It's just The Sims, how did it become my ideal love story?

Chapter 116 The Warmest Day (Seeking votes~)

Hugs and kisses seem to be able to distinguish the level of intimacy among everyone.

But can the value and significance of a real thing be defined and evaluated so simply?
Is a hundred dollars for a poor person and a million dollars for a rich person really that different?
Gu Huai felt that such things couldn't be generalized, and people's intentions couldn't be simply judged as high or low. Only at this moment, thinking of another woman, did he feel despicable, hateful, and fickle.

The movements were a bit slow and hesitant, but in the end, he still managed to hug this excessively soft woman.

Contrary to her cold and aloof appearance, every part of her body seemed like a sponge that one could sink into.

Gu Huai didn't do anything more, just held her tightly in his arms, inhaling the fragrance of her hair. The scent was indescribably pleasant; it was probably the first time he'd smelled a woman's hair so closely. It seemed to possess a magical power that made his blood boil.

The chilly autumn wind had just dispelled the alcohol, so why am I feeling dizzy again? It's as if my cerebral cortex is engorged with blood, and I have no other bodily instincts except to keep hugging tightly.

If someone saw this, they would probably think it was an episode about lovers who were about to part ways and were most reluctant to say goodbye.

But it seems that's not the case at all.

So why were we hugging? My mind was a mess, and I didn't even realize I was using force.

"boom."

He heard the sound of someone patting him from behind, and Gu Huai came back to his senses.

"You want to strangle me, don't you?"

Looking down, he saw Cai Yan's rosy face, glaring at him with a hint of anger.

Gu Huai looked at the other person awkwardly, "Sorry, I was a little distracted just now."

This made Cai Yan even angrier. "You're holding me, what are you daydreaming about? Are you thinking about someone else?"

When did I become such an unappealing person? I took pity on him and let him hold me, and he was still thinking about other people?

Who?
That Xu Wenxi? Or the even more unfathomable Lin Jiang from before?
Gu Huai shook his head, appearing quite honest.

"No, I'm just a little confused right now, and I don't know what I should do."

He just openly expressed his true feelings.

Cai Yan stared at Gu Huai with a strange look in her eyes, her arms still wrapped around his waist. She narrowed her eyes and asked tentatively.

"Do you always act like this when you're drunk?"

"I didn't drink too much."

Gu Huai naturally denied it.

Cai Yan moved a little distance away and placed her hands on the other person's waist. Under the night sky, the two seemed to regard this as their own private space, forgetting the possibility of being seen by others.

"That's strange, you weren't this drunk when we drank together at the bar last time."

Gu Huai shook his head. "I don't know, maybe my alcohol tolerance has been too low lately. Wait a minute, I didn't drink too much!"

"You've had too much to drink, otherwise why would you be hugging me?"

Cai Yan asked.

Gu Huai seemed to realize just then that the two of them had been embracing for far too long.

He immediately let go.

"Feel sorry."

"You think you can just let go like I told you to? I haven't let go at all."

Cai Yan suddenly said this again.

Gu Huai was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously reached out his hand, but before he could land on the other person's soft waist, he finally realized what was happening.

Are you kidding me?

He looked at the aloof and beautiful woman in front of him with a hint of reproach.

Cai Yan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Hahaha, how can he be so cute? He's like a silly goose."

Gu Huai looked at Cai Yan, who had withdrawn her hands, with a hint of annoyance. To be honest, he felt a little regretful. As the lingering warmth gradually dissipated in the cold wind, it seemed that only then would a man begin to reflect on whether he could have done more. However, his lack of experience meant he could only stop there.

But if she thought about it from another angle, if she were a man like Xu Cheng, she would probably be very wary.

"Good for you."

He couldn't bring himself to say anything blaming her, even though her behavior just now did seem like she was mocking him. But how to put it bluntly, being fooled by a woman like this in this way was almost an honor?
Cai Yan squinted at Gu Huai, "Looks like I'll have to pour you more beer when we drink from now on. You look cuter like this."

Gu Huai explained helplessly, "I really didn't drink too much, and I'm not necessarily this bad at drinking every day."

