It wasn’t all that tiring today, but Cindy was still quite happy that she got to go to bed early for a change. She was
already used to sleeping on the sofa, so she groggily fell into slumber in no time. However, she heard a noise in the
middle of the night, jolting her awake. She didn’t move, merely opening her eyes and looking in the direction of the
light.
It was Ian going to the washroom. Every single time this happened, she found it extremely awkward because the
washroom had truly bad soundproofing, so she could hear the slightest noise loud and clear. She then quickly
closed her eyes and continued feigning sleep.
Meanwhile, Ian had also tried his best to make as little noise as possible. After flushing the toilet, he washed his
hands before turning off the lights and coming out. Upon seeing that Cindy was still in the same position on the
sofa, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurried back to his room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen he’d gone back in and closed the door, Cindy who was outside breathed a sigh of relief as well. For some
inexplicable reason, her face was slightly flushed. Such days are truly torturous! Perhaps it was because of the
incident that her sleep was disrupted for the rest of the night, for she kept jolting awake and glancing at Ian’s room.
For some reason, she just felt uneasy.
Finally, the gossip on Ian and Cindy slowly subsided. After all, things like gossip couldn’t receive endless attention,
else it’d turn stale. When it was almost time, it was always necessary to turn down the heat. Despite the diminished
popularity and attention, both Ian and Cindy breathed easier. After all, it wasn’t pleasant to be tailed by the
paparazzi, and both of them were similar in that they wanted a life with more freedom.
Having lived under the same roof for half a month, both of them had somewhat gotten used to the other. The only
thing that had them feeling discomfited was the house. There was only one room in the house, and while Cindy had
no problems sleeping on the sofa, it was indeed inconvenient. Besides, the slightest movement in the washroom
was clearly audible to the person outside. Ian was better off since he could hide away in his room, but Cindy had
nowhere to go. When Ian was in the washroom, she could only endure it outside.
Ian was aware of this issue, so he made some time for a house viewing with Cindy to resolve this problem that was
embarrassing yet difficult to speak of. The house they looked at had two rooms and was slightly bigger.
Otherwise, it was not much different. He was very respectful of Cindy’s opinion, asking her whether she had any
dissatisfaction toward the environment or décor. Cindy wasn’t a fastidious person in nature. After taking a look
around, she realized that the two rooms had similar lightning and could be considered a double master
bedroom. He’s probably showing me consideration. She then nodded. “I’m fine with this.” The house owner was an
elderly couple who were up in years. They probably didn’t pay attention to the news usually, for they didn’t
recognize Ian at all. Rather, they regarded Ian and Cindy as a young couple who were looking for a place.
Chuckling, the elderly man remarked, “This house of ours is both fruitful and prosperous. After living in our house
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfor a little over a year, the few tenants before this enjoyed smooth sailing in their jobs, securing promotions and
salary increments before purchasing a house themselves. Some couples also conceived after living here for a few
months. Thus, this house has good juju.
” Cindy merely smiled politely without saying anything. Ian didn’t explain much either since their relationship now
was indeed that of a couple. As Cindy and Ian both looked decent, the elderly couple had no qualms renting the
house to them, even saying that the rent could be lowered slightly if they were going to rent it long-term. The
elderly man was very frank, outright admitting, “I don’t want to find another tenant just after a year. That’s too
troublesome, so I’d prefer tenants who’ll be renting long-term.” Ian turned to look at Cindy, indicating that the
decision was in her hands. Looking around, Cindy then recalled the house in which they were living now. This was a
much better improvement, so she nodded. “Not bad.” By saying this, it meant that she liked this place better. Right
then and there, Ian talked to the elderly man about signing the lease. .
