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

Chapter 227 The old me is dead! (Fourth update, please vote!)
Gu Huai was still getting used to working alongside Cai Yan all morning, feeling like there was a pair of eyes staring at him for no reason.

Is something wrong with our ancestral graves? It's eerie.

However, by the afternoon, Gu Huai had adapted much better and was able to calmly play on his phone even though he knew Cai Yan was watching him.

Nonsense, there's not that much work to do every day.
If you do all the work yourself, what are the people below supposed to do? Leaders need to have a broad perspective, even if they are just junior leaders.

He would glance at his phone, and occasionally, when Cai Yan wasn't paying attention, he would shift his gaze from the phone to her, just to feast his eyes.

Absolutely wonderful.

Gu Huai never imagined that going to work could be this enjoyable.

Peeking and looking openly are completely different things.

Just like when he was in school, Gu Huai still clearly remembered that one summer, he was dizzy and lightheaded in class. He turned his head casually and saw the girl next to him bending down to pick up a pen from the ground.

The summer school uniform was quite cool, and the other person's collar was very loose. A glimpse of white light was revealed when he bent over, which made Gu Huai blush.

I felt instantly refreshed.

Later, no matter what movies I watched or what witty remarks I heard, nothing left as deep an impression as that one glance.

Otherwise, why would domestically produced candid and self-portrait videos always be more popular than those from Europe and America?

This desk is a bit inconvenient; why is the bottom blocked? I can't even see her legs. What's the point of living if I can't see Yanbao's black stockings? I might as well die and be reborn as a pair of high heels in my next life.

Doing office work occasionally, letting my mind wander occasionally, and occasionally scrolling through my phone, time flies by.

Soon it was time to leave work, and the sounds of Lao Lin and others chatting happily could be heard outside, like the last class before the end of high school.

Seeing that it was almost time, Gu Huai packed his things and stood up to look at Cai Yan, who was still in her seat, seemingly doing something.

"It's almost time to leave work, do you want to tidy up?"

"So fast?"

Cai Yan didn't seem to have reacted at all.

"You're really engrossed in your work; you've completely lost track of time."

Cai Yan rolled her eyes at Gu Huai, annoyed. "Do you think everyone is like you?"

Thinking about it carefully, I really can't understand the feeling of a good student paying attention in class. All I ever felt in class was sleepiness. No matter which class it was, I was always sleepy. The biggest struggle of my student days was fighting against my own sleepiness.

It seems that those students who get good grades and listen attentively in class during their school years will become the most dedicated workhorses in the future.

"Okay, okay, you're the most special person in the world. I'm all ready, I'll be waiting for you outside."

Gu Huai didn't think too much about it, casually left a comment, and walked out.

Normally, someone would never say "I'm waiting for you outside" out loud. It makes them seem overly self-conscious and ridiculous. Why would you wait for someone? They're not yours; you're just being delusional.

But the situation is different now. After all, this is a 'team building' event, and she had promised herself beforehand. How should I put it? She's officially licensed to work.

"I've already booked the seats in advance. Just give me my name when you get there."

In the work group, Gu Huai said this to his colleagues in Group Two.

Someone immediately laughed and said, "He's definitely a leader now, his demeanor is completely different, and he's made such thorough arrangements."

"Haha, I am so lucky to be treated to a meal by Lao Gu in this lifetime."

Gu Huai knew these people didn't mean any harm and were just joking, so he laughed along. "If you've eaten my treat, you'll only be able to work for me from now on. Don't be a scumbag or a heartbreaker."

"It's not just a buddy relationship, it's that he's too possessive, it's gotten a bit ambiguous."

"Okay, okay, stop fooling around, let's go, let's go, I'm so hungry I'm about to faint."

People gradually left the working group.

As Lao Lin was leaving, he gave Gu Huai a knowing look and said, "Tsk tsk tsk, waiting for the team leader on purpose?"

Gu Huai now knows that you can't keep weakly denying things about Lao Lin, otherwise he'll take advantage of you.

He immediately smiled and looked at Lao Lin, saying, "Yes, guess what the team leader and I talked about in the office all day?"

"What? Tell me more."

Old Lin immediately became interested. At his age, hobbies are limited: fishing, gossip, and reading current affairs. This kind of little office secret right next door was like having a kitten scratching your leg—it was so intriguing!

Gu Huai smiled wickedly, "There are a lot of old members in Group Two. I was thinking of sending you to help out in the warehouse department to optimize the age structure of our group."

