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

Chapter 163: How can it not be considered a kiss? (Fourth update, please vote!)

Did someone message you?

"No."

"So you were looking at your phone the whole time?"

"It's nothing, just a little thing, it'll be fine soon."

Gu Huai put down his phone and looked at Cai Yan, whose emotions were still easily swayed.

Cai Yan rolled her eyes at Gu Huai, "Pretending to be an adult again, and now you have something to say."

Gu Huai looked at the other person with amusement, "I really have something to say. By the way, do you really mean it's only for a short while you're staying with me?"

"What do you mean?"

Cai Yan asked curiously.

Gu Huai thought for a moment and said, "I just wanted to ask what's the latest time you need to go back?"

Cai Yan's eyes widened. "What are you trying to do? Girls shouldn't come home too late!"

Gu Huai really wanted to answer with a single word, but then he thought better of it; it would be too much. He had indeed changed, but he wasn't a pervert.

"It won't be too late, is before 11 o'clock okay?"

he asked.

Cai Yan's eyes became even stranger. "It's eleven o'clock, that's quite late. What do you want to do? I'm just keeping you company for a while because you don't have any friends right now, so I'm just being kind. Don't think anything strange."

"I assure you it's not something strange, it's just too early and pointless, right?"

Hearing Gu Huai say this, Cai Yan thought about it seriously for a moment, and then solemnly replied, "No later than 11 o'clock. Otherwise, my parents will really worry."

"Okay, I understand. Let's go."

"What do you want to do?"

Gu Huai looked at the other person as if it were a matter of course, "Go out for a stroll, don't you want to know what's going on outside? Hanging out in Maimen doesn't count as a date."

"This wasn't a date to begin with! Wait for me!"

Cai Yan got up irritably and followed the increasingly strange-looking boy out the door.

The bustling square was packed with people, a sea of ​​heads stretching as far as the eye could see.

In front of many people, there was a simple stage that had been set up, with some writing and drawing on a cloth that looked like an advertisement.

Let us love each other healthily and passionately this cold winter!

"What kind of weird slogan is this?"

Standing next to Gu Huai, Cai Yan, who was also quite tall, frowned. For some reason, she felt a little awkward when she saw the word "love" next to Gu Huai.

Gu Huai glanced at it and said, "It seems to be some kind of couples' activity."

Just then, a young man who looked like a host took the microphone and spoke on stage.

"This winter is so cold, so our mall is holding this event. It's a simple event: couples are welcome to come up on stage together. The winning couple will receive a pair of the latest Apple earphones! The rules are also simple: I'll count to ten, and we'll only count ten couples. Registration will close when the countdown ends, or when we have ten couples. Anyone want to participate?"

"So generous, giving away headphones?"

Gu Huai sighed.

Cai Yan smiled and said, "To be honest, I'm thinking of buying these headphones. I heard that the noise cancellation is really good this generation, but they're quite expensive."

"You want to buy?"

Gu Huai blinked.

"Yes, but it's quite expensive. I'll have to mention it to my dad later."

She smiled innocently, completely unaware of what was about to happen.

such as.

"Actually, if you want something, you don't necessarily have to buy it."

"What else can you do? You can't just rob people, can you? This isn't America, where you can get freebies every day."

In the past, Gu Huai would easily accept this kind of joke, but this time he didn't because he had more important things to do.

He laughed and said, "That's not what I meant. If you want it, isn't this a good opportunity?"

"Huh? What?" Cai Yan's gaze shifted. She hadn't even thought about this event before, because she didn't think Gu Huai would participate in some random event, and the two of them weren't a couple, so they didn't meet the requirements.

However, it seems that the other party's meaning is not distorted.

She immediately understood, then stared wide-eyed at Gu Huai, her cheeks burning again.

"Are you kidding me?! That's a couples' activity, how can we participate?"

The host on stage was already counting down.

"Begin! Ten!"

Before the reading had even begun, couples were already rushing onto the stage, causing the security personnel to tense up.

