Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1674

Cindy opened one of the bottles and took a few sips of the drink before she turned back to the game. Aurora called me earlier, and I’m assuming that Ian had been beside her. If that’s the case, why did he come looking for me? Did he come because he was bored? Or did he come because he was worried about me? She let out a long sigh. She couldn’t read his mind at all.

After standing around the bench for a while, Cindy fished her phone out to find a text from Aurora. ‘Ian left the house. Is he with you now?’ the text said. Cindy hastily replied to tell Aurora that Ian was playing badminton at the park. Just a few seconds later, Cindy received a call from Aurora.

“Is he with you right now?” Aurora couldn’t conceal the happiness in her voice.

“He just got here a while ago,” Cindy replied with a nod.

Aurora chuckled at this. “After I called you earlier, I told him that you were playing badminton with some other boy. He couldn’t seem to sit still after that. He seemed a little moody at first, but he sneaked out of the house without telling me after that. I was thinking that it’s a natural act for him to go out and look for you. There’s no reason for him to be so secretive about it.” Her voice carried a hint of amusement.

Cindy couldn’t stop herself from glancing in Ian’s direction after she heard Aurora’s words. As she gazed at the man, Aurora continued to speak into the phone. “That guy is obviously jealous. He’s just not admitting it!”

If Aurora had told her the same thing while they were at home, Cindy might not have believed her. Aurora often teased Cindy about her relationship with Ian, and Cindy had gotten used to it. However, something felt rather different during the phone call. As Cindy contemplated Aurora’s words, she looked at how Peter and Ian were giving their all in the badminton match. Both of them were trying very hard to win.

Ian had always been a more laid back and carefree person. For him to take this game so seriously… Could he really be jealous? Cindy felt her heart racing. On the surface, it might seem like he’s getting jealous of my relationship with Peter. But! But… How could he possibly get jealous because of me? I can’t imagine such a thing happening. I don’t even dare to hope for Ian to develop any feelings toward me.

In the end, Cindy merely let out a soft laugh, and she quickly changed the topic. “Do you want to come out too? It must be boring to be home alone, right?”

There was still a hint of playfulness in Aurora’s tone. “No, thank you. Both of you can enjoy a date night out tonight—I won’t be around to disturb you guys.”

After Cindy ended the call with Aurora, she turned to look in Ian’s direction. They had finally ended the match, and they were talking to each other. Both of them seemed to have used all of their strength earlier, but Cindy had no idea who the winner was.
