Seductive Beauty - Chapter 76

Chapter 76

"Is this enough?" Song Jinzhi cradled several bags of nutrient supplements in her arms and handed them to Gu Sijiu, who gave a low hum of acknowledgment and reached out. Song Jinzhi glanced at her, then helped open the supplements and placed them in her hands. Gu Sijiu didn't refuse. She lifted the supplements, gulping them down noisily, her cheeks puffing out on both sides.

Seeing her drink so urgently, Song Jinzhi felt the hollow ache in her own stomach grow more pronounced. She opened another supplement, sat quietly on the edge of the bed, and drank it, each of them replenishing the fluids they needed. The three day heat period passed without incident. Compared to the previous times, Gu Sijiu felt far more exhausted this time around. In the past, she had always been the one attending to Song Jinzhi. Though her hands and mouth would ache unbearably, at least her body never felt this utterly drained. This time she had been on the receiving end, and Gu Sijiu discovered that the fatigue that followed such pleasure was hardly trivial.

Her waist and legs ached as if they no longer belonged to her. Her hands and mouth, overused from too many repetitions, were plagued by a limp weakness. The sensitive apex of her thighs still throbbed faintly. Gu Sijiu didn't dare shift her body carelessly, because the slightest movement would send residual glandular fluid seeping from the tiny opening on her nub. Gu Sijiu closed her eyes, unable to stop herself from recalling the ferocity of those three days.

An Omega's stamina during heat is boundless, and Song Jinzhi's heat had ignited her own ardor. The first day, Song Jinzhi's fevers came frequently, and for the most part, Gu Sijiu was the one satisfying her. Yet by the second and third day, a well fed Omega became extraordinarily vigorous. Gu Sijiu was pinned to the bed by her time and again, taken and claimed. Countless times, she bloomed under Song Jinzhi's hands, on her mouth, and even deep inside her body.

After three days of such intense exertion, Gu Sijiu felt parched. If the fluid Song Jinzhi had lost was just one measure, then hers was easily two. Gu Sijiu had already downed several supplements just moments ago, yet she still felt a scratchy dryness in her throat. Of course, it was also possible that holding back her voice, refusing to let sounds escape, had strained her throat until it was raw.

"I'll go tidy up. You rest for a while." Song Jinzhi had only drunk one nutrient supplement, but it had restored a measure of her strength. She turned to look at Gu Sijiu, who was already drifting toward sleep, and her voice softened unconsciously. Gu Sijiu was simply too exhausted to get up. At this moment, she wanted nothing more than to sleep. Gu Sijiu hummed a vague response, clutching Song Jinzhi's pillow and nuzzling against it. Seeing that small gesture, Song Jinzhi couldn't resist reaching out to stroke her face before rising and leaving the room.

She activated the AI robots, instructing them to clean the utter disarray of the room, then opened the windows to air it out and turned the air purifier to its highest setting. Once all of this was done, Song Jinzhi lay in her own bedroom, yet a sensation like a tiny ant crawling across her heart left her deeply unsettled. Those three days had been filled with beauty and novelty for Song Jinzhi. She had never known that Gu Sijiu, unfurling in the throes of passion, could look so breathtaking.

Seeing her sent to the peak of release over and over beneath her touch, watching her forcibly suppress her pleasure and refuse to cry out until her face flushed bright red. When the pleasure became too overwhelming, Gu Sijiu would weep, sobbing quietly, curling into her embrace in a way that was the exact image of a bullied kitten, making Song Jinzhi's heart melt completely. In those moments, a sense of protectiveness and possessiveness surged within Song Jinzhi, as if she were the Alpha, and Gu Sijiu was the Omega she had marked. The more Song Jinzhi reminisced, the more she realized how hopelessly, bewitchingly fond she was of that side of Gu Sijiu. She pressed a hand to her forehead, let out a sigh, and the corner of her lips curved upward.

Both of them were utterly spent. Now that they could rest, they slept from the early morning hours until the sun blazed high in the afternoon sky before finally rising. The afterglow of a perfect bout of lovemaking rewards the body with a sense of utter relaxation, both physical and mental. Stretching her limbs, Gu Sijiu walked downstairs and happened upon Song Jinzhi sitting there, drinking coffee.

"You're drinking coffee on an empty stomach again. What do you feel like eating tonight? I'll cook."

Gu Sijiu found that upon waking, she was hungry again. She decided to make a lavish meal, a reward for herself and for Song Jinzhi, who had brought her such incredible comfort these past two days. Well... when Wooden Face took her, she was really quite good, using her mouth, her fingers, and even clenching her body around her... At that thought, Gu Sijiu suddenly realized something and a slight frown creased her brow.

