Chapter 1485 An Embarrassing and Annoying Dream

Initially, Cindy wanted to cook up a feast for Ian, so she made a whole table’s worth of food. Now that she had

cooked all that food, she was the only one to eat it.

Cindy lowered her head and ate a few mouthfuls. For some reason, she felt that there was no point to any of this,

and she also felt like her efforts had been betrayed.

Throughout the entire meal, Ian never once came back out. The house was silent, and it seemed as though he

hadn’t returned at all.

Meanwhile, Cindy had lost her appetite. After consuming half of her plate’s contents, she put down her cutlery and

let out a long sigh. She then got up to store the leftovers before washing the dishes. Once that was done, she

turned on the television and plopped down on the couch to watch it alone.

Ian still hadn’t emerged, nor was there any sound from his room. It felt inexplicably eerie, seeming as though they

were both caught up in a cold war.

Cindy thought about it carefully, cataloguing everything that had happened today. She was very sure that there had

been any friction between them. After all, everything had been perfectly fine until then.

She really couldn’t figure out what Ian was pulling.

Cindy waited for a bit before she took out her phone and logged into her game, only to find that Ian was in the

middle of a round.

He was actually hiding away in his room to game?

They used to party up together whenever they played, though. Now, he was playing this game while sequestered

away in his room. Clearly, this wasn’t quite normal.

Cindy gave it some thought before she got up and walked over to Ian’s room. She first knocked on the door gently.

“Ian, are you asleep?”

After a few seconds, Ian replied, “No.”

However, he didn’t beckon her to enter either.

She licked her lips. After some more thinking, she said, “Are you sick?”

“No,” answered Ian once more.

This conversation was going nowhere.

Cindy took a few breaths. “Okay then. Sleep early.”

With that, she switched off the lights in the living room and returned to her own bedroom.

Cindy originally wanted to play a round or two, but she wasn’t in the mood for it right now. Instead, she browsed the

latest gossip on her phone.

Celebrity gossip came and went very quickly, so Linda’s incident was no longer on the front pages of the tabloids.

Instead, the current hottest headlines were about some random minor celebrity bringing another celebrity down to

boost her own fame.

Cindy scrolled through the articles for a while, but she couldn’t bear to continue reading. In the end, she just

switched the lights off and went to sleep.

Meanwhile, Ian ended up losing his current round. The game had been going smoothly, but his control had gotten

worse after he answered Cindy’s questions. Ian put down his phone and sighed deeply. Throughout it all, his

forehead remained creased. It was evident that he wasn’t in a good mood. That terrible mood had started once he

woke up from his afternoon nap earlier, and it persisted until now. No one had gotten on his nerves—it was a

problem of his own making.

Earlier on, he had dreamed a dream that he was embarrassed about. He dreamed that he and Cindy had gotten

together. There was no rhyme or reason to it; they simply lived a sweet, wonderful life together. He even kissed

Cindy in the middle of the dream.

It felt absolutely real, for the sensation of her lips and the feeling under his palms did not seem to be from a dream

at all. It was so realistic that it felt like he had actually kissed her in real life.

That was the reason for his irritation when he woke up. Whenever he thought of the dream, he would feel

embarrassed, feeling that he was a bit depraved.

Why did he dream of something like this? Ian couldn’t figure out why.

When he woke up, the dream was still fresh in his mind. He could even remember every little interaction that he

and Cindy had during the dream, and he could also remember the way Cindy had looked at him then.

Ian got even more annoyed at the thought. He got up and headed to the bathroom to take a cold shower. When he

was done, a thought struck him. He then opened his door and glanced at the living room.

It was already dark. Evidently, Cindy had gone back to her room.

He didn’t want to see Cindy—especially after that dream.

Fortunately for him, Cindy was on break starting from tomorrow. Ian wouldn’t have to see her for the next three

days, and the thought eased his mind a little. It would also give him some time to process the dream.

Ian then left his room to get himself a glass of water. When he went back, he looked at Cindy’s door for a moment.
