From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show-Novel

Chapter 466 Casper Just Died (Casper the Ghost)

?"I don't know a Jenny," June deadpanned, still pointing toward the exit to make her feel like she wasn't welcome in their dorm building.

"Fine, it's me, Garam—your older cousin. But I legally changed my name to Jenny since I look a lot like the popular girl group member," she boasted. "So, call me Jenny from now on."

June narrowed his eyes in suspicion.

Surely, it wasn't the Jenny he was thinking about, right?

She looked nothing like her!

"And I still don't know you," June repeated. "You may now leave before I call security."

"Gosh," Jenny said. "Since when have you been so uptight? I remember you being so meek when we were younger."

"Are you still angry that I wasn't able to attend your parents' funeral?" she asked, causing June to frown.

"You know my parents are shitty as hell. I wanted to go, but they wouldn't let me."

June let out a deep sigh. "What are you doing here?" he asked.

Jenny mischievously smiled. "Can't I visit my baby cousin without any reason? Maybe I just

missed you."

June looked at her with raised eyebrows. From her statements a while ago, it seemed like their families had a strained relationship.

There was no way she came here to greet him casually.

June did feel pretty relieved that the person who had been following him for the last couple of days was a relative instead of a stranger.

"Be honest," June said, crossing his arms in front of his chest.

Jenny kept up her front for a couple of moments. However, she soon crumbled afterward.

"There's really not much to it," she started off.

"I just wanted to say that I finally moved to Seoul."

June's eyes narrowed, wondering how this would concern him in any way.

"This is the first time I'm moving away from my parents, so it's a big step. They threw me curses and insults left and right before I left, but I'm over it now," she chuckled.

"Why are you telling me this?" June sighed.

Jenny pursed her lips before holding onto the camera around her neck and showing it to June.

"I finally reached my dream of being a photographer," she said. "Well, technically, I'm part of the paparazzi, but that's better than nothing, right?"

Jenny chuckled, fiddling with the camera in her hands.

"Honestly, I didn't actually plan on approaching you. I know it's been such a long time since we talked, so it would be strange if I approached you out of the blue."

"But then, I had the opportunity to attend your press conference, and I was reminded of how you dreamed of being an idol at a young age. Our relatives didn't believe in you...and at one point, I started thinking your dream was ridiculous too," she sadly smiled.

"You worked so hard. You lost so much, and everyone but your parents really thought you wouldn't be able to make it. Yet here you are, shining like the brightest star. You were the center of attention in the press conference a while ago," she complimented while June listened intently.

"Your dream had always been unconventional, yet somehow you were able to reach it. As I watched you on Rising Stars, I was reminded of my unconventional dream, too. In the end, I started pursuing it again for the sake of my own happiness."

"And now, I'm here," she smiled brightly. "I guess I just wanted to thank you for reviving my dream."

"Oh, and I also want to congratulate you for doing so well," she quickly added. "Everyone's gushing about you! My coworkers didn't even believe me when I said we were cousins."

June glanced at his watch and nodded.

"Are you done now?" he asked.

Jenny clicked her tongue and shook her head.

"Dang, I was being emotional for nothing. You really changed a lot...That's a good thing, though," she said. "You were always too kind for your own good."

"I listened to your statements really well," June said. "Now, go. We don't want others seeing you here." The source of this content ɪs novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

"Geez. No need to rush. Let's take a photo together first so I can show it to my coworkers," she said, turning on his camera.

However, June shook his head, not wanting his photo to be taken.

Jenny clicked her tongue and brought her camera up, snapping a quick photo of the blonde idol.

June's eyes widened as she looked at the photo she had taken.

"You got really handsome," she muttered.

"Well, your parents had always been the most good-looking couple out of everyone in our family. Maybe that's part of the reason why our relatives were so harsh to them," she continued.

"But then again, I felt like your parents leaving the family was for the better. That tree is filled with the most racist, colorist, body-shaming, and overall discriminatory people on earth. If I wanted my self-esteem obliterated, I would just join a family dinner once," she ranted.

"Your transformation is still amazing, though," Jenny said, still observing June's photo. "You're practically poreless! And your nose had gotten taller, too," she said, getting on her tiptoes to visualize his nose better.

"Did you get plastic surgery? You better hit me up with your surgeon since it looks so natural," she chimed.

June sighed and held onto his nose before moving it back and forth. "I didn't get it done," he grumbled.

Jenny raised both eyebrows in surprise. Then, before June could react, she reached out her arm and held onto his nose, giving it a good squeeze.

June's eyes widened, and she tried to push her away. However, he quickly froze when he saw his members standing at the end of the hallway, looking at the two with wide eyes.

From their view, it appeared like the two of them were standing really close to one another.

Jenny had his hands on June's face while June had both hands on her shoulders, attempting to push her away.

However, it didn't appear like that to his members.

"It's not what it looks like," June tried to explain, but the members were already making their own speculations.

"J—June's dating someone?" Jisung stammered, not believing his eyes.

"I can't believe this," Jaeyong whispered under his breath, feeling somewhat betrayed.

Meanwhile, Casper stared into oblivion, looking the most out of it.

Then, his eyes rolled to the back of his head, and his body went limp.

A loud thud resounded in the hallways, and they turned to the collapsed member on the floor.

"I think Casper just died."
