Seductive Beauty - Chapter 84
Chapter 84
"Wooden Face, breakfast's ready, come down and eat." Gu Sijiu called up to Song Jinzhi for the third time from downstairs, but the other's door remained shut, as if she'd made up her mind not to get up.
Gu Sijiu felt a bit helpless. She'd noticed that as the weather grew colder, Song Jinzhi's bed gluing habit was getting worse by the day. The woman wouldn't obediently crawl out of bed unless she was called several times. Gu Sijiu figured she must have been blind before to think that Song Jinzhi was composed and proper, that she strictly adhered to time. As it turned out, Song Jinzhi wasn't proper at all, she was also lazy as hell.
To make sure Song Jinzhi wouldn't be late, Gu Sijiu had no choice but to go upstairs and retrieve her herself. She took off her apron, hung it in the kitchen, and pushed open the door to Song Jinzhi's room. Ever since the two had been intimate, Song Jinzhi had stopped locking her door. Gu Sijiu often remembered when they'd first started living together, Song Jinzhi would even lock the safety door. Now, though, she could come and go freely.
The room was saturated with Song Jinzhi's pheromones. The pleasant scent of hibiscus flowers wrapped around her nose the moment the door opened, curling Gu Sijiu's lips upward. She stood beside the bed, watching the woman who had curled her body up under the blankets, only a small head peeking out, and couldn't resist poking her cheek.
"Wooden Face, if you don't eat breakfast, I'm going to eat your piggy buns. Get up already." Gu Sijiu's voice had started out loud, but it had softened considerably without her realizing it.
After having her face repeatedly pinched, Song Jinzhi finally could bear the harassment no longer and reached a hand out from inside to swat Gu Sijiu's hand away. The latter discovered that Song Jinzhi seemed to be wearing nothing at all, she was sleeping in the nude. This wasn't the first time Gu Sijiu had uncovered Song Jinzhi's closet pervert habit. She'd accidentally discovered it a few days ago too.
Back then she'd assumed it was a coincidence: maybe Song Jinzhi was out of clean nightgowns to change into? Or maybe she'd felt especially hot that day? Gu Sijiu had made up a few excuses for her, but today, Song Jinzhi was again wearing nothing. Gu Sijiu spotted the black mesh, completely sheer panties draped over the sofa to the side, then looked down at her own hamster print nightgown, and couldn't help but tug the blanket that had slipped down Song Jinzhi's body back up.
"Good morning." It took a good while before Song Jinzhi was fully awake. She rose lazily from the bed, revealing her fair shoulders. Gu Sijiu stole a glance and her ear tips grew hot, so she ducked her head a little lower. Song Jinzhi noticed Gu Sijiu's little reaction. She hooked the corner of her mouth and leaned back against the headboard, using the blanket to barely cover her chest.
"What do you mean 'morning'? It's already nine o'clock, aren't you getting up?" Gu Sijiu looked at Song Jinzhi helplessly, but the other maintained that unhurried, unbothered air.
"I'm the general manager. It doesn't matter if I go in a little late. I'm going to get up now, do you want to watch me get dressed?" Song Jinzhi suddenly lifted her head and raised an eyebrow at Gu Sijiu. Flustered by that look, Gu Sijiu dumbly shook her head and hurried out. She was in such a rush that she actually walked out with her arms and legs swinging in sync on the same side.
Gu Sijiu waited downstairs for a while. Song Jinzhi soon descended, fully washed and dressed. She wore a white suit, a short, waist cinched blazer with matching white trousers. Song Jinzhi's complexion was pale, so white looked incredibly good on her. More importantly, this all white ensemble was worn by her with an air of elegance and nobility. Paired with her pinned up hairstyle, she exuded an overwhelming sense of propriety.
Gu Sijiu had long since noticed that whenever Song Jinzhi went out to work or attend a banquet, she always wrapped herself up tightly. When she sat down across from her to eat breakfast, her every movement radiated a queenly aloofness. Gu Sijiu couldn't help but marvel internally, who would have guessed that this Song Jinzhi, dressed like this, was a bare assed closet pervert when she slept just twenty minutes ago?
"Why do you keep staring at me?" Song Jinzhi picked up a piggy bun and looked up to find Gu Sijiu staring at her in a daze. The woman had clipped her hair up on top of her head with a hair clip, revealing her whole fair little face. Meeting those dark crimson eyes, Song Jinzhi felt her heartbeat quicken. She lowered her head to look at the piggy bun, a futile attempt to hide it.
"It's nothing, I just think... you really are two faced. You dress so properly for work, but when you sleep, you don't even wear your little undies." Gu Sijiu voiced the thought in her mind. Her mouth had just gotten itchy and she wanted to tease Song Jinzhi. Who knew that after hearing her words, the other paused slightly, then smiled at her instead.
"Sleeping naked is the best way to sleep. Since it's just me, why would I wear clothes?" Gu Sijiu had expected Song Jinzhi to come up with some excuse, but she hadn't expected... this person to have grown so thick skinned. Gu Sijiu huffily bit into her red bean bun, unable to retort. Seeing her deflated expression, Song Jinzhi found it even more amusing, and her appetite improved considerably along with it.
