Seductive Beauty - Chapter 90
Chapter 90
Being forcibly kissed was far from a first, but this time Gu Sijiu's state of mind was completely different from every time before. She didn't understand what game Song Jinzhi was playing by doing this, deliberately distancing herself earlier, and now having the nerve to force a kiss. The indignation and anger in her heart made Gu Sijiu bite down hard on Song Jinzhi's lip, her hands restlessly pushing at her, her legs kicking against Song Jinzhi's body.
Gu Sijiu bit down hard, tasting blood almost immediately, yet Song Jinzhi only seemed to grow more daring in the face of resistance, kissing with even greater fervor. Her wet, soft tongue swept repeatedly across Gu Sijiu's lips and tongue, the tickling sensation making Gu Sijiu's eyes burn. Gradually, the force of her resistance weakened. The Alpha narrowed her eyes, tear stains still lingering at the corners. Even if she could mask her expression, could mask her gaze, she could not mask the fondness for herself carried in her pheromones.
After the kiss, Song Jinzhi slowly released Gu Sijiu. Both of their lips were stained with blood. Gu Sijiu couldn't help licking her lower lip, and after tasting the blood, she opened her eyes to look at the lip she had bitten on the other's mouth, then awkwardly averted her gaze. Noticing her small movement, Song Jinzhi's eyes softened. She embraced Gu Sijiu, who had already calmed down.
"A Jiu, I haven't been toying with your feelings, and it's not what you said, some ploy of playing hot and cold. I was just afraid. I've always been afraid of you." At this moment, Song Jinzhi had no choice but to speak the thoughts hidden in her heart. She had originally wanted to wait for Gu Sijiu to confess first. Just now, the other had already declared her fondness for her, so Song Jinzhi no longer intended to continue interacting with Gu Sijiu with that wall between them.
The sight of Gu Sijiu crying moments ago had pierced Song Jinzhi's heart. She couldn't help wondering whether, on the night she deliberately didn't come back for her birthday, this person had also hidden alone in her room, crying as helplessly as she had just now. Gu Sijiu, a person who was both a stranger and familiar to Song Jinzhi. She didn't understand how just losing her memory could make Gu Sijiu seem like a completely different person.
She had changed so much, becoming so gentle, becoming so endearing. Song Jinzhi had never seen any Alpha who cared so much about appearance as she did. She would make so many foods Song Jinzhi would never have imagined, a delicate tenderness seeping into her heart, making it impossible for Song Jinzhi to stop herself from falling for her.
These were all clearly good things, but Gu Sijiu herself was the most unstable bomb of all.
"Afraid of me? Why are you afraid of me?" Hearing Song Jinzhi's words, Gu Sijiu finally stopped focusing on throwing a tantrum and decided to talk properly.
"A Jiu, you may not remember the things that happened between us before, but I remember them clearly. The former you wasn't like you are now. You and I had far too many unpleasant experiences. Many times, I almost died at your hands. I'm terrified that after you recover all your memories, you'll become the person you once were. That possibility, I'm too afraid of it, afraid to even think about it."
Song Jinzhi honestly confessed the reason she was most wary of. She could feel that after she finished speaking, Gu Sijiu's body stiffened, then slowly relaxed. Still uncertain how Gu Sijiu would react, Song Jinzhi felt a warm hand reach up from above her head, ruffling her hair, soothing her with light, slow strokes.
"Jinzhi, I was the one who failed to consider this, which led to so many misunderstandings. That's right... I shouldn't have forgotten the things that scumbag Gu Sijiu did to you. She hurt you so much. How could I have forgotten?" Now, Gu Sijiu finally understood the reason behind Song Jinzhi's alternating warmth and coldness. She had originally thought the other was deliberately stringing her along. All her questions had finally been answered.
Sure enough, it was still the disaster left behind by that scumbag, the original host. Thinking of the original host's actions, Gu Sijiu ground her teeth in hatred every time. And now, with all the turmoil between her and Song Jinzhi caused by her again, Gu Sijiu was even more furious. She knew what she had just said could easily raise suspicion, and she had no intention of telling Song Jinzhi about her own situation.
It wasn't that she didn't trust Song Jinzhi, but something like a soul transmigrating to another world was far too unbelievable. Besides, she still wasn't sure whether a soul transfer could be kept one hundred percent secret without being discovered. If she told Song Jinzhi, she would only become more uneasy and worried. And if one day her identity were exposed, it might even drag Song Jinzhi down. Rather than that, it was better that she alone knew. Even if something went wrong, she would bear it herself.
