12: A fool who does whatever he wants when he's unhappy

"I said 'professional.' Do high school students have a profession?"

"Then isn't it a pity that you gave up college to become a trainee? I had no time to study, so I had to give it up. Why did you give up when you clearly got accepted?"

"Who said I gave up? I applied for an extracurricular internship, and I happened to be noticed by a YG scout, so I came."

With such looks and figure, it was no surprise that she was scouted. As for the 'extracurricular internship,' none of them had gone to college, so they weren't clear about it.

They chatted until they reached the practice room and found quite a few trainees from the debut group.

"Oh wow! These people don't like me! When the fight starts, you guys stay far away. Don't let the blood splatter on you."

The four of them truly thought she had a screw loose after hearing that. They just gave her a few provocative glances; was it really necessary to get physical?

"At most, they'll challenge your skill. This is a practice room, not a martial arts hall, okay?"

"Park Chaeyoung, put away that disgusted look. I'm very strong."

She was the last one in their small group of four to join YG. The other three took good care of her, so when Xu Zhiyou arrived, she also wanted to take care of her. This might be what's called a legacy.

"Stop talking, the teacher is coming soon."

Seeing Park Chaeyoung so serious, she obediently shut her mouth. Her idea of debuting with Yang Hyun-suk suddenly felt a bit disillusioned.

She felt that the four of them were quite nice to her. She had never made friends her entire life, which was a bit sad. Maybe she should try interacting with them for a while longer.

If their personalities clicked, then why not make a few friends first? The road to becoming a superstar is long, and you need a few friends to share the joy, don't you?

The first thing the dance teacher did upon entering was to scan Xu Zhiyou. "You're the one who parachuted in."

Xu Zhiyou had only one thought: 'Damn it, I didn't offend you, did I?' That look made her very uncomfortable!

She felt that the dance teacher was deliberately targeting her; she clearly saw that sarcastic smirk.

Park Chaeyoung poked her, seeing her lost in thought. She was also curious; the teacher always left after class and never cared about their performance. So many trainees came and went; who knew who would be eliminated next? Could it be that she was using this as an opportunity to mess with Xu Zhiyou?

"Yes! I'm the one who parachuted in. Is there a problem?"

"Introduce yourself!"

"Zoe..."

"Don't you know how to use honorifics?"

She was interrupted after just saying her name. Xu Zhiyou was on the verge of exploding. 'I'll endure!'

Even a fool could see that this teacher was deliberately targeting her. Kim Jennie and Kim Ji-soo exchanged glances, feeling a bit confused. Xu Zhiyou had been with them all yesterday; she hadn't offended anyone!

Even if she skipped class, it wasn't the teacher's place to say anything! They had a dedicated trainee manager for artists.

"Get out!"

She couldn't tolerate this. She hadn't done anything, and as soon as she came in, she was told to get out. Did this lousy YG really think she cared? In this world, besides her parents and sister, no one had the right to give her a hard time.

"What if I don't? If you have the ability, fire me. If you don't, shut your stinking mouth."

Everyone was shocked by her boldness. 'You're really pushing your luck.'

"Shit!"

"Holy crap! I'll beat your mother, how dare you curse at me?" She went straight for a big slap. Her dad said not to cause trouble, but also not to be afraid of it. If anyone dared to bully her, she'd hit them back.

Kim Ji-soo and Kim Jennie exchanged glances and quickly went to pull Xu Zhiyou away.

"You two let go of me! I've never been cursed at in my life. Who does she think she is? I'm going to tear her mouth apart."

Afraid of hurting them, they didn't dare use much force.

"Calm down, you can't hit her!" Kim Ji-soo held her tightly and wouldn't let go, and Kim Jennie also hung onto her.

The scene was unusually quiet. The dance teacher was used to being high and mighty and hadn't expected Xu Zhiyou to actually dare to hit her.

"You two let go. I promise I won't hit her after I'm done with her. I'll just go to JYP. It's fine."

It just so happened that Yang Hyun-suk, who had just entered, overheard this. Their contract would only take effect after Xu Zhiyou debuted. Before that, Xu Zhiyou had the right to choose whether to stay or leave.

Yang Hyun-suk was no longer calm. If he really let her go to JYP, he'd regret it bitterly. He had thoroughly investigated Xu Zhiyou's information from last night until now.

She was a true prodigy. The songs she wrote in school over the past two years could all be found. Universal Music had even tried to sign her. It would be a ghost if he let such a person get away.

Park Chaeyoung looked at the exploding Xu Zhiyou and felt so unfamiliar. She had been tugging her around just that morning. Would she even hit her?

"Let go, I promise I won't hit her."

"Really?"

"Really, really."

The two of them let go after hearing that.

"Why are you targeting me?"

"As a teacher, what's wrong with educating you? You..."

"Idiot! Don't think you're hot stuff just because people call you 'teacher.' Do you want to compete? Composing, instruments, dancing, you can choose whatever you want. Do you dare?"

Everyone present looked at each other. Wasn't this a bit too arrogant? Kim Jennie and the other three also covered their faces.

They thought, 'Sister, isn't dancing not just about being able to fight?' Besides, which teacher at YG isn't genuinely talented?

"Then we'll compete in dancing. If you lose, you have to kowtow and apologize to me."

"Am I afraid of you? If you lose, you have to crawl around the company like a dog three times and loudly say that you're a dog and not a human."

"You... crude!" Although the dance teacher didn't think she would lose, wasn't this an insult to her?

"Yes or no, don't talk nonsense! I'm just asking if you dare?"

"Okay, whoever doesn't dare is a grandson."

They were bickering in front and didn't notice Yang Hyun-suk come in. "What's going on?"

"President Nim, this student, she..."

"You shut up! As soon as you came in, you were sarcastic to me, then you told me to get out, and what made me most angry was that you even cursed at me."

"Is that what happened?"

The dance teacher stammered, and the trainees all lowered their heads. Their status was humble; who would dare to answer? Teachers also had their own groups.

After all, no one was as reckless as Xu Zhiyou, who feared nothing.

"What? You dare to do it but not admit it? Is that what happened?"

"Yes!" The dance teacher still replied unwillingly.

"I won't ask you why you targeted her. As long as you can beat her, this matter will be dropped. Otherwise, you know the consequences."

"Yes!" She didn't take this to heart, believing that between a trainee and a dance teacher, the company would make the right choice.

"Hmph! Bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Why aren't you so arrogant now?"

"You..."

"Do you want to go first or should I? I'll give you a chance to go first. I'm afraid that if I start, you'll pretend to be sick with all sorts of backaches and leg pains."

Everyone present except Yang Hyun-suk thought she was so arrogant. She was only eighteen, and the dance teacher was over thirty. Even if she had started practicing from birth, she might not win.

Kim Ji-soo and the others suddenly remembered that when she first arrived, her sister called her a reckless idiot. She really was a reckless idiot.

"If I go first, I go first. Hmph~"
