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

Chapter 214 Little Brother, You Smell So Good~ (Third Update!)

In fact, Gu Huai was an optimistic person in the early stages of his studies.

I yearn to grow, to progress, and to meet new friends and interesting people, to do things that others find interesting. But life is full of reminders that I shouldn't be too optimistic; I'm just an ordinary person, as ordinary as can be.

The simple, even old, furniture, compared to the shabby clothes and shoes of his well-off classmates, and the fact that there were hardly any people left at the bus stop at the entrance of his own community, made it seem somewhat 'remote'.

All of this simply illustrates that Gu Huai wasn't born sensitive, fragile, or insecure, nor was he simply transformed into that personality by one or two setbacks. It was a subtle influence from his upbringing. Standing now at the door of this nearly empty bus, Gu Huai admires his former self.

He had no depression, no bipolar disorder, and didn't even choose a high floor for a leap of faith. At his most unrestrained and crazy, he even thought about standing on the top floor of a bustling shopping mall, making others think he was going to jump, and then starting to urinate after everyone had gathered.

Well, the thought that this was supposed to be his life made Gu Huai tremble with anger and cold.

But for an East Asian child, not being born in a vocational school toilet doesn't mean the world is ending in disaster, right?

"crunch-"

The bus door slowly opened in front of him, and Gu Huai calmly stepped off the bus.

Gu Huai was wondering whether he should go to the convenience store or go home to get some sleep. At 28 years old, it was really hard to keep up with the schedule after a whole day of high school classes.

When I was in school, I couldn't get up in the morning and felt sleepy in class, but I could fall asleep as soon as I got home. I used to think it was because I had good sleep quality, but after I entered the workforce, I realized that it wasn't like that at all.

High school is pure hypnosis, not Hogwarts, but better than a magic school.

However, Gu Huai soon didn't need to make a choice, because as soon as he got off the bus, before he even left the bus stop where advertisements were playing on a loop, he saw a beautiful woman straddling an electric scooter, one foot on the ground and the other on the front footrest.

She was wearing a loose, dark green trench coat over a fitted, black turtleneck sweater.

He tucked the helmet under his arm, his long hair fluttering slightly in the cold wind.

Where did this female rider come from? Or did I just order takeout?

"Ouch~~~ It's so cold, come here quickly!"

Okay, Mom.

"Ok?"

Gu Huai walked over curiously, "What's wrong with you?"

Lu Yuqing smiled brightly, remaining optimistic. It felt like even if the sky were to fall on her, she could still reach out and shout, "I think I still have some fuel left! Can you save me?"

"I'm not working today, so I'm waiting for you here."

She said with a smile.

Gu Huai felt confused. "Why are you waiting for me if you're not going to work? How can you wait in this awful weather?"

Actually, I wanted to ask her how long she had been waiting, but then I thought better of it. If she hadn't been waiting long, it would have been pointless. If she had waited too long, I would have felt guilty for no reason, since it wasn't like I had made the appointment with her beforehand.

So why wait for yourself?
"I'll treat you to hot pot after I get paid."

A young girl, dressed in a turtleneck sweater and high-waisted jeans, with a dark green trench coat that gave her a Western cowboy vibe, stood in the winter night wind.

"That's very kind of you. But isn't the timing a bit odd?"

"Strange? What's strange about it? When the nightlife is just beginning, there's plenty of time to sleep if you're dead."

She was very cool, but Gu Huai just wanted to roll his eyes.

"It makes us look like two homeless people. I also have a home to go back to, okay? Shouldn't a high school student be going home at this time?"

"Oh, I almost forgot you have a home."

Is this human talk?
But Lu Yuqing quickly laughed, "It's okay, just think of it as running away from home."

That's not even human language!

Gu Huai said irritably, "Then I have to tell my family. Otherwise they'll think I've had an accident outside."

"That's great, your parents really care about you."

She said so.

Gu Huai was too lazy to refute her words, but the slight envy in her tone didn't seem fake.

It seems that mentioning one's parents in front of her is something that should make one feel guilty, but one can pretend to be oblivious, and as long as one has no morals, one will not be morally coerced.

Gu Huai sent a message to his family, roughly saying it was a classmate's birthday and he would eat out and then go home.

My recent grades have left my two "geniuses" at home with nowhere to find fault. At most, they'll just give me a few words of criticism, but if that doesn't work, they'll let it go.

The main problem is that Gu Huai's rebellion and the beginning of his personality have left them somewhat at a loss, and they haven't yet found a way to deal with it.

