Ian was indeed a picky eater.
When he was young, his mommy, Sasha, discovered that secret of his when she met him for the first time. In order
to win his heart, she kept him by her side and made several of his favorite dishes for him.
Therefore, as part of the Jadesons, it was only natural that Susan would remember what her nephew liked to eat.
Furthermore, to take good care of him, Susan even asked Sasha for advice.
Ian was enjoying his food.
When Susan tasted the food that Zaylynn had prepared, she found them quite delicious as well.
After they finished their meal, Ian returned to work at the library as usual. Susan wanted to send him there, but
once again, Zaylynn offered her help.
“I'll send him there. I have a car.”
“A car?”
Susan looked at her in surprise.
That's right. I have forgotten that this Zaylynn seems to be from a wealthy family. Even when she is going to school,
she has her own personal chauffeur.
Thinking of Ian's leg, Susan agreed.
“Ian, then you go ahead with Zaylynn to the library. There's still something I need to handle. Once I'm done, I'll
come and fetch you, and we'll go back together.”
“Sure.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIan did not sound very willing though.
However, when he knew that he could go home earlier after his class, he had no objection.
Naturally, Zaylynn was thrilled.
That afternoon, the entire school saw the two of them together as she drove him to the library. After that, everyone
started gossiping about them.
“Does that mean that the popular Ms. Neal has finally found herself a boyfriend?”
“That's right. He's the new guy from the Faculty of Finance. This afternoon, someone saw him sitting in Zaylynn's
car.”
“Oh my! Who is he? He has such good fortune. The moment he comes, he manages to latch on to the rich Ms.
Neal.”
“I suppose it must be his good looks?”
Within the short span of a few hours, the entire campus was talking about the two of them.
They were filled with disdain for Ian and believed that he had enchanted Zaylynn with his good looks. That was how
he got lucky and managed to hook up with her. At least, that was their conclusion.
Yasmin only heard about that when she came out of the internet café.
After the incident at the library the day before, she had been so traumatized that she did not want to go there
again. Instead, she had come to the internet café to perform simulated market research.
In the end, she heard such a piece of news again.
Zaylynn is dating Cold Fish?
When she heard that, she did not know what to feel. Her initial reaction was to sneer quietly.
One was a lunatic. The other one was brainless. What a match made in Heaven!
Just as Yasmin was walking out of the internet café with her backpack and going to her class, she saw a man with
bandages wrapped around one of his legs. He was limping in her direction.
Isn't that Ian?
The moment Yasmin saw him, she looked away and was prepared to leave because she had no wish to talk to him.
“What are you talking about? Didn't I already remind you? Just ignore them. Why are you in such a hurry to make
your moves? Am I the one who is in charge of this case, or are you the one?”
The angry voice of Ian had somehow turned the air around them a little colder.
Yasmin slowed down in her steps.
Ian said, “Stop trying to explain to me. Come to the school right now, and pick me up!”
He was certainly commanding the other party in the phone.
Yvonne responded, “Mr. Ian, please don't get angry. We have been trying to get in touch with you for the entire
afternoon but to no avail. That's why we decided to take action first!”
“Hah!”
Hearing her excuses made Ian even more enraged. All he did was let out a cold laugh.
They had really underestimated his intelligence.
Did they think he's Caleb?

Ian hung up the phone in a rage and looked up. He was thinking of ways to get out of there.
Just then...
“Yasmin!”
“Huh?”
Yasmin, who was already walking away, stopped and glanced at the person who had called out her name.
He can still remember my name? What an honor.
“You know how to ride a bicycle, don't you? Take me out of here,” ordered Ian. There was no hint of pleading for
help in his tone at all.
Yasmin was dumbfounded.
It was only after a few seconds had passed before she realized that she did not hear him wrongly. That was when
she walked over to him.
“Y-You want me to send you out of here?”
“Yes!”
“Why?”
“I have something on!”
Ian still had his emotionless expression on. After seeing that Yasmin refused to move, impatience started to show
on that gorgeous face of his.
What's wrong with these people? Are they so dumb that they can't understand simple instructions?
Yasmin was so pissed off that she took a deep breath before walking away.
This man is sick! Is that how he begs people for help? Furthermore, why should I help him? Yesterday, he had made
things so awkward for me, and everyone witnessed him telling me off.
Yasmin could not be bothered with a weirdo like him.q
