The Returning EX (John and Sophia) novel Chapter 1441

Chapter 1441 Trolls

Cindy felt like laughing whenever she uttered such words. I carry so many burdens with me. Anyone who gets married to someone like me would only be asking for trouble. How could it be a treat to them?

Ian shifted his gaze to look at her. “Yeah. It’s true.”

She let out a hearty laugh. “I was kidding.” Both of them were starting to get along—their interactions were more natural now and they no longer felt awkward. Ian turned the TV on and switched to a random channel that happened to be playing a show that did deep dives into all sorts of gossip within the entertainment industry.

Most of the people in the entertainment industry had things to hide. It wasn’t just the entertainment industry—most people had dark secrets or nasty experiences. If one truly wished to scrutinize each individual, there wouldn’t be a person who was completely innocent. However, one’s deeds were magnified when one was in the entertainment industry. For example, the issues brought up in the TV program that Ian and Cindy were watching wouldn’t be an issue if a regular individual were to do it.

However, the celebrities would receive all sorts of snarky and critical comments once their deeds were exposed. “Tsk. These things don’t have much of an entertainment value, yet the media and press are always keeping an eye on these celebrities and following them around,” Cindy commented.

Ian nodded. “Yeah. These people are the ones saying that the local celebrities are ruining the country’s reputation, yet they are the ones who are coming up with all these reports surrounding the entertainment industry. It’s like they’re shooting themselves in the foot. I don’t know when I’ll leave this industry. I’ve thought about it, and I don’t think there’s much of a reason for me to stay here. I feel like all of my actions are being watched—how am I supposed to survive like this? I just hope that I’ll be able to save up some funds so that I can do what I want to do.”

“What do you want to do?” Cindy turned to look at him. Ian recalled how he used to travel around and perform gigs in different bars. He was much happier back then. “I’d like to find someone who’s not in the entertainment industry, and I’d like to go someplace that’s less economically developed with her. I want to live a slow-paced and simple life. That’s all I want.”
