Cindy owed money to every single person on her contact list. Since they were already wary of her, they
wouldn’t be answering her calls if she wasn’t about to pay them back. Stopping in front of a traffic light,
the driver turned around to check on Cindy. “What’s the matter? You are frowning. Why do you look so
troubled, young girl?”
Startled, Cindy smiled at the driver in return. “It’s nothing.”
There wasn’t a lot that she needed to do for the talk show, so she waited outside when Ian was filming.
During the half an hour when Ian was in the show, Cindy went through her contacts multiple times while
sitting in the car until he was back again, after which they went back to the hotel. Upon arriving, she
helped carry Ian’s luggage to his room before saying, “I’ll be retiring to my room if there’s nothing else
you need.”
Ian cast her a glance while telling her, “You should have room service get you some medicine if you
aren’t feeling well.”
Nodding, Cindy replied, “Sure, I will.” She entered her room after bidding him goodbye. Then, she went
through her contacts again before steeling her nerves to make two phone calls. In fact, she already
knew the reply she would get, as she still owed the other party money, so it was kind of unfair of her to
try to borrow from them again.
Fortunately, one of the people Cindy called was her roommate during university. Instead of getting
angry at her, her former roommate gave her some much-needed advice. “Your family shouldn’t be
relying on you like that. You have to think for yourself! Just look at the life you’re living! You’ll be leading
this sort of life forever if you don’t learn to put up any boundaries.”
Despite understanding every single word she heard, Cindy replied, “I have my own circumstances.
With things as they are, I can’t just quit.” Depressed, she collapsed onto the sofa. “If my family were
even remotely close to a normal family, I would’ve let go a long time ago, but I can’t let go now.”
Meanwhile, her former roommate also knew that Cindy had her own concerns, so she could only heave
a sigh. “Cindy, I’m afraid I can’t be of much help. I just started working, so I don’t have any savings,
since I spend all of my salary every month.”
Murmuring an assent, Cindy said, “It’s okay. You’ll have to wait for some time before I can pay you
back. I’ll try to save up next month so that I can do so.”
After having told Cindy to not sweat about it, her friend hung up, but didn’t seem to believe in Cindy’s
words at all. Cindy put her phone away while curling up on the sofa, feeling groggy and out of sorts
before eventually falling asleep on it.
Meanwhile, Ian watched some TV after showering and changing his clothes. It was already past dinner
time, which, under normal circumstances, Cindy would’ve already ordered or bought him some food.
However, she did neither today, so Ian took it upon himself to order both of them some food from the
room service before calling Cindy.
However, nobody picked up despite him having made two calls, which was abnormal. After some
hesitation, Ian left his room to go check on Cindy, but neither did she answer the door after a few
knocks. From what he gathered, Cindy was more of a homebody, preferring to stick to familiar
circumstances. With her personality, Ian knew she would inform him if she ever needed to go out.
In the end, Ian gave the room service another call. They didn’t dally while dispatching someone to open
the door to Cindy’s room as they were also afraid that something might go wrong. Upon entering the
room, Ian saw Cindy curled up on the sofa, while her face was flushed, indicating that she was having
a fever.
Frowning, Ian disliked situations like that as they were a bother, but seeing that they only had each
other, nobody would take care of Cindy if he didn’t, so he asked for some medicine from the staff
before carrying Cindy into the room. On the other hand, Cindy was in a semi-conscious state, but she
could sense that someone was hanging around in her room.
