Standing beside Sophia and Ian, Logan said solemnly, “After what happened to the Morgan Family, Ian
had gone missing, so I looked for him everywhere. Then, I heard that some musicians had formed a
band and started performing here. I thought that Ian was one of them and came to search for him. To
my disappointment, he was nowhere to be seen.”
Sophia and Ian were startled. She shifted her attention to Logan and realized that the latter’s
expression was serious. The said band members were now performing a rock song, which made the
atmosphere lively.
Knowing the period of time Logan was talking about, Ian directly said, “I had already left this place at
that time.”
Logan mumbled, “I figured it out later.”
Gazing at them, Sophia never asked what happened, for it must be a bad enough experience to force
Ian out of this place. She didn’t have to give it a thought to know what would make Ian leave his family,
considering the Morgan Family’s situation at that time.
Ian waited for the band members to finish the song and walked over. Standing from afar, Sophia
couldn’t make out what Ian was saying to the band members, who then nodded and passed him a
guitar. Remaining on the spot, Ian started playing the guitar and singing a love song. Since he was
handsome and his voice was wonderful, the crowd started moving closer to enjoy his performance.

decided to post one of the videos to her social media. After that, Logan commented with a smile, “Look
at Ian. If he grew up in a normal family, he would have become a more outstanding man.”
Sophia didn’t respond to him because it was beyond her imagination. If she had grown up in a normal
family as well, maybe she would have become a better woman. At the very least, she wouldn’t be
viewed unfavorably when she was with John. However, this was just a random thought after all.
After Ian finished singing a song, many people cheered and wanted him to perform one more song.
Sophia remarked after a sigh, “Ian is handsome. It’s a shame that he never became a celebrity. Look,
the man shines brighter than a star just by standing there.”
Shifting his attention to Sophia, Logan fell into his own thoughts with a frown and remained silent. At
this moment, Ian decided that he wouldn’t perform one more song and returned the guitar to the band
members before going back to his friends. “Let’s go.”
Logan nodded. “When I was bored at night in the past, I would come here and watch their
performance.” Sophia thought he was going to say something emotional, but to her surprise, he
continued, “However, I didn’t feel bored anymore when I realized that these people were not as rich as I
was. Counting money at home is a good pastime as well.”
Sophia smiled silently as she shouldn’t have any high hopes of Logan. That was typical of him to say
such things.
After they left the place, they went to another street that was hustling and bustling at that time. The
roadsides were occupied with street vendors while the old and the young walked around the place. Still
energetic, Logan looked at them and said, “Let’s shop together. This place is full of things that are
affordable and useful. If you like anything, I’ll buy it for you.”
Sophia agreed to his idea since she had never been to such a lively street market. Turning around, she
looked at Ian and persuaded, “Let’s walk around. This place seems fun.”
Ian nodded. “Alright.”
As they walked toward the other end of the street, Logan found a stall that sold cheap drinks. He
quickly bought three cups of drinks and passed them to Sophia and Ian. “I saw kids drinking this just
now. It should be tasty.”
Sophia giggled and took it over. “Logan, have you been to such a place before?”
Logan replied, “Ah, I was alone in the past so I never visited this area. After all, friends are needed
when coming to such a place.”
