Love Comes After Simulation - Chapter 90

Nakajima Yohei’s daughter is very beautiful?

Comparable to Asano Nao and Ibuki Yuko?

Minami Yuuki keenly grasped the critical information.

Both Asano Nao and Ibuki Yuko are simulative targets, so could Nakajima Yohei’s daughter be one as well?

He had not yet figured out the criteria for simulative targets, but it was certain that all of them were exceptionally beautiful.

Therefore, it’s highly likely that Nakajima Yohei’s daughter is a simulative target. It seems he needs to get closer to Nakajima Yohei.

He continued to look at the simulation interface, hoping to get more information.

Unfortunately, the daughter was only briefly mentioned, and his simulated self did not seem to interact with her.

He wondered whether his simulated self was either steadfastly loyal or simply monitored too closely by Ibuki Yuko to have the opportunity to interact with her.

[Nakajima Yohei does not own property; they rented a single-family house nearby, diagonally opposite the Asano house. The house is close to the apartment, not affecting your relationship with Yuko.]

[You understand that this is Nakajima Yohei’s way of repaying you. Property prices in the area are high, and it’s far from the mall, with the only advantages being its proximity to the school and subway station.]

[After registering the marriage, Ibuki Honoka changed her name to Nakajima Honoka, but Ibuki Yuko’s surname remained unchanged. Nakajima Yohei’s reasoning was that it would have to be changed again in a couple of years anyway, so might as well skip this step. This was said for your benefit.]

[Honoka no longer lives in a daze every day. She stopped attending her frequent evening parties and returned home after work to spend time with Nakajima Yohei. When you visited the Nakajima house a few times, their lovey-dovey behavior made you feel ashamed.]

[After life settled down, Honoka quickly noticed your relationship with Yuko. She consulted Nakajima Yohei, who instructed her not to interfere, so she did not intervene in your relationship.]

[Everything seemed to be improving.]

Minami Yuuki’s lighthearted mood vanished the moment he read this sentence.

All beauty fears ambiguous words like “seems” and “perhaps,” as they often foreshadow a turning point.

Indeed, the following plot took a turn.

[However, Ibuki Yuko did not accept this happiness.]

[Her mother’s happiness brought her great pressure because she was not part of it. That happiness excluded her. Whether she was there or not, that happiness remained unchanged. She felt useless and unnecessary.]

[You were the first to notice this.]

[Ibuki Yuko spent more and more time at your apartment, returning home later and later. Honoka and Nakajima Yohei thought you wanted to keep Yuko close, deliberately keeping her late.]

[You did not do this. On the contrary, you always urged her to go home. Her late returns were a form of escape, avoiding her mother’s happiness because that happiness cruelly shut her out.]

[You approached Nakajima Yohei, asking him and Honoka to pay more attention to the girl. However, Honoka had long abandoned the skills to care for her daughter and needed time to rekindle their relationship.]

[Ibuki Yuko did not give her that time.]

[One summer night during your second year and her third year, she hugged your waist and said she didn’t want to go home.]

[She moved in with you.]

[Honoka felt guilty. When a person falls into a mud pit, dirty and disheveled, they no longer mind the raindrops on their head or the dust by the roadside. They become base, their soul and actions wrapped in the foul smell of mud. But once they leave the mud pit and return to cleanliness, the raindrops that wet them and the dust that dirties their makeup become things they avoid. They become fastidious, their soul and actions returning to the realm of virtue.]

[Honoka is such a woman, easily influenced. Around Nakajima Yohei, she once again became a good mother.]

[Every weekend, Honoka would come to your house. Not adept at housework, she showed her affection with expensive snacks and ingredients, dining and conversing with you both.]

[Did Ibuki Yuko change in response to her mother’s goodwill? You weren’t sure.]

[After graduation, Ibuki Yuko entered Misaki University. The busy school schedule and change of location reduced the time she spent with you, making her anxious. This anxiety drove her to establish a stronger, more intimate relationship with you.]

[You became physically involved.]

[In Yuko’s second year, you also entered Misaki University, joining her in the same department.]

[She continued to cling to you, and you were known as a loving couple on campus.]

[Everything seemed to change, yet somehow remained the same.]

There it was again—”seemed”!

Minami Yuuki rubbed his forehead as he looked at the simulation interface.

All this ambiguity—was the simulation successful or not?

His head felt a bit numb.

He thought that if Honoka’s marriage failed, she would leave in jealousy, causing psychological issues for Yuko. If Honoka’s marriage succeeded, her happiness would still cause problems for Yuko.

Just like Asano Nao, this girl was troublesome!

Rubbing his throbbing temples, Minami Yuuki pondered Ibuki Yuko’s psychology.

He realized that both the failure and success of Honoka’s marriage brought the same feeling to Yuko.

A failed marriage meant Honoka would leave, making Yuko feel abandoned. A successful marriage meant Honoka would be happy with another man, making Yuko feel left out again.

Now, he could only hope that Ibuki Yuko’s issues would be resolved in the future and that Honoka and Yuko would eventually get along well.

Anxious, Minami Yuuki continued reading the simulation text.

[You tried to get close to others, but each time, Ibuki Yuko would interrupt, pulling you back to her side, looking at you anxiously with eyes that feared abandonment.]

[Her pleading gaze defeated you completely. She was like a beautiful pitcher plant, luring you into her pitcher-shaped leaves, closing the lid, making you her treasured possession.]

[In your first year of university, something happened at the Nakajima household. Nakajima Yohei’s daughter from his previous marriage passed away in the hospital. You and Yuko attended her funeral.]

[After graduating from university, you two got married. You held two weddings, one Western-style in Misaki City and one Japanese-style in Ino County, one led by the Nakajima family and one by the Minami family.]

[You originally planned to stay in Misaki City to facilitate closeness between Honoka and Yuko. However, Honoka was pregnant, and you thought that seeing Honoka happy with her new child might hurt Yuko’s feelings. So, you moved to Ino County.]

[Soon after the wedding, your child was born, and you named her Mayuri.]
