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

Do you remember Chapter 66? (Please vote!)

Naturally, Lin Jiang, young, beautiful, and with an outstanding temperament, handed her the bag.

Gu Huai didn't even react. He only saw Song Xiyu's shocked and incredulous expression, and even the young man who had expressed his dissatisfaction for a moment seemed to stare blankly.

Then, Lin Jiang naturally took out a pack of tissues from Gu Huai's bag and wiped her washed hands.

The movement was so natural, as if it had been rehearsed thousands of times, as if this scenario had happened to her and him countless times.

"Is this your friend?"

After wiping her hands, Lin Jiang looked up and seemed to realize that there were other people around.

Gu Huai had no idea what she was up to, but he nodded in agreement, "Yeah, I ran into a classmate from university."

Song Xiyu was stunned for a moment. She tried her best to make her smile look less stiff and her tone less exaggerated, but her obvious curiosity could no longer be suppressed.

"Gu Huai, who is this...?"

Gu Huai was having a bit of a headache. How should he introduce her? He couldn't just say she was his girlfriend to save face. But why should he try to save face in front of Song Xiyu?
He was thinking this when he hadn't even had a chance to speak.

She felt a warm sensation in her forearm, and when she turned her head, she saw Lin Jiang holding her forearm easily and naturally, then smiling at Song Xiyu and the unknown young man in front of her.

"Excuse me, we have another date to go, so we'll be leaving now."

Without giving Song Xiyu time to react, he turned to Gu Huai and asked, "What do you think?"

Gu Huai nodded without hesitation, then looked at Song Xiyu with a slightly apologetic expression.

"Sorry, we have to go now. We'll talk again next time."

And so, almost arm in arm with Gu Huai, the elegant young woman disappeared with him at the end of the passage.

Song Xiyu was still looking in the direction the two had left, seemingly still in shock and unable to recover.

The man next to him was getting a little annoyed.

"Xiyu, how can you say I'm just your friend?"

It's like the relationship can't be proven, which makes them uneasy.

But to his surprise, Song Xiyu slowly raised her head and looked at him, "We just had a meal and watched a movie, what else can we be but friends?"

The man was stunned, not expecting Song Xiyu's attitude to be so sharp.

He was at a loss.

But Song Xiyu laughed.

"Many men have invited me to dinner, and although I don't accept every invitation, I haven't had many boyfriends. Relationships need to be developed gradually, don't you think?"

The man immediately nodded hastily, "You're right, I was too impatient, I'm sorry."

"It's okay. I quite like the lipstick you gave me, but the shade isn't quite right for me."

"Then I'll get you a new shade next time."

"It's too much trouble, but it's not necessary."

"It's nothing, it's just a small amount of money to me!"

Turning around, Song Xiyu subtly rolled her eyes. She thought men were just so boring, always trying to put on a show even when they're not. But if that weren't the case, why did everyone say men were so easy to fool? They could get so much without even establishing a relationship or paying any extra price.

Compared to the boring man in front of her, who was so obvious that he was just a pretty face, Song Xiyu's interest in another person was now skyrocketing.

He was dressed plainly, not particularly handsome, and his demeanor was not outstanding.

How can he have such a beautiful girlfriend?

It also showed hostility towards oneself.
It's kind of interesting.

Gu Huai, are you hiding something from your old classmate?

---

In the car.

"boom!"

The door slammed shut with an odd sound, and Gu Huai, who had just fastened his seatbelt, saw Lin Jiang get in.

However, she was acting strangely. Instead of starting the car immediately, she crossed her arms over her ample chest, stared straight ahead with a stern face, and her pink lips were slightly upturned.

I don't really want to be presumptuous, but her current attitude makes it seem like—I'm angry, hurry up and comfort me!
No, what is she angry about? Is it because of Song Xiyu?

Gu Huai thought for a moment and asked in a low voice.

"Are you OK?"

"Something happened."

Her feigned indifference was distinctly different from Cai Yan's naturally aloof and elegant demeanor. Lin Jiang's indifference was noticeably endearing.

This made Gu Huai relax a little, and a slight smile appeared on his face.

"Who made you angry?"

How do you know this kind of woman?

She turned her face, looking at him with a questioning expression. Gu Huai blinked. "Didn't I say we were college classmates? I ran into you at the college reunion a few days ago and got to know you all again. I didn't expect to run into you again this time."

Lin Jiang squinted and scrutinized the honest-looking man.

"No other relationship? Didn't she say she invited you to drink?"

"They did call, but I didn't go."

"Such a beautiful woman invited you out for drinks and you didn't go? Drinking, a man and a woman alone together, a lot of things could happen."

Hearing her sarcastic tone, Gu Huai couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Stop messing with me. First, I don't go out drinking with just anyone. Second..."

"What's second?"

"Secondly, even if she is pretty, she's nowhere near as pretty as you, right?"

"Cut~"

Lin Jiang gave a soft hum, then started the car, stepped on the gas, and slowly drove away from the parking lot.

She didn't forget to remind Gu Huai while driving.

"You should be careful with this kind of woman."

"why?"

"Do you think men and women with ordinary relationships would eat together and watch movies together? But she insisted on introducing that man to you as just a friend. Obviously, she's preparing you as a backup option. She doesn't want you to misunderstand that she's already taken. She wants you to feel that you still have a chance to catch up with her."

Gu Huai looked ahead, thought for a moment, and said.

"What you said about ignoring the rest for now, didn't we still go out to eat and watch a movie together?"

"squeak--!"

It was a brake that was barely better than an emergency stop, meaning the car wasn't going very fast, but Gu Huai still stumbled and was startled.

"what happened?"

"A cat darted past, didn't you see it?"

Gu Huai hesitated and turned his head, only to see Lin Jiang clenching her teeth and her face flushed red.

He really wanted to say that he didn't actually see any Hakimi trying to become a cat pancake.

But after thinking about it, for my own safety...

He nodded devoutly, "I see it, it's huge."

"Good~"

Lin Jiang smiled with satisfaction, her dimples reappearing.

And don't forget to add a sentence.

"Of course, I'm talking about cats being well-behaved."

How can a cat be well-behaved? If cats were obedient, there wouldn't be so many cat pie on the streets in the early morning.

However, Lin Jiang's mood improved considerably during the drive, and she even hummed along to the music playing in the car occasionally.

It has to be said that her humming is indeed beautiful, like a kitten tickling your heart, an indescribable feeling.

"Just drop me off at the roadside; there are still buses running at this time."

Looking at the road, Gu Huai gently reminded Lin Jiang, who was driving quietly beside him.

Lin Jiang replied without turning her head, "What are you talking about? Of course I'm going to take you home."

"It doesn't have to be so troublesome."

At this moment, it wasn't some ridiculous inferiority complex at play, or the fear that the other person would find out what kind of cheap rental he was living in. It was simply that the act of asking someone to take him home made him feel somewhat lost.

There's always a sense of trepidation and unworthiness when experiencing something you've never done before.

“What’s the trouble? It’s not like I’m carrying you home, I’m just taking you home.”

"OK then."

Gu Huai leaned back in his chair, no longer forcing himself. It seemed that spending so much time with Lin Jiang made him feel this way; he couldn't help but enjoy the comfortable atmosphere she created. Wasn't she afraid of spoiling him? What if he became even more demanding?
Just as Gu Huai was gazing at the night view outside the car window, lost in thought, he suddenly heard her call his name.

"Gu Huai."

"Ok?"

There's something I really want to ask you.

"whats the matter?"

Do you remember when you offered to tutor me?