This morning, Song Corporation didn't have any pressing matters requiring Song Jinzhi's attention, so she decided it wouldn't matter if she went in during the afternoon. After breakfast, Gu Sijiu had the AI robot clear away the dishes, then tied her apron back on, planning to make some pastries and small snacks herself. The last time she'd casually given Song Jinzhi some, it hadn't even been a full day before the plate of little treats had been completely devoured. Gu Sijiu hadn't expected someone like Song Jinzhi to enjoy that kind of thing, but reality had once again proven her wrong and slapped her in the face.
Watching Gu Sijiu, a faint smile on her lips, seriously arranging pastry molds in the kitchen, Song Jinzhi stood outside with a smile, silently gazing at her. Life now was good. No matter whether for herself or for Gu Sijiu, it was a state both were satisfied with. Regarding the matter of Gu Sijiu's body, Song Jinzhi had already explained it to her parents. The two elders doted on her and had even asked Song Jinzhi if she was willing to annul the engagement. Even if it meant burning bridges with the Gu family, they absolutely wouldn't let her be wronged.
Upon hearing this, Song Jinzhi shook her head. If her parents had proposed such an idea before, she might have agreed. But now, Gu Sijiu had become someone she liked. How could she bear to push this person away amid such rumors and slander? Just as Song Jinzhi was thinking this, the communicator in her pocket lit up. She glanced at the caller and turned to walk out into the garden.
"President Song, I apologize for disturbing you."
"Is there a problem?"
"There's a document that had a small oversight come up last minute. I'm calling to ask for your instruction on whether we can change to an alternative plan."
Staf's somewhat anxious voice came through from the other end. Song Jinzhi acknowledged and waited for her to explain. Whenever it involved work, Song Jinzhi would enter an extremely focused state and would also ignore the people and things around her. She leaned sideways against a round wooden post nearby, earnestly discussing with Staf how the project plan should be revised. When Gu Sijiu walked out, this was the scene she witnessed.
The late morning sunlight was abundant and warm, falling on a person and giving the illusion that their whole body was glowing. Song Jinzhi's profile was beautiful. Her lips, coated in a light orange lipstick, opened and closed gently. Her soft voice, warm and steady, was incomparably captivating. Gu Sijiu stared blankly. Her feet, beyond her control, carried her toward Song Jinzhi. The other heard her footsteps and turned her head, offering her a faint smile before continuing to discuss the work matter.
Gu Sijiu stood quietly to the side, watching her, yet her heart was far from as calm as her demeanor. Inside her chest, powerful heartbeats thumped loudly. That feeling, that unprecedented flutter made Gu Sijiu's eyes sting with heat. She liked her so much. Just looking at her stirred an uncontrollable desire to get closer, to be intimate with her.
What was wrong with her? It wasn't as if she'd never seen beautiful women before, yet because of Song Jinzhi's lovely demeanor right now, she couldn't tear her eyes away. When Song Jinzhi finally finished the call, Gu Sijiu shuffled over to stand before her in small steps. Song Jinzhi looked at her, wanting to ask her something, when the other suddenly stood on tiptoe and planted a kiss on her lips.
The two were roughly the same barefoot height, but because Gu Sijiu was wearing slippers while Song Jinzhi wore high heels, the height difference was stretched considerably. Dappled light filtered through the leaves, scattered randomly across Gu Sijiu's head. Her deep cherry colored long hair was lightened a great deal by the sunlight. Her fair cheeks were slightly flushed, like a pink apple, fresh and tender.
She approached her timidly, cautiously, standing on tiptoe. Her slender calves were taut, and because she was too nervous, she unconsciously clutched the hem of her dress as she kissed her just like that. The kiss was clean and simple, carrying Gu Sijiu's own flavor and scent. That faint peppermint mingled with lemon, as if a tiny pebble had been dropped into a restless carbonated drink, small, but effortlessly disrupting the existing restlessness, merging into a new kind of heat.
The kiss was brief, but the passion it ignited was unexpectedly long. The person before her was afraid and very nervous. The corners of her eyes were tinged with shy red, and her closed lashes trembled. That posture looked incredibly beautiful, and unbelievably enticing. Especially the tiptoe stance; it made Gu Sijiu look just like a little hamster begging for its owner's affection, adorable beyond words.
The kiss lingered briefly on her lips before fading as quickly as it came. Song Jinzhi gazed intensely at Gu Sijiu. She was about to say something, but the other quickly stepped back, then acted as if nothing had happened, hastily heading toward the house.
"Oh my, I just remembered the cookies are still baking. I'm going in." Gu Sijiu's senses returned. Remembering what she'd just done, her entire face flushed completely red. Watching her flee back into the house as if escaping, Song Jinzhi touched the lips that had been kissed. First she looked thoughtful, but then the corner of her lips curled up, laughter lingering on her face.
This Alpha really was excessively sweet.
