The Senior Student (female) Is Not Human - Chapter 55

Chapter 55: Provocation

“Is the Cream Puff leaking filling?”

When Jiang Xi-yao’s cool kiss, as requested, switched targets, Xie Shiwei let out a soft sigh of relief.

A slightly cool tongue curiously swept up and down the new area, sending a ticklish sensation through her heart.

She involuntarily felt anticipation, even exposing her body more.

—But everything suddenly came to naught.

The girl’s eyes were covered with a light-colored strip of fabric. She lightly bit her lower lip, her flushed cheeks holding shy expectation, but she couldn’t see the woman currently leaning over her, whose lips held a malicious, wicked smile.

The next moment.

Sharp, bone-white incisors replaced the soft tongue and bit down fiercely!

“Aaaaaaaah!”

A sweet, nearly melting, tearful scream abruptly echoed in the room!

Jiang Xi-yao, however, let out a satisfied, low chuckle.

She only then leaned back in, gently and affectionately licking the tender flesh, where her teeth marks were now imprinted.

Even the most obedient dog, the first thing it does when given a new toy is leave its scent on it; the sharp canine teeth marks are an excellent territorial marker.

—Furthermore, Jiang Xi-yao was not obedient.

She smiled, licking with a soothing rhythm, yet pretending to be surprised as she peered at the teeth marks:

“Oh. My girlfriend, why are you crying again?”

“Didn’t you ask me to bite here? How is it that even with your eyes covered, so many tears are flowing out?”

Xie Shiwei was sobbing breathlessly.

Her eye sockets beneath the cloth strip felt warm and wet. That moisture was quickly absorbed, leaving only the delicate coolness that the fabric could never warm. It was like a mint-flavored steam eye mask.

After crying for a long time, Xie Shiwei couldn’t even distinguish whether it was absorbing her tears or merely blocking them.

It caused her tears to be congested there, forcing them to rush towards another exit on her body.

“There’s so much.”

She heard Jiang Xi-yao’s sigh-like compliment:

“Will I be able to drink it all night?”

As the woman spoke, the cool, slick surface of the tongue swept over her again.

Once more, Xie Shiwei vaguely recalled the Green Tongue ice pops she ate as a child.

She loved to lick and hold it from before the ice had melted, always reluctant to bite, until this moment, she was being retaliated against by the ice pops of her childhood.

The wind howled outside the window, and in this weather, she had to endure that icy, slick sensation contrasting with her body’s feverish temperature.

The coolness gently pressed in.

Like the way she would lightly touch it with her lips to test it when she first unwrapped it, afraid of her tongue sticking to the ice pop.

Except.

Because Xie Shiwei was now overly sensitive to the cold and refused to “eat,” the ice pop was actively seducing her instead.

The ice pop rubbed and circled against her soft lips, freezing her until she was rigid, without even the strength to refuse.

Hot meeting cold, the flow of water became the trace of melting ice.

Until it tried to push inside on its own accord—

“Ha ah…”

Xie Shiwei’s voice became intermittent, as if she was too congested to produce sound smoothly.

She didn’t remember what time she finally fell asleep.

But the continuous “tsk tsk” sounds by her ear, like a cat drinking water, lasted long into her dreams.

…

When Xie Shiwei woke up the next day, she felt utterly exhausted.

She lay still, staring at the jade-white fingertips resting on her wrist. Jiang Xi-yao must have worried about bruises from being tied for too long last night and massaged it for her after removing the cord.

Now, only a spreading, faint redness remained around her wrist.

But what was the use of massaging this insignificant area?

She hurt everywhere else!

For a moment, Xie Shiwei even suspected that Jiang Xi-yao had “done it” to her while she was asleep!

…Was this truly the experience before the final step?

No.

If they really went all the way one day, would she even survive?

A soft laugh came from behind her.

Jiang Xi-yao heard her girlfriend’s collapsing thoughts loud and clear. After putting a slight distance between them, she saw the sunlight shining on them from the window. She raised her hand and suddenly pressed her girlfriend’s bent knee to the side.

Xie Shiwei was startled: “Stop it…!”

Stop tormenting her. From last night until now, she had barely a piece of good flesh left, top to bottom.

Jiang Xi-yao said with a bright smile: “Golden.”

“What?”

Xie Shiwei lay in the soft bedding, not knowing what she meant.

Jiang Xi-yao didn’t bother to explain. She just pressed against her from behind, lay on top of her, hugged her contentedly, and said:

“It was silver last night, very pretty. Now the sun is shining on it, turning it golden, also very pretty.”

“I want to keep seeing such a beautiful sight.”

