Being forcibly kissed was not a new experience for Gu Sijiu, but this time her state of mind was different from every past instance. She didn't understand what game Song Jinzhi was playing. She had deliberately distanced herself before, and now she had the nerve to forcibly kiss her. The resentment and anger in Gu Sijiu's heart made her bite Song Jinzhi's lips hard, her hands restlessly pushing her away, and her legs kicking against Song Jinzhi's body.
Gu Sijiu bit down hard, immediately tasting blo.od. Despite this, Song Jinzhi instead felt a sense of increasing determination, kissing even more passionately. Her wet, soft tongue repeatedly swept across Gu Sijiu's lips and tongue, causing a tingling sensation that made Gu Sijiu's eyes burn. Gradually, the force of her resistance weakened. The Alpha narrowed her eyes slightly, with tear stains still lingering at the corners. Even if she could hide her expression and her gaze, she couldn't hide the fondness for her in her pheromones.
After the kiss, Song Jinzhi slowly released Gu Sijiu. Both of their lips were stained with blo.od. Gu Sijiu couldn't help but lick her lower lip, tasting the blo.od. She opened her eyes to look at Song Jinzhi's bitten lip, then awkwardly shifted her gaze away. Noticing her small movement, Song Jinzhi's gaze softened, and she hugged the now-calm Gu Sijiu.
"A'jiu, I'm not playing with your feelings, nor am I playing any hot-and-cold games like you said. I'm just very scared, I've always been very scared of you." At this moment, Song Jinzhi had to say what she had been hiding in her heart. She had originally wanted to wait for Gu Sijiu to confess first. But just now, the other woman had already expressed her liking for her, so Song Jinzhi didn't plan to continue keeping a distance between them.
Gu Sijiu's crying just now had pained Song Jinzhi. She couldn't help but think that on the night she had deliberately not returned on her birthday, this person might have also hidden alone in the room, crying helplessly like she had just done. Gu Sijiu, a person who was both unfamiliar and familiar to Song Jinzhi. She didn't understand why Gu Sijiu had become like a different person just because of amnesia.
She had become too good, too gentle, and too adorable. Song Jinzhi had never seen an Alpha who loved beauty like her. She would make many foods that Song Jinzhi couldn't have imagined. Subtle tenderness permeated Song Jinzhi's heart, making it impossible for her not to like her.
These were clearly all good things, but Gu Sijiu herself was the most unstable bomb.
"Scared of me? Why are you scared of me?" Hearing Song Jinzhi's words, Gu Sijiu finally stopped being angry and decided to have a serious conversation.
"A'jiu, perhaps you don't remember what happened between us before, but I remember it all clearly. The you from before wasn't like this. We had too many unpleasant encounters, times when I almost died at your hands. I'm very scared that after you recover all your memories, you'll become like you were before. That kind of thing... I'm too scared, so scared that I don't even dare to think about it."
Song Jinzhi frankly stated the reason for her deepest concern. She could feel Gu Sijiu's body stiffen after she spoke, then gradually relaxed. Not knowing how Gu Sijiu would react, she then felt a warm hand touch her head from above, gently and soothingly ruffling her hair.
"Jinzhi, it's because I didn't consider this that so many misunderstandings arose. Yes... I shouldn't forget what that scu.mbag Gu Sijiu did to you. She hurt you so much, how could I forget the pain she caused you." Now, Gu Sijiu finally understood the reason for Song Jinzhi's hot and cold attitude. She had originally thought that the other woman was deliberately toying with her, but all her doubts were now answered.
As expected, it was still the trouble left behind by the original scu.mbag owner. Every time Gu Sijiu thought of the original owner's actions, she felt a burning hatred. Coupled with the fact that she and Song Jinzhi had experienced so many twists and turns because of her this time, Gu Sijiu felt even more anger. She knew that her words just now could easily raise suspicion, but she didn't plan to tell Song Jinzhi about her situation.
It wasn't that she didn't trust Song Jinzhi, but the matter of her soul transmigrating to another world was too unbelievable. Moreover, she wasn't currently certain whether the soul transfer could be kept completely secret without being discovered. If she told Song Jinzhi, she would become even more uneasy and worried, and if her identity were discovered one day, it might even implicate Song Jinzhi. Rather than that, it was better for her to be the only one who knew. Even if there were accidents, she would bear them herself.
"A'jiu, I didn't mean to blame you. Perhaps I shouldn't have said some of those things, but ever since you lost your memory, I've always treated the current you and the past you as two different people. You are different. It's the current Gu Sijiu that I like, not that crazy person from before. Would it bother you if I viewed you this way?"
