Chapter 1430


    It wasn’t all that tiring today, but Cindy was still quite happy that she got to go to bed early for a change.


    She was already used to sleeping on the sofa, so she groggily fell into slumber in no time. However,


    she heard a noise in the middle of the night, jolting her awake. She didn’t move, merely opening her


    eyes and looking in the direction of the light.


    It was Ian going to the washroom. Every single time this happened, she found it extremely awkward


    because the washroom had truly bad soundproofing, so she could hear the slightest noise loud and


    clear. She then quickly closed her eyes and continued feigning sleep.


    Meanwhile, Ian had also tried his best to make as little noise as possible. After flushing the toilet, he


    washed his hands before turning off the lights anding out. Upon seeing that Cindy was still in the


    same position on the sofa, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurried back to his room.


    When he’d gone back in and closed the door, Cindy who was outside breathed a sigh of relief as well.


    For some inexplicable reason, her face was slightly flushed. Such days are truly torturous! Perhaps it

    was because of the incident that her sleep was disrupted for the rest of the night, for she kept jolting


    awake and ncing at Ian’s room. For some reason, she just felt uneasy.


    Finally, the gossip on Ian and Cindy slowly subsided. After all, things like gossip couldn’t receive


    endless attention, else it’d turn stale. When it was almost time, it was always necessary to turn down


    the heat. Despite the diminished poprity and attention, both Ian and Cindy breathed easier. After all,


    it wasn’t pleasant to be tailed by the paparazzi, and both of them were simr in that they wanted a life


    with more freedom.


    Having lived under the same roof for half a month, both of them had somewhat gotten used to the


    other. The only thing that had them feeling difited was the house. There was only one room in the


    house, and while Cindy had no problems sleeping on the sofa, it was indeed inconvenient. Besides, the


    slightest movement in the washroom was clearly audible to the person outside. Ian was better off since


    he could hide away in his room, but Cindy had nowhere to go. When Ian was in the washroom, she


    could only endure it outside.


    Ian was aware of this issue, so he made some time for a house viewing with Cindy to resolve this


    problem that was embarrassing yet difficult to speak of. The house they looked at had two rooms and


    was slightly bigger. Otherwise, it was not much different. He was very respectful of Cindy’s opinion,


    asking her whether she had any dissatisfaction toward the environment or décor.


    Cindy wasn’t a fastidious person in nature. After taking a look around, she realized that the two rooms


    had simr lightning and could be considered a double master bedroom. He’s probably showing me


    consideration. She then nodded. “I’m fine with this.”


    The house owner was an elderly couple who were up in years. They probably didn’t pay attention to the


    news usually, for they didn’t recognize Ian at all. Rather, they regarded Ian and Cindy as a young


    couple who were looking for a ce. Chuckling, the elderly man remarked, “This house of ours is both


    fruitful and prosperous. After living in our house for a little over a year, the few tenants before this


    enjoyed smooth sailing in their jobs, securing promotions and sry increments before purchasing a


    house themselves. Some couples also conceived after living here for a few months. Thus, this house


    has good juju.”


    Cindy merely smiled politely without saying anything. Ian didn’t exin much either since their


    rtionship now was indeed that of a couple.


    As Cindy and Ian both looked decent, the elderly couple had no qualms renting the house to them,


    even saying that the rent could be lowered slightly if they were going to rent it long-term. The elderly


    man was very frank, outright admitting, “I don’t want to find another tenant just after a year. That’s too


    troublesome, so I’d prefer tenants who’ll be renting long-term.”


    Ian turned to look at Cindy, indicating that the decision was in her hands. Looking around, Cindy then


    recalled the house in which they were living now. This was a much better improvement, so she nodded.


    “Not bad.” By saying this, it meant that she liked this ce better. Right then and there, Ian talked to


    the elderly man about signing the lease.
