Next One Is a Babe

Chapter 1933


Eventually, they came to an area with all sorts of outdoor food stalls. Despite the blazing sun, many of the stalls ran their business as usual. Ian didn’t need to walk over to be able to smell the mouth-watering scent. He halted his footsteps as he took a deep breath. “This smells really good.”

Cindy smiled. Her hometown was known for its street food, and it was pretty famous even in other townships. Although the couple had just finished their meal, Cindy found herself tempted by the delicious scents that filled the air. “Let’s try them out,” she said as she dragged him over to the stalls.

Meanwhile, Hazel and the neighbors were still sitting around in her house. The neighbors were busybodies who didn’t know their limits. “I can’t believe she found a boyfriend so soon. Previously, I recall that your daughter rejected others when they tried to introduce her to someone. I thought she didn’t want to focus on her love life since she had just graduated. Yet, she brought him home!” one neighbor stated.

“She wasn’t interested in dating previously, but this guy continued sticking around and treating her well. It’s hard for Cindy to live out there on her own, so I’m sure she also fell for him because of how much he cares for her,” Hazel replied hastily.


“Is he planning to stay here? What about his own family? You need to be clear about his background—you don’t want to walk into a trap blindly.” Another neighbor reminded Hazel.

“He seems to come from a pretty rich family, and he looks like he’s doing well. Of course, I don’t know if he’s just putting on a show. I’ll have to get Cindy to follow up on this matter,” Hazel replied.

“I guess it’s fine as long as he’s rich. Money rules the world nowadays; your life would be ten times easier if you married a rich person,” someone else added.

Hazel nodded. “That’s right. It is an important factor to be considered. Anyway, I’m sure Ian was being honest when he told me about his background.” The few neighbors continued gossiping about Ian and Cindy. Cindy was at the ideal age for marriage, so some of the neighbors urged Hazel to support the marriage if the man was from a wealthy family. If Cindy got married and gave birth to a child, both Cindy and Hazel would be set for the rest of their lives. They would no longer have to struggle to support Keith.

Hazel had considered all these factors, so she merely responded with a thoughtful nod. “Yeah. That’s what I thought too, but he has just arrived, and I haven’t gotten a chance to observe him properly. I need more time.”

While the neighbors’ discussion went on, Cindy and Ian circled the food stalls and bought everything that caught their eye. Ian didn’t have to conceal his identity as there weren’t many who recognized him. The stall owners treated him like a regular individual, and they didn’t even look twice at him. Ian loved living a life like this, where he didn’t feel watched whenever he was out in public. He was free to do whatever he wanted to.