Gu Huai looked at Cai Yan, who was still rambling on and on about her own, and reached out to grab the girl's wrist.

Of course, through the sleeve.

But it still startled Cai Yan. "W-what are you doing!"

"There's no time to explain, I'll take you to get the earphones."

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Gu Huai grabbed Cai Yan and rushed toward the stage. Along the way, there were many people, some rushing toward the stage, and some simply watching the excitement.

Cai Yan was in a state of utter confusion, and she didn't know why she had started walking after him, but she kept saying, "We're not a couple! You, you, you, you..."

"Just pretend, since you're a couple anyway, and couples don't need a certificate."

"But...but..."

"Six! There are still three spots left!!"

Even if it's just pretending, I still don't know what I'm supposed to do! What if it's something really cliché like making couples kiss and seeing who can kiss the longest? I could never do something like that.

Absolutely not! !
"There are no 'buts'. If the activity isn't suitable, we can just withdraw. Come on, hurry up."

"I... I just... I can't do anything with you! Slow down!"

"Okay! Registration is closed, and we've already filled ten pairs. Please don't climb any higher; there will be other events in the future, so don't be too sad~"

Before the deadline, Gu Huai successfully dragged Cai Yan onto the stage.

Suddenly, under the cold night sky, the once spacious stage was now crowded with ten couples and a single host.

Instead of starting the event immediately, the host took the microphone and began interviewing people from left to right.

"First of all, let's confirm if you're a couple. You two, look over here."

"What should we do? We need to confirm!"

Cai Yan stood nervously beside Gu Huai, seemingly afraid of being exposed, but she knew in her heart that it wasn't just because of that.

Gu Huai reassured the other person, "It's alright, let's see how to confirm it first. This kind of thing is hard to confirm, since there's no evidence yet."

Wow! A French kiss right away? Now I have to believe it!

The host said with an exaggerated laugh.

Meanwhile, the two youngest men and women on the stage in the corner stared wide-eyed as the first couple kissed each other right in front of everyone!

"Is it that exciting?"

Looking at Cai Yan's expression next to her, her face was practically spitting fire.

"Didn't you say you could fool me?!" Cai Yan felt like the sky had fallen.

She felt that even if they were a real couple, she wouldn't make such a bold move in front of so many people, let alone if she was just pretending!
How could I lose my first kiss under such circumstances?

I'll feel incredibly ashamed whenever I think about it!
Gu Huai quickly comforted the other person, "Not every couple is like that, maybe the first couple was just a bit wild."

then
"Another French kiss! Is it lasting even longer than the first couple?!"

"Wow, biting directly into a strawberry! But we still need to be careful, this might be a bit dangerous, everyone please be careful."

"This is a wedding ring? Let me check, it's a matching one! Yes, it's approved!"

"What? Your child is right here in the audience? Come on, let your child call you 'Dad' or 'Mom' and you'll pass."

"."

The result is that a comparison between two pairs is convincing, and a comparison between two pairs is explosive.

Cai Yan's face was practically bleeding; she bit her lip and stared intently at Gu Huai.

She now feels that this despicable boy did it on purpose, deliberately dragging her into this situation, using the crowd to put her in a difficult position, hoping that she would find it hard to refuse and taking advantage of her.

But before this thought could fully develop, she saw Gu Huai turn around, his expression even more frightened than her own.

"Damn, Jicheng is such a small place, how come the people here are so wild? Let's get out of here quickly, we really can't hold on any longer."

Cai Yan was momentarily dazed. The sudden tightening of her wrist reminded her of her birthday, when this boy had pulled her along in the same way and then gone through fire and water for her.

So how could he be such a despicable person? He is indeed safe and reliable most of the time, but he is also human and can make small mistakes.

To blame the other party for doing so would be to expose one's own prejudice.

He is still Gu Huai; the one who is in chaos is himself.

