    Chapter 1516 Public Disy of Affection


    Cindy furrowed her brows slightly and she shifted to the side ufortably to avoid him, but she


    continued to say, “There’s no need for all that between us. She doesn’t care for all these pretenses.”


    Suddenly, Ianughed and sat up as he leaned against the back of the chair. Then, he replied in a faint


    voice, “Well, I care about it, alright?”


    At that moment, Naomi lifted her head to look at the two of them. She had noticed them inching closer


    to whisper to each other earlier, so she started to tease, “I guess you haven''t had enough of the public


    disy of affection while we were in that game, which is why you’re doing it in front of me again. Could


    you please spare a thought for this singledy here and show some concern for my delicate mind?”


    Meanwhile, Cindy raised her voice to hide her fluster. “Hurry up and order our meal. Stop dilly-dallying.


    If you keep this up, I won’t let you choose the dishes!”


    Just then, Naomi grunted lightly and lowered her head to browse through the menu. Truth was, she


    was in a tight spot and didn’t know what to order because everything on the menu was just too pricey.


    They had just graduated not long ago and weren''t earning a fortune, so they tended to spend within


    their means. Her first reaction upon seeing such a posh menu was to jump in fright. Although Cindy


    was in a rtionship with someone loaded like Ian, Naomi had no intention to take advantage of the


    situation. I must not take advantage of Cindy’s boyfriend even if he’s loaded. If I do that, surely he


    would be unhappy with Cindy. In the end, Naomi flicked through the menu and chose two


    At the same time, Aurora held a menu in her hands too, but she was much more rxed about it than

    Naomi so she went ahead and ordered two dishes before handing over the menu to Cindy. “Cindy, take


    a look and choose what you’d like to have.”


    Cindy epted the menu from Aurora and flipped through it. The first thing that she noticed was the


    price range and her heart turned cold at the sight of it. However, she steeled herself and ordered two


    more dishes.


    Just then, Ian inched closer to her and shared her menu. Subsequently, he ordered two more dishes, a


    soup, and two desserts, signaling the end of the order for their table.


    Soon after that, the waiter left the room with their order and Cindy took several deep breaths as she


    realized that she was starving. She also realized that they should be able to clear off all of the dishes


    today so instantly, she felt much better about the situation. After all, it was quite important for one to be


    able to providefort for themselves at the right time bying up with excuses to bring peace to


    themselves.


    As they waited for the dishes to be served, Ian asked Cindy about the incident with the two fans who


    had tried to find fault with her. In reality, she didn’t think that they had seeded in causing trouble.


    After all, they were quite young and spoke immaturely. She concluded that her retort had managed to


    render them fuming mad so she was quite pleased about that.


    Just then, Ian lifted the teapot next to him and poured some water into a cup for Cindy. At the same


    time, he said, “I’ve spoken to Hannah about this and thepany will release a statement. Although


    it’s not a big deal, I need to show my stance and steer public opinion. Don’t worry. I won’t let you


    suffer.”


    Meanwhile, Naomi sat by the side and shot a look at Cindy with a smirk. The former clearly had a


    teasing look on her face. She waited for Ian to finish his sentence before saying, “See, I told you that


    he would definitely stand up for you! Once the statement is released, the two girls will realize that


    they’ve stepped on their own toes.” I don’t even know where they got the courage from toe forward


    and stand up on behalf of Ian to attack his girlfriend! Funnily enough, they’ve really overestimated


    themselves!


    Aurora chimed in, “You don’t have to take this to heart. It’s normal to encounter this in the


    entertainment industry, so just keep an open mind about it.”


    Cindy and Ian exchanged looks and nodded in response. “Sure. I won’t take it to heart.”


    They continued to chat with each other for a short while before finally getting their meal served by the


    waiter.


    Cindy’s cell phone chose that moment to vibrate so she quickly took it out to have a look, only to see


    that there were two unread messages. Just then, Ian noticed her actions too. They were sitting quite


    close to each other so by shifting his gaze slightly, he could see the disy on the screen of her phone.


    Cindy then clicked into the messages and saw that both of them were from Gary.
