Chapter 1431


The elderly man was ecstatic, insisting that they could sign the lease anytime.
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 the layout. 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 relatively short show, so they arrived home in the evening. Cindy packed everything. Since the movers would be coming 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 company, it’d be returned to the company upon moving out, so she naturally had to clean the place.

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 platter 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 glass 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.
