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

Chapter 125 I Did Nothing Wrong (Please Vote!)
There are some of the most secret corners that Gu Huai has never revealed to anyone.

Even Cai Yan, who had helped him a great deal, Lin Jiang, who seemed to be able to see through him easily, and even Xu Cheng, who would not have lived to this day without him, did not know.

That's Gu Huai's family situation.

These things were secrets he carefully hid, secrets even more hidden than his wounds.

Whenever someone questions Gu Huai, asking why he seems so pretentious, so sensitive, or so insecure, Gu Huai actually knows the reasons to some extent, but he just can't bring himself to say them.

It's like every time I face him, I never try to say a word.

That mountain called Father was like an insurmountable wall, and even touching it felt like an offense.

Now, Gu Huai has decided to no longer submit to its authority.

I no longer blame everything on myself. I used to even wonder if it was really because of me that my parents seemed so tired and had such a hard time living, so it seemed understandable that I became a way to vent.

It turns out that I had deprived myself of my rights as a normal person.

Before something arrived, it turned out that I had chosen to give up first.

This is a betrayal of oneself, and this weakness ultimately makes one deserve it.

So at that moment, he reached out and caught the slap his father was about to deliver, but it hurt even more than if it had actually hit his face.

But he also knew clearly that from this moment on, the high wall of power called fatherhood collapsed.

He's not afraid, and he doesn't want to be afraid anymore.

"you"

At this moment, Gu Jiang suddenly didn't know what to say, as if his mind had short-circuited. He couldn't even speak because of this unprecedented and unthinkable situation.

If he dares to talk back, then he should be prepared to be taught a lesson.

Because he had no reason to talk back; he was his own son.

He earns everything he eats, wears, and lives in through his own efforts. What reason does he have to question his own education, or even talk back?

But now, not only have they uttered such 'outrageous' words, they've even tried to stop me?

Even as he watched Gu Huai grow taller day by day, he never felt that Gu Huai had grown up much. Because he was the one who should understand him and bear his anger.

It's only natural that he should bear the brunt of my anger, given all the troubles and pressures I've experienced because of him!

Before Gu Jiang could react, the door was suddenly pushed open.

A woman in pajamas, looking slightly haggard, appeared at the bedroom door, then looked at the two of them in disbelief.

She almost went crazy on the spot.

"Gu Huai!! Are you insane? You laid a hand on your father? How could I have given birth to such a beast!"

More familiar words appeared, words that made Gu Huai feel breathless and even suffocated.

Is it because of the simulation? That's why all those words, expressions, and actions that live in the shadows of one's heart suddenly appear all at once.

Is it to make myself break down quickly?
That's why they came so irrationally, almost without any warning, all of them overwhelming us.

His mother rushed to his side, pushing and pulling him.

It sounded like a heart-wrenching roar, as if judging one's own guilt in this way.

"Let go! You unfilial son, let go!!!"

Gu Huai felt his blood congealing, and some of his senses had become numb.

He looked at the two people in front of him, so familiar, yet so strange.

He released Gu Jiang's hand before Gu Jiang hesitated whether to take action now and rebuild the prestige he had just lost.

The boy, who seemed to have already cried all his tears, spoke inexplicably calmly.

"I did very well on this placement test, and I'll probably get into the best experimental class in the whole school."

"."

Neither of the parents expected the boy to say such things at this moment.

What they usually hope to see has now become the most awkward and embarrassing thing for them.

The next moment, Gu Huai looked up at them. "I will be very sensible and hardworking without you telling me, and I will live up to my own life. I just hope you will stop scolding me and hitting me in the future."

He tried his best to regain all his tenderness and to prevent the relationship from becoming irreversible.

But all that came in front of me was a single sentence.

"So what if you did well on the exam? Even if you did well on the college entrance exam, you're still my son, and how I discipline you is my business!"

Gu Huai looked at Gu Jiang.

"Before I'm your son, I'm first and foremost a human being. Right?"

"."

Gu Jiang and Sun Limin seemed to realize only then that this boy was different from usual. He was excessively calm, as calm as a stranger.

His former timidity had vanished, and he seemed to finally realize how tall he had grown.

Gu Huai didn't go to the room; he changed his shoes again and walked towards the door.

"Where are you going, Gu Huai? Your parents are doing this for your own good. We just want you to be more sensible. We just don't want you to follow in our footsteps. This is our experience. How could your parents ever harm you?"

The woman who had just been hysterical because of her actions suddenly changed her demeanor, becoming earnest and persuasive, as if she had countless unspeakable secrets that the young man wouldn't understand even if she told him, so she could only pour her heart and soul into it.

But Gu Huai will no longer be fooled by such illusions.

His swollen eyes looked at his mother.

The woman who would stay by his side in the hospital all night when he was a sickly child was also the woman who, when he was in elementary school, wanted to prove to his classmates that he could afford spicy strips and asked for a dollar, would slap Gu Huai in front of everyone.

“I know you don’t want to hurt me, but I don’t want to be the reason for your venting anymore, or the reason you judge me to be the biggest reason why my life is so hard. I didn’t beg you to give birth to me. Your lives are the result of your own choices. I did nothing wrong. I really did nothing wrong.”

No one could know how powerless Gu Huai felt when he said, "I did nothing wrong."

So much so that the moment those words were spoken, tears welled up in my eyes again, which I thought had been dry.

He could only lift his backpack, open the door again, and say without turning back.

"Don't worry, I'll go to class tomorrow."

"boom."

Done.

Gu Huai slammed the door shut and quickly went downstairs. He didn't know where he was going; he had completely forgotten that this was a simulation.

All he knew was to go as far away as possible, and to try not to let anyone hear him sobbing.

He hadn't completely forgotten that he wasn't an eighteen-year-old child, but rather Gu Huai, who was twenty-eight years old.

He is a man who should be open and honest and stop shedding tears.

Even with the door closed, you could still hear Gu Jiang's delayed roar coming from inside.

"Let him go! I'll pretend I never had this son!"

When he finally left the stairwell and walked outside the empty, seemingly deserted residential area, he found himself in a different place.

He finally lost control of his emotions and squatted down by the roadside, forcefully covering his eyes.

The tears at this moment were not for regret, grievance, or joy.

He just felt from the bottom of his heart that the Gu Huai of the past, the Gu Huai who was about to be forgotten because of his changes, the Gu Huai who seemed to have never appeared in people's memories, was so pitiful.

He is so pitiful.

His hysteria seemed to be the power and will to resist that erupted only when he was in dire straits.

Ultimately, he arrived at an answer that was enough to console him for the 28 years of his life.

"I am right."

"I've never been wrong."
