Gu Sijiu's injuries were not serious, possibly because the Alphas in this world had excellent physical condition. The car accident didn't cause severe harm, but the wounds on her head and body from the impact needed to be dressed daily, which was somewhat troublesome. However, during these days of recuperation in the hospital, she had managed to piece together some scattered memories of the original owner and gain a better understanding of this world.
The original owner of this body was also named Gu Sijiu, the only daughter of former Imperial General Gu Nancheng, aged 28 this year. She held the rank of Major General in the military. Due to the relatively peaceful times in recent years, she hadn't had the opportunity to participate in any major battles. Even in minor conflicts in certain regions, Gu Nancheng was reluctant to let his only daughter go to the battlefield. Instead, Gu Sijiu spent her days working in the office, reviewing documents, occasionally exercising, and training new soldiers.
A few days ago, the fiancée who had appeared in the hospital once and hadn't been seen since, had become engaged to the original owner a month ago. As for her adjutant, Shan Ni'er, who had been taking care of her in the hospital, she had followed the original owner since joining the military and was a very honest and loyal Alpha—one of the few people Gu Sijiu could trust.
"Shan Ni'er..." Gu Sijiu withdrew her thoughts, lying on the bed and softly called out to the adjutant standing nearby. When she called someone, Gu Sijiu always liked to draw out her voice, especially at the end, slightly raising it, and widening her peach blossom eyes to match her tone. Hearing this unusually gentle call, Shan Ni'er, who was standing at attention, twitched her mouth in surprise, then composed herself and walked to the bedside in her military boots, respectfully awaiting Gu Sijiu's orders.
"Um... don't be so serious, I just want to ask, what kind of person am I in your eyes?" Gu Sijiu said softly, habitually curling her lips into a smile. Seeing her inexplicable smile, Shan Ni'er had become accustomed to seeing her Major General smile unexpectedly over the past few days. The previous Major General had rarely smiled, and her subordinates had feared her. Now, perhaps due to her injury and weakness, the Major General not only smiled more but also seemed much gentler.
"In my eyes, the Major General is a very serious person who is meticulous in her work and fair in her rewards and punishments. Your subordinates all respect you greatly." Shan Ni'er spoke with admiration, and Gu Sijiu felt that she was somewhat biased. Based on some vague memories left by the original owner, she knew that Shan Ni'er had a somewhat blind obedience to her. After all, for a titled Major General to want to be adored by subordinates, that was wishful thinking.
"Alright, enough about me. What do you think of Song Jinzhi?" Gu Sijiu, after talking about herself, was most curious about this woman. She had always been straightforward, particularly so in this new world where she was unfamiliar with everything, and suddenly found herself with a female fiancée. Even though in her original world, homose.xuality was common, Gu Sijiu had never had any feelings for women. Part of the reason was her poor luck with women.
In this world, where everything was unfamiliar, she had been immediately presented with a fiancée, who was also a woman. From the perspective of gender in this world, her relationship with Song Jinzhi was an Alpha and Omega pairing. However, to Gu Sijiu, it felt more like a farce—especially thinking of Song Jinzhi's expressionless face and the resentment she felt when looking at her. Just the thought of marrying her was frustrating.
"The young Madam? Well... I haven't interacted much with Madam, so I'm not very clear, but Madam seems difficult to get along with." Shan Ni'er was a bit hesitant. In her view, the Major General treated the Madam extremely well, almost achieving a level of care that any Alpha couldn't match. Yet, the young Madam always appeared cold and impatient towards the Major General. Even though it was clear that their families were involved in a marriage of convenience, the compatibility between Gu Sijiu and Song Jinzhi should have been high, and they should have gotten along well. Shan Ni'er found it hard to accept young Madam's behavior and felt it was unfair to Gu Sijiu as her subordinate.
"Is she difficult to get along with? I also feel that she doesn't seem like an easy person to talk to. Her face looks as expressionless as wood. She's beautiful, but just a little less so than me."
