My Romance Simulation with Them

[If there could only be one genius in the world of literature, then it would undoubtedly be 'Chizuka Takina'—a comment from the editorial department of the Japanese literary magazine 'Shincho'.]

"With her indescribably beautiful writing, she completely immerses the reader in a world of descriptive beauty. 'Chizuka Takina' already deserves to be called a literary master—a review from the renowned Japanese literary magazine 'Gunzo'."

A year ago, most of them had forgotten the existence of you, that fleeting shooting star.

[And a year later, you can still captivate them with the pure beauty of your words.]

That year, the pen name 'Chizuka Takina' was prominently featured on the Naoki Prize nomination list.

This year, you made your first on-screen appearance on TV Tokyo.

[Because of your long immersion in the world of literature, your bright and clear eyes, your handsome and refined appearance, and your young age of twenty-one, you quickly gained a large following.]

[Among them, the proportion of female fans reached an astonishing 80%.]

[At the same time, you were also hailed by some sensationalist magazines and media outlets as the "national husband" for whom '87% of young Japanese women would want to marry'.]

You're actually not interested in these kinds of trivial matters.

Similarly, you rarely attend book signings; for you, the time commitment is simply too much of a hassle.

You've always considered it foolish to be someone's idol; you'd much rather be their role model.

Later on, you even stopped caring who ultimately won the Naoki Prize.

Because you feel that, compared to ephemeral awards and honors, being by the side of Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue is what you should be doing most.

[You may no longer care about the Naoki Prize, but besides you, countless other eyes are watching the final outcome.]

Soon, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the results of this year's Naoki Prize for Literature were announced.

[Above the list is "Waiting for You Beyond the Place" by Chitsuka Takina, hailed as Japan's foremost young writer of the contemporary era.]

Everyone was speechless at this result.

Since her debut, Chitsuka Takina has won numerous awards, both large and small, and now she has even won the Naoki Prize, considered Japan's national literary award.

Not to mention, the other party is only twenty-one years old.

This year, everyone went crazy for you.

[Publishers have been sending you all sorts of publishing requests, offering exorbitant royalty contracts, and even your former high school, Ocha High School, has extended invitations for you to give a speech.]

Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue had never seen such a long string of zeros at the end of a contract before; they had to drink several mouthfuls of water to calm themselves down.

[Regarding these requests, aside from your promise to personally go to Ocha High School, the rest were all handled by lawyers and others.]

In the same year, you declined the offer of a Doctor of Literature degree from the University of Tokyo, as well as an invitation to become a professor of literature.

Countless people expressed their envy—envy that your talent allowed you to directly reject an invitation from the University of Tokyo.

[And it was the following month that you announced some news to the outside world.]

You will marry Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue at the end of this month.

The shocking news of these two women marrying at the same time has once again caused a stir in the Japanese literary world, which had just begun to calm down!

You're like a nuclear bomb, relentlessly stirring up the stagnant waters of the Japanese literary world.

Similarly, some people have also noticed this.

From your early work, "Café No. 3," to "Distant Places and Snow," and now to "Waiting for You on the Other Side."

Your novels are all based on two young girls, including your pen name.

The sudden revelation has been difficult for many of your admirers to accept.

[At the same time, some readers who had no objection to this, believing that as long as 'Chizuka Takina' is happy, that's all that matters, stepped forward to offer their opinions.]

[In an instant, you, now a national-level literary figure 'Chitsuka Takina', are once again at the center of controversy.]

Everything seems to be heading in a bad direction.

Chapter 103. Nango Takina and Nango Chizuka (4000 words)

Everything seems to be heading in a bad direction.

Upon seeing this line of text, Nanxiang Shi couldn't help but furrow his brow.

What the heck?

He had done his best in this simulation.

Is this going to get worse?

Nanxiang couldn't understand.

But after reading carefully and concentrating his mental energy to perceive it, he revealed an expression of sudden realization.

"It seems so?"

Seeing the word "seems" in the sentence "[Everything seems to be heading in a bad direction.]", Nango Toki's tense mood instantly relaxed by more than half.

This erratic simulator loves to play tricks when it comes to word choice and sentence structure.

