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

Chapter 160 Control (First Update!)

I spent my lunch break in the library tutoring Lin Jiang.

Lin Jiang's learning ability is quite outstanding. After Gu Huai helped her resolve most of her distractions, her true learning level was revealed. In any case, she is better than me.

You need not only numerical data, but also two sets of experience points to improve your performance.

Lin Jiang, on the other hand, has no skills whatsoever, and piano sheet music can't help her learn equations.

There were still a few classes in the afternoon, so Gu Huai arrived at the classroom just a few minutes before class started.

Cai Yan was not present, presumably because she was sticking close to Lulu, looking like a young couple who had parted ways.

Perhaps due to the existence of simulation predictions, while improving the settlement, it also seems to lengthen the time for each simulation. However, this doesn't have much impact on Gu Huai. In reality, it's only one night anyway, and the adult world is indeed not as interesting as his youthful days.

"Hey, bro."

A voice came from his direction, and Gu Huai turned his head in surprise, only to see a boy wearing small glasses, with a clumsy side-swept fringe and slightly greasy hair, looking at him with a smile.

"calls me?"

"Yes, your name is Gu Huai, right? You were in Class 3 before?"

"Ah you are?"

It seemed the other party knew him beforehand. Gu Huai had no idea he was so well-known now, with his previous classes being known to everyone.

"Oh, my name is Fang Boyu, hello."

They were quite polite in their greetings.
"Hello. Did you call me for something?"

Gu Huai asked curiously.

Fang Boyu pushed up his glasses and moved a little closer to Gu Huai.

"I heard you and Cai Yan are dating?"

"Who said that?"

Gu Huai was stunned. Why are guys so gossipy these days? He hadn't done anything with Cai Yan, at most they just talked a little more. Could that be considered dating?

Fang Boyu blinked. "That's what everyone in our class is saying. They say Su Yiming broke up with his girlfriend specifically for Cai Yan, and tried to compete with you for her, but failed."

"What kind of unofficial history is this? It's utter nonsense."

"Really? Then why is he looking at you like that?"

"Ok?"

Following Fang Boyu's gaze, Gu Huai looked down at a spot under the podium where Su Yiming was in a rather contorted position.

He placed his hands on the table, seemingly lying face down on it, but secretly turned his head to peek at me from a rather difficult angle, his eyes filled with resentment, like a vengeful spirit from the abyss.

The moment Su Yiming noticed Gu Huai's gaze coming his way, he immediately realized something and quickly turned his head away.

"Where did this KGB come from?"

Fang Boyu said with emotion, "I used to be in the same class as Su Yiming. That guy loved to show off in our class, like a total show-off. To make him feel this frustrated, you really have some skills!"

Gu Huai explained helplessly, "Don't listen to those rumors. Cai Yan and I are just good friends and classmates. There is absolutely no romantic relationship between us."

"Oh, I get it~ It means we haven't officially started a relationship yet, but we're both enjoying that ambiguous atmosphere, right?"

"How do you know so much?"

"The scumbags online all like this kind of guy."

"I'm not a jerk, sigh."

Gu Huai thought to himself, he had just escaped being an unknown nobody, how did he become a scumbag now? The label was being put on him way too quickly.

"It's okay, buddy. You're so handsome, even if you're not now, you will be sooner or later."

he said with a smile.

Gu Huai narrowed his eyes. "Me, handsome?"

"Yes, although they are just a little bit behind me, it's still pretty good."

The rare moment of being complimented on my looks completely vanished because of this comment.

I really envy people who can be blindly confident.

"That's awesome."

Gu Huai sighed sincerely.

"By the way, we'll be classmates from now on, shall we add each other on QQ?"

The other party took the initiative to invite him, and Gu Huai didn't know what he had that attracted him to be friends. However, although this person's words were not very reliable, he didn't seem to have any bad intentions, so Gu Huai naturally wouldn't refuse.

The two added each other on QQ.

Just as the bell rang, Cai Yan returned to the classroom, passed by him, and sat down in her seat.

The neatly tied ponytail bounced down in front of her and returned to calm.

The faint scent of hair seemed to confirm the other person's tangible presence.

Gu Huai was calmly lost in thought when he suddenly noticed the other person's shoulder twitch.

The teacher just walked in from the classroom door. Before Gu Huai could react, he saw a notebook suddenly appear on his desk.

That's a very common type of exercise book that schools issue.

It not only appeared abruptly, but it was also open, and there was a line of handwriting on it that clearly did not belong to it.

Are you going out tonight?

hiss.

Passing notes secretly during class!
This kind of thing is not new, but it is indeed very strange to Gu Huai. After all, no girl has ever secretly passed him a notebook with messages written on it during his school years.

I often end up being the one who calls out to me from in front or behind, hands me a notebook, and tells me, "Pass it to me, don't peek."

My buddy used to be a messenger, a transit point, a damn newbie station!
Now you're the recipient?
His complicated feelings quickly subsided, and Gu Huai thought for a moment before writing it down: "Let's give it a try, we should be able to get out. What, you don't want to get out?"

