Chapter 1933 A Normal Couple

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.

Even Cindy felt oddly relaxed today. She felt like she and Ian were just another normal couple who could hold hands

as they walked on the streets. Cindy left a food stain on the corner of her lips, and Ian couldn’t help but plant a kiss

on her lips after he wiped the stain off. Cindy didn’t feel any fear despite being in public—she merely exchanged

glances with Ian before smiling. The people who walked past them didn’t realize anything at all. That was when

Cindy understood the reason Ian liked living in the village.

Both of them strolled around for a long while before they finally went home. Their neighbors were gone by then,

and Hazel had stayed home to clean the place up instead of going out to play poker. The moment Cindy and Ian

entered the house, Hazel turned to look at them. “Have you guys eaten? You guys were out for a really long time.”

Cindy sat down on the couch. “We ate out, but we bought you some food,” she uttered as she placed Hazel’s lunch

on the coffee table. Hazel lowered the cleaning tools in her hands before she sat down beside Cindy. “How many

days will you guys be staying?”

Ian had a total of three days to spare, but they couldn’t spend their entire time there, could they? They had to

return home to prepare for his shooting.