So, she wouldn’t let Xie Shiwei die too quickly. She wanted Xie Shiwei to see many more rising suns.

Xie Shiwei soon found out what the “sight” she spoke of was.

Because the physical purchase of New Year’s goods failed spectacularly yesterday, Xie Shiwei vaguely realized that it was too dangerous for her and her girlfriend to go out, whether alone or together. So, today she decided to shop online.

The moment she got out of bed—

She felt like a broken faucet.

Xie Shiwei looked down.

She was still standing in the sunlight. The noon sun had shone on her for so long that her skin had turned faintly pink. But more obvious than that was the shimmering trail of crystal-clear moisture, reflecting the light as gold.

Jiang Xi-yao, who had finished washing up, leaned against the bedroom door, pretending to be surprised as she watched her:

“Is that… the Cream Puff leaking filling?”

Xie Shiwei: “!”

Jiang Xi-yao smiled proudly, the tear mole on her cheek a dazzling red.

“Makes sense. A Cream Puff that’s been bitten can’t possibly return to its original state.”

Xie Shiwei rushed over to hit her in frustration.

But the weak animal with no killing power, even its anger was just a cute, futile display of claws and teeth.

Jiang Xi-yao contentedly caught her. As Xie Shiwei bit down on her shoulder, the dark-haired beauty turned her head to look at her girlfriend and suddenly realized:

“Do you want to leave a mark on me too?”

Feeling the girl’s weak force, which was barely more than a tickle, Jiang Xi-yao patiently instructed:

“Bite harder.”

“Even if you don’t bite through the flesh, even if you don’t reach the bone, you have to at least leave an imprint—deep enough so that I can keep it forever.”

Jiang Xi-yao previously sought perfect flawlessness. Even when she lured her prey to kill and dissect her, she equally resented those people. How dare they wantonly destroy her perfect appearance?

Those wastes who dared to destroy her beauty and harm her body deserved to die!

Yet now, Jiang Xi-yao squinted her eyes, determined to remember the shape of Xie Shiwei’s teeth marks.

During the previous hospital check-up, she had meticulously observed the shape of each of Xie Shiwei’s teeth. Her girlfriend’s front teeth weren’t noticeably wide, but her right canine tooth was slightly tilted…

She seriously replayed this memory repeatedly, aiming for this skin to automatically retain the shape of Xie Shiwei’s mark when she was reborn later.

Jiang Xi-yao thought of the future rebirth scene. When she woke up from a cold sewer, an abandoned trash can, or damp soil, the first thing she would see was the mark belonging to Xie Shiwei on her left shoulder.

The red mole on her cheek started thumping again.

Like it! Love it!

However, Xie Shiwei’s surging anger was scattered by her few words.

The girl, who was already unused to hurting others, felt a phantom pain just hearing her talk about flesh and bone. Hearing her say to bite deep and leave a mark, Xie Shiwei immediately let go.

“No.”

Jiang Xi-yao’s smile froze: “Why not?”

Xie Shiwei looked at her with worry.

“It’s hard to find work outside now. Scars like that are not respectable. If you want to keep it forever, you’d have to get a tattoo, right? You’re a junior now, the time for resumes and internships. Tattoos disqualify you from civil service exams. You are not allowed to get one.”

Jiang Xi-yao: “?”

She stared at Xie Shiwei in shock: “When did I say I was taking the civil service exam?”

Xie Shiwei said resolutely: “You have a chance until you’re thirty-five. You don’t want to take it now, but what if you want to later? Don’t be so absolute. In short, you are not allowed.”

After saying that, Xie Shiwei even raised her hand and rubbed the spot she had just bitten, trying to completely erase the faint mark she had made.

When Jiang Xi-yao looked down, all that remained was a blurry, light redness.

She nearly cracked with frustration!

“You actually refuse to bite me? Xie Shiwei! You refuse to leave a mark on me?”

Xie Shiwei had already closed the bathroom door but could still hear her loud anger outside.

【Leave what mark? Is my Senior just reading too much ABO literature? Wait, no, she really does have a special scent like an Omega, but the problem is I’m not an Alpha who can bite her scent gland or mark her…】

【Besides! The marks written about in those stories look painful! I don’t want that kind of thing!】

By the bathroom door.

Jiang Xi-yao heard the girl’s murmuring clearly.

She had long known that Xie Shiwei was different from those other people; she wouldn’t harm her recklessly and didn’t like doing such things, but she was still deeply unhappy.

Before, she was unhappy because the way Xie Shiwei was being seduced was wrong. Now, she was even more unhappy because Xie Shiwei was completely disobeying her!

