The two of them tidied up the dishes and left it to the AI to wash them, then sat together on the sofa. Song Jinzhi poured two cups of hot tea, while Gu Sijiu twirled her cup, somewhat guessing that Song Jinzhi wanted to discuss the matter of their heat period. This situation had come about suddenly, and neither of them was prepared, they had been dragged into the abyss of despair for three whole days without a break.

Gu Sijiu couldn't help but recall those scenes. She looked up at Song Jinzhi, who had reverted to her usual wooden expression. Contrasting her current demeanor with the enthusiastic one during her heat period, Gu Sijiu couldn't help but shiver. Tsk.. this woman really had two faces, one in bed and another out of it. If she hadn't spent that time with Song Jinzhi during the heat period, Gu Sijiu wouldn't have guessed that Song Jinzhi could be like that in bed—stunning and alluring, a hundred times better than her current wooden expression.

"Gu Sijiu, thank you... for helping me these past three days. We're both adults, and I won't pretend this never happened. Besides, you and I have a legal fiancée relationship under the Federal Bureau. If you're willing, I hope we can make an agreement to continue this kind of arrangement every month during the heat period."

Song Jinzhi had rehearsed her words for a long time in her mind. She had hesitated before confirming, but there was no doubt that being with Gu Sijiu in bed had been an accident, yet the outcome of this accident had been wonderful. Once you taste it, you crave more. That was the most intuitive thought of Song Jinzhi after being with Gu Sijiu. The scent of the Alpha was intoxicating, and after their inti.mate contact, the pheromones belonging to Gu Sijiu lingered around her, providing a dual satisfaction both physically and mentally. Even now, Song Jinzhi couldn't help but reminisce about that feeling of merging.

The Omega's heat was frequent and difficult to endure, and long-term suppressants also had side effects. Song Jinzhi had once worried that being inti.mate with Gu Sijiu might lead to uncontrollable accidents, but now, Gu Sijiu's behavior made her feel at ease, and she had kept her promise not to mark her. This was one of the reasons that gave Song Jinzhi peace of mind and encouraged her to make this decision. Given this, why should she suppress herself with suppressants instead of choosing to spend comfortable days with Gu Sijiu? Song Jinzhi asked herself this question in her heart and eventually made her choice.

"So, you mean you still want to be inti.mate with me? Once every month?" Gu Sijiu was slightly taken aback by Song Jinzhi's words, then understood what she meant. Gu Sijiu didn't reject the idea of inti.macy with Song Jinzhi and felt comfortable with her presence. If Song Jinzhi hadn't ignored her at noon, Gu Sijiu would have gladly accepted, but now she felt a bit miffed.

"If you want to do such things with me, why did you treat me like that at noon?" Gu Sijiu held a grudge and still remembered how she had happily gone to call for her, only to be met with a cold shoulder. Seeing Gu Sijiu pouting and turning her face away, waiting to be coaxed, Song Jinzhi felt a bit embarrassed. She hadn't meant to ignore Gu Sijiu, she just didn't know how to face her at that moment.

When Song Jinzhi proposed spending the heat period together, she hadn't considered that Gu Sijiu might refuse. Hearing her say this now made her a bit flustered. She was at a loss for words, her lips slightly parted, then slowly sealed shut. Gu Sijiu noticed that Song Jinzhi remained silent for a while and couldn't help but turn back, finding Song Jinzhi sitting there, her entire face flushed with shyness, resembling a schoolgirl who had made a mistake.

Gu Sijiu was instantly charmed by this look from Song Jinzhi, it was as if she had hit a sweet spot. Song Jinzhi always had this kind of contrast—appearing composed on the outside, yet she could do something as playful as splashing water in the pool. Usually seen as a goddess of restraint, she could be so wild and passionate in bed. Now, that same feeling returned, her ears were red as she couldn't look at Gu Sijiu, and her adorable demeanor made Gu Sijiu's heart soften. Running her fingers through her long hair in annoyance, Gu Sijiu wondered why she felt like she would be devoured by the other person in the future.

"Alright, alright, I never said I wouldn't agree to you. You smell pretty nice, and your body is soft. I... I also quite like doing that with you." Gu Sijiu explained softly. With each word she spoke, Song Jinzhi's face grew redder. Eventually, unable to listen any longer, Song Jinzhi cleared her throat to interrupt Gu Sijiu.