"A Jiu, I'm not blaming you. Perhaps there are some things I shouldn't say this way, but ever since you lost your memory, I've always treated the present you and the past you as two different people. You are different. The one I like is the current Gu Sijiu, not that madwoman from before. Does it bother you that I do this?"
Song Jinzhi spoke honestly. Ultimately, she still loathed the former Gu Sijiu, but toward the person before her, she couldn't bring herself to hate no matter what. Song Jinzhi didn't know whether Gu Sijiu would mind being treated as two separate people. But after she finished speaking, Gu Sijiu suddenly laughed. Her laughter sounded genuinely happy.
"Jinzhi, I like you saying that, and I want you to do exactly that. The old Gu Sijiu is already dead. The one standing in front of you now is a different Gu Sijiu. But if you think saying these sweet words will make me stop being angry, then you're dead wrong." After talking things through, Gu Sijiu's tone became much lighter. Recognizing her tsundere act, Song Jinzhi was willing to indulge her today. After all, she was the one who had made her cry.
"A Jiu, it's my fault for not telling you all this sooner." Song Jinzhi spoke gently. Hearing this, Gu Sijiu gave a satisfied hum and rolled over, preparing to sleep. Seeing that she hadn't said whether she forgave her, Song Jinzhi hugged her from behind, kissed the back of her neck, and then licked her gland with the tip of her tongue.
"What are you doing? Stop it." Tickled by the licking, Gu Sijiu hurriedly shied away. "I just want to make it up to you. Just now... you didn't get to feel good." Song Jinzhi's words carried a suggestive meaning. Her naughty hand slipped under the blanket and squeezed Gu Sijiu's pert, tender bottom. At that lewd squeeze, Gu Sijiu let out a soft moan but still dodged away.
"You've annoyed me dry. Who's in the mood anymore? Sleep properly. Any more hands on nonsense and I'll kick you out." This time, Gu Sijiu had finally reclaimed a sense of authority. In the past, it was always her being kicked out by Song Jinzhi. Now it was finally her turn to be the boss.
"Alright, alright, I won't touch. But then... A Jiu, what is our relationship now? Are we lovers?" Song Jinzhi asked cautiously. She felt the evolution of their relationship had been rather strange. They had clearly been in bed so many times already, yet still hadn't defined their relationship.
"Who says? I never agreed." Gu Sijiu kept up her tsundere stubbornness. But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard Song Jinzhi respond with a cold "oh," and then, without another word, get up to leave. Seeing how easily she gave up after being teased, Gu Sijiu immediately caved. She hurriedly rose and grabbed Song Jinzhi, holding her hand with both of hers.
"Hey, are you mad? I'm not disagreeing. I just want to occasionally experience the feeling of being coaxed. Song Jinzhi, you're not that petty, are you? We both like each other, so of course we're lovers. Not just lovers, we're going to get married. Jinzhi, I like you so much. You have no idea how many times I've pictured us getting married in my head."
Brainlessly, Gu Sijiu confessed again, blurting out all the words in her heart. Hearing this, though they weren't flowery sweet nothings, Song Jinzhi found them immensely satisfying. She secretly curved the corner of her lips upward, but she pulled Gu Sijiu's hands away and continued toward the door. Now Gu Sijiu truly panicked. She ran over naked and clung to Song Jinzhi, refusing to let go.
"Wooden face, what's gotten into you? Are you mad?" Gu Sijiu thought she wouldn't die unless she courted death. Why did she have to put on that tsundere act just now?
"No, I just feel a bit hungry. I was going to get a nutrient supplement." Song Jinzhi said softly. Hearing this, Gu Sijiu finally noticed it was already past eleven at night. After tossing around for hours without eating dinner, of course they'd be hungry.
"Then don't eat the nutrient supplement. How about I make you a midnight snack?" Gu Sijiu spoke ingratiatingly. Seeing her blushing as she covered her body with one hand while the other clung to her, afraid she might leave, Song Jinzhi's eyes glinted with secret delight. She nodded. Then she watched as Gu Sijiu went back, put on her underwear, threw on a hamster print sleep dress, and started busying herself in the kitchen.
Standing at the doorway, Song Jinzhi quietly admired Gu Sijiu's earnest face. Even though it was just a midnight snack, she made it with complete seriousness.
Song Jinzhi suddenly remembered a TV drama she had watched as a child. There had been a line in it that went: "Never refuse someone who will make you a midnight snack late at night. Just standing at the kitchen doorway and watching her busy back for you, all discontent will fade away."
Looking at Gu Sijiu, Song Jinzhi couldn't help stepping forward and wrapping her arms around her from behind.
"A Jiu, I forgot to formally respond to your confession just now."
I like you too.