"Holy crap! Are you even human, Gu Huai?!"

What kind of place is the warehouse department? Not only are there few female colleagues, but they don't do much work either. The male colleagues who go there not only have to count the goods, but also have to physically move them. They move dozens of boxes at a time; it's simply not a place for a human to live!

Gu Huai laughed heartily, "That's just how the leadership is, you'll get used to it."

"Dude, it's not like I'm an old man, I'm still thinking about having a second child, you absolutely have to..."

"Then you'd better behave yourself and stop joking around with me and Team Leader Cai, understand, Xiao Lin?"

"understand."

Watching Old Lin leave with lingering fear, Gu Huai let out a satisfied sigh. Is this the smell of power? Mmm~ So fragrant. Like a young woman's neck, or a young girl's feet... wait, my persona doesn't include a foot fetish.

"You really think you can take a trivial matter as a mandate?"

A mocking voice rang out from behind. Turning around, I saw Cai Yan standing not far away, already packed and holding her bag.

Gu Huai smiled and explained, "No, I just asked Lao Lin to stop joking about us. After all, it's just a man and a woman alone in an office. If we don't stop it, rumors will really spread."

Cai Yan, who was carrying a bag and already wearing a cotton-padded coat, glanced at Gu Huai.

"You do know your limits."

Is this a compliment? That's rare.

Gu Huai felt even more relieved. "Of course, who knows better than me how to behave and who understands boundaries?"

Then he saw Cai Yan's slightly amused gaze, "Does 'discretion and sense of boundaries' mean sneaking glances at your beautiful boss while looking at your phone during work?"

"."

Not sisters.

You knew all along? If you knew, why didn't you say so sooner! No, thank goodness you didn't.

Since saying it out loud would mean watching it less often, and I'd be ridiculed anyway, I might as well watch it a few more times to make sure I don't lose out.

"Have you become mute? Suddenly stopped talking? Do you not like talking?"

Cai Yan squinted, enjoying Gu Huai's awkward expression.

Gu Huai looked at the other person helplessly, "How could I, unintentionally, be such a lecherous person?"

"Hehe, then you should move out tomorrow, so I won't get annoyed just seeing you."

"That won't do. If I leave here, what kind of deputy team leader am I? What's the difference between me and Lao Lin!"

"ill."

Cai Yan gave a light hum, though her tone was unfriendly, her movements were quite pleasant, and she even turned around and hummed a tune.

It's a pity, it's not my style.

I followed Cai Yan to the elevator. Because we were a little late, there weren't many people in the elevator at that time.

Just before the elevator doors were about to close, they suddenly opened in the opposite direction. Gu Huai knew that someone had pressed a button. Who was it that was even better at timing than him?
Slightly dissatisfied, she leaned back and stood next to Cai Yan.

A figure quickly entered Gu Huai's line of sight.

He glanced at her subconsciously but was slightly stunned. Wasn't that the beautiful woman from earlier in the day?

The woman paused, glanced at Gu Huai indifferently, then quickly turned to face the elevator door, watching it slowly close.

She didn't show anything unusual, and her attitude wasn't special. She didn't seem to treat Gu Huai any differently because he had helped her.

We were just familiar strangers in the company.

Gu Huai didn't think much of it, but his waist felt a little itchy. Ouch! And it hurts a bit too.

Turning his head, he saw Cai Yan slowly letting go of his hand, looking up at him with her head slightly raised.

She didn't speak, but slightly opened her mouth to show that it wasn't pig liver, and made the shape of her mouth.

'Isn't it beautiful?'

She spoke silently.

Gu Huai didn't open his mouth, but took out his phone right under Cai Yan's nose.

This person actually ignored Yan?!
She was asking him a question, and he was playing on his phone? Cai Yanzheng was so angry that she was about to stomp on his foot with the heel of her high heel.

He had already put away his phone, almost simultaneously, in the next moment.

Cai Yan clearly felt the vibration of her phone. She didn't react immediately, but subconsciously opened her phone to take a look.

It was a message from the jerk next to me.

You look absolutely stunning today.

Take a sip.

A subtle electric current seemed to spread from the phone, like a leak, passing through my hand, then spreading to my limbs, and finally converging on my cheek.

He put away his phone and turned his head away.

Gu Huai looked at the other person's rosy ears and sneered.

Beautiful? Who else is in my eyes?

The old Gu Huai is dead, now
Little Yanbao, hold him tight.