Gu Huai was unaware of Cai Yan's thoughts. He grabbed her, wanting to leave the stage, which was already so crowded that it could hardly accommodate the two of them.

But at that moment, the host appeared in front of the two, smiling as he looked at them who hadn't had time to leave.

Wow! What a young couple! The girl is beautiful, and the boy is handsome. They're such a perfect match!

Cai Yan remained silent, but Gu Huai wanted to clarify that the two were not a couple.

Bringing them up here was indeed a simplistic approach; I hadn't expected these people to be so wild.

This wasn't something he could do voluntarily. After all, without the other person's permission, and since they weren't actually a couple, doing these intimate things on his own would only be offensive and completely disrespectful. He didn't want Cai Yan to think that way.

He didn't intend to use any despicable methods to force her to comply because of the atmosphere, so that he could take advantage of her.

This isn't being proactive and bold; it's downright vulgar and despicable.

To reiterate, I have indeed changed, but I haven't become abnormal.

"What do you all think is the best way for such a beautiful couple to prove their relationship?"

The crowd below was full of jeering and jeers.

"Kiss me! Kiss me!"

"French kiss! A direct French kiss!"

"Ten minutes of French kissing! Damn, where did I find such a beautiful girlfriend!"

"Haha, everyone is so enthusiastic, but we still need to respect the wishes of the parties involved. How do you two want to prove that you are a couple?"

Gu Huai didn't dare to look at Cai Yan at this moment, guessing that she already thought it was his trick.

Sometimes Cai Yan is easy to understand, but that doesn't mean she's stupid. If I do nothing, it will be seen as tacit agreement in her eyes if I do something unusual like taking her on stage.

That would mean that you had planned this all along, and that you were despicable and vile.

So Gu Huai quickly said, "Sorry, we came up here just to joke around, we're not actually here."

"Wait, I didn't hear you clearly. Please explain it more clearly."

The host actually grabbed Gu Huai's arm and held the microphone to his mouth.

The audience consisted of unfamiliar faces. Whether or not I felt nervous under the gaze of so many people was no longer the most important thing at that moment.

To say in front of so many people that they were just joking, and then step down like that, is really...
But forget it.

It's better to be embarrassed than to be seen as a despicable guy in her eyes.

So he almost closed his eyes and spoke into the microphone.

"Well, I'd like to explain."

The moment when everything is about to be revealed.

He was mentally prepared for being watched and laughed at by so many people.

Sudden.

A hand appeared in front of me and touched my cheek precisely.

That wasn't a sudden slap.

Instead, he forcefully turned his face upside down.

Gu Huai was forced to look away, and then he saw Cai Yan's face, which was extremely rosy and her eyes were filled with tears.

She's like a princess or elf from a fairy tale.

Her eyes were especially captivating.

Before anyone knew what was going on, Cai Yan's right hand also shot out.

The sleeves fell down.

He saw that the other person was wearing it on their right hand—a familiar silver iris bracelet.

wait
Then came an overwhelming and unreasonable force that pulled his head down completely.

He watched as his face and the other person's face drew infinitely closer.

Seems to realize something.

At this moment, his mind went blank, and he could no longer think about why she did this.

Was it too late for me to speak up? Had the other person already been swept up in the atmosphere?
And could she really think of herself as that kind of despicable person?
They were unable to think.

Because his lips felt the touch.

That was her thumb pressing against her lips, in that moment when he was at a loss.

The girl's breath pressed against him intensely, and he finally understood her plan.

Her lips pressed against her thumb.

He pressed his own lips against her thumb.

He could not feel the touch of her lips, but at this moment his mind was blank, the atmosphere was chaotic, and the whole world was filled with her sweet scent.

"Wow!!!"

"Ouch!!!"

"They kissed!!"

The cheers below were deafening.

Gu Huai's blank eyes caught sight of her trembling eyelashes.

What do you want him to do so that he doesn't mistake this moment for a kiss?
The world has fallen, and light has died.

His world is ever-changing.
