Chapter 1682 Date Me
Peter looked a lot more mature than before. He noticed Cindy as she was walking toward him, and he hurried over
to meet her. Despite a change in his looks, Cindy’s attitude toward him remained the same as usual. “What is it?
Why are you in such a rush to meet me? Did something happen?”
The man’s expression had changed from his usual laid back look to a more serious and solemn look. “Yeah. There’s
a question that I’d like to ask you.”
Cindy immediately had a bad feeling about the situation. She could already tell that Peter treated her more than
just friends when they were interacting with each other the day before, so she had some idea of what Peter wanted
to talk about when she saw the look on his face.
Indeed, Peter took a deep breath before he looked at her with a sincere gaze. “I’d like to check if you really have a
boyfriend. If you don’t, could you consider dating me? We might not have spent that much time together in the past
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttwo days, but I realized that I really like you. I’ve never felt this way for any other girl, not even those whom I’ve
known for years. I’m sure that I have romantic feelings for you that go beyond the normal fondness a friend has for
another. I’m telling you this because I’d like to fight for a chance to be with you.” Peter was extremely
straightforward with his words, and Cindy heaved a sigh of relief after hearing it.
What Cindy despised the most was the sort of blurry, uncertain relationship that she had with Ian, and she was glad
that Peter wasn’t that sort of person. “Well, I have a boyfriend,” she replied with a sigh. “It’s the guy you met
yesterday. You’re a great guy, but if I were being honest, I wouldn’t date you even if I didn’t have a boyfriend.
You’re not my type of guy. After spending time with you in the past two days, I feel like you can be a really good
friend, but I know that there’s no chance for us to be anything more than that.”
Meanwhile, Ian had headed downstairs to look around for Cindy. It took him a while to find Cindy, but he soon found
her with a man standing opposite her. Ian felt his insides burning with rage whenever he saw Peter, and he lost
control of his actions before he realized what was going on. He came here to see her again, huh?! he thought as he
stormed toward them.
Cindy was standing with her back turned against Ian, so she had no idea that he was there. She was still talking to
Peter. “I have a pretty good relationship with my boyfriend. I’m really thankful for all of the care you showed me in
the past two days. If you feel troubled by my response, I’ll stop going to the same park from now on. Anyway, I’m
not supposed to be here for long—I’ll be returning to work really soon,” she explained.
By the time she finished, Ian had already sneaked up behind her. He reached an arm out and grabbed Cindy’s
forearm before tugging her close to him. She had no idea that Ian was behind her, so she let out a scream when
she felt herself being tugged by someone else. On the other hand, Peter had already caught sight of Ian earlier, so
he was only shocked for a brief moment before he returned to his neutral expression.
With his arm around Cindy’s waist, Ian pressed her body tightly against his as he looked up to meet Peter’s eyes. “Is
there an issue here?”
Peter pressed his lips into a thin line. You’re the issue here, but I can’t tell you that, he thought.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Cindy was sure that the person hugging her was Ian, she frowned for a short while before looking indifferent
again. She couldn’t ask Ian why he came down for her; not when they were in front of Peter. She changed her
script a little to convey the same message. “Didn’t I say that I’d go up in a while? Why did you follow me down?”
Ian tried his best to sound calm and nice. “You haven’t even had your breakfast. Why can’t you guys talk a little
later?”
She forced a smile as she reached an arm around to hug Ian’s waist. “That’s true. I haven’t had breakfast,” she
uttered as she turned to look at Peter. “I’ll remember what you told me earlier, and I’ll pay a little more attention to
it when I play badminton in the future. Is there anything else you’d like to tell me? If not, then I’ll head home now.”
Since Ian was there, Peter couldn’t say anything else, so he merely nodded. Cindy applied some pressure onto Ian’s
waist as she pushed him out of the gazebo. As they walked next to each other, it seemed as if they were a loving
couple, but things didn’t look as sweet when one looked at the sour expressions on their faces.
Once they got into their building, Cindy pulled her hand away from Ian’s waist. She felt rather embarrassed, and
her palm was sweating after hugging his waist for so long.
