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

Chapter 229

Chapter 229 Ten Years (Second Update~)

Actually, Cai Yan also had team building activities when she first arrived, which was probably one of her ways of actively socializing.

However, her aura was too strong, and her sense of aloofness was too heavy, so the effect was not good. At most, it just let everyone know what kind of person she is.

This time, however, the team-building activity that Gu Huai took the initiative to host had a different effect.

With Gu Huai's proactive help—well, actually out of sheer folly—he skillfully pushed Cai Yan into the 'enemy' camp.

For example, after drawing an eight for the first time, he was oblivious to his fate, making no attempt to hide it, and even waving his hand dismissively.

"Are kings and nobles born with a special destiny? Brothers and sisters, it's time! Team Leader Cai, drink!"

Gu Huai even saw the restless look in Lao Lin's and Yang Xinyue's eyes.

Just like how they get excited when they see a teacher make a fool of themselves in school, the more pressure someone puts on them, the more they want to see that person embarrass themselves.

Sigh, those who play mind games are all dirty. Of course, I'm perfectly clean, as long as you don't check my friend's phone browsing history.

Unexpectedly, this restless impulse was easily thwarted by Cai Yan after she drank a cup of wine and turned to the next eight.

"Gu Huai, drink." This was something Gu Huai had expected, but there was more to it than that.

She looked as if she had suddenly remembered something, "Oh right, I'll treat you to coffee tomorrow."

It seemed like an insignificant remark, or a sudden act of kindness.

But Gu Huai reacted instantly, his eyes widening.

"Isn't it necessary?"

The next moment, Lao Lin and Yang Xinyue erupted in near-boiling cheers.

"Long live Team Leader Cai!"

"Don't worry, we've already found out who the traitor in Group Two is."

"That's right, the traitor has already jumped out on his own."

"."

Gu Huai noticed that pairs of eyes were looking at him in a tacit understanding.

The sinister glint in his eyes was self-evident; he was like the only loyal minister in a corrupt and decadent dynasty.

They're all treacherous officials! All of them!

"Don't look at me like that, or my face will turn as red as an apple."

The group exchanged knowing smiles and stopped looking at Gu Huai.

But after going around in circles, his name was mentioned repeatedly, just like a key point before the college entrance examination.

Later on, Gu Huai even had to stand up to drink beer.

Actually, I was in great shape and showed no signs of being drunk at all; I was just slightly tipsy. But since it was a carbonated wheat juice, my stomach was really bloated.

It seems those times when my alcohol tolerance was low, I really wasn't in good shape. There's nothing I can do; when a man says he's not in good shape, he's not in good shape. How can you say he can't do it?

However, these people weren't the kind who would just stir up trouble without considering their own safety; they stopped after drinking about two cases.

The ladies present had all drunk quite a bit, and to Gu Huai's surprise, Sister Guo's alcohol tolerance was truly impressive; she had been drinking for so long and her face hadn't even turned red.

Gu Huai was curious, "Sister Guo can drink so much?"

Sister Guo smiled and said, "It's alright, it's alright. I could drink a little when I was younger, but not so much now."

Old Lin over there said irritably, "You have no idea, I went to your Sister Guo's house for drinks during the New Year. Her husband couldn't even finish two liang of baijiu (a type of Chinese liquor). Then she said she wanted to drink with me, and I thought it was only for a woman to drink, so I had a glass. But guess what? I didn't even go home that day. They said that after I finished drinking, I said I was going to the toilet, and I just fell asleep hugging her toilet!"

Gu Huai gave a thumbs up, "Women are just as capable as men."

Sister Guo was in great shape, while Yang Xinyue's face was flushed, but she spoke clearly, so she didn't seem to have drunk too much. And even if she had, it wouldn't have mattered to her. The blame should fall on Old Lin; the war wasn't caused by him.

Just around
"are you OK?"

Cai Yan was indeed very lucky at the beginning and hardly drank any alcohol, but her luck ran out after a few rounds. She often drew sevens and nines, and with Gu Huai pushing her into the group, the lack of boundaries meant that people dared to force her to drink.

In the end, she and Gu Huai became targets of the same scheme.

Furthermore, Gu Huai noticed that, perhaps because of the bloating caused by beer, Cai Yan later even substituted it with cocktails.

While mixing drinks may not cause bloating, it has a strong aftereffect and can easily lead to a hangover.

Looking at her now, Cai Yan's cheeks were already very red. She was nestled on the sofa next to Gu Huai, staring straight ahead in a fixed direction.

She seemed not to hear what Gu Huai was saying.