"Since you agree, I have three requests that I hope you can abide by while we maintain this relationship. First: during our time together, you cannot forcibly mark me. Second: you cannot engage in any activities that could lead to pregnancy. Third: during this time, I don't want you to be involved with anyone else." Song Jinzhi said these three requests with a serious face. Seeing her revert to that serious demeanor made Gu Sijiu huff slightly, feeling an inexplicable discomfort in her heart. Unsure why she felt this way, Gu Sijiu, out of spite, thought for a moment and couldn't help but add a little something more.

"I agree to everything you said, but we should not interfere with each other's lives. Who I choose to date is my personal business." After stating her condition, Gu Sijiu looked up at Song Jinzhi, who frowned for a moment before nodding in agreement. Their agreement was thus reached. Song Jinzhi felt a sense of relief, once her tense nerves relaxed, fatigue quickly set in. They hadn't had a proper rest during the three days of their time together, and and Song Jinzhi hadn't slept well during the afternoon nap either, burdened with her thoughts.

"Okay, I'll go upstairs to rest for a bit. Feel free to do as you wish." Song Jinzhi said, and immediately retreated to her room. Seeing her go upstairs, Gu Sijiu didn't plan to linger downstairs either. She went to her room, took a comfortable shower, lay down on her neatly made bed, planning to rest and sleep, but she found herself unable to suppress a smile.

Gu Sijiu didn't understand what was happening to her, just thinking about the continuing inti.macy with Song Jinzhi made her surprisingly look forward to next month. She couldn't quite explain why she was looking forward to such a situation, but in her heart, she set a small goal for herself: to ensure she "enjoyed" their next inti.mate encounter.

As Gu Sijiu closed her eyes to rest, her communication device suddenly lit up. Looking at the caller, she was surprised to see it was Evie, who hadn't been in touch for a while. Gu Sijiu lazily answered the call, immediately noticing that Evie seemed to be at their usual bar, and she could guess the reason for the call.

"Darling, why do you look so drained? Come out for a drink, I've been dying to let loose." Evie said, her makeup heavily applied, beckoning her with a smile. Usually, Gu Sijiu would have jumped at the chance, but today she was too exhausted and just wanted to sleep at home.

"I haven't had a good rest for days, I don't want to go anywhere right now. You can drink by yourself, I'm going to sleep." Gu Sijiu simply hung up the video call completely ignoring Evie's persuasion. Seeing Gu Sijiu hang up so directly, Evie wasn't truly upset. She had come to the bar purely to drink, not to flirt, she simply wanted to enjoy some drinks.

Evie was someone who was used to indulgence, no one could make her do something she didn't like. However, after spending the last half-month attending classes with Wen Qiulan, she felt as if she might burst from the restraint. On one hand, she was drawn in by Wen Qiulan's pleasant scent that she couldn't touch or taste. On the other hand, she had been pretending to be the good girl and hadn't been to the bar in a while.

Today, when Wen Qiulan said she was going out with friends, Evie seized the opportunity to get some fresh air and return to her true self. Sitting at the bar, she ordered her favorite drink and was in good spirits until she suddenly felt like she had swallowed a fly when someone sat next to her.

"Evie, long time no see! Do you remember me?" The speaker was Angela, a female Beta Evie had casually hooked up with before, and she was also Wen Qiulan's ex...

"Ms. Angela, I remember we made it very clear: a qualified one-night stand should act as if they were dead after getting off the bed. What's the matter? Is the money from Dionysus not enough for you?"

Evie showed some displeasure, her words not very pleasant. Angela's previously smiling face stiffened slightly. She admitted that she couldn't forget the taste of Evie because this person was incredibly beautiful in bed. Moreover, Evie seemed like the wealthy type, and greed was a common thought for everyone, Angela was no exception.

"Evie, don't be so heartless. I actually enjoy being with you. I—" Angela wanted to say more, but Evie wasn't interested hearing further. She waved her hand to silence her and stood up to leave the bar. Just as she got up, she saw Wen Qiulan walk in, dressed in a sharp white suit, accompanied by several others.

In Evie's mind, a question mark and an exclamation point slowly formed...
