Chapter 1431


    The elderly man was ecstatic, insisting that they could sign the lease anytime.


    Ian hesitated for a moment. Both he and Cindy could no longer stand the house with a single room and


    a living room, so he blurted, “If possible, I prefer signing the contract today and moving in tomorrow.”


    Eager to have them confirm the lease, the elderly man instantly said sure, repeating it thrice to portray


    his sincerity. Thus, Ian and the elderly man handled the signing of the contract.


    Cindy, on the other hand, took another round in the house and briefly studied theyout. When she was


    done, she could almost picture living here now.


    By noon, Ian and the elderly man had already signed the contract. In the afternoon, Ian went to record


    a rtively short show, so they arrived home in the evening. Cindy packed everything. Since the


    movers would being early the next morning, many things had to be sorted out on this day. For that


    reason, they ordered takeaway for dinner. After eating, they spent the rest of the time packing up.


    When everything was done, Cindy then cleaned the house. As this house was assigned to Ian by the


    Ian initially wanted to help, but Cindy found him more of a trouble than help, so she waved a dismissive


    hand. “It’s okay. I can manage by myself. You go and sit there. Don’t wander around.”


    Very much obedient, Ian went to the sofa and sat down cross-legged. Then, he turned on the


    television. Washed fruits were on the coffee table, so he snagged an apple and bit into it. Then, he


    looked at the item in his hand before shifting his gaze to the fruit tter on the coffee table. She’s really


    taking good care of me.


    After mopping the floor, Cindy became sweaty, and it had her feeling ill at ease. She wavered slightly


    by the sofa, but in the end, she took a change of clothes and furtively went into the washroom.


    The moment the sound of running water started in the washroom, Ian jumped up from the sofa in


    surprise. He knew that Cindy had gone to take a shower. The washroom had a frosted ss door with


    faint light showing through. If one were to look closely, one could even make out the person’s


    silhouette. He didn’t dare to look in that direction at all, the tips of his ears burning hotly. Swiftly turning


    off the television, he spun around and went back to his room.


    Even after he’d closed the door, his heart was still pounding wildly. Although he didn’t see anything, he


    felt as though he’d seen everything. He paced for a bit in his room, knowing that he’d overreacted. It

    was a long while before he finally calmed down. Then, he went over to the door and listened for


    movement outside. A few minutester, Cindy came out of the washroom and was seemingly packing


    her things since rustling sounds came from outside. Inhaling deeply several times, Ian went back to his


    bed, feeling inexplicably agitated. He pped himself on the forehead, thinking, Everything will be fine


    tomorrow. When we’ve both moved into the new house, such an awkward situation can be totally


    avoided.


    He waited for a good while before opening his door and going out, so Cindy was already lying down.


    Every time shey down, she curled into a tiny ball. Her nket was very fluffy as well, so he mostly


    had to strain to see her since she was almost invisible after burrowing into the nket considering her


    naturally slim and petite build. After that, he went for a shower as well and finished in record time


    before hurrying back to his room.


    When his room door was closed, Cindy opened her eyes and let out an exasperated sigh. Her thoughts


    were simr to Ian’s. When we’ve moved tomorrow, all the awkward situations will be a thing of the


    past.


    That night, both of them were upied with their own thoughts. The next day, the movers came early


    in the morning. Cindy woke up even earlier, sorting out everything that was to be transported. Since Ian


    hadn’t been living here for long, there weren’t many things. Thus, the movers managed to take


    everything in a single trip.


    Ian and Cindy had also packed, so they followed the movers in another car. Since there weren’t many


    things, the entire process didn’t take long. When everything was settled, Cindy even had time to make


    breakfast in the new house. Ah, it’s truly nice not to be under the paparazzis’ watchful gaze! Or else I


    can’t even imagine the crowd that would’ve been tailing us to snap photos as we moved houses this


    time.
