The Contract CEO's Arrogant Pet

7-8

7. The Noble's Gloomy Abode

Yulia "dominantly" chose a basement in an old city residential building as their residence—"No windows, no noise, perfect!"

Lu Chen's private team had already arrived to clean up and set up: the shattered glass was replaced with steel plates (Yulia believed this was the result of her power's deterrence), and the basement was neatly arranged, though Lu Chen intentionally placed a flickering oil lamp in a corner to suit Yulia's "noble preference."

"Servant, is this your 'domicile'? It is truly too modest," Yulia said with a tone of condescension, yet she was extremely satisfied with the windowless environment.

Lu Chen humbly replied, "Yes, Mistress. It is warm in winter and cool in summer, perfect for hiding from danger."

8. The Vampire's 'Parenting' Manual

After cohabitation began, Yulia's "reverse-dominance" and "Vampire-style parenting" became Lu Chen's greatest challenge.

Challenge 1: Forced Blood Transfusion

Yulia believed humans required regular supplements of high-purity blood. Every day, she would acquire the freshest blood bags from her secret channels (likely unwittingly breaking into a blood research institute) and demand Lu Chen drink them.

"This will prolong your fragile lifespan by at least a century!" Yulia commanded.

Lu Chen could only sneakily pour the blood bags down the kitchen drain, then pretend to have a "rosy, healthy complexion."

Challenge 2: The Daytime Wardrobe

Yulia was convinced sunlight was "a deadly poison for weak humans." Every morning, she would use ancient white wax to seal all door cracks, then force Lu Chen to hide in the wardrobe.

"Remaining in the wardrobe for 12 hours is the most esteemed protection we can offer you!"

Lu Chen, as a busy CEO, had to remotely manage multi-billion dollar business decisions inside the wardrobe using his encrypted phone, all while enduring Yulia's "daily patrols."

Challenge 3: The Nightly Vigil

Yulia believed "sleep equals death." Every night, she would light an ancient alchemical candle by Lu Chen's bed—the heavy smoke from this candle had demon-repelling effects, but to a modern human, it was practically a gas attack.

Lu Chen suffered insomnia from the smoke but had to feign the sweet sleep of "one under angelic protection."