So, when the girl finished washing up and opened the door, she was met with Jiang Xi-yao’s resentful face.

And her mournful whispers:

“You actually won’t bite me, you refuse to bite me, Xie Shiwei Xie Shiwei Xie Shiwei—”

The rest of her words were cut off by the girl holding her cheeks and leaning in for a kiss.

The light kiss carried the fresh scent of toothpaste. Xie Shiwei kissed her once and pulled back: “For you, saying the words ‘bite’ separately is okay, but biting is not.”

The girl’s eyes curved in a smile: “Do you want it?”

Jiang Xi-yao was silent.

She subconsciously imagined the girl using that soft, pink tongue to lick this skin…

“Bip-bop.”

Jiang Xi-yao instantly stepped back a large pace.

Xie Shiwei was stunned, showing a look of disappointment: “Even though I haven’t had any practical experience, can’t I just lick on the outside? Don’t you like this?”

“Bip-bop,” “Bip-bop,” “Bip-bop”…

Damn it!

The more she listened to the girl, the more her skin couldn’t help but crack.

Even the red mole on her cheek started to swell and try to push out, desperate to leap out of this skin. It only wanted to throb, nakedly, in front of Xie Shiwei!

Yet, around this person, Jiang Xi-yao couldn’t absorb any malice to quickly repair the damage. So, she unhesitatingly turned and ran into the study, even locking the door.

Xie Shiwei: “…?”

Was she shy? Or did she genuinely dislike it?

She blinked in confusion.

Xie Shiwei even found herself wondering if Jiang Xi-yao had some unpleasant experience in a previous relationship and didn’t like being treated that way.

Ah, damn it, which thoughtless person dated the goddess without improving their skills and left such a deep psychological shadow on such a beautiful woman?

Xie Shiwei picked up her phone to place an online order. She entered the New Year’s goods live stream to buy the festive flowers she didn’t get yesterday. Seeing the rain starting to fall outside, she remembered a beautiful park in the city that was supposedly stunning when it rained.

So, she walked over to the study door and knocked.

“Do you like going out in the rain? Do you want to go for a walk today?”

Truthfully, Xie Shiwei didn’t like rainy days herself.

It’s hard for a poor person to like the rain because the rain means shoes that get soaked when walking through puddles and can’t be changed, umbrellas that leak after a few uses, splashes from passing cars, and the terrible mood that comes with thinking about all of it.

She had never leisurely enjoyed any scenery.

When the rich sit comfortably in their houses, hearing the rain patter, they see those scurrying figures, smile, take a picture, and say: “The rain is really pouring.”

But Xie Shiwei couldn’t take a picture because she was the one scurrying. She was the scenery the rich smiled at.

It wasn’t until she started dating Jiang Xi-yao, with this person by her side, that she suddenly wanted to know if a rainy day was truly so beautiful.

“Girlfriend? Jiang Xi-yao? Jiang-jiang? Don’t be shy, come out with me…”

The floor heating was on in the room. Xie Shiwei sat directly on the floor and elongated her voice, calling her, mimicking Jiang Xi-yao’s tone from outside the bathroom earlier.

But.

Even though Xie Shiwei was now free from the constant sensation of leaking, thanks to the special fabric her girlfriend gave her, she kept shifting her position on the soft rug on the wooden floor but couldn’t find a comfortable angle.

Because none of it compared to the comfort of leaning against Jiang Xi-yao.

Xie Shiwei suddenly realized that the price of taming Jiang Xi-yao was much greater than she had imagined.

—She could no longer be without this person.

Neither in her life nor for her body.

Xie Shiwei could no longer imagine leaving this beautifully decorated house, warm in winter and cool in summer. She could no longer imagine losing that soft, delicate embrace at night, which was so comfortable whether lying or curled up.

She also didn’t know how she would plug up her constantly leaking body without Jiang Xi-yao.

Because she was addicted to this feeling.

As she was taming the bad dog, the bad dog was also taming her.

“Click.”

The study door opened at that moment.

Xie Shiwei looked up and saw Jiang Xi-yao’s usual beauty.

Even the red mole on the beauty’s lips was not dimmed by the cloud-covered weather outside, which was starting to look stormy. Instead, it was brighter, like a drop of fresh, uncongealed bl00d.

Xie Shiwei suddenly thought, inappropriately, that yesterday afternoon when her girlfriend came home in the red bridal gown, the color of the mole on her lips seemed very dull.

Although it was red, it lacked this… vibrancy?

Xie Shiwei asked out of the blue: “Do you have any siblings?”

Jiang Xi-yao smiled and lifted her up from the floor into her arms.

