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

Chapter 79 What to smell?

Does Gu Huai want to die?
Of course I don't want to. Otherwise, having lived such a miserable life, I wouldn't be willing to commit suicide.

There was no other reason, nor was it a wishful thinking that the world could still be a better place; it was simply out of cowardice and fear of death.

It's still a case of being forced into something, but the good thing is that these cars with automatic transmissions aren't difficult to drive. There's no clutch; you just need to use the accelerator and brake.

However, Gu Huai drove very slowly and tried his best to abide by every traffic rule.

Although Cai Yan turned on the car stereo to play music, trying to make the atmosphere as relaxed as possible.

But Gu Huai still asked with some unease.

"Am I driving too slowly?"

Cai Yan closed her eyes but wasn't actually asleep; she answered calmly.

"That's why I made you come out so early."

"As expected of Team Leader Cai, he even thought of that."

While saying this, she was thinking to herself, "How mean and vicious you are, just like you."

Others are arrogant and prejudiced, but Cai Yan is both arrogant and prejudiced.

"But you should be glad we came out at this time."

"why?"

"Because at least there isn't much traffic now in the middle of the day, and no one will be honking their horn behind you like they're trying to kill you."

Gu Huai thought of something and said with a smile, "The traffic in the provincial capital is notoriously bad. People are always getting angry on the road. I really can't win an argument with them."

This is not an exaggeration. Many people have complained about this issue in the provincial capital online. Even Gu Huai, who only takes the bus, often sees bus drivers suddenly opening the window and sticking their heads out to curse people in the morning.

From initial fear to later acceptance, Gu Huai gradually lost his fascination with this so-called first-tier metropolis.

"It's okay, if we can't win the argument, we'll just beat him to a pulp."

"Isn't it necessary?"

"Of course there's no need, it just feels better to say it out loud. Do you want to be like someone who always keeps their emotions bottled up inside, sulking and torturing themselves?"

"Why are you making sarcastic remarks about me out of the blue?"

Gu Huai naturally understood the other party's unspoken meaning; he wanted to say that he was gradually getting rid of that self that was causing internal strife.

But it seems pointless to say it out loud; it lacks persuasiveness.

Cai Yan, with her eyes closed, couldn't help but smile before slowly opening them.

Gu Huai certainly wouldn't have gone to see it while driving, but he saw the scene, which resembled Sleeping Beauty waking up, through the rearview mirror.

Her crystal-clear eyes reflected the sunlight outside the car window, like the shimmering surface of a lake rippling slightly in the wind on a peaceful day.

"Because you are like a donkey."

"What do you mean?"

Donkey? The first thing that came to Gu Huai's mind when she thought of a donkey was "dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground." The second thing that came to mind was a certain organ of the donkey—she really had a good eye for people.

However, Cai Yan clearly had no idea what Gu Huai was thinking, she said.

“If no one is watching you or giving you a lecture, you won’t know what to do and you’ll lack motivation. You need to be properly disciplined before you can do anything worthwhile.”

"I know Team Leader Cai's words aren't pleasant, but this is just too awful!"

Have I really become that awful?
no?
"So what? You hit me?"

Cai Yan blinked and looked at Gu Huai.

Gu Huai snorted lightly, "I don't have time right now."

"Oh ho, so you're desperate? Then park your car properly, and let's see how you manage to teach me a lesson."

I'm almost thirty years old, of course I wouldn't do something so childish.

Gu Huai shook his head, "I'll let you off the hook today."

"Tch, all pretentious."

Cai Yan hummed softly.

He was shaking his head and humming a song playing from the stereo in the passenger seat.

I don't know why I was in such a good mood, and I just kept singing.

"Clap."

The woman's high heels had fallen under the chair, but she didn't bother to pick them up. Instead, she bent her legs and placed her feet, encased in black stockings, on the chair.

To be honest, the flesh color peeking out from under the toes, seemingly about to break through the black stockings, was quite alluring.

Of course, Gu Huai was more concerned about whether it would have a smell.

So he wrinkled his nose.

"..." "What are you smelling? Are you a pervert?"

Cai Yan noticed immediately, squinting as she stared at Gu Huai.

He felt guilty for a moment when his little tricks were discovered, but Gu Huai quickly realized why he was guilty.
He immediately sat up straight.

"Who's the pervert? You're so unhygienic, you even took your shoes off!"

"So what? My car is comfortable like this."

Although her cheeks were already showing obvious signs of warming up, she just couldn't bring herself to back down in front of this man.

"But I'm in the car now, and I'm driving. I'm not worried about the smell affecting me."

"Where's the smell?"

"Yes, I can smell it, it smells sour."

"I'll fuck you!!"

Cai Yan sat up in annoyance.

Before Gu Huai could even feel smug about this small act of revenge, he caught a glimpse of a foot wrapped in black stockings reaching out towards him.

"It smells? And it's sour? Smell it! There's no smell!"

"Don't do anything reckless! I'm driving!"

Good heavens, where can you find something like this?
Actually, whether her leg is extended or not doesn't really matter, since it doesn't really smell. The problem is that when she lifts her leg like that, if you glance over out of the corner of your eye, it's easy to follow the veins of those black stockings and go deeper into the area.

Isn't this seduction?! Does she really look like she has great self-control?
"Humph."

With a slightly flushed face, Cai Yan withdrew her foot. Perhaps influenced by Gu Huai's words, she picked up her shoes and put them back on.

She turned her head to look out the window, muttering resentfully.

"If you don't accept the reward, you'll regret it."

"Nobody treats this as a reward, okay? I'm not a perverted foot fetishist."

How is foot fetishism perverted? Of course, this is just to make it seem like I'm not a foot fetishist.

"Hmph, who knows? But it's too late to regret it now; there won't be another chance like this."

"I've already said I'm not a foot fetishist!"

Gu Huai looked ahead and thought to himself, "Really, it's one thing to make me drive, but to do something like this that's affecting me? Be careful, or I might actually step on the gas and we'll all explode!"
However, the little incidents and noises along the way don't seem to warrant taking them seriously.

Once things calmed down, Gu Huai found himself actually enjoying this way of spending time with Cai Yan.

Because it makes me forget the gap between myself and Cai Yan now, as if the two of us really live in the same world, and are not so far apart.

It was quiet, with Jay Chou's "All the Way North" playing from the speakers.

But before them was a sun-drenched road.

The woman next to him leaned back in her chair, looking out the window, and suddenly spoke.

"By the way, no matter what, you have to drive me home tonight, I don't have a driver's license."

Gu Huai was taken aback. "Isn't your brother coming to pick you up?"

"He just messaged me saying he has something to do tonight."

Generally speaking, Gu Huai would refuse such a suggestion, since it would be troublesome and seem to offer no benefit. In the past, he might have already said his refusal before even thinking it through.

but now.

Gu Huai remained silent for a moment, then nodded and said.

"it is good."

"Hmm? You didn't even give a reason to refuse?"

Even Cai Yan found it strange.

Looking ahead, Gu Huai, still gripping the steering wheel tightly without the slightest relaxation, smiled and answered.

"If you get caught driving without a license, who will protect me at the company after that?"

"Tch, glib."

As she said this, Cai Yan secretly glanced at Gu Huai's profile out of the corner of her eye.

This man, who seemed to have gradually shed his gloom and dejection, looked much more so than on the first day of their reunion.

It seems to be being thoroughly bathed by the sunlight right now.

Even in a daze.
