The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 1488

Chapter 1488 In-Game Status

Cindy turned to look at Naomi. “I’m beginning to suspect that you’re just exaggerating, and I have the proof to show for it.”

Naomi snickered before suddenly changing the topic. “Hey, you didn’t call Ian the whole afternoon. He shouldn’t be busy now, right? Shouldn’t you give him a call then?”

Cindy smacked her lips together. “You didn’t even mention him this afternoon. It’s just us two for the day. Can we not talk about anyone else while it’s just us, my dear?”

Naomi let out a giggle. “What’s with all the secretiveness? Weren’t you doing perfectly fine during that phone call earlier? You even offered to help me get an autographed photo. Don’t tell me that you were just talking yourself up but decided to chicken out once I actually showed up.”

Cindy withdrew her gaze, her eyes once again landing on her phone’s screen. Ian’s account was still shown as ‘online’ in-game, but he hadn’t started his round yet.

“I’m not lying. I’ll help you get that autographed photo once you go back,” she said.

“What do you mean by that?” Naomi asked. “I was thinking of inviting you two out for dinner too. What’s wrong? Can’t bear to bring your Ian out to meet me?”

Cindy laughed. “Hurry up and start the game already.”

Naomi eyed Cindy quietly for a while before continuing to play with her, still in the same party.

They played a few rounds more. Each time their round ended, Cindy would look at her friends list.

Ian still stayed online, but he never started a round during that time.

Cindy didn’t quite understand why Ian was doing this. There were a few times when she thought of inviting him into her party. After mulling it over, however, she abandoned that notion.

Perhaps Ian doesn’t feel like playing.

Meanwhile, Cindy and Naomi kept losing. At last, Naomi ran out of steam. “I’m going to stop. If I keep playing, I will get an aneurysm.”

Cindy didn’t want to continue playing either because she kept wanting to look at Ian’s status.

Ian’s status never once changed, and it perplexed her.

In fact, it left her agitated.

Cindy put her phone down as well. “It’s getting late, so we should wash up and go to sleep. You still have work tomorrow, don’t you?”

“Yeah, another working day tomorrow.” Naomi got off the bed and headed for the bathroom after she picked up her pajamas. “My job’s nothing compared to yours, though. Ah, I’m so envious.”

Cindy didn’t speak. Once Naomi had entered the bathroom, she changed her clothes as well. After some thought, she took out her phone again.

Ian’s in-game status still showed that he was online.

Cindy then exited the game and opened Facebook to scroll through her feed. She didn’t have many friends on Facebook, so she managed to finish seeing everyone’s statuses with just a few swipes.
