Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1501


Ian headed toward the stall where Cindy and Naomi bought something.

As he approached, he realized that the stall sold fragrance lamps bedecked with bells and whistles of all sorts that women liked.

Quickly, he looked away.

It was unlikely that Cindy was the one who wanted to come to this stall since by his understanding of her, she didn’t like superficially pretty things like this.

However, before he could look away, Aurora noticed where he was looking and asked with some surprise, “Do you need those? You’d better buy more expensive ones since you’d be breathing them in. What’s the matter? Are you not sleeping well?”

Waving his hand, he answered, “No, no. I just think they’re extravagant.”

At his answer, she laughed. “Well, that’s what young women like. Does Cindy not like stuff like that?”

Earnestly, Ian thought about it for a moment. In truth, it seemed Cindy genuinely didn’t have such ornamental things.

Her life was simple—perhaps it could even be described as monotonous.


She never sought out such superficial things.

Once, when her bedroom door was open, he had taken a peek.

What he found was that her bedside table top was empty, her blanket was neatly folded, and her room was devoid of almost anything ornamental.

If it weren’t for the color of her bedsheets, he might even have believed that it was a man’s room.

So, he answered seriously, “She doesn’t like things like these. She lives her life very simply.”

“Simple is good,” Aurora reassured him with a smile. “It’s not easy to meet a simple girl in today’s society.”

Raising his eyebrows, Ian turned to look at her. “Are you complimenting her?”

“I’m only speaking the truth, whether it’s complimentary or not,” she answered, walking forward slowly. “She’s quite a sensible and likable girl, after all.” And then, the topic turned on a dime. “But sensible girls like these rarely come from good families. Those who have good home lives are rarely so cautious.”

That was a fact Ian was aware of as well.

For example, whenever Cindy was in the lounge or the dressing room when they were filming, she would remain silent unless she was forced to speak.

At any rate, she always tried her best to minimize her presence.

The fact that she wanted others to forget she was there could only lead to one conclusion, which was that she was overly cautious.

After all, anyone who was at least somewhat confident in themselves would want to attract the attention of others at some point.

In the end, he sighed soundlessly before following his mother.

The night market spanned the length of two streets and with no particular destination in mind, Ian and Aurora strolled about, browsing the stalls on occasion.
