I Got A Girlfriend After Losing My Memory (Transmigration) - Chapter 39
Tao Ran had always been gentle with Tang Fuzhi. She had never seen this side of Tao Ran before, like an uneasy wild beast desperate to mark its territory, to ensure Tang Fuzhi was still hers, that she still belonged to her.
Savage, unreasonable, ferocious.
These were the words that now defined Tao Ran.
Her lips had long left Tang Fuzhi’s bitten-red lips, moving instead to her slender, pale neck, leaving a trail of faint red marks.
Tang Fuzhi bit her lower lip, utterly helpless. Now that her mouth was free, she tried to soothe Tao Ran with words. “Tao Ran, I… I won’t leave…”
As she spoke, the vibrations of her voice resonated against the lips pressed against her neck.
Yes.
Tao Ran could feel the tremors of each word Tang Fuzhi uttered. This absolute control over Tang Fuzhi’s very being sent a shiver through Tao Ran’s body.
Tang Fuzhi felt utterly powerless. She had never realized the vast disparity in strength between herself and Tao Ran. She desperately tried to ignore the burning lips, attempting to explain, “I just wanted to know about you and Huo Yuan, ah—”
The name clearly enraged Tao Ran. She bared her sharp teeth and bit down on the delicate skin over the artery.
Tang Fuzhi felt a sharp pain in her neck, forcing her words to trail off. Tears welled up in her eyes, glistening with physiological distress.
“Tao Ran…”
The young woman’s pitiful gaze seemed to accuse her of something.
In the past, whenever she made that face, Tao Ran would give her anything she wanted.
But this time was different. Tao Ran was completely overwhelmed by anxiety and panic. Tang Fuzhi’s show of vulnerability didn’t evoke sympathy; it only fueled her cruelty.
Huo Yuan, Huo Yuan, Huo Yuan!
The mere mention of his name brought back the image Tao Ran had seen when she pushed open the door.
The man sat in a chair, handsome and privileged. The young woman standing before him smiled, her eyes curving into crescents, radiant with joy. Sunlight streamed through the massive glass windows, casting them as a perfect, destined pair.
Why does she always have to go to Huo Yuan?!
I was the first person Tang Fuzhi met!
I’m the one who’s been with her for four years!
Why?! Why does she still go to Huo Yuan even after losing her memory?!
Tang Fuzhi’s words reignited Tao Ran’s fury. She lowered her head and kissed her, the angry kiss growing increasingly violent, twisting her tongue until it went numb.
She was the one who provoked me first!
If she didn’t like me, why did she provoke me?
And after provoking me, why did she push me away to someone else?
Now that she’s provoked me, she won’t get away unscathed!
Tang Fuzhi was forced to tilt her head back as Tao Ran’s fingertips traced the nape of her neck. If this were an ABO world, Tang Fuzhi would have completely lost her ability to resist, melting into a puddle of soft water beneath Tao Ran’s touch.
Though this world lacked ABO dynamics, the nape of Tang Fuzhi’s neck remained a sensitive spot. A tingling numbness spread through her body. If Tao Ran hadn’t been supporting her with her other hand on her waist, she might have collapsed to the floor.
Tao Ran’s kiss was filled with fury and resentment.
When Tang Fuzhi was completely defenseless, Tao Ran swept her up into her arms and carried her to the bedroom.
It was still afternoon, though the sunlight outside wasn’t as bright as at noon, it was far from sunset. Thick curtains completely blocked out the sun, plunging the bedroom into a twilight gloom, as if night had already fallen.
The only light came from a motion-sensing lamp on the bedside table, its soft glow adding an inexplicable warmth to the room’s atmosphere.
Tang Fuzhi was tossed onto the bed.
The hotel bed was soft enough to cushion the impact of Tao Ran’s rough handling, but Tang Fuzhi still looked flustered.
She took two steps back, the scene before her making it impossible not to think of something unspeakable.
“Tao Ran, what are you doing?”
Tao Ran knelt on one knee on the soft bed, gazing at Tang Fuzhi. Strands of hair clung messily to her cheeks, her clear eyes wide with confusion, and her rosy lips glistened, still flushed from their recent passion.
On Tang Fuzhi’s slender, swan-like neck, tiny red marks bloomed like plum blossoms against her milk-white skin. Her long, dark hair cascaded across the white sheets, a stark contrast of black and white. The girl before her seemed like an angel fallen to earth.
Tao Ran wanted to leave her mark on this angel. She wanted to possess her, to drag her down to the mortal realm and spend her fleeting life by her side.
Tao Ran lowered her gaze, her shadow enveloping the girl’s body.
The angel had been stained by shadow.
Her shadow.
This realization filled Tao Ran with overwhelming joy.
Her red lips parted slightly, her voice cold but her breath burning hot. “Prove it to me.”
Tang Fuzhi looked up at her, confused. “What?”
She couldn’t quite follow Tao Ran’s train of thought.
