Female Novel
Chapter 1680
Cindy’s dream had both Ian and Peter in it. Perhaps it had something to do with her thoughts beforebed, but Peter was extremely romantic toward her in the dream. He was cheesy to a point where Cindyfelt goosebumps forming on her skin. She was extremely resistant to the words that Peter told her. Atfirst, she had been fond of him as a friend, but she no longer wanted to see him after she heard thethings he said in the dream.
After Peter flooded her with his sweet words, the dream shifted to a scene where she was with Ian.Everything that Ian did was a carbon copy of what Peter had done before—Ian repeated all of thewords that Peter said earlier. However, things felt different when Cindy heard the same words from Ian.She had to admit that she didn’t feel any resistance. In fact, she even felt a hint of joy to see Ian actingso affectionately toward her. The entire dream felt both confusing and clear.
Cindy was stuck in the same dream for the whole night, and she couldn’t seem to get out of it. Ian hada dream that night too, but it had been too peculiar and random for him to make any sense of it. Hesimply felt too drained to get himself out of the weird dream. Both of them were caught in their owndreamland, so both of them overslept and woke up late.
In the end, it was Cindy who woke up first. She was immediately embarrassed by the posture that shehad woken up in—her body was pressed against Ian’s once more. However, this time, it wasn’t Ianhugging her, but she clinging onto him like an octopus.
She recalled how she had run over to hug Ian toward the end of her dream. She knew that she was ina dream then, so she could do whatever she wanted to do. Therefore, she had charged up to himwithout any hesitation. However, she hadn’t expected her body to mimic the same actions in real life.She blinked as she glanced at the single ray of sunshine seeping through the gap between thecurtains.
It looked like it was close to noon, and Cindy was too afraid to look up as she wasn’t sure if Ian wasawake. She found herself in a tough spot—she had to find a way to pull her limbs away from him andpretend that she didn’t know anything. Her mind was ringing in panic, but Ian began to move beforeshe found a way to solve her issue.
He carefully slipped himself out of her grip before he gently patted her back and tucked her under hersheets. He even tidied her hair a little before he rolled over and got out of bed. Cindy could feel hercheeks burning.
Ian was in a good mood that morning—he nearly started singing as he brushed his teeth. He had beenawake since a while ago. He woke up when Cindy first rolled over to hug him, but he stayed still withoutmoving his body for a long time. He allowed her to continue hugging him as he was curious to see howshe’d respond when she woke up to find herself in such a position.
However, Cindy didn’t wake up for a long time, and Ian couldn’t hold his bladder for any longer, so heslipped out of bed without waking her up. He felt rather disappointed since he didn’t get to see herreaction. When he was done brushing his teeth, he saw that Aurora was up and out in the hall.“Where’s Cindy?” Aurora asked when she saw Ian on his own. “Is she still asleep?”
“Yeah. She’s probably exhausted after yesterday,” Ian explained. Although he was referring to thebadminton game from yesterday, that wasn’t what Aurora understood from his sentence. She pressedher lips together and shot Ian a thoughtful and cryptic gaze. “Oh… I see.” novelbin
It was almost normal for Aurora to act oddly, so Ian didn’t overthink her actions. “What are we havingfor breakfast? Are we eating at home, or should we go out?”
After thinking about it for a while, Aurora came to a decision. “You can wait at home. I’ll buy usbreakfast after I brush my teeth and freshen up.” With that said, Aurora headed to the washroom. Sheseemed to have read Ian’s mind, for she said after a moment, “You don’t have to come along with me.Just wait at home. I don’t need to buy much for breakfast, so I can carry the food home by myself.There’s no need for the two of us to go out.”
Ian had parted his lips to ask her about this, but he shut them again when she answered his question.He had genuinely intended to accompany Aurora out, but the devilish part of him also longed to stayback just to see Cindy’s reaction. He wasn’t sure if he had awakened Cindy when he got out of bed, buthe wanted to see how she would act when she walked out of the room and came face-to-face with him.
