    Chapter 1933 A Normal Couple


    Eventually, they came to an area with all sorts of outdoor food stalls. Despite the zing sun, many of


    the stalls ran their business as usual. Ian didn’t need to walk over to be able to smell the mouth-


    watering scent. He halted his footsteps as he took a deep breath. “This smells really good.”


    Cindy smiled. Her hometown was known for its street food, and it was pretty famous even in other


    townships. Although the couple had just finished their meal, Cindy found herself tempted by the


    delicious scents that filled the air. “Let’s try them out,” she said as she dragged him over to the stalls.


    Meanwhile, Hazel and the neighbors were still sitting around in her house. The neighbors were


    busybodies who didn’t know their limits. “I can’t believe she found a boyfriend so soon. Previously, I


    recall that your daughter rejected others when they tried to introduce her to someone. I thought she


    didn’t want to focus on her love life since she had just graduated. Yet, she brought him home!” one


    neighbor stated.


    “She wasn’t interested in dating previously, but this guy continued sticking around and treating her well.


    It’s hard for Cindy to live out there on her own, so I’m sure she also fell for him because of how much


    he cares for her,” Hazel replied hastily.


    “Is he nning to stay here? What about his own family? You need to be clear about his background—


    you don’t want to walk into a trap blindly.” Another neighbor reminded Hazel.


    “He seems toe from a pretty rich family, and he looks like he’s doing well. Of course, I don’t know if


    he’s just putting on a show. I’ll have to get Cindy to follow up on this matter,” Hazel replied.


    “I guess it’s fine as long as he’s rich. Money rules the world nowadays; your life would be ten times


    easier if you married a rich person,” someone else added.


    Hazel nodded. “That’s right. It is an important factor to be considered. Anyway, I’m sure Ian was being


    honest when he told me about his background.” The few neighbors continued gossiping about Ian and


    Cindy. Cindy was at the ideal age for marriage, so some of the neighbors urged Hazel to support the


    marriage if the man was from a wealthy family. If Cindy got married and gave birth to a child, both


    Cindy and Hazel would be set for the rest of their lives. They would no longer have to struggle to


    support Keith.


    Hazel had considered all these factors, so she merely responded with a thoughtful nod. “Yeah. That’s


    what I thought too, but he has just arrived, and I haven’t gotten a chance to observe him properly. I


    need more time.”


    While the neighbors’ discussion went on, Cindy and Ian circled the food stalls and bought everything


    that caught their eye. Ian didn’t have to conceal his identity as there weren’t many who recognized him.


    The stall owners treated him like a regr individual, and they didn’t even look twice at him. Ian loved


    living a life like this, where he didn’t feel watched whenever he was out in public. He was free to do


    whatever he wanted to.

    Even Cindy felt oddly rxed today. She felt like she and Ian were just another normal couple who


    could hold hands as they walked on the streets. Cindy left a food stain on the corner of her lips, and Ian


    couldn’t help but nt a kiss on her lips after he wiped the stain off. Cindy didn’t feel any fear despite


    being in public—she merely exchanged nces with Ian before smiling. The people who walked past


    them didn’t realize anything at all. That was when Cindy understood the reason Ian liked living in the


    vige.


    Both of them strolled around for a long while before they finally went home. Their neighbors were gone


    by then, and Hazel had stayed home to clean the ce up instead of going out to y poker. The


    moment Cindy and Ian entered the house, Hazel turned to look at them. “Have you guys eaten? You


    guys were out for a really long time.”


    Cindy sat down on the couch. “We ate out, but we bought you some food,” she uttered as she ced


    Hazel’s lunch on the coffee table. Hazel lowered the cleaning tools in her hands before she sat down


    beside Cindy. “How many days will you guys be staying?”


    Ian had a total of three days to spare, but they couldn’t spend their entire time there, could they? They


    had to return home to prepare for his shooting.