Tao Ran reached out and stroked her cheek. The girl’s flushed skin was warm to the touch, her breathing still ragged.
All of this, everything, was because of her.
An indescribable excitement surged through Tao Ran’s heart. “Prove to me you won’t leave me,” she urged.
Let me leave my mark on your body. Let me completely possess you. Let me have you. Let me believe you won’t leave me.
Under Tang Fuzhi’s puzzled gaze, Tao Ran removed her suit jacket and began unbuttoning her shirt. Tang Fuzhi’s eyes were immediately drawn to her.
Tao Ran’s body was beautiful, a fact Tang Fuzhi had long known.
Tang Fuzhi was somewhat reserved, while Tao Ran possessed a certain assertiveness. As a result, Tao Ran usually took the initiative in teasing her.
But Tao Ran was never one to simply take. She also loved watching Tang Fuzhi’s desire for her, loved seeing Tang Fuzhi’s eyes darken with longing, loved seeing Tang Fuzhi’s face flush with arousal.
Tao Ran had always known that Tang Fuzhi was drawn to her physical appearance, both her face and her body.
That’s why she would deliberately wear low-cut camisole nightgowns in front of Tang Fuzhi to showcase her figure, and why she would choose youthful, vibrant miniskirts on her days off, revealing her long, slender legs.
Yesterday, because Tao Ran was drunk, Tang Fuzhi had glimpsed her body, but at the time, Tao Ran’s poor condition had left her with no energy to appreciate it.
Now, however, was the first time she was seeing Tao Ran’s body so clearly and directly.
The woman’s fingertips brushed against the white shirt, not yielding an inch. As each button came undone, the deep cleavage became visible. The shirt was casually tossed aside, revealing Tao Ran’s flawless upper body to Tang Fuzhi’s gaze.
This Tao Ran, without her drunken stupor or lingering alcohol scent, was far more beautiful than she had been the day before.
Tang Fuzhi stared, mesmerized.
Just as Tao Ran had suspected, Tang Fuzhi truly craved her face… and her body.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have obediently allowed Tao Ran to kiss her forehead during their first meeting.
Tao Ran’s fingertips tilted Tang Fuzhi’s chin upward, and she leaned in to kiss her, her lips meeting Tang Fuzhi’s in a kiss that lingered.
Her eyes lowered, she gazed into the young girl’s eyes: pure, innocent, and transparent. In stark contrast, she saw herself: mad, violent, and utterly out of control.
And here she was, committing such sinful acts within those pristine eyes.
With a rip, the girl’s dress tore open.
A drop of water glistened on Tang Fuzhi’s lips. She curled her toes, her entire body tense with a mixture of fear and anticipation. She was afraid of the unknown, yet she also knew Tao Ran would never truly harm her.
Tang Fuzhi felt a little wicked. At first, when Tao Ran had kissed her fiercely without explanation, she had been frightened by the unfamiliar intensity.
But now she understood the reason behind Tao Ran’s actions. She had seen the panic, jealousy, and insecurity in Tao Ran’s eyes.
All these emotions stemmed from her. The formidable Tao Ran, usually so composed, had lost control because of her. Even in anger, she hadn’t hurt her excessively, choosing instead to lower her proud head and attempt to appease her with kisses.
Tang Fuzhi had witnessed Tao Ran’s crimson lips deliver icy commands to her subordinates, but she had never imagined they could be used in such a way.
Tao Ran was even more afraid of losing her than she was of losing Tao Ran.
Now that Tang Fuzhi understood everything, Tao Ran had transformed from a fierce tiger into a pitiful kitten. She was trying to reassure herself that Tang Fuzhi still belonged to her, to prove she wouldn’t leave, and to seek security in her presence.
This realization, combined with Tao Ran’s current actions, filled Tang Fuzhi with immense satisfaction and a secret thrill.
She was now eagerly anticipating what Tao Ran would do next.
But Tao Ran merely licked her lips once, without deepening the kiss, and immediately sensed the girl’s compliance.
She froze, stopping her movements and looking up at Tang Fuzhi’s flushed face. The girl’s clear eyes, as she had hoped, were now stained with desire.
“Why aren’t you resisting me?”
She had only bound Tang Fuzhi’s hands, not her feet.
If Tang Fuzhi truly wanted to, she could easily kick Tao Ran in the face and shove her away.
In fact, Tao Ran had braced herself for a kick.
But it never came.
Not only was she spared the kick, but she saw no fear in Tang Fuzhi’s eyes.
From her vantage point, Tao Ran could clearly see the girl’s entire state. Her fair skin was flushed crimson with excitement and embarrassment, and her legs, instead of resisting, had wrapped around Tao Ran’s neck.
Tang Fuzhi breathed deeply, Tao Ran’s sudden pause making her restless. She lowered her gaze to Tao Ran, even catching the faint glint of moisture on her lips.
“I’m proving something to you,” Tang Fuzhi murmured.
Proving that I won’t leave you.
