Love Comes After Simulation

Chapter 119

【Nakajima Reina learned about her father’s upcoming remarriage during the summer, when she saw photos of her new family members on his phone. They were a beautiful mother and daughter. When she was young, she had wished for a sister, and now that wish was coming true.】

【She didn’t ask about her sister’s age, but when they first met and you called out “Ibuki-senpai,” she was startled. It turned out that Ibuki Yuko, whom she had imagined as a middle schooler, was already a second-year high school student.】

【She thought that if she were still in school, she would be in her second year of high school too.】

【She first noticed her sister’s feelings during their second meeting. Her sister was quiet and always held a book during her free time. Her father often said she was calm, and Reina felt that her sister truly embodied calmness. This quiet sister, whenever you arrived, always kept her gaze fixed on you and followed you around.】

【Reina initially thought it was because her sister was too shy to be alone with her, so she always followed you, someone familiar. However, when Reina arrived before you the next day, her sister showed no sign of shyness.】

【This discovery surprised and saddened her, making her realize that while her world revolved around you, your world did not have to revolve solely around her.】

【She liked her Japanese doll-like sister very much and tried to convince herself to let her sister have you, so that she and you could remain family.】

【She began to give up and let her sister have the opportunity.】

【You noticed her thoughts and decided to…】

【2. “A younger sister is not unacceptable.”】

【3. “Let’s not make choices like children!”】

【4. Free Simulation】

This is a straightforward question. There’s no need to overthink it.

Rather than focusing on this option, Minami Yuuki is more concerned with how Ibuki Yuko acts in the simulated life.

He mentally grumbles:

To steal someone’s boyfriend, you first persuade your mother to marry someone else’s father, making yourself their new sister, and then use that sisterly relationship to get close to someone’s boyfriend… that’s so scheming!

So despicable!

Even I wouldn’t do something like that!

And Nakajima Reina too, don’t give up your boyfriend just because your sister is cute!

How can you be so indulgent?

Sighing again, Minami Yuuki selected option one.

【Facing Ibuki Yuko’s advances, you remain steadfast and devoted to Nakajima Reina. No matter how cute Ibuki Yuko dresses, how adorable her accessories are, or how charming her poses might be, you remain unmoved.】

【Nakajima Reina notices your unwavering commitment and feels a pang of bitterness.】

【You change the time you meet Nakajima Reina and start making surprise visits to the therapy building, preventing Ibuki Yuko from knowing when you’ll arrive.】

【This tactic only works for two days. During these two days, you kiss Nakajima Reina again and realize that as long as you deal with Ibuki Yuko, your relationship with Reina can return to how it was before.】

【Two days later, Ibuki Yuko begins to wait for you by the door. Every day after school, she stays in Nakajima Reina’s hospital room until visiting hours are over, denying you the chance to surprise Reina.】

【Faced with Ibuki Yuko’s persistent presence, you choose to…】

Minami Yuuki is surprised to see more options.

It seems Ibuki Yuko is indeed a troublesome character; both options relate to her, and her presence significantly affects the development of his relationship with Nakajima Reina.

He looks at the options.

【1. “Ibuki-senpai, could you please stop coming here? You’re being a nuisance.”】

【2. “Nakajima-sensei, Aunt Honoka, I think your marriage isn’t suitable. Maybe you should consider divorcing?”】

【3. “Princess Reina, it’s time to inspect your empire.”】

【4. Free Simulation】

These options are quite aggressive and a bit intimidating. Minami Yuuki curls up a bit more into Asano Nao’s embrace.

Option one attacks Ibuki Yuko, option two attacks Nakajima Yohei and Ibuki Honoka, and option three… Minami Yuuki thinks for a moment and understands the meaning of option three.

Since Ibuki Yuko waits in the hospital room, maybe it’s enough to avoid being in the hospital room?

What should he choose?

He hesitates.

Option two can be ruled out first.

Even if Nakajima Yohei and Ibuki Honoka divorce, Ibuki Yuko could still use her former sister status to access Nakajima Reina’s hospital room.

He believes that the petite senpai’s determination would make disrupting Nakajima Yohei and Ibuki Honoka’s relationship ineffective.

With only options one and three remaining…

Ibuki Yuko is a cunning opponent. Choosing option three would mean continuing to outwit her, and Minami Yuuki isn’t confident of a guaranteed win.

However, with option one, Minami Yuuki is certain that Ibuki Yuko would withdraw from the competition.

The doll-like girl seeks his love, and if she realizes she cannot obtain it, she would let go, which at least prevents any animosity.

Yet, option one seems too harsh.

Sighing, Minami Yuuki uses his will to select option three.

Even in another girl’s simulated life, he cannot bring himself to say such things to Ibuki Yuko.

If this simulation fails, he’ll find another solution.

【You decide to abandon the siege strategy and switch to guerrilla tactics.】

【The weather has turned autumnal, and the nights are pleasantly cool, no longer oppressive with heat. Since marrying Honoka, Nakajima Yohei has become busy in the evenings, visiting his daughter during his work breaks. You no longer need to worry about running into him.】

【That evening, after finishing dinner at the Asano household, you plan your next move.】

【Asano Nao knows about your relationship with Nakajima Reina. After successfully infiltrating Nakajima Reina’s hospital room, you revealed your situation to this shut-in older sister. Your actions were quite crafty, pretending to be honest while actually refusing. After a brief period of sadness, Asano Nao chose to bless your relationship.】

【You used the same tactic to reject Chitose Kazumi. The girl cried a lot in Asano Nao’s arms, accepting that her relationship with you would remain only as friends.】

【Only Ibuki Yuko remains unwilling to give up.】

【At six o’clock, you board the subway heading to Chikusa Hospital. By six-thirty, you arrive at the therapy building.】

【Hearing your footsteps, Ibuki Yuko puts down her book and jogs over to open the hospital room door for you.】

【Until seven o’clock, you maintain a calm demeanor. You chat with Nakajima Reina and respond normally to Ibuki Yuko’s attempts to converse. You even share the drinks you brought with Ibuki Yuko, making the doll-like girl gradually relax her guard.】

【When Ibuki Yuko heads to the restroom, you seize the opportunity to act.】

【You first remove your shoes, hanging them by your side, then pick up Nakajima Reina in your arms. The girl looks at you in surprise and is about to ask something, but you press your lips against hers to silence her.】

【Before she can react, you carry her out of the hospital room. Once on the first floor, you place her in a prepared wheelchair and hurriedly push her out of the therapy building.】

【By the time Ibuki Yuko catches up, your figures have already disappeared from sight.】
