Chapter 1524


    Chapter 1524 Envy


    Cindy, who was beside Naomi, frowned at what Naomi said because it made her feel awkward, let


    alone Ian.


    Hence, Cindy piped up, “Shut up. What makes you think that everyone else is as crafty as you?”


    Ian didn’t switch on his mic, but for some reason, he felt his face was on fire while he coughed twice. It


    felt like all of his secret actions had been exposed, which didn’t exactly feel nice.

    Naomi countered, “Why are you so protective over him? I didn’t imply anything. I was just trying to say


    that he might have found the time that you two spent together earlier too short. What do you think I


    meant? Why are you being so sensitive?”


    It was through a new match that Cindy started in her attempt to drop the topic. “Alright, then. Shut up


    and start the game. Don’t be a drag on the game.”


    While on the side, Naomi reluctantlymented, “Now that you have your boyfriend to help you to win


    the game, are you looking down on an amatuer like me? When you didn’t have him to help you, you


    and I used to be partners who tried our best to win together.”


    Upon hearing that, Cindy fell silent. Naomi was loquacious today as she was a little excited. She would


    never stop running her mouth if Cindy continued to talk to her.


    Hence, when Cindy stopped responding, she soon became quiet.


    The three of them yed a match and naturally won the game. After she logged off from the game,


    Cindy said to Ian, “You have a film shoot in the morning, right? So, don’t stay up toote tonight.”


    Ian, who still kept his mic off, replied with a message that he would head to bed after another match.


    Then, the three of them soundlessly yed another match wherein he logged off without saying


    goodbye once it ended.


    After that, Cindy put down her phone before she stood up to stretch her arms. “Let’s stop ying. Why


    don’t we wash up?”


    As shey on the bed, Naomi followed suit and deliberately made some noise to attract Cindy’s


    attention before she teased, “Someone lost the mood to y when her boyfriend logged off. Sigh, it


    sure feels good to be in love. It’s so sweet and enviable.”


    Cindy looked behind at Naomi. “You are rather talkative today. What happened? Has something


    triggered you?”


    Naomi nodded with a serious look. “To be honest, I was indeed triggered. During my schooling days, I


    have never been envious of my roommate when they were in rtionships. When I saw your


    interaction with Ian today, though, I was really envious of you, for real.”


    Cindyughed as she thought that she didn’t interact much with Ian. In fact, the only time was when he


    grabbed her hand and it happened involuntarily, so she doubted that their brief interaction would have


    made Naomi ufortable until now.


    “Ian’s gaze was incredibly soft when he looked at you today. I’ve watched his show before and I found


    him to be a gentleman that time, but it was nowhere as tender as how he looked at you today,” Naomi


    exined as her hand cradled her face.


    The corner of Cindy’s lips twitched as she suspected that Naomi might have vision issues. Was Ian


    gentle toward me today? Why didn’t I know about it?


    Naomi continued to exim, “Also, Ian’s mother treats you so well. I used to warn you to be a little


    more mindful and be careful in case he cheats on you. However, after watching your interaction with


    him today, I understand that I have been overthinking it. You two will definitely make it till the end.


    Cindy, I envy you so much. When the timees, you have to introduce me to those handsome men


    whom you know in the entertainment industry.”


    Cindy chuckled but went along with it. “Sure, sure. I’ll introduce you to those handsome men whom Ian


    knows by then and you can pick whoever you like.”


    With that, she turned on her heels and walked toward the bathroom.


    As she was walking, she thought, I wonder what kind of interaction I had with Ian today that triggered


    Naomi to this extent.


    After Cindy locked the bathroom door, she removed her clothes and stood under the shower head. Her


    head was filled with questions the whole time it took for her to shower.


    Yet, she still didn’t have the answer even after her shower and exited the bathroom. She really thought


    that her interaction with Ian today had been minimal and devoid of any sweet moments.


    Then, Naomi went into the bathroom to shower while Cindy went to her bed. When Cindy picked up her


    phone, she saw Ian’s message.