Listening to Shan Ni'er's description, Gu Sijiu recalled Song Jinzhi's face in her mind. If a perfect score is 100, she would give Song Jinzhi a high score of 99, with the one point deducted because she wasn't as pretty as herself.
Gu Sijiu still didn't know exactly what had happened, why she had come to this world, or where the original owner of this body had gone. She understood the principle of "when in Rome, do as the Romans do." Since she didn't know how to return to her original world, it was better to first figure out the rules of this world and continue being another Gu Sijiu. Song Jinzhi was her fiancée and would likely be the person she spent the most time with, so not knowing much about her would obviously be a disadvantage.
"The young Madam is indeed very beautiful, but Major General... you..." Shan Ni'er hesitated in her words. She felt that during these days in the hospital, the young Madam was the person Major General asked about the most. However, Madam had only visited Major General once at the beginning and hadn't come to visit her again. Thinking about how much Major General liked the young Madam and how indifferent the young Madam seemed towards her, Shan Ni'er felt even more heartbroken.
"Major General, I'll go prepare lunch for you. You should be able to leave the hospital this afternoon." Shan Ni'er didn't say more and left to arrange lunch for the day. She quickly returned, placing Gu Sijiu's lunch on the table in front of her and asking if she needed help. Gu Sijiu shook her head; she had only injured her head and back and could manage to eat on her own.
Gu Sijiu quietly ate the not-so-tasty lunch in front of her. She noticed that this world lacked some skill in "cooking." Despite using excellent ingredients, the taste was not satisfying. Just like in many movies, when technology advances to a certain point, humans tend to lose many of their original abilities.
People here rarely cook seriously, and restaurants no longer hire chefs, instead letting robots handle the cooking. Every household has an automatic cooking machine, so the food produced only reaches a level of "edible." If not, people just drink nutrient solutions to solve their meals. After just a few bites, Gu Sijiu lost her appetite and drank a nutrient solution, asking Shan Ni'er to clear away the food.
After Shan Ni'er cleaned up and saw that her presence was no longer needed, she returned to the military camp. Gu Sijiu went to the bathroom to brush her teeth and then returned to bed, suddenly remembering another important matter. According to her understanding, female Alphas in this world have both primary and secondary s.xual characteristics. The primary s.xual characteristic, developed from the cli.toris, is similar in function to that of males, but she realized she didn't have one.
For the past few days, Gu Sijiu had felt that her body was no different from that of an ordinary woman. She hadn't noticed anything strange while bathing or using the restroom. This puzzled her. Could it be that this part is hidden? The more she thought about it, the more unsettled she became. She hadn't delved into it during her recovery period, but now, she felt it was safer to carefully confirm this detail.
Gu Sijiu sat up, slowly took off her pants and the pure white underwear inside, then looked down and found that the "ugly thing" she had imagined wasn't there. She suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. She nervously reached over and felt around, only to touch a somewhat round little flesh bead. Although she had ma.sturbated before, Gu Sijiu naturally understood what it was, but she always felt that the sensation was slightly larger than what she had felt before, without the outer skin covering it, directly exposed.
As Gu Sijiu touched it, she confirmed once again that she didn't have that so-called primary se.xual characteristic. She breathed a sigh of relief and smiled slightly. After touching a few more times, she found that the little thing in her hand had become slightly warmer, so she quickly withdrew her hand, tightened her legs, and let out a soft hum, feeling that this area seemed more sensitive than she had imagined, as if it could quickly become aroused. Lost in her thoughts, she left her hand between her legs and forgot to take it out. She completely failed to notice that at that moment, Song Jinzhi, who hadn't appeared for several days, was standing at the door, observing all her movements.
Seeing Gu Sijiu with her head down, touching that shameful place with her smile carrying an indescribable strangeness, Song Jinzhi frowned in disgust, wishing she had never entered this room. Gu Sijiu felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. She raised her head, not even managing to wipe the smile off her face before meeting Song Jinzhi's complex gaze.
That feeling, as if she was looking at something dirty?