“No.” The dark-haired beauty said, thinking of the fragment that had sneakily taken over Xie Shiwei while she was killed yesterday. She couldn’t help but grit her teeth.

She was angry that Xie Shiwei hadn’t noticed the difference between the main body and the fragment, but she also knew that these anomalies were what she was trying to hide. So, Jiang Xi-yao could only mix in her resentment and anger as she emphatically repeated:

“Only one!”

Only she, the one with the heart, could be called the main body of the painted skin.

Everything else could only be called a fragment.

Before her heart disappeared, no matter how much those fragments absorbed malice and desperately grew, they would always remain fragments. All fragments had to depend on this heart for existence.

Once Jiang Xi-yao’s heart shattered, all the skin related to her would automatically burn away. This was the true demise of her painted skin being.

However.

No one could touch her real heart.

Jiang Xi-yao slowly rubbed her chin against the top of Xie Shiwei’s head: “Don’t you dare mistake me, Xie Shiwei. If you dare mistake anything else for me, I will punish you severely—”

“The kind where I won’t let you go, no matter how much you cry or beg for mercy.”

Xie Shiwei blushed and said, “Oh.”

【Is she sure that’s not a reward?】

She glanced at her girlfriend’s profile, then abruptly recalled the unexpected sharp pain when she invited the other woman to bite a new area yesterday.

So, Xie Shiwei silently corrected herself internally: 【Give me more rewards, please, and bite me less. It really hurts.】

Then she heard Jiang Xi-yao chuckle, as if the woman could actually hear her timid thoughts.

…

They hailed another premium car service to go out.

The driver, wearing black gloves, held up a large umbrella to meet them at the community gate and then dropped them off all the way under the pavilion in the scenic area when they arrived.

Before Xie Shiwei could even sigh about how good it felt to be rich, she noticed her girlfriend staring through the rain curtain at something.

She alertly pulled the woman closer:

“What are you looking at? You’re not thinking of playing hide-and-seek here, in this heavy rain, are you?”

Xie Shiwei was truly afraid of her running off like she did at the flower warehouse yesterday.

Mainly, Xie Shiwei was deeply aware of her own jinxed luck. She was terrified that a moment’s inattention would bring misfortune upon her girlfriend.

A mental state like Fan Hui’s, dragging a hoe around, was terrifying enough to encounter. Her girlfriend looked delicate and fragile; she might faint faster than Xie Shiwei if she saw a mentally ill person like that!

Xie Shiwei decided to employ a man-marking strategy with her girlfriend from now on.

Jiang Xi-yao laughed softly: “I’m not—”

Then her smile suddenly froze.

Hide-and-seek? Wasn’t that the deliberate phrase she used to scare Xie Shiwei before she lost her memory?

Since Xie Shiwei lost her memory and agreed to date her, she had never used that word again.

…Was this a coincidence? Or a sign of some memory recovery?

Jiang Xi-yao looked at the person in front of her, undecided.

…

In the distance from the pavilion.

The fine curtain of rain couldn’t block the clear, spirit-gazing eyes of a figure on the bridge.

“Sister Chu-chu. What are you doing? Why aren’t you leaving in this heavy rain?” By the bridge, a relative who was a guest at Zhong’s house, and had begged Zhong Chu-yao to take them sightseeing, curiously called out to her.

Zhong Chu-yao remained still.

Even with her eyes closed, she could sense the aura belonging to Xie Shiwei through her eyelids and the surrounding noise.

What’s more, this bothersome rain couldn’t prevent Zhong Chu-yao from carefully tracing the familiar silhouette with her eyes: the person standing in the pavilion was indeed Xie Shiwei.

But what drew her attention more than her best friend was the gold and black, terrifyingly chaotic aura.

—It was that demon.

The red thread between the human and the demon was more tightly entangled than before.

The demon seemed to know she was watching. She had only been standing face-to-face with Xie Shiwei, but suddenly, she reached out and, without a word, pulled the person into her embrace.

The demon’s golden-black aura surged and intertwined with the frail human aura in her arms.

In a moment, the dense black aura completely hid the girl within the demon’s domain.

At the same time.

She looked toward Zhong Chu-yao’s location.

Zhong Chu-yao couldn’t see her face, but she knew that the demon’s ominous gaze had surely locked onto her.

The demon seemed worried that the provocation wasn’t strong enough.

The invisible aura slowly condensed in front of them, slowly morphing in the air into a black bean smiling face emoji with upturned lips.

After a while, the aura changed again, forming five characters, stroke by stroke:

“Xie, Shi, Wei. My. Mine.”
