The Returning EX (John and Sophia)

Chapter 2065 Rumor

Cindy hummed in agreement. Their eating hours had been disrupted by the nap earlier.

After tidying up, she asked lan casually, "Who were you talking to on the phone earlier?"

Without hiding anything, lan answered honestly, "It was Valerie. She called me while I was sleeping. I answered half-consciously and I can't remember what she said. Hence, I called her back."

After finishing his sentence, he leaned against the door of the washroom and said, "But it looks like there's nothing important."

As Cindy heard that, she merely nodded. She had previously overheard their conversation while in lan's arms and based on their tone of voice--they did not appear to be close to each other.

She wondered if she was overreacting to the situation. She was always especially sensitive to lan's interpersonal relationships.

She was speechless with herself for behaving in such a way. Even if lan were a commoner and not a celebrity, he would still have to deal with people of the opposite sex.

As such, it was pointless for her to be defensive whenever a woman got close to him.

After Cindy was done, both of them exited the hotel and bought some fruits and snacks.

Initially, Cindy had thought that they would be able to fully relax and enjoy themselves in a foreign city during lan's break these few days.

She had, however, overestimated both herself and lan. According to their personality, they would spend the majority of their time in the room regardless of how many days of holiday they had.

When they returned, Aurora was awake and came knocking on their door.

She threw her phone on the sofa the moment she entered their room and served herself a banana while saying, "When can we have dinner? I'm hungry."

It was already afternoon and dinner time was approaching.

Cindy, who was sitting cross-legged, took a glance at Aurora's phone and said, "Have some snacks first. Our dinner is starting earlier and we will be leaving soon."

Hearing that, Aurora walked toward the window and leaned against it. "My nap earlier wasn't comfortable at all. A hotel, no matter how comfortable, can never compare to our own home."

lan agreed, "That's true. I didn't sleep well here either. Home is the best."

Aurora then asked casually, "Did the crew contact you during your break these two days? I figure that they would."

Cindy showed no reaction. Ian, on the other hand, said, "They did contact me to confirm my time of return. They also said it was to arrange some of my shots in advance."

Without further thought, Aurora nodded while letting out a sigh. "I remember the one who will be acting with you is a lady who can draw in a lot of traffic on the internet. What's her name? V-Valerie?"

lan confirmed this. Then, Aurora continued, "I've heard that every male actor who has previously worked with her has become famous overnight. She's someone who complements male actors very well."

Cindy had heard of the same thing too. When lan agreed to take on this show previously, she had done some background checks on Valerie.

Not only did Valerie have a good reputation for attracting audiences, but all of the male actors who had previously worked with her became well-known.

lan, however, let out a sneer. "It's uncertain as it also depends on their own capabilities. She can't really help those who are really terrible."

"How about you then?" Aurora teased him.

lan didn't have much confidence in himself. "I'm not hoping to become well-known. It would be good enough not to get scolded."

After saying that, he laughed to himself. "I'm going to debunk the rumor that she can make male actors famous!"

Cindy gave him a stare. "You'll probably get famous overnight after this. You can even form an on-screen couple with her for your popularity."

As she said in a joking tone, no one took her words for real. At that, lan shook his head and replied, "I hate forming an on-screen couple."

Sena had previously intended for the two of them to do so to attract the attention of the audience, but he was uncomfortable with it.

Leaning on the chair, Cindy said, "But that was the thing that people do now to increase their popularity."
