, who were standing closer by, were taken aback when they saw Kim Jun-Myeon almost being pushed over. After a moment of stunned silence, they quickly tried to rush up and stop Wu Saek.

It's obvious that Wu Saike is not in the right state of mind, he's definitely not here to have a proper conversation.

However, as Wu Saik approached Chi Jingyuan, he had already begun to wind up his punch. He didn't have any intention of speaking, and directly swung his right hand with all his might, fueled by extreme anger, landing a straight punch aimed at pulverizing the infuriating smile before him.

He had stopped considering the consequences; all he wanted was to teach this person a lesson.

Meanwhile, the other EXO members around exclaimed in surprise. Some wanted to step forward and stop it, some dodged out of the way, and others watched the commotion with glee on their faces.

For a moment, time in the practice room seemed to stand still. Every expression and movement of each person blended together into a vivid oil painting.

The next second, only to see Chi Jingyuan, who had been silent all along, nimbly flashed to the right and dodged Wu Saik's full-force straight punch.

Then Chi Jingyuan, taking advantage of Wu Saik's unsteady center of gravity, immediately grabbed the opponent's arms with both hands. At the same time, he pushed his shoulders forward, stepped forward with his right foot, and blocked Wu Saik's legs. Using the opponent's strength, he directly lifted Wu Saik onto his back and slammed him hard to the ground behind him, emitting a bone-chilling thud.

"Bang!"

Even the EXO members standing beside him could only watch and feel sympathy, their faces mirroring his pain.

A beautiful over-the-shoulder throw.

After Pool Jingyuan smashed Wu Saik onto the ground, he nonchalantly brushed off the dust on his collar with his hand. He maintained his dazzling smile and leaned down, looking at Wu Saik who was already dazed from being thrown around. He met the other's confused gaze with his crescent-shaped eyes for a moment, then chuckled softly and patted Wu Saik's right cheek with his right hand, saying:
