Nonetheless, the assistant still envied Cindy. “Although you’ve got a lot to do, it’s just different. You’re dating while
working, yet I’m only working, so I’ve got no motivation.”
Cindy patted her on the shoulder. “Think of money. When there’s money, there’s motivation.”
The assistant shook her head. “I don’t have much of a desire for money now.”
All of a sudden, Cindy envied her. How I wish that I too won’t have much of a desire for money one day! After all,
one would only have no desire for something because one already has it. I wonder when I’ll have enough resources
to support me that I no longer have any desire for money.
It was only when Ian came over did the assistant leave.
Ian glanced at the assistant. “You’re acquainted with her?”
Cindy nodded. “Just got acquainted a while ago. Thanks to you, my popularity has gone up, so people take the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinitiative to strike up a conversation with me.”
Ian chuckled. “Well, get used to it. You might even debut in the future.”
The two of them could joke around now since their relationship was much closer than before. They then left the
studio while chatting and laughing as they returned to the house. Thereafter, Ian truly put his words into action by
helping Cindy to move the furniture. Cindy, on the other hand, took up the task of cleaning the house. Despite the
house having two rooms and a living room, it was actually not particularly big. Furthermore, it was relatively clean
to begin with, so it wasn’t all that tiring to clean.
They were done in no time.
Ian’s room had an attached bathroom, so he went back to his room for a shower. Meanwhile, Cindy washed up
outside and started cooking lunch when she was done. Ian then sauntered out and meandered into the kitchen.
After a moment’s contemplation, he took the spring onions at the side. “I’ll help to chop the onions.” Cindy didn’t
even look at him. “Sure.” After they’d both cleaned the house, she was now accustomed to him helping her. When
Ian was done with the onions, he moved on to the garlic before helping to wash the vegetables as well, rendering
his services for all the prep work. In the end, Cindy cut the vegetables and cooked, finding the entire process
smoother than usual. When they were eating, Ian truly took out a piece of paper and handed it to Cindy. “This is the
menu I came up with. If there’s anything you like, you can also add them in. Just pick a few dishes from here each
day.” Cindy laughed. “You really made a list? I thought it was just a joke.” Ian was extremely serious. “It was no joke.
I seldom joke.” Suddenly, Cindy recalled his remark that she might debut. Failing to stifle her laughter, she again
tittered. Ian arched an eyebrow. “You don’t believe me?” “I do.” Cindy immediately put on an innocent expression.
“I believe everything you say. Really.

” Snorting, Ian lowered his head and continued eating without bothering her anymore. Their interactions grew
increasingly harmonious. After eating, they reclined against the sofa and watched television. For the first time, Ian
asked Cindy the kind of genre she liked for movies or television series. Her brows knitting together, Cindy pondered
for a moment. “Horror.” Surprise gripped Ian. “I never expected you to like such a genre.” Cindy thought for a
moment before explaining, “Perhaps it’s because I don’t quite believe in sweet romance dramas, so I find it
amusing sometimes when I see all the lovey-dovey stuff.” Amused, Ian dissolved into laughter. “Hannah even said
that she’s planning to have me go into idol dramas in the future since it’ll gain me many fans.” At times, when a
drama is popular, the characters will then stand out. The characters of rich young men, especially, attract tons of
female fans. Cindy shifted her gaze to him. “If you really accept an idol drama, I promise that I won’t laugh on set.”
Nodding solemnly, Ian replied, “Then, I truly thank you.” After saying that, both of them burst out laughing. Ian took
the remote control and actually found a horror movie. There wasn’t much of an atmosphere to watch a horror
movie at noon, so they were both rather grave as they watched it. When the female ghost appeared, Cindy
frowned. “Her eye makeup is rather bad. It’s not scary at all. Rather, it just looks dirty.”
