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

Chapter 244 My Eyes Can't Open (Second Update!)
Lin Jiang's singing was certainly moving.

However, when she sings under such lights at such a time, what she sings or how well she sings doesn't really matter.

The enthusiastic, even overly enthusiastic, reactions below fully demonstrate everything.

It must be said that, as expected of someone from a music academy, the entire audience joined in the sing-along during the climax of the song.

Gu Huai, standing to the side, seemed to have lost all hearing of Lin Jiang's voice, but it didn't matter. After all, the atmosphere was what mattered in this kind of place.

Besides, isn't that how young people are? They find joy in simple things and then spread that joy to others.

If you are a middle-aged person with a gloomy personality who can't stand other people's laughter and finds all noise noisy, then you should simply stay away from such places.

Ugh.

What's wrong with being middle-aged?! Someone once said that life is just beginning at thirty!
Gu Huai was thinking about it so much that he started to breathe on himself.

Just as I was thinking this, Lin Jiang's performance finally came to an end.

As expected, it received applause and cheers from the young people in the audience.

Sigh, a woman like Lin Jiang, who is both sweet and beautiful, and also has a touch of intelligence, is incredibly alluring to these hormone-fueled men. Gu Huai even faintly heard a few cries of "Mom!" from the crowd.

"Teacher Lin shouldn't be a teacher, she should be a celebrity."

Gu Huai overheard He Xinxin's sigh beside him. He knew little about this girl and had no particular feelings for her. He also had no intention of having any future interaction with her. However, he wasn't so lacking in basic politeness and courtesy.

He thought for a moment, then just smiled and said, "It's fine as long as she does what she wants to do, nothing else matters."

He Xinxin glanced at Gu Huai. This man didn't seem particularly excited, as if he had witnessed Lin Jiang's charm many times before.

Wouldn't they feel a sense of insecurity because of such a dazzling woman, making them aware of the gap between them?
Or that feeling of unworthiness?
Suddenly, she felt a pang of envy and jealousy towards this trust and mutual understanding.

Just as Lin Jiang was about to step down from the stage, a commotion arose from the group of excited, drunk men, instantly attracting the attention of the two men.

He Xinxin turned her head and heard someone shouting in the crowd.

"Get out of the way! I need to give Teacher Lin flowers!"

"Holy crap! Don't step on my foot!"

Hahaha, whose phone got stepped on!

"Teacher Lin, you are my god!!"

What kind of stuff?

Gu Huai was stunned. Are male college students these days so enviable in their mental state? Is there no one in school who cares?
"He's delivering flowers!" He Xinxin noticed a boy struggling to emerge from the crowd, pulling out a bouquet that looked like it was from a lucky opening flower basket someone had given him at the entrance. In the blink of an eye, Gu Huai, who was not far away, rushed out as well.

He Xinxin understands male college students these days; they like to create mischief and have fun.

Especially for those who study art, their motto is that a person can not live, but cannot be without life.

So, after drinking, he jokingly suggested sending flowers to Lin Jiang, just to have some fun and do something everyone enjoys. It had nothing to do with pursuing anything or having any other intentions.

Why did this person rush out? What was he doing?

He Xinxin had hoped to see something even more entertaining, like Gu Huai getting jealous and impulsively leading to a chaotic brawl in someone's newly opened bar due to a misunderstanding. Then the police would arrive, and Mr. Zhang's new bar would be a complete mess from day one, littered with chicken feathers.

Mr. Zhang was also very flustered. He thought that seeing everyone so excited and the atmosphere so good, he could make a video and post it online to make everyone drool. But there seemed to be signs of things getting out of control, which made him very worried.

Depend on.

do not.

Dude, it's your first day of business! There's no need to cause such a huge commotion! If the police show up on your first day, and given how close your bar is to the school, if this news gets out, it's basically a death sentence!
Who would want to come to a bar that gets raided by the police on its very first day of operation? We're all good students who love learning and have shed our low-level interests; we would never do anything illegal or criminal.

Mr. Zhang almost dashed out in one stride.

Rather than knowing anything about fire safety, he was more instinctively alert to such situations.

result.

The arrow had been launched halfway when Gu Huai, who had rushed out, calmly and easily pulled back the arrow that had just left the bowstring.

The boy who seemed to be rushing quickly with the bouquet was easily pulled by Gu Huai, and almost fell into Gu Huai's arms like a little figurine.

The atmosphere suddenly became intense.

Mr. Zhang watched helplessly as he wondered whether he should retract his starting position.
However, things changed quickly. The scenario he was most worried about did not happen. Gu Huai simply smiled and took the bouquet from the other person, put down the small figurine, and then neatly gave the flowers to Lin Jiang, who had not yet left the stage. Lin Jiang accepted it with a smile, and the two left the vicinity of the stage covered by spotlights.

Wang Yue, Chen Mo, and Zhou Xiaoyu on the stage looked at each other in bewilderment.

What did we just see?

"I thought someone was about to rush over. Was it Brother Gu?"

