Chapter 1401


    Hannah knew Ian wouldn’t care about any of the hurdles people threw at him, but she was more worried that Cindy might not be able to cope


    with the situation as well. Smiling, Cindy gave her some reassurance. “I know what to do, so you don’t need to worry about me.”


    Heaving a sigh, Hannah went on to say, “Famees with its fair share of troubles. You can just assume that people are targeting us because


    of envy.”


    Cindy grunted in response before saying, “I know.”


    As Hannah was busy, the call didn’tst long. After the call ended, Cindy didn’t return to the dressing room. Instead, she opened the window


    beside her to air the ce out. A few crew members passed by while chatting amicably, and for some reason, Cindy found herself feeling


    rather envious.

    To be honest, she might be able to get by if she found herself a normal office job, but she was in urgent need of money, and there weren’t a lot


    of well-paid jobs avable to a fresh grad. She didn’t have much time to undergo an internship, as she had two people whom she needed to


    take care of. Although her work as an assistant was tiring, she was paid a handsome amount of money, or else she wouldn’t know what to do


    with her life.


    Leaning against the window, she heaved a sigh. Just hang in there… Things might get better in a few years, she thought to herself. Upon


    checking the time, she returned to the dressing room to see that Ian was already there. She helped Ian pack up the makeup kit and outfits, then


    they left after greeting the other celebrities.


    As soon as they left the ce, Cindy asked in a hushed voice, “Did the shooting go smoothly?”


    Slightly taken aback, Ian turned to nce at her. “What could go wrong?”


    Cindy was never one to babble, but she couldn’t help but nag considering their circumstances. “I’m afraid that they might try to do something


    to hinder you.”


    Ian could hardly contain hisugh. “It will be great if they are as simple as you perceive them to be.


    ” People in the entertainment industry could be extremely deceitful. Not only would they not act out in front of Ian, but they might even


    pretend to be his friends while wishing him ill, which was something that nobody would know even if it were true. When both of them got


    into the car, the driver turned to look at Ian before asking, “Did you watch the news? Someone is trying to find out who Ian’s girlfriend is.”


    Cindy was startled as she missed out on it, and so was Ian. A momentter, she looked behind her at Ian before suggesting, “Why don’t you


    have your girlfriend show up for you by posting a statement as support? By doing this, we can also get the ball into our court.” My


    girlfriend? Ian almost failed to stifle augh. He never had one to begin with, as his love was unrequited. Besides, she was now married to


    someone else and had a child of her own, so they would only ever be friends. Looking at Ian from the rearview mirror, the driver seconded


    Cindy’s suggestion. “Her showing herself will give her a favorable impression among the fans. If she is going to remain silent, theizens


    might end up doing something even worse to her.” Ian knew full well the power theizens wielded, so they might very well uncover


    Sophia’s identity. Although there was nothing ambiguous about their rtionship, she was also his sole female friend, so theizens would


    end up targeting her nheless. While Ian never cared about the lies fabricated by theizens, say less of their usations and insults, the


    mention of his girlfriend being implicated had his expression darkened. Cindy saw as clear as day the major shift in his countenance, which


    startled her. Initially, she wanted to know if his girlfriend would have a hard time showing up for him, but she decided against it as she never


    liked prying into other people’s business. The driver didn’t notice the shift in Ian’s countenance as he went on to say, “You have to know how


    frightening certain possessive fans can get. When the scandal broke out, their hatred toward Sena went off the charts. Since your girlfriend


    didn’t stand up for you, they were also assuming that she yed a part in perpetrating the scandal, so you shouldn’t expect them to stand up


    for your girlfriend. In fact, they might very well vent the anger they umted since the incident with Sena onto your girlfriend.”
