Chapter 64: Nao, Miu, and Rikka.

Before the alarm clock rang, Minami Yuuki woke up.

Outside the window, the sky was already bright, with orange sunlight filtering through the curtains.

He pulled back the curtains, letting the warm spring morning sun shine on him, while fresh breeze entered through the half-open window.

Looking towards the direction of the Asano house through the window, he still felt the lingering beauty of the dream-like scenes from the movie.

It was now 6:46, with classes starting at eight-thirty, leaving him almost two hours, which felt abundant.

He had one simulation left. Should he load the previous simulated life with Asano Nao, using up the free simulation, to experience married life?

Once this idea surfaced, it was hard to shake off.

His wounded soul from the hurt caused by Ibuki Yuko needed healing from Asano Nao and their two daughters.

That settled it then!

Minami Yuuki lay back in bed, pulling up the blanket.

Love simulator, activate!

[Do you want to load previously experienced simulated life?]

Load!

Choose Asano Nao's final simulation!

[Please select a memory scene or a simulated text segment as a node]

Select the time point... during Miu's senior year!

[Simulation begins]

[Remaining simulation attempts: 0]

[Simulation target: Asano Nao]

[Loading time point: Warmth Period]

[Since the node is too vague, a random day from this time period will be selected as the scene]

[Prior situation summary: You intruded into the Asano house, aggressively approaching Asano Nao. Already in love with you, Asano Nao's feelings for you deepen by the day. One day after high school graduation, you both slept in the same room.]

[However, your approach also pressured Asano Nao. From your actions of pulling her out of the house, she understood you wanted to heal her, to make her lead a normal life like everyone else. She lacked the confidence to lead a happy life with you, which tormented her loving heart. In the end, she chose to leave you.]

[She parted ways with you, yet remained connected. She took the handkerchief you gave her and... your daughter in her womb. You found out where Asano Nao had gone but chose not to pursue her. You decided to release her from the pressure of separation, hoping to create a better future when you reunite.]

[When your daughter Miu was in the third grade, you found Asano Nao hiding in a rural village. You first approached Miu, having her around you, then met Asano Nao. This time, you deliberately acted cold, treating Asano Nao as an ex-girlfriend from the past, a lover now.]

[This lover-like, strong desire but emotionally distant relationship allowed Asano Nao to feel at ease, knowing she was just a lover, enjoying the present without worrying about the future.]

[She fell into your trap, your feigned indifference, using trivial reasons to have her move into your home, marry you, and bear your second daughter, Rikka. Did she really think all these were mere coincidences? Did she truly not notice your hidden deep affection? Even she herself remained unaware of this.]

[Upon Miu graduating from junior high, you returned to Misaki City, moving back into the Asano residence.]

[Today is an ordinary weekend. Miu is 17 years old and has secured a guaranteed admission to Misaki Arts University. Rikka is 4 years old and attends a nearby kindergarten. Asano Nao stays home all the time, while you work on connections, preparing to teach at Misaki Arts University.]

The text stopped, and a small popup appeared.

[About to enter free simulation. Please lie down in a safe place. This free simulation will take up 30 minutes of real-time (simulated time: 24 hours).]

Minami Yuuki pulled the blanket tighter, ensuring he was lying down properly, and swiped away the popup.

[Free simulation begins]

In front of the renovated Asano residence, a light-colored wooden fence surrounded a small garden where Minami Yuuki lay on a garden chair.

At his feet, the grass leaves had turned yellow, the spring-blooming bushes had withered away, and the temperature had dropped, marking the arrival of late autumn.

It was noon, the warmest sunlight of the day gently bathing him, with no wind, making it exceptionally comfortable.

Inside the living room, Minami Nao was folding clothes on the sofa, stealing glances through the window at her husband in the yard.

Seeing that he hadn't moved the chair for a long time, Minami Nao quickly finished folding the jackets in her hands, picked up a blanket beside her, and walked into the garden.

Just as she was about to cover the man with the blue blanket, his closed eyes opened. He looked lively, with a smile on his face, showing no signs of having been asleep.

She realized she had been deceived, but she was already drawn in by the bait and couldn't escape.

Minami Yuuki grabbed her wrist, pulling her into his arms, lying her down on top of him.

Minami Nao didn't resist. She lay on his chest, listening to the strong heartbeat beneath his firm muscles. Her face turned red.

"Someone might see us," Minami Nao whispered softly.

"We're just lying here, not doing anything else," Minami Yuuki held her waist, looking at her shy face, touching her soft body, lightly smelling her fragrant hair, and listening to her delicate voice.

Sight, touch, smell, hearing—all felt particularly wonderful, particularly charming. Everything felt as real as it could be, as if he had traveled into the future with Asano Nao.

Minami Yuuki marveled at the magic of this love simulator.

Slowly, his neglected sense of taste began to yearn. Minami Yuuki gazed at Minami Nao's moist lips, lifting her chin with his right hand and leaning down.

Taste satisfied, all senses fully engaged, experiencing the beauty of Minami Nao.

As they separated, Minami Nao quickly buried her face in Minami Yuki's chest, avoiding her husband's burning gaze.

Suddenly remembering they were in the garden, she cautiously lifted her head to glance outside the fence.

There were no pedestrians on the road, and their intimacy hadn't been seen by anyone. She breathed a sigh of relief.

Luckily, this path was secluded. If a woman passed by and stared at Minami Yuuki with lustful eyes, mistaking him for a frivolous man, her guilt would have been greater.

As she withdrew her gaze, she instinctively glanced to the side, and was startled to see her youngest daughter Rikka standing on the side of the lounge chair, gripping the armrest with her small hand, staring at her curiously.

The girl was wearing a pink dress, her black hair tied up in a small bun on top of her head. Her twinkling eyes, tender cheeks—all displayed her cuteness.

"I want a kiss too!" Rikka stretched out her arm. Her voice was loud, seemingly complaining why her parents didn't include her.

Minami Nao's face turned redder than autumn leaves. She clung to Minami Yuuki like a startled squirrel, hastily seeking refuge in the nearby tree that could give her a sense of security.

Minami Yuuki chuckled as he lifted Rikka up and placed her next to Minami Nao. The girl used her hand to turn her mom's face towards her, planted a kiss on her cheek, then leaned over to kiss her dad.

"You're not supposed to kiss outside!" Minami Nao covered her daughter's mouth, her expression serious. "It might attract evil women's attention to daddy!"

It was like a gaming console. If left alone, it could be kept under control when passing by, but once a game was running, passing by wouldn't resist taking up the controller and playing!

So, when outside, Minami Yuuki could only behave properly, not touch, not kiss.

Otherwise, it would tempt wicked women and lead to criminal thoughts!

"But you two were just doing it here!" Rikka pouted.

"Then hurry up, I'll keep watch for you," Minami Nao watched vigilantly around them.

The girl nodded, cautiously looked left and right, then quickly kissed Minami Yuuki on the cheek.

Minami Yuuki chuckled helplessly.

He held his wife and youngest daughter, affectionate under the sunlight. Before long, the wind picked up, shaking the dried branches of the bushes, and clouds covered the sun, bringing down the temperature.

Minami Yuuki first put Rikka down, then lifted Minami Nao in his arms.

"Where's Miu?" he asked.

"She's in the practice room." Minami Nao told him.
