Chapter 1672


    Chapter 1672 Is He Your Friend?


    When Aurora returned to her room, she shut the door and stood still for a moment before she burst into


    through. It’s tough for one to be honest and open about their love for another person. Ian’s always


    suppressing and hiding his love. I wonder what’s keeping him from being more expressive, Aurora


    thought.


    Aurora’s predictions were right—Ian had indeed headed out to stroll around the neighborhood. He


    deliberately nned the paths he took so that he wouldn’t walk past the fitness park where Cindy was.


    As the sky darkened, more of the residents began to step out of their houses. However, most of them


    were headed to the park for a workout or a chat with friends, while Ian was just walking around


    aimlessly. The streets Ian walked past were, therefore, rtively quiet.


    After strolling for a while more, Ian stopped under a tree to catch his breath. When he looked up and


    gazed in the direction of the fitness park, he felt the sudden urge to lose his temper. Right then, an old


    couple walked past him. They were chatting andughing as they walked toward the park.


    Ian clenched his jaw as he finally came to a decision. He had been going through an internal conflict for


    the whole day, but seeing the old couple had caused something within him to shift. After he made up


    his mind, he walked to the park.


    The park was full of people—Ian could already hear the sound ofughter before he was even close to


    the park. Kids were running around, middle-aged men were doing their workouts, and some older

    women were gathering around for a Zumba dance ss. Most of the young adults gathered in one


    corner of the park, and it didn’t take long for Ian to spot Cindy among them. Beside Cindy was the guy


    that Ian had disliked from the very first sight—Peter.


    As Ian continued to look around the park, his gazended on the youngdy who had offered Peter a


    drink earlier. The youngdy had a drink in her hand and she was ring in Peter and Cindy’s


    direction. Although Ian was still some distance away from the youngdy, he didn’t have to see her


    expression to understand the resentment that she felt.


    On the contrary, Cindy and Peter looked like they were enjoying their time together. Cindy had never


    been one to smile a lot, but Ian caught herughing heartily as she spoke to Peter.


    Ian could tell that she wasughing out of genuine happiness. Peter looked just as happy beside her,


    and he even patted Cindy on her shoulder at one point. Ian curled his lips into a cold smirk as he strode


    over to them.


    Cindy hadn’t expected Ian to show up at the park. She had been listening to Peter’s funny stories about


    the club, and her cheeks were sore fromughing at all the hrious incidents. After spending some


    time with Peter, she was starting to rx a little. However, right when she was in the midst ofughing,


    she heard a familiar voice from behind her. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were going out?”


    She froze and spun around to find Ian walking toward her. He didn’t seem like he was in a good mood,


    but he didn’t look like he was furious either. There was a hint of iciness in his gaze, but he didn’t look


    words. “Why didn’t you tell me that you were going out? My mom was asking about you. Are you


    having dinner at home?”


    Peter froze and stared at Ian for a while. The smile on Peter’s face gradually faded.


    “Ah…” Cindy mumbled in a rather t tone. She wasn’t trying to sound cold, but her tone sounded


    rather serious because of the embarrassment she felt when she saw Ian. “You guys didn’t tell me when


    you left the house either,” shemented.


    Ian scoffed. “We thought you were asleep. We couldn’t wake you up just to tell you about it, right?”


    Cindy pressed her lips together and remained silent after that. “Is this your friend?” Peter asked with a


    rather uneasy look on his face.


    Ian had been wearing a cap, and he pressed it down to cover his face after he heard what Peter said.


    He wasn’t sure if a gym-goer like Peter would recognize him, but he didn’t want to take any chances.


    “Yeah,” Cindy muttered after giving Peter’s question some thought. She didn’t offer any more details.


    When they were outside, she and Ian no longer had to put on a show.