Then, taking advantage of the moment when the teacher turned around to write on the blackboard, I extended the notebook from the side of the desk, gently patted her arm, and then let go when I felt the firm grip of her hand on the notebook.

After finishing this small task—which, for some reason, should have been quite ordinary—Gu Huai inexplicably felt a thrill of sneaking around and doing something naughty. But as soon as he turned his gaze slightly, he saw Fang Boyu beside him looking at him with an ambiguous expression. Clearly, this guy had seen everything.

However, Gu Huai wasn't embarrassed at all. He had done it, so what did it matter if others saw it or not? Whether it was a simulation or real life, it made him understand one thing.

No matter what you do or how well you do it, there will always be people talking about it, praising or criticizing you.

Will it really affect you in any way? I'm not someone who's easily influenced anymore.

At that moment, Fang Boyu stealthily turned to the side and whispered, "Buy me a Coke, or I'll tell the teacher you two passed notes."

Gu Huai: ?
He turned his head and lowered his voice to reply, "Okay, I'll invite you to the restroom after class."

Fang Boyu turned around in alarm. "Brother, I was just kidding."

"hey-hey."

Gu Huai was smiling, but he didn't say he was joking.

Fang Boyu shrank back and sat down, "You haven't seen me today!"

The notebook was returned very quickly.

I didn't say I wouldn't go; I was just afraid you'd stand me up.

Would a girl like Cai Yan be afraid of being stood up? It's not a matter of whether she has the guts, but rather, who would be willing to do that?

Gu Huai thought for a moment and wrote down a sentence.

Only a fool would waste such an opportunity.

When the message was sent back, Cai Yan remained still and followed the instructions without revealing anything.

Then, when the teacher was writing on the blackboard, she opened her notebook and looked down slightly.

The next moment, Gu Huai saw the other person's face suddenly heat up, just as he had hoped.

"boom."

She slammed the notebook shut, almost forcefully, then turned around and glared at herself.

And what about that wretched boy?
He simply winked at the girl in an unusually obedient manner.

What's so despicable about this person is that they always suddenly say inexplicable things, making people uneasy, but they never take responsibility for cleaning up the mess!

There are no physical education classes on Saturdays, just like a tricycle doesn't have rearview mirrors.

The only reason I could bear the afternoon classes was because there was no evening self-study session.

The moment school ended, the crowd naturally scattered like birds and beasts.

Everyone was calling out to their friends, boys making plans to go online, girls going shopping together—every class had plenty. It's just that this kind of atmosphere was definitely less prevalent in the experimental class.

Gu Huai even saw Su Yiming pretend to walk up to the podium with his textbook and talk to the teacher who was eager to go home.

"Teacher Liang, I don't quite understand this big question."

"Why did you have to ask now of all times? And it's such a big question, oh my god!"

"."

Seeing Cai Yan pick up her schoolbag, Gu Huai once again took the initiative.

What time was it in the evening?

he asks.

Cai Yan rolled her eyes at Gu Huai, annoyed. "7:30. That should be enough time for you to eat and change, right?"

"That's enough, I'll be going now. See you later."

After saying that, Gu Huai slung his backpack over his shoulder and disappeared cleanly and neatly.

Cai Yan stared blankly in the direction the other person had disappeared. Wasn't that a bit too abrupt?! Didn't he have anything else to say? For example, could he explain what he meant by his previous so-called 'opportunity'?
hateful!

When Gu Huai took the relatively early bus back to his neighborhood and arrived at his doorstep.

He looked at the door that had previously evoked so many emotions, but this time, without any hesitation or emotional outburst, he simply took out his key and opened the door.

Upon entering, I saw my parents sitting at the dining table, where food was already prepared, so there seemed to be no need to wait.

The expressions on their faces seemed familiar; they were the silent solemnity before a public trial.

In the past, Gu Huai's legs would have already started trembling by this time.

Having already anticipated all possible scenarios and come to a complete understanding of reality after each incident, the boy simply tossed his schoolbag onto the sofa.

Then, before his father, who was frowning as if about to unleash a storm, could speak, he took a piece of paper out of his bag and placed it in front of him.

Then I sat down, picked up my chopsticks, and started eating.

"What are you doing?"

Gu Jiang spoke in an unfriendly tone.

Gu Huai glanced at him, then calmly said, "You can look at the results of this class placement exam first, I'll eat first. By the way, the scores and the rankings for the whole grade are all on there. If there's nothing else, I'll eat first, otherwise it'll get cold."

"."

This behavior, which was tantamount to directly ignoring Gu Jiang's authority, was met with his gaze falling on the report card.

I saw several large, blood-red characters.

[Ranked 20th in the grade.]

Suddenly, he deflated like a punctured balloon.

The anger that had just surged up seemed to have been shattered by a gentle punch.

He glanced at Gu Huai, then at the report card, and then at his wife.

"This...this...this..."
