The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

Chapter 2085

Chapter 2085 Don’t Get Too Disappointed

Cindy's lips were pursed as she watched Valerie complete her registration, obtain her room key, and have her assistant carry her luggage. It was only until Cindy had seen the duo going into the elevator that she gave up on her lurking and ran back to Ian.

Ian had been holding a disposable lunch box as he stood there looking at her. He only asked her in excitement when she had returned to his side. "What? What is it? What did you see?"

She took the lunch box from his hand and grabbed one of the toothpicks in it before popping some food into her mouth. "I recognized the wrong person. I thought that it was someone whom I knew, but I only realized that it wasn't who I thought it was after I saw them up close," she muttered.

Knowing that there weren't a lot of people she recognized, he initially thought that she had seen Gary.

It was unavoidable for him to think that as Gary was someone who had traumatized him with his very presence. He quickly asked again, "Who was it that you thought you saw?"

"I thought it was my colleague," Cindy replied as indifferently as she could. "I only realized that it wasn't them when I went over earlier. The only similarity that they share is their physique."

Then, she tried to change the topic of their conversation by stuffing the food in Ian's face. "Try this. It isn't too bad. The taste is pretty lovely too," she said.

Ian shook his head and continued questioning her. "Are you very close with your colleague?"

"They are the only ones whom I can talk to. They joined the company using their connections as well, so they probably used to be outed by others like how I was," she answered with a sigh.

He finally fell silent after hearing her detailed, convincing explanation.

Ian knew that he was being too sensitive about her. Gary was the first person to come to his mind whenever Cindy mentioned her work. They soon continued their walk along the street, and now, Ian made sure to properly keep his mask and cap on.

There was a small square not far ahead that was bustling with noise. There were elderly people with children as well as young couples hanging around the place.

Thanks to the crowd, the square seemed even more rowdy due to its small size.

Cindy had finished the snacks she was holding at that moment, and after throwing the paper lunch box into a nearby trash bin, she squealed, "Let's see what is over there."

Ian was slightly reluctant about heading straight into a crowd because of his circumstances.

He had already been spotted by the public at the airport. If anything else were to happen again, he would have to do some explanation to Hannah.

Cindy laughed when she guessed the reason behind his hesitation. She went over and hugged his arm before she teased, "There are so many people here. I doubt anyone will notice us. I was just about to remind you to not feel too disappointed in case no one recognizes you."

Hearing her words made him laugh heartily, and he lifted his arm to hug her around her shoulders. "I'm not an egomaniac. It would be so much better if no one recognizes me!"

She then pulled Ian by his wrist and started leading the way toward the square. "Let's go, then! I can't wait to dive into a crowd when I see one."
