Genshin Impact: Life Simulator

"Big Brother Nathan, why aren't you moving at all?"

Hu Tao sat perched on his shoulders, still squirming around, completely unaware that she was the source of his predicament.

The girl's softness and warmth were fully on display.

"I... I dare not move. Hu Tao, hurry up and climb over!"

How could Nathan dare to move now? He absolutely couldn't!

Because if he looked up, he would make contact with the most intimate area. 

The best solution now was to have the girl quickly leave this awkward position.

"Oh my, Big Brother Nathan, are you blushing?"

Hu Tao leaned down, making direct eye contact with him.

"Little one, what do you know? Hurry up and climb!"

Being watched with that teasing gaze made Nathan feel like he was looking at the future Hu Tao.

Not wanting to remain passive, he could only continue urging the girl on his shoulders.

"Hmph, where am I little? Big Brother Nathan, explain yourself!"

"With your budding figure, how big do you expect to be?"

After this "friendly" exchange, Hu Tao looked down at herself, suddenly understanding Nathan's meaning.

"Oh, so that's what Big Brother Nathan meant... Just wait and see, I'll definitely grow to a point that will surprise you."

Not discouraged by her current flatness, Hu Tao's eyes were filled with confidence.

"Hehe, hopefully so!!!"

However, Nathan, already knowing the future, could only chuckle at the girl's confidence.

"Hmph, Big Brother Nathan likes them big, how annoying!!!"

Without further argument, Hu Tao changed her position, now standing on his shoulders.

Even in this standing position, the girl's body remained light as a feather, and Nathan felt no weight at all.

The ancients weren't wrong - women truly are soft creatures!

"Big Brother Nathan, it's your turn!"

In the next second, Hu Tao had nimbly jumped onto the wall.

She made a funny face and extended her delicate hand toward Nathan.

"Um... can't I use the front door?"

Seeing this, Nathan hesitated.

After all, he wouldn't be the one getting scolded, so he shouldn't need to follow Hu Tao in climbing the wall.

"No way! Big Brother Nathan, you're my accomplice - you must follow my lead!"

Before he could finish speaking, his suggestion was completely vetoed by Hu Tao.

"Hurry up, give me your hand!"

Seeing Nathan motionless, Hu Tao continued urging from atop the wall.

"No need, I can get up there myself!"

Unlike the current Hu Tao who was still ordinary, Nathan had been empowered by various simulations and was far from ordinary.

With one leap, he jumped onto the wall.

"Big Brother Nathan's skills are amazing!"

Seeing she didn't need to help, Hu Tao puffed her cheeks as if sulking, then seemed to think of something...

"If Big Brother Nathan is so capable, why didn't you just carry me up directly!"

"Well... weren't you the one who wanted to climb up first?"

As the girl's dissatisfied gaze fell upon him, Nathan explained helplessly.

"I don't care, Big Brother Nathan wanted to make things difficult for me!"

On the narrow wall, Hu Tao threw herself into his arms, her tiny fists raining down like gentle rain on his chest.

Nathan sighed inwardly - girls of any age could sometimes be this unreasonable.

Regardless of how things started or proceeded, better to just accept the blame.

"I don't care, Big Brother Nathan has to make it up to me!"

Her coy offensive grew stronger - this contrast with the future Hu Tao was almost more than Nathan could handle.

"What compensation do you want?"

"Hehe, I want Big Brother Nathan to carry me down!"

Changing her tone, Hu Tao giggled as she made her demand.

Nathan knew it... this was all part of Hu Tao's multi-layered scheme.

Helplessly, he had fallen into her trap from the very beginning.

"Alright... hold on tight then, Hu Tao!"

It was just carrying her down after all - they'd already done more intimate things.

"Okay!!!"

Hu Tao, now nestled in his arms, smiled as sweet as honey.

...................

"Done. Hu Tao, you can get down now!"

A very smooth jump, a perfect landing - the girl in his arms hadn't felt any jolts at all.

"No! I want Big Brother Nathan to carry me back to my room just like this!"

The little girl, addicted to acting spoiled, had no intention of letting Nathan off.

"Walking around so brazenly while carrying you - won't it look bad if someone sees?"

"Don't worry, Father must be in the main hall right now, he definitely won't discover us."

Hu Tao's words were practically raising a death flag, and as soon as she finished speaking... a strong voice came from behind.

"Stop right there! What are you two sneaking around for?"

Nathan didn't dare move a muscle - they'd been caught red-handed.

The most awkward part was that he was still holding Hu Tao in his arms.

"Fa-Father, why are you here?"

Hu Tao's voice trembled, making Nathan's vision go dark.

So they'd been caught by Hu Tao's father face-to-face. If he saw them in such an intimate position, even jumping into the River wouldn't clear their names.

"Hu Tao, you've really grown bold, even learning to run away from home!"

The middle-aged man began scolding. Since Nathan wouldn't turn around, he walked around to face them.

"No... Father, I just went..."

Hu Tao, hiding in Nathan's arms, started to explain but suddenly cut herself off.

Because going to Wuwang Hill to see her grandfather one last time had violated the Wangsheng Funeral Parlor's ancestral precepts.

"What's wrong... why did you stop!"

By this time, the middle-aged man had walked to their front.

Nathan met his gaze and was certain this was a character he'd never seen in the game.

The man's features and appearance were seventy percent similar to Hu Tao's.

However, having reached middle age, he seemed to be facing a crisis of balding.

"My dear daughter... gone for two days, and you've even found yourself a helper?"

Hu Tao's father similarly sized up Nathan, but his eyes showed no trace of anger.

Rather... they showed something more like approval.

"Um, greetings Uncle Hu. My name is Nathan!"

Regardless, with the man's daughter still in his arms, Nathan could only fight through the awkwardness to introduce himself.

"Sigh... Young Master Nathan... don't tell me you were forcibly led astray by my Hu Tao!"

The middle-aged man paused, then sighed deeply - truly, a father knows his daughter best.