Song Jinzhi spoke the truth. She still resented the former Gu Sijiu, but she couldn't bring herself to hate the person in front of her. Song Jinzhi didn't know if Gu Sijiu would mind her treating her as two different people. Unexpectedly, after she finished speaking, Gu Sijiu suddenly laughed. The laughter sounded genuinely happy.
"Jinzhi, I like what you said, and I'm willing for you to do so. The former Gu Sijiu is already dead. The one who appears before you now is a different Gu Sijiu. But if you think that saying these words will appease me and won't make me angry anymore, then you're greatly mistaken."
After talking things out, Gu Sijiu's tone became much lighter. Hearing her being a bit tsundere again, Song Jinzhi was willing to give Gu Sijiu this opportunity today, especially since she had made her cry.
"A'jiu, it was my fault for not telling you these things sooner." Song Jinzhi said gently. Upon hearing this, Gu Sijiu let out a satisfied hum and turned over to prepare for sleep. Seeing that she didn't say whether she forgave her or not, Song Jinzhi hugged her from behind, kissed the back of her neck, and then licked her pheromone gland with her tongue.
"What are you doing? Stop messing around." Gu Sijiu squirmed as she was tickled by Song Jinzhi's actions.
"I just want to make it up to you because earlier... you didn't get to feel good." Song Jinzhi said meaningfully, her hands slipping under the covers to squeeze Gu Sijiu's perky bottom. At this provocative touch, Gu Sijiu let out a sound but still managed to pull away.
"You've angered me so much that I don't even want to anymore. Just go to sleep. If you touch me again, I'll kick you out." Gu Sijiu finally regained her imposing aura. Before, she was always the one being kicked out by Song Jinzhi. Now, it was finally her turn to be in charge.
"Okay, okay, I won't touch you." Song Jinzhi said. "Then... A'jiu, what is our relationship? Are we lovers now?" Song Jinzhi asked cautiously. She felt that the process of their relationship had been quite extraordinary. Despite numerous encounters in bed, their relationship had not been officially defined.
"Who said that? I haven't agreed yet." Gu Sijiu continued to act aloof and stubborn. But as soon as she said that, she heard Song Jinzhi give a cold "Oh" and then get up silently to leave. Seeing how easily she was teased, Gu Sijiu instantly felt guilty. She hurriedly got up, grabbed Song Jinzhi's hand, and held it tightly.
"Hey, are you angry? I didn't mean I disagreed. I just wanted to experience being coaxed for once. Song Jinzhi, you're not that petty, are you? We like each other, so of course we're lovers. Not only lovers, we'll get married soon. Jinzhi, I like you so much. You have no idea how many times I've imagined us getting married."
Gu Sijiu confessed once again without thinking, pouring out all her feelings. Hearing these words, although they weren't flowery sweet talk, made Song Jinzhi feel extremely pleased. She secretly curved the corners of her lips into a smile but pulled Gu Sijiu's hand away and continued walking towards the door. This time, Gu Sijiu panicked. She ran down, na.ked, and clung to Song Jinzhi, refusing to let go.
"Wooden Face, what's wrong? Are you angry?" Gu Sijiu felt like she had dug her own grave. Why did she have to be so stubborn?
"No, I just feel a bit hungry and wanted to find some nutritional supplements." Song Jinzhi said softly. Hearing this, Gu Sijiu then realized it was already past 11 PM. They had just been busy for a few hours and hadn't had dinner, so it was indeed understandable to feel hungry.
"Then don't drink the nutritional supplements. How about I make you a late-night snack?" Gu Sijiu said in a coaxing tone. Seeing her blushing face as she covered her body with one hand while using the other to tug on her, afraid she would leave, Song Jinzhi's eyes flashed with a hint of secret joy, and she nodded. Then, she watched Gu Sijiu go back to put on underwear, then slipped into a hamster-print nightgown to busy herself in the kitchen.
Standing at the doorway, Song Jinzhi quietly admired Gu Sijiu's focused face. Even though it was just a late-night snack, Gu Sijiu prepared it meticulously. Song Jinzhi suddenly remembered a line from a drama she had watched as a child: "Never reject someone who is willing to make you a late-night snack at night. Just standing at the kitchen doorway and seeing their busy figure, all your unhappiness will disappear." Looking at Gu Sijiu, Song Jinzhi couldn't help but walk forward and hug her from behind.
"A'jiu, I forgot to formally respond to your confession earlier."
I like you too.