"Nonsense, besides Gu Huai, have you ever seen Teacher Lin accept flowers from anyone else? Don't you remember how Zhou Xian, that show-off, was treated last time?"

"Ms. Harlin is truly the woman with the most sense of boundaries I've ever met. Normally, male teachers would offer to bring her food or drinks, but she would refuse, but she would be willing to buy them for her classmates."

"Hahaha, Zhou Xiaoyu, now you know how much of a jerk you are, right?"

"Get lost."

Zhou Xiaoyu thought to herself, "What's so special about my tea skills? The one you admire is the real tea master, okay?"

However, I won't say anything about it for the sake of band unity, since she hasn't learned Kasuga Kage yet.

"Ugh, should we go for a drink? I'm so tired, I feel more tired than the bassist."

Chen Mo shook her head.

Wang Yue laughed, "Then you can go pick up the takeout next time you rehearse."

"Friend, the bassist joke is the worst joke ever!"

The group returned to their seats. Tong Jiaming, who hadn't seen much of Lin Jiang's performance, also came back. He Xinxin was chatting with someone; as the band's leader and lead singer, and the most popular one, she was perfectly at home performing at the bar near the school gate. Gu Huai didn't know exactly what had happened either. When he returned, he saw the melancholy prince constantly drinking, refusing to answer when asked if he was in a bad mood.

Chen Mo and Zhou Xiaoyu were still chatting enthusiastically when someone tried to take advantage of the atmosphere to toast Lin Jiang. The two girls sensibly helped to block them, not giving Gu Huai any chance to make a move.

The two were still chatting when they said, "The boys in the audience were almost going crazy just now."

"Yeah, it's terrifying. It feels like a zombie outbreak is nothing compared to what I'm worried about. I'm afraid someone might not be able to resist rushing up."

"Teacher Lin is just too charming."

Lin Jiang sipped her beer, setting aside the flowers that weren't actually bought, but rather 'stolen' from the flower basket by the door. Gu Huai hadn't deliberately stolen them either; they were just a spoils he'd taken to avoid embarrassing Lin Jiang, so they weren't anything particularly important.

"Was my singing okay?"

Lin Jiang asked softly.

Gu Huai smiled and said, "It's more than just okay. Didn't you see those boys were almost going crazy?"

"how about you?"

Lin Jiang asked with a smile.

Gu Huai thought to himself, "Am I not a boy? Oh, so I'm not a little boy after all."

Sigh, that's what growing up is like—it's both painful and exhilarating.

He chuckled. "I'm practically your bodyguard. Didn't you notice I stopped everyone just now?"

"Pfft. You're pretty quick."

"Of course." Gu Huai proudly raised his face.

Then Lin Jiang muttered, "It's just not very clean."

Upon hearing this, Gu Huai immediately broke down.

"I never roll the dice!"

"Hahaha, you've confessed without being asked?"

Lin Jiang knew he was just joking.

However, he became interested and picked up the dice next to him. "How about we have a few rounds of one-on-one?"

What's coming? Some repressed kids might not be able to resist asking this question at this moment, but Gu Huai is not.

He picked up another die, saying, "Sure, it's rare to see you so interested."

Actually, Lin Jiang never spoils the fun; she just doesn't like playing childish games.

Lin Jiang's dice skills were naturally better than Gu Huai's, and after a few rounds, Gu Huai had drunk quite a bit.

Why doesn't this woman give in to me at all? Sigh, when will men ever stand up for themselves? *Gurgle*

"Om-"

Suddenly, my phone, which was on the table, vibrated.

When Gu Huai opened it, he was surprised to find it was a WeChat message from Xu Wenxi.

【What are you doing? 】

She asked.

Xu Wenxi often chatted with him at night, and Gu Huai was used to it. After thinking for a moment, he replied.

[Sleeping.]

As she continued rolling the dice, Lin Jiang saw Gu Huai's reply, but she only glanced at it and didn't ask directly.

"I'm super!"

Gu Huai glanced at the dice: six sixes, a pure leopard!
I got one too? Hopefully I won't get hit by a car tomorrow.

"Om-"

Then the phone vibrated again.

Xu Wenxi: [Going to bed so early? That's not like you.]

Gu Huai quickly replied: [Yeah, I'm probably really tired today because I had a lot of work. I'm so sleepy, I can barely keep my eyes open. I think I'll go to sleep now.]

No matter who it is, they all have to give me a wide berth in front of six pure leopards!
Even if it's the end of the world, you'll have to wait until I finish this game!
Just as Gu Huai was about to put on an act and pretend that he had terrible dice, "Buzz—"

My phone vibrated again.

No, is she really that unable to sleep and so eager to chat with me?

Or is it just a simple "goodnight"?
Gu Huai thought about it and opened his phone without paying much attention until he saw the content of this message—

Six sixes, that's pretty impressive.

How could it not be amazing, sis!

Just as he was about to type, Gu Huai suddenly remembered something, and his face froze.

Look back.

Holding her phone, Xu Wenxi stood behind her with a smile, her face pale from the light shone on the phone screen.