"Your explanation and transition seem to contradict each other. I've determined your explanation to be unreasonable. You're just a noob."

"Aren't you surnamed Cai?"

Are we saying the same thing?

Cai Yan stretched out her foot and kicked Gu Huai's shin in an annoyed manner. To be honest, it wasn't hard, and Gu Huai didn't even bother to rub it.

He smiled at the other person and said, "Aren't you angry now?"

Cai Yan hummed softly as she stood by the roadside, her hands in her pockets, her high-heeled feet pacing lightly as if trying to warm them.

"I've never been angry." "You're saying you're not angry now? Don't blame me for not being able to tell when you're really angry."

"Who's blaming you? You're incredibly stupid, it's unreasonable to expect you to take care of my feelings."

"you know too?"

"You've gotten arrogant, haven't you?"

Seeing the glare in her eyes, Gu Huai couldn't help but laugh. He walked over to her and stood beside her, looking at the ordinary road.

He took a deep breath of the cool, refreshing air of the season, and then said.

"This matter is finally finished."

It seems like now is the time to enjoy the fruits of our labor.

Cai Yan looked at the empty street and said, "You can finally get a good night's sleep, right?"

"Actually, I've been sleeping quite well lately, and I haven't had much insomnia."

"You can see that the dark circles under your eyes have faded to the point of being invisible."

"Come to think of it, I stopped having insomnia the day you came."

"I have this kind of effect too?"

She curled her beautiful lips into a smile, and he stood beside her, his tall, slender figure like a streetlamp that never shines.

Gu Huai shook his head. "I don't know. Maybe it's just a coincidence. But coincidences like this often happen in life, where one person can change your whole life."

“I can’t take responsibility for changing your entire life. You changed your life yourself. I may have had some effect, but ultimately, without your own persistence and courage, it would have been impossible to achieve this.”

Shifting blame at this moment is actually telling this sensitive man who always lacks self-confidence that without her, he might be the Gu Huai he is today.

"What step? There's still a long way to go. Right now, I've only reached the standard of an ordinary person, not that I'm completely useless."

Cai Yan nodded slightly.

"You're very calm; you haven't become arrogant because of a little achievement."

"Because I really don't have the capital to be arrogant, what others can do easily, I might accidentally bring back my original state. So I can only be more cautious and careful."

"Don't be too afraid. One failure won't destroy your life, and the world won't end. The courage to move forward is important, as is the courage to get back up. Alright, it's getting late, I should go back."

It was already nearing its end, but an unexpected event delayed it for a while.

However, from her experience, she doesn't mind the delay, nor does she feel like she's lost anything.

How can we only see giving and losing in matters of the heart? It's about exchanging warmth and receiving warmth in return.

Gu Huai nodded, realizing that no matter how much he cherished the atmosphere of being with this woman, it couldn't continue indefinitely.

"Okay, take care on the road. Thank you for everything lately."

There were many opportunities to express my gratitude, but I didn't get to say them. In short, she should understand how I feel.

The woman smiled and glanced at Gu Huai. "You're thanking me like this now, so you won't need my help anymore?"

Gu Huai also laughed. He shook his head, his eyes clear and his expression sincere.

"I'll be relying on you from now on."

"Oh dear, what a troublesome man. How useless he is, always needing my help!"

She feigned a look of disgust, but her tone sounded like a joke, so Gu Huai naturally didn't feel hurt, even though he was such a sensitive person.

So he started joking too.

"There's nothing I can do, I'm just such a useless man, so let me rely on him for a little while."

Looking at Gu Huai's smiling face, Cai Yan suddenly pointed at him.

"?" Gu Huai asked, puzzled.

she said softly.

"Since you've resorted to being cute, there's nothing I can do. Men who know how to be cute always have the best lives. Goodbye!"

"goodbye."

The woman walked further and further into the darkness until she boarded a taxi.

Gu Huai scratched his head.

"Did I act cute? Why did you drink so much!"

In the darkness, he walked toward his own direction, the wind blowing in his face.

He hugged himself with both arms, mimicking how Cai Yan had hugged him earlier, but without the warmth he felt then.

This wasn't the coldest day, but it felt like the warmest.
