Love Comes After Simulation

Chapter 66

Outside the window, the dark sky gradually lightened, turning into a dusky deep blue. The moon grew dim, indicating the approaching sunrise.

Minami Yuuki lay on his side in bed, his hand gently stroking his wife’s hair as she slept. He gazed at the face of the woman, who could now be called a mature woman.

That face, made more charming by time and affection, was defenselessly closed before him. He couldn’t resist and kissed those moist lips again.

Her eyelids twitched as if she was about to wake up, but her tired body prevented her from doing so. She turned over, her face pressing against Minami Yuuki’s side.

Minami Yuuki glanced at the digital clock by the bed. It was already past four, with about eight hours left until the free simulation would end.

He carefully moved his body, sliding out from under the blanket, his feet touching the floor.

The tiredness from his body was bound by his spirit and set aside. There was no time for sleep now.

He went to the study, turned on the computer, and logged onto the web.

The sun finally peeked over the horizon, slowly rising into the sky. By noon, Minami Airi returned with Miu and Rikka. Minami Yuuki woke up Minami Nao, and the family enjoyed sukiyaki together.

When he woke up again, he saw the ceiling of his apartment and a semi-transparent notification box.

[Free Simulation Ended]

He dismissed the box and briefly glanced at the continuing simulation, noting that the content was the same as before, requiring no review.

[Simulation Ended]

[Due to the emotional progression being too similar, no summary will be provided]

Ignoring these prompts, Minami Yuuki lay quietly in bed. In his mind, the smiling faces of Nao, Miu, and Rikka hadn’t faded. The scent of his wife and daughters still lingered around him.

It was wonderful.

The girls were obedient and clever, and his wife was beautiful and alluring.

In his heart, the thought of simply being with Asano Nao surfaced again.

He patted his cheeks to invigorate himself, got out of bed, and walked barefoot into the bathroom.

After a quick wash, he changed clothes and went to his desk, drying his wet hair while flipping open a notebook.

Being a shrewd person, he couldn’t possibly use the free simulation just to experience married life.

After Asano Nao fell asleep, he used the computer in the study to look up and memorize a bunch of information about the future world!

Lottery numbers, futures market changes, business conflicts, world affairs, all stored in his mind!

With these, he could easily manipulate events, turning clouds and rain!

Spreading out the notebook, he picked up a pen, ready to write down the lottery numbers he had memorized countless times, so there was no way he could forget!

But his pen tip couldn’t move across the paper for a long time.

He thought again about the futures market, emerging industries, political turmoil… no string of information surfaced.

His memory seemed to have been washed clean, or rather, only the memories of life with his wife and daughters were brought out.

“As expected, the simulator wouldn’t leave such a loophole.”

Minami Yuuki sighed and put down the pen.

After seeing “memory fragments” in the last settlement, he realized that using the free simulation to obtain future information might not work.

After all, the simulator had made “memory fragments” such a reward for future information, so how could it allow him to freely obtain future information in the free simulation?

Closing the notebook, he grabbed his school bag and headed to the Asano house.

With the get-rich plan failed, he could only continue to live off others.

On the way, he checked his phone and found that Airi had sent two messages on LINE last night, which he hadn’t noticed due to being engrossed in the simulation.

Airi: I folded new thousand paper cranes for you! If the souvenir you bring me back this summer is less than 10,000 yen, I’ll kill you!

Airi: Little yellow duck holding a knife.jpg

New paper cranes to be received? This cheap sister had obediently folded the cranes after all!

Minami Yuuki typed a reply.

Yuuki: I slept early last night and just saw your message today. Thanks a lot, I’ll definitely bring you a big gift when I come back this summer!

Yuuki: Little pony holding a heart.jpg

He had just sent a message when his phone buzzed again. His beloved had sent him another emoji of a little yellow duck with a knife. No matter which country you are in, emojis are a popular part of social media culture.

Putting his phone back in his pocket, Minami Yuuki walked through the courtyard and out of the apartment building.

Thankfully, his sister hadn’t mentioned anything about the material fees. He was currently penniless.

However, he needed to bring her an expensive gift when he went home for summer vacation. How could he save money to buy her a gift? He still owed Asano Nao money.

Standing in front of the Asano family’s house, Minami Yuuki smacked his forehead.

There was no need to worry about money at all!

As long as he didn’t go home for summer vacation, he wouldn’t have to bring a gift for his sister!

Suddenly, his outlook widened.

Thinking carefully, he realized he wouldn’t have any free time to go home during the summer. Love wasn’t everything in life; he still needed to make some money to improve his life.

With the problem successfully solved, he rang the Asano house’s doorbell.

As soon as the doorbell rang, Asano Nao opened the door.

The speed was incredibly fast. Usually, she would hesitate for a long time at the door, considering her stance, posture, expression, and outfit.

Today, she opened the door driven by a surge of passion and uncontainable excitement.

Last night, after folding paper cranes and falling asleep, she had once again entered that magical dream.

She watched her and Minami Yuuki’s story again. The intense happiness, the racing heartbeat, and the burning blood made her wake up immediately after the dream movie ended.

She had already been waiting in the living room for two hours.

“We’re having udon today. It’s almost ready, so please wait a moment.” She took Minami Yuuki’s backpack and placed it on the cabinet in the entryway.

This action was overly intimate. Asano Nao’s heart was still in her and Minami Yuuki’s married life, forgetting their current relationship.

“Sister is particularly forward today, taking my bag and placing it on the cabinet—just like a newlywed wife welcoming her husband home,” Minami Yuuki teased her habitually. “Is Sister planning to have me repay my debt with my body?”

Asano Nao’s face immediately turned red. She lowered her head and muttered softly to herself, “I wouldn’t mind that.”

“Hm?” Noticing her lips moving, Minami Yuuki leaned in closer.

She hurriedly avoided him and ran into the kitchen. Minami Yuuki didn’t mind and went to open the curtains and windows in the living room.

The udon was already in the pot. Asano Nao adjusted the seasoning and brought it to the table.

“This is delicious,” Minami Yuuki slurped the noodles. “But Sister doesn’t need to go through the trouble of making such a complicated breakfast.”

“It’s no trouble at all,” Asano Nao quickly denied.

Minami Yuuki didn’t insist, focusing on eating his noodles.

Outside, the noise of office workers and students could be heard. The alley in front of the Asano house was narrow and only this lively during this time of day.

“Yuuki-kun, have you ever thought about studying music?” Asano Nao couldn’t help but ask.

In her dream, their relationship had started to progress rapidly after Minami Yuuki enrolled in a private music school.

Thinking about living together with Minami Yuuki, her heart, which had just calmed down, started to race again. Imaginary happiness enveloped her as she fantasized about their future life.

“No, I haven’t,” Minami Yuuki replied.

This sentence shattered the foundation of her fantasy and the source of her happiness.
