They All Said This Wasn't the Life Simulation Game!

"Good morning, Wang."

"Good morning, Sakura."

He hugged her from behind, kissed her cheek, nuzzled her affectionately, and then asked softly.

"You're up so early?"

"Just a little earlier than you... and I promised Ling I'd take her out today, so I need to get some preparations done."

"Are you preparing food? We can just buy it there. Besides, it'll be inconvenient carrying it around all the time."

"Food inside the amusement park is too expensive."

"It's fine, though? The money we have at home can support our occasional little indulgences."

"That won't do. Let's bring some food to tide us over, and we can find a place to eat after we leave."

"Okay, okay~ Whatever you say."

Xi Wang didn't mind this matter. Although the family wasn't short on money, if his wife wanted to be frugal, he would naturally go along with her... especially since Sakura's cooking was excellent.

However, it might be okay to "retaliate" a little, right?

Wang smiled, his hand slowly reaching for the pair of long ears on Sakura's head.

"...Stop messing around."

Sakura initially let him be, but as he continued to touch her, and his methods became increasingly strange, she shifted slightly, trying to escape his increasingly "sinful" hands. However, this slight resistance was of no use.

"...Don't... Wang, stop touching me for now."

Sakura felt a switch inside her body gradually being flipped. Her beautiful face turned flushed, and her body temperature began to rise.

"I'm still... cooking... Wait... let's talk about it tonight..."

She said in a near-whisper, then weakly broke free from Wang's embrace. With a bright red face, she stood before the stove and continued cooking the food they would bring.

"Haha..."

Wang chuckled softly, then moved slightly closer, hugging her from behind again, and then whispered in her ear.

"Okay~"

After speaking, he even blew gently, adding a touch of crimson to Sakura's ears. The pink long ears on her head instantly perked up, then drooped softly. The already cherry-blossom-like pink ears became even more rosy at this moment.

"Tsk tsk tsk..."

A sound of mild disdain came from behind. Turning around, he saw Ling standing at the foot of the stairs, leaning against the wall. She shook her head at them and said.

"You two are so sickeningly sweet... You're my sister and brother-in-law, really. I won't need to eat anymore, I'll be full of dog food every day."

"Ling, you can't not eat."

Sakura swayed the spatula in her hand and said in a scolding tone.

"You're not going to refute the part about feeding us dog food every day? Sister, you've disappointed me so much."

Ling put on a look of heartbroken distress.

"Am I not your favorite little sister anymore?"

"What are you talking about? Of course, you're my dearest little sister."

"Yay! Then I want to sleep with my sister tonight!"

"Ah, this..."

Sakura was momentarily speechless.

"Brother Wang won't mind, right~"

After saying that, Ling turned her attention to Xi Wang, giggling and saying.

"At worst, I'll sleep with both of you, Sister and Brother Wang~"

"Do you even hear what you're saying?"

Wang squinted his eyes and said with great helplessness.

"What's wrong with that!"

Ling ran into the kitchen with a puffed-out face, squeezed between the two of them, and hugged her sister.

"I'm still a pitiful and helpless child, I'm afraid of the dark when I sleep alone at night... Ouch!"

"You're too old for your age. It's not like you can't sleep alone... And I'm cooking, Ling, don't cause trouble."

"That's so mean! Brother Wang can do it!"

"Call me Brother-in-law."

"No! Sister is biased, she doesn't want her little sister anymore if she has Brother Wang, how mean!"

"Alright, alright, don't trouble Sakura too much..."

Wang scooped up Ling with both hands, intending to take her to the living room. Ling also loosened her grip on Sakura, but her face was still feigning panic as she shouted loudly to her sister.

"Sister, help! Your dearest little sister is being kidnapped by Brother Wang~"

"Stop messing around."

"Wuwu, boohoo... Brother Wang, I'm warning you, if you dare do anything to me, I won't let my sister marry you!"

"Too late for that. We already got the license. Your sister is mine now! Haha!"

"No—!"

"Are you two done playing around...?"

Listening to the conversation behind him, Sakura looked helpless. She turned back and pointed her chopsticks, still tasting food, at Ling.

"If you keep messing around, I won't take you out to play."

"It's okay~ Brother Wang will take me~ Right~?"

Ling giggled and hugged Xi Wang's neck, nuzzling him intimately. She said to her sister as if showing off.

"No, if Sakura says she's not taking you, then I won't take you either."

"Huh? No—! How could even you, Brother Wang, betray me? This isn't what we agreed on!"

"Sakura is my wife, so of course I listen to her first."

"Hmph, I'm your sister-in-law! You should be obedient to me! Otherwise, I'll have my sister teach you a lesson!"

"Ling, be good—"

Sakura's doting voice came from the kitchen, with a hint of warning.

"Wuwu— You two are bullying me. When we go out to play later, I'm going to play hard! Eat hard! I'll eat you guys poor!"

"I made bentos, so you don't need to buy food at the amusement park. Just eat a little to tide you over, and we can find somewhere to eat after we leave."

Ignoring Ling's fake crying, Sakura's voice drifted over, nipping Ling's "evil plan" in the bud.

"You guys even planned for this? Damn it!"

Ling said indignantly, flailing her fists uselessly at Xi Wang beside her in a fit of impotent rage.

"Alright, alright, stop playing. Go wash up and get ready for breakfast... Wait, Ling, have you brushed your teeth and washed your face yet?"

"I already did while you two were being lovey-dovey! Honestly, Sister, I'm grown up now. I can do these things myself, you don't need to remind me."

"Since you're grown up, you can definitely sleep by yourself tonight, right?"

Sakura said with a smile as she placed breakfast on the dining table.

"No, no, no, that's different... I'm afraid of the dark, I want to sleep with Sister!"

"Always trying to get out of things."

Sakura said with a hint of helplessness. She then turned to Xi Wang, who was also standing up and about to help.

"Go call Elysia down. She had a late stream yesterday, she should be just waking up now."

"…………?"

Elysia?

Xi Wang's body stiffened abruptly. A flicker of confusion crossed his eyes, and his head started to ache slightly, causing him to tap his temple.

Why is Elysia here? And living with us?

"What's wrong?"

Sakura looked over with some confusion, asking with concern.

"...No, nothing."

Xi Wang didn't want Sakura to worry, so he just smiled, shook his head, and calmly walked towards the stairs.

Why is Elysia living with us?

As he reached the second floor, this question kept swirling in Xi Wang's mind.

He lifted his leg, took a step, and ascended the stairs to the third floor.

Oh right...

Xi Wang seemed to remember.

Elysia is my girlfriend, so she lives on the third floor... Yeah, that's it... Is that it...?

Reaching the third floor of the house, Xi Wang's head began to ache again, making him tap his temple... He really didn't want Elysia to worry because of his condition, but the strange questions in his mind kept lingering, causing him a wave of confusion.

Elysia is my girlfriend... That's right, there's no problem with that.

He repeated it several times in his mind, but Xi Wang found no issue with this line of thought, and the headache disappeared, as if everything that had just happened was a hallucination.

"...It couldn't be that I'm just physically weak, could it?"

Xi Wang was somewhat bewildered by his recent headaches. He usually exercised regularly, so why was his body starting to have problems just a few days after getting married... No way?

"Sigh... I need to exercise more in the future."

Xi Wang sighed and walked to Elysia's room, knocking on her door.

"Elysia, time to wake up for breakfast... We're taking Ling out today."