"Gu Sijiu, I might have to go out tonight. I made plans earlier to have dinner with a friend. I've already rescheduled once, and this time it wouldn't be appropriate to change it again. If you don't mind, you could come along and eat with us." Song Jinzhi had only remembered upon checking her communicator that her appointment with Wen Qiulan was set for tonight. If not for the three day heat throwing her entire sense of time into disarray, she certainly wouldn't have forgotten. Wen Qiulan had said she wanted to introduce her lover tonight. For selfish reasons, Song Jinzhi didn't want to go alone. If Gu Sijiu could accompany her, that would naturally be best.

"Your friend invited you. Is it all right for me to come?"

"It's fine. The other party will be two people as well."

"In that case, I'll come along. Wooden Face... there's something I want to ask you."

Gu Sijiu sat down on the sofa, her expression somewhat serious. If she remembered correctly, during those three days of heat, she and Song Jinzhi had tried positions that were far more intimate. She had lost herself inside Song Jinzhi's body several times, and her glandular fluid had likely been left inside her. That had already violated the original agreement between them. But in those moments, they had both been in a state of extreme arousal. Gu Sijiu hadn't stopped to consider so much, and neither had Song Jinzhi. Now, in hindsight, Gu Sijiu felt a deep pang of guilt and self reproach. She felt she had truly been too wretched this time. She had clearly promised not to engage in any act that could lead to impregnation, yet she had... left her glandular fluid inside her.

"Wooden Face, my... my glandular fluid..." Gu Sijiu's face flushed slightly as she spoke. She didn't quite know how to articulate such a thing, but it was obvious that Song Jinzhi understood what she was leaving unsaid. Realizing what she was asking, and noticing Gu Sijiu's gaze furtively flicking toward the space between her legs, Song Jinzhi's own face reddened in turn. She bit her lower lip and lowered her head, avoiding Gu Sijiu's eyes.

"It's fine. I took emergency measures. Don't worry." Song Jinzhi's voice was very soft, but Gu Sijiu still heard her. Learning that she was all right, Gu Sijiu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Yet just beneath that relief, a strange, inexplicable sense of loss lingered. She understood that her current relationship with Song Jinzhi was purely that of bed partners, a far cry from lovers, separated by ten thousand eight thousand li.

What Song Jinzhi had done was entirely normal. Yet Gu Sijiu simply couldn't help wondering: if she and Song Jinzhi were to have a little baby, what would it be like? While she couldn't guess the personality, a child between herself and Jinzhi would surely be exceptionally beautiful, wouldn't it? Gu Sijiu let her mind wander aimlessly. When she came back to herself, she found the thought far too distant. Song Jinzhi didn't even like her. Why would she want to have a baby with her?

"Wooden Face, what time is tonight's appointment?"

"We still have two hours. Let's get ready first. We need to mask the scent on us as well."

Song Jinzhi and Gu Sijiu each went to tidy themselves up. Before walking out the door, they also sprayed some air freshener. Each still carried the lingering scent of the other, along with that ambiguous fragrance of a heat period. If they went out without something to mask it, people on the street would immediately guess what they had been doing. The two of them arrived at the hotel at the agreed upon time. Before coming, Gu Sijiu had no idea which friend Song Jinzhi intended to introduce her to. When she walked in and saw Yi Wei chatting and laughing with a female Alpha seated by the window, she had a vague feeling... that it couldn't be such a coincidence, could it?

However, reality often has a way of being exactly what one hopes it isn't. Watching Song Jinzhi's steps falter briefly before she headed straight toward Yi Wei's table, Gu Sijiu's attention swiftly shifted from Yi Wei to the woman beside her, Wen Qiulan. So, the good friend Wooden Face had spoken of was this Alpha?

"A Jin, you've arrived. And this is..." Wen Qiulan smiled when she saw Song Jinzhi, only then noticing that someone else was by her side. "This is Gu Sijiu, my fiancee." Song Jinzhi introduced her to Wen Qiulan, though her gaze fell upon Yi Wei instead. She was no stranger to Yi Wei; one could say she remembered her vividly. Although Yi Wei's attire and makeup today were entirely different from that day, her whole aura altered, Song Jinzhi recognized who she was in a single glance.

