Chapter 1723 Why Can’t I Look at My Own Girlfriend?

Aurora wasn’t implying anything with her words but for some reason, Cindy suddenly began to blush.
Aurora wasn’t implying anything with her words but for some reason, Cindy suddenly began to blush.

The latter was now thinking about the things she planned to say to Ian before seeing him, and the actual conversation she had with him just now.

Then, she realized that everything she planned wasn’t used at all. Instead, all her reactions after sitting down face-to-face with Ian were spontaneous.

Meanwhile, Aurora stared at her and asked, “Why is your face all red? What naughthy things did the two of you do at home? I didn’t say much, but your face is already starting to blush. Before this, whenever I teased the two of you, you would just stand there and ignore me. Something’s off...”

After that, she scanned Ian and Cindy thoroughly with a very ambiguous gaze.

Ian felt a little resigned because he knew that Cindy was sensitive, so she would only be embarrassed if this topic continued.

Therefore, he had no choice but to stand up for her. “What are you talking about? She suddenly remembered something Hannah told her, so she wanted to confirm it with me. What naughty things could we do in such a short period of time?”

Listening to him, Cindy blushed again because his last few words were making her feel even more awkward.

As for Aurora, she pursed her lips and was still suspicious of Ian’s explanation, but there was no way for her to get anything out of the two of them, so she decided to let them off the hook.

Since everyone was now outside, they went on a walk together afterward.

However, the weather wasn’t very good as it was a bit cloudy, so a while later, Cindy lifted her head and said, “It’s going to rain.”

“Let’s go back home,” Ian murmured and placed his hand above her head.

Indeed, any small details could reveal the truest thoughts of a person, and Cindy herself was a very sensitive person who considered everything comprehensively.

Seeing Ian’s reaction, she couldn’t help but feel a little moved inside.

As for Aurora, she didn’t pay much attention to it because she knew that Ian had always been a very careful boy. In fact, there were many tiny details before this that revealed his concerns for Cindy.

At that time, Cindy didn’t notice it because she thought that he was only being a gentleman.

Finally, the three of them returned home. When Cindy went to close the windows, the muffled sound of thunder was heard outside and it was followed by a pouring rain.

Looking at the situation outside, Aurora gasped. “Luckily, we came back just in time; otherwise, we would be stuck outside.”

Her words were directed at Ian. Although she didn’t hope for him to reply to her, she expected at least a look from him.

However, he only had his eyes for Cindy, who was closing the windows. It was as if Ian didn’t hear what his mother said at all, even though he was standing not far away from her.

At that, Aurora could no longer stand him. “Restrain yourself a little! It’s not like you just got yourself a girlfriend.”

She was only making a joke, but her words were enough to make Cindy’s heart skip a beat.

To be honest, there was nothing for Cindy to feel guilty about but somehow, she felt as though someone was talking bad about her behind her back.

Then, Ian laughed. “Are you really nagging me for staring at my girlfriend?”

Aurora let out a grunt. “I will stop nagging you if you don’t mess with Cindy from now on. I can’t imagine the amount of times you needed to coax her just because you angered her at first. If this goes on, I won’t trust you anymore no matter how nice you are to her.”

“Alright, alright. I get it.” He smiled.

Seeing that there was nothing else for her to do, Aurora walked away and sat on the couch before waving her hand at Cindy. “Come on, let’s play a game.”

After that, she thought about something for a moment before turning toward Ian. “Cindy told me that you are good at this. Why don’t you play with us?”

Upon hearing that, Ian had no objections as he wanted to stay by Cindy’s side.

And so, the three of them sat down on the couch. However, before Ian could log into the game after taking out his phone, he suddenly received a call.

Looking at the number shown on screen, he remembered that it was the number that Leah used to call him before.