After so many simulations, Nanxiang Shi can almost say that he is completely used to it.

Previously, everything seemed to be moving in a positive direction.

Now that they know this trick isn't very effective and can't fool him at all, they say, "It seems to be developing in a bad direction."

Nanxiang couldn't help but slap the simulator's screen hard, making the pale blue window shake and the font twitch before he finally withdrew his hand, satisfied.

He then continued to immerse himself in the simulation.

While there is certainly a possibility that it's a bluff, it can't be said with absolute certainty that it's just a hoax.

We need to continue to observe how things develop.

Everything seems to be heading in a bad direction.

But you didn't pay any attention to these rumors, and you didn't even bother to explain yourself.

For you, as long as you can make Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue happy, mere criticism and accusations mean nothing.

[If you, with your easygoing nature, have this attitude, then Nishiki Chizuki is even less likely to care. Being naturally lively, she not only doesn't care, but can even laugh off the online criticism directed at you.]

Later on, this woman even created a blog online, posting intimate photos and tweets about you and Takina every day.

Making fun of online trolls has become her favorite thing to do.

[As for Inoue Takina, this earnest-natured girl, she simply issued an apology and explained her relationship with Chizuka.]

Growing up in the same orphanage and relying on each other since childhood, their bond had long surpassed that of ordinary sisters.

For them, falling in love with the same person now would only bring them even greater happiness.

In the article, she apologizes for the significant impact her marriage has had on yours, but even so, she hasn't given up on marrying you.

[Her naturally earnest nature prevents her from letting external opinions influence her judgment.]

They both expressed their thoughts in different ways.

You are no exception.

While preparing for your wedding, you also took some time to write a collection of short romantic stories, titled "The World and Me."

[In your novel, you used simple, unadorned, and delicately refined language to express your peaceful thoughts.]

[You didn't deliberately try to be sentimental; the overall tone of the novel is like a refreshing cup of tea, leaving one feeling invigorated.]

These tranquil and comforting words, just like the words you left on the title page—worldly perspectives have nothing to do with me.

[The book "The World and Me" was published soon after.]

[Your book sold out immediately upon publication.]

Countless people have been captivated by the carefree, serene, and simple prose in "The World and I."

At the same time, they finally understood.

Your state of mind is just like the description in "The World and Me": the calmer you are, the more fearless you are; the more serene you are, the more composed you are.

[Reading your thoughts in the book finally silenced many of those who had previously disagreed with you.]

After all, as a literary giant like 'Chizuka Takina,' you are a rare breath of fresh air in today's literary world.

[You, who can write such romantic literary works as "Waiting for You Beyond" and "The Distant Land and Snow," should perhaps not let the controversies surrounding them affect your creative process.]

The Japanese have an exceptionally high tolerance for the capriciousness of writers, a trait that is among the highest in the world.

This initially massive controversy gradually subsided due to this tolerance.

Your works, *Café No. 3*, *The Distant Land and the Snow*, and *Waiting for You There*, are hailed as the 21st-century Romantic trilogy.

[Regarding this, you, Nishiki Chizuka, and Inoue Takina no longer really care that much.]

You have told your parents and two older sisters that you are going to marry two girls at the same time.

As simple and honest people from the countryside, they had some objections to your decision, but ultimately relented and agreed to your request.

That day, you brought Nishiki Chizuka and Inoue Takina to your old home.

Far from the noise and hustle and bustle of the city, your hometown in Akita Prefecture made them feel very comfortable and relaxed.

Your parents and sister were quite surprised by their stunning beauty.

[After witnessing the sisterly bond between Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue, and their rare qualities of being down-to-earth and capable.]

The last vestige of their initial opposition vanished upon seeing the two of them.

That day, your parents called you aside and specifically instructed you to make Chizuka and Takina happy.

This is the only expectation your family has of you.

You naturally agreed to this.

As for the store manager, Mika, he actually knew about your relationship with them all along.

But he consistently turned a blind eye, and even frequently encouraged your relationship.

When you told him you were going to marry two people at the same time, he remained calm and simply nodded.

[Because Chizuka Nishiki and Takina Inoue are like his daughters.]

And he naturally knew that the only person who could bring them happiness was you.