"Hello, Miss Wen. Yi, it's been a while." Gu Sijiu greeted Wen Qiulan and cast a smile at Yi Wei. The four of them sat down together and clarified their relationships. Discovering that they were all old acquaintances, they could only marvel at the wondrous nature of fate. Before arriving, Yi Wei had already heard from Wen Qiulan that the friend they were meeting was Song Jinzhi. She had guessed to some degree that it couldn't be a mere coincidence of names; it had to be the one Gu Sijiu liked. And indeed, it was.

Over the past few days, Yi Wei had also heard about Gu Sijiu's situation. She hadn't expected the other party to be an Alpha with a physical deficiency, and she was curious about what Song Jinzhi's view on the matter might be. Now, seeing the two of them appear together, Yi Wei's sensitive nose picked up the scent of their entangled heat lingering on them. Both had sprayed fragrance masking agents, and most people likely wouldn't notice anything amiss. But Yi Wei was far too familiar with that particular scent. Almost the instant they sat down, she knew they had been intimate and that it had been intense.

"Tsk, seems like you've been doing well lately. All healed up?" Yi Wei teased Gu Sijiu. In truth, she rather wanted to offer some comfort, though it wasn't something she could say outright at the moment. "Yeah, just a minor injury like that. It's nothing." Gu Sijiu replied with a smile, her gaze sweeping appraisingly over Yi Wei and Wen Qiulan. She could tell that Wen Qiulan and Yi Wei gave off completely different impressions, and she could also guess that the Alpha Yi Wei had mentioned pursuing was none other than Wen Qiulan.

In terms of appearance and temperament, Gu Sijiu would absolutely give Wen Qiulan full marks. She spoke with courtesy and poise, composed yet at ease. Her features were gentle, and her entire being seemed to carry an ethereal grace. Gu Sijiu's first impression of Wen Qiulan was quite favorable. Yet then she thought of Yi Wei's roving, flirtatious nature, and instantly felt that a beautiful flower had been plucked by that poisonous bee, Yi Wei.

The main purpose of this meeting, for Wen Qiulan and Song Jinzhi, was to introduce their respective "partners" to one another. Thanks to the presence of two such talkative individuals as Yi Wei and Gu Sijiu, the meal was far from dull.

Yi Wei and Gu Sijiu both enjoyed drinking, and with the pleasant atmosphere tonight, it was hard to avoid having a bit too much.

Gu Sijiu rose to go to the restroom but was jostled by a passing server. After three days of being thoroughly worked over by Song Jinzhi during her heat, and now with the alcohol making her unsteady on her feet, Gu Sijiu pitched directly to one side. Wen Qiulan, who was sitting beside her, quickly stood and caught her.

"Miss Gu, are you all right?" Wen Qiulan steadied her with a hand on her shoulder, her other arm wrapped around her waist. They were both Alphas, so Wen Qiulan didn't see any need for excessive caution. Yet in the eyes of Yi Wei and Song Jinzhi, the sight looked utterly, inexplicably strange.

They watched as Gu Sijiu, her cheeks flushed, was held in Wen Qiulan's arms, the two of them leaning close together. And given that today they were wearing dresses of black and white respectively, the picture they presented was so well matched it sent a sour pang through the onlookers.

Yi Wei was the first to rise, pushing Gu Sijiu out of Wen Qiulan's embrace. Song Jinzhi was not far behind, hastily pulling Gu Sijiu out of Wen Qiulan's arms and into her own. Wen Qiulan watched, slightly bemused, as Gu Sijiu was pushed and tugged back and forth, then quietly sat back down in her seat.

"Mm... Teacher Wen, thank you for catching me." Gu Sijiu, the person in question, was utterly oblivious to the ambiguous intimacy of what had just happened. She simply felt woozy, her entire body light and floating. Seeing that she was drunk, Song Jinzhi gathered her into her arms, holding her protectively. The evening's dinner concluded perfectly under these circumstances. As they parted, Gu Sijiu even exchanged contact information with Wen Qiulan. Song Jinzhi helped Gu Sijiu into the car. Seeing the person slumped against the seat, her head lolling from side to side with every bump and jostle of the ride, she steadied her body and settled her down to lie on her lap.

"Mm... Wooden Face, so comfy." Gu Sijiu clearly adored this position of lying down. She stretched out her body and nuzzled her cheek against her leg. "If it's comfortable, lie there a while longer. You can lie there as long as you want." Song Jinzhi's gaze softened with an added layer of tenderness. She gently stroked Gu Sijiu's cheek, a warmth flickering in her eyes. When it came to this person, Gu Sijiu, she truly found herself at more and more of a loss with each passing day.