Has this kid gotten drunk and gone mad?
You were so excited to join forces with others in attacking us, but now that you've reached the other side, it means you've surrendered?
"Hello? Team Leader? Team Leader Cai?"

Gu Huai reached out and waved his hand in front of her eyes, trying to attract her attention.

"Snapped!"

Then she slapped him away with her hand, and gave Gu Huai a sweet look.

That look in his eyes was unlike anything I'd ever seen before.

It is hazy and dreamlike, even revealing a touch of innocent naivety.

"Hate."

she muttered.

hiss.

I have to say, she's kind of cute.

Can she get drunk every day?

I didn't see Lulu like this at her wedding karaoke last time. Could it be because of the beer and cocktails today? Or is the atmosphere so good that she was able to relax?
Gu Huai was about to say something when he suddenly sensed that something was wrong.

Turned his head and looked.

Not far away, Old Lin and Sister Guo were already watching them with sinister smiles.

Yang Xinyue, who was a little further away, even picked up some snacks from the table and started munching on them, staring intently at them, as if the more she looked, the more enthusiastic she became about eating.

Are you watching TV dramas from here?
No, you've become a fan, haven't you?

However, they dared not be too obvious or go too far. After all, when it comes to matters between men and women, staying in the ambiguous stage is the most beautiful. Establishing a real relationship may lead to all sorts of problems. The only painful thing is that ambiguity always makes people suffer.

Old Lin chuckled and shook his head, sighing, "Old Gu and our team leader are really good-looking."

Sister Guo sighed, "It reminds me of when I was young, sigh."

Gu Huai certainly couldn't let this strange atmosphere continue, so he ignored Cai Yan, who was slightly confused at the moment.

He said to everyone, "Has everyone had enough to drink? It's getting late."

Old Lin immediately grabbed his coat and stood up. "I understand, I understand. Oh, it's just that Team Leader Cai and I don't go that way."

Sister Guo also stood up, "What a coincidence, my husband is here to pick me up, and it's not on my way anyway."

Yang Xinyue thought for a moment, "I think I'm on par with the team leader."

"Xiao Yang, you've had too much to drink. It's time to go home."

"Yes, go to bed early. You're still growing."

Sister Guo and Lao Lin each took one side of Yang Xinyue, who was still not satisfied, and practically lifted her up from her seat.

Yang Xinyue's eyes widened. "What? What kind of body am I? I'm already 24! Hey, hey, hey, I haven't finished my popcorn chicken yet, waaaaah!"

The other colleagues also found excuses to leave quickly, as if Gu Huai had some kind of contagious disease.

Everyone left quickly and consciously.

Gu Huai stood there with his hands on his hips, looking down helplessly at Cai Yan, who was still on the sofa.

The woman, who was usually refined, aloof, and imposing, now obediently stood with her legs together, and then, as if sensing something, slightly raised her head.

Her cheeks, flushed from drinking, turned to Gu Huai.

"Why did they leave?"

Gu Huai's heart softened instantly. Why are you holding it in? Is that your voice? Turn off the voice changer!

"Because it's over, they've all gone home."

"Oh."

Cai Yan gave an "oh," then lowered her head again, staring at the phone in her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

Gu Huai naturally couldn't just stand there and wait for the other party to 'resurrect'.

He thought for a moment, then squatted down and looked at Cai Yan, who was looking down.

"Shall we go home too?"

Cai Yan slightly raised her head and glanced at Gu Huai.

She didn't answer immediately, but slowly stretched out her hands.

Gu Huai didn't know what she was planning to do; after all, you can't predict what a drunk person will do next.

However, Gu Huai did not dodge the hands that were reaching out to him.

Those hands drew closer and closer.

Until it was pressed against his face, squeezing from both sides towards the middle.

Ugh.

Hopefully, this isn't two hands, but rather... well, that's too much. Even Cai Yan's figure isn't that exaggerated.

She pressed her face down like that, and then looked from her mouth to her nose and finally to her eyes.

What did she see through her own eyes?

This inexplicable thought came to mind.

Until she slowly uttered a few words.

"Gu Huai."

"I'm here."

"You're great."

she said softly.

great?

What do you mean by suddenly saying this at this time? Is it because you're good at drinking? Or... no, you don't know either, did you miss a few episodes, buddy?

Gu Huai continued to gaze at her, and she looked back at herself.

no solution anymore.

Gu Huai continued.

"Ok, I know."

"hey-hey."

Suddenly, Cai Yan chuckled sheepishly.

This moment is utterly pure, like crystal.

"What are you laughing at?"

Gu Huai was also amused.

Then she said.

"Ten years have passed, and you're here with me again."

Gu Huai's smile froze.
