Chapter 1876 Family Circumstances

To the reporters, Ian’s unexpected replies were akin to slaps on their faces. Originally, when the media crowded

around, they were worried that Ian would make things difficult for them, but Ian’s attitude this time was

unexpectedly nice.

Since Ian was being friendly, the media responded kindly. They asked pleasant and harmless questions instead of

tricky ones. Ian’s hand was on Cindy’s shoulder all the time, and the two seemed comfortable together.

The two also exchanged smiles occasionally when they were answering the questions from the media. The

emotions expressed through tiny details were actually the truest ones.

The journalists weren't great in number, but they weren’t few either. If they were allowed to ask questions without

end, Ian and Cindy wouldn’t know when they would be able to leave.

Even though there wasn’t much traffic in the amusement park, it still wouldn’t be ideal to attract unnecessary

onlookers.

So, after Ian answered a few questions, he put his arm around Cindy and walked to the side of the road. As he

walked, he said, “It’s getting late, so please excuse us. Let’s continue the topic when we meet again, if possible.”

The media naturally followed them in hopes of squeezing in another question or two. There was a cab by the road,

so Ian took Cindy over there and let her get into the car first. Then, Ian turned around to look at the media people.

He took off his mask and said to those people, “Be careful not to squeeze each other so much. We’ll have a chance

to talk next time. It really is getting late today, and it’s not the right place to hold such conversations. If we attract

onlookers, it will cause more trouble. I hope you understand. Goodbye.”

With that, he turned around and got into the cab as well.

In the past, when Ian was swarmed by people, the media would slam against the door of the cab after Ian got into

the car. This time, however, the reporters seemed to be quite reasonable as they backed off and allowed some

space for the cab Ian was in. Without any hesitation, the cab drove off.

Cindy took off her mask and giggled. “I wonder what happened today. The fans we met were so understanding, and

the media was so nice too. It’s a good day today.”

Ian exhaled slowly, his expression still a little uneasy. “To be honest, I really don’t want to face those media people;

who knows what sorts of people they are? They might take my words out of context or read too much into

everything. It’s too hard to talk to them.”

Cindy scooted over and leaned against Ian’s shoulder, chuckling. “You’ll have to face them someday, so learn a

thing or two while you can.”

Ian didn’t respond. After a while, he suddenly piped up, “Everything I told the media just now is true.”

Cindy didn’t quite understand what Ian meant by that, so she just gave a casual response. “Oh, it’s true. All right.

Got it.”

Hearing her tone, Ian knew immediately that she was clueless, so he said, “We have no way of seeing your mother

now, so I’ll give her a call when I have time. We’ve been together for so long, but I’ve never greeted your mother,

so I think it’s not very appropriate to drag it out any longer.”

Cindy finally realized what Ian was getting at. She pursed her lips and hesitated for a bit before saying, “We’ll see.

My mom is a little busy these days too.”

Hazel’s daily activities included playing poker, which always took up a lot of time. Cindy really didn’t want to hear

any poker sounds coming from Hazel’s end of the line when she called. So, Cindy intended to delay it as much as

possible.

Ian naturally could understand what Cindy meant. He pinched Cindy’s cheek and pulled her close. “Why? Are you

embarrassed by me?”

Cindy didn’t have the courage to tell him that the main point wasn’t whether she was ashamed of him. It had more

to do with her family circumstances, which were a bit unique. How am I supposed to have faith in Mom?

It was impossible for Cindy to imagine how Hazel would react if Ian called her over the phone or what words would

come out of her mouth.