"Okay, where should we eat?"

Gu Huai looked at Lu Yuqing.

"I know a pretty good hot pot restaurant, and I always go there to eat on my birthday."

"Is it your birthday today?"

Gu Huai was about to get into the car when he heard this sentence and couldn't help but ask.

I didn't prepare a gift myself. What a mess this is. I'll come empty-handed and leave empty-handed. How embarrassing!
Then let's eat less meat. Fortunately, Lu Yuqing smiled and shook her head, "My birthday is in the summer. If it were my birthday, I would definitely tell you a day in advance."

"why?"

"Otherwise, where would you find the time to prepare a gift?"

"Damn, you want all the gifts from high school students? You're just exploiting them."

"Hahaha, can you stop talking nonsense? It's freezing, come on up!"

That sounded strange, but thankfully Lu Yuqing was sitting in the car, not on the kang (a heated brick bed).

Gu Huai carefully and cautiously got on the electric scooter, trying his best to keep his distance from the other person and not to put his hands on the other person's waist unless necessary.

Yes, the number one modern man who strictly adheres to male virtues.

"Let's go~"

Lu Yuqing started the electric car, and the two of them drove through the streets of Jicheng at around 10 a.m.

"By the way, why did you suddenly decide to treat me to hot pot?"

The boy's voice was mixed with the sound of the wind, but fortunately his voice was clear, his Mandarin was standard, and the car wasn't driving too fast, so Lu Yuqing could hear him clearly.

The woman in front was carried by the wind, constantly spreading her scent behind her. It wasn't the smell of perfume, but simply the residue of shower gel and shampoo.

But perhaps because of Lu Yuqing's charm, these ordinary fragrances were imbued with a unique color at this moment.

My nose is itchy, and my heart is itchy even more.

"It's nothing. Ji Cheng's old friends aren't very interesting, and I always want to find someone to celebrate when I get paid. Besides, didn't you help me just a couple of days ago? This is just a special way of thanking you."

"A hot pot meal solved so many of your worries, I feel like I'm getting the short end of the stick?"

"Hahaha, so what do you want? Should I treat you to a foot massage?"

"Are you even human? I'm still a high school student!" Gu Huai said righteously, after all, he had firmly refused when Xu Cheng took him to those kinds of places. "But I can consider it if you're the one providing the service."

"Tsk tsk tsk, a high school student, huh? You dare to flirt with me?"

"I was talking about a foot massage, not a 'special service.' What are you thinking? Is this considered harassment?"

"I said I'd treat you to a bath and massage, that was perfectly normal, I didn't mention any special services, and you still say you didn't think too much about it?"

Oh no.

They were caught off guard and got outmaneuvered.

After a moment of silence, Lu Yuqing's laughter grew even more unrestrained. Jicheng was a small place with hardly anyone on the streets; if someone heard it, they'd probably be terrified. And so, an urban legend began to circulate in some corner of the city: people could hear a female ghost's laughter on the street at night.

Two people sharing an electric scooter, even if it's a man and a woman, is quite normal and not considered a serious romantic relationship in this day and age. Moreover, Lu Yuqing has a rather carefree personality and probably sees Gu Huai as a younger brother, so she wouldn't overthink it.

until.

"squeak--"

Seeing that it couldn't get through the traffic lights, it was forced to brake suddenly.

Gu Huai was still recalling the tips and tricks Xu Wenxi had taught him for taking photos for online influencers when he was suddenly thrown forward.

I'm not Superman, after all. I can't just open Newton's coffin and tell him: Your first law doesn't work for me, hahaha!

"boom."

Suddenly, Gu Huai bumped into the other person's back, but luckily his hands reached out in time.

Instead of pressing down on the other person's waist, he passed by from the side and pressed down in a moment of panic, only to come into contact with two soft mounds.

It wasn't anything strange; it was the other person's thigh. His chest was almost completely pressed against the other person's back.

Oops.

Gu Huai immediately felt that although it was unintentional and not his responsibility, he had still offended the other party to some extent.

As soon as he let go, he quickly moved away, afraid of causing further misunderstandings.

Lu Yuqing, who was ahead, stumbled forward and turned her head slowly, her bright eyes under the night sky fixed on Gu Huai.

"Uh," Gu Huai opened his mouth to explain.

She gave a wicked smile.

"Little brother, nice pecs."

Is that your line?! Damn, I've run into a female hooligan.

Gu Huai even suspected that she had deliberately braked suddenly!
