“What did I get wrong? You’ve got at least three things to apologize for.”
Chen Yan stared sternly at Su Yue, who was lying across his lap.
“Wah, I shouldn’t have given you that virility potion recipe.”
“Not that one.”
“The big sister next door is actually my type.”
“Not that one either.”
Chen Yan raised his hand threateningly again.
“Wait, wait! I shouldn’t have said you were impotent. I’m sorry!”
Su Yue cried out when she sensed murderous intent aimed at her backside.
Smack!
“Guh… why?”
“Sorry. My hand moved on its own.”
Chen Yan apologized guiltily to Su Yue, then pulled down her panties.
“Y-you—you’re going to do what? I already admitted my mistake…”
Su Yue felt her butt completely exposed to the air. Her panties had been dragged down to her knees, and she began struggling in panic.
“Stop moving. I’m going to put some medicine on it.”
One of Chen Yan’s large hands kept Su Yue restrained. With the other, he felt around inside the coffee table before pulling out a small green bottle.
He unscrewed the cap with one hand, scooped out some green ointment, and rubbed it over Su Yue’s reddened, slightly swollen backside.
“Hiss… that hurts.”
Su Yue looked like she was about to cry. The mysterious ointment carried a cool sensation, making her already-exposed butt feel even more chilly.
“Bear with it. I didn’t even use much force. How can it hurt that badly?”
Chen Yan held down the restless Su Yue and spoke helplessly.
“You call that not using much force?! It feels like my butt isn’t even mine anymore. Waaah…”
Su Yue was totally going to cry. Really, she was!
“Are you really that delicate?”
Chen Yan applied another dab of ointment and rubbed it in firmly.
“Gently! Gently!”
Su Yue lay across Chen Yan’s lap with her head turned away from him. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks.
The cool ointment really did work. The soreness and swelling in Su Yue’s backside quickly faded.
Chen Yan’s touch wasn’t heavy. What made her uneasy was the humiliation of being held down and spanked like a child, along with Chen Yan’s unabashed stare.
“All done.”
Chen Yan pulled her panties back up. Then he slipped both hands under her arms, lifted her, and turned her around.
In an instant, Su Yue went from lying across his lap to sitting in his arms.
She only felt her body turn before she landed in a warm embrace. Her back rested against Chen Yan’s broad, solid chest, while the man’s strong heartbeat teased her ears.
Su Yue froze. She failed to react as she normally would.
“Why are you being so obedient today?”
Chen Yan patted Su Yue’s head. He’d expected the Little Vampire to put up a fierce struggle the moment he picked her up.
“Huh?”
Su Yue tilted her head in confusion. Then she finally realized what was happening.
Her petite body began squirming restlessly.
“Let go of me!”
“Why does your reaction have lag?”
Chen Yan sighed as he tightened his hold, keeping the Little Vampire from escaping.
He leaned toward Su Yue’s ear and gently blew a breath against it.
“Lucifer’s coming over to play today. Remember what we agreed on?”
The man’s warm breath made Su Yue’s earlobe tingle. Her pretty face flushed slightly as she remembered the agreement she and Chen Yan had made with the Enforcement Squad.
She nodded shyly.
“Then, so we don’t blow our cover later, let’s practice first.”
“What do you mean?”
Su Yue already knew what Chen Yan wanted her to say. Even so, she was too embarrassed to say it herself.
“Call me Master. If you don’t, I’ll keep holding you and never let go.”
Chen Yan shamelessly tightened his arms around her. The girl’s soft body was like an oversized milk-scented cuddle pillow.
The Little Vampire tried pushing against Chen Yan’s sturdy arm. It didn’t budge, as if it had been cast from steel.
Su Yue realized that if she didn’t go along with him today, she really would spend the entire day as his cuddle pillow.
“M-Master…”
Su Yue murmured the word in a tiny, flushed voice.
“What did Little Su Yue say? I couldn’t hear you.”
“Master.” Su Yue raised her voice a little.
“Did you not eat enough breakfast?”
Chen Yan poked her cheek with one finger.
“Aah! Master, Master, Master, Master!”
“Grrr!”
The Little Vampire gave up completely and decided to make a clean break. She shouted the humiliating title several times in a row, then bit down on the finger poking her cheek.
Her flushed face and huge, resentful eyes made her look utterly aggrieved as she glared sideways at Chen Yan.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chen Yan moved his finger inside Su Yue’s mouth and stroked her sensitive canine.
“Mmph—ptui!”
Su Yue spat out the offending finger. When Chen Yan loosened his hold for a moment, she slipped free, scrambled off his lap, and ran to the other side of the sofa.
Once she was at a safe distance, Su Yue watched Chen Yan warily.
Chen Yan remained perfectly calm. He pulled a napkin from the table and wiped his index finger, which Su Yue had just bitten.
“Not bad. Very spirited. Don’t forget to use that title tonight, either.”
“Tonight?”
“That’s right. I have to visit the Hunter Guild and won’t be back until tonight. You and Lucifer need to get along.”
Chen Yan stood and walked toward the bedroom.
“But you just said you’d hold me all day if I didn’t say it!”
Su Yue stared at him with a resentful little look.
“I was only teasing cute little Su Yue.” His eyes held a smile. “Besides, I never said I’d hold you all day. Could it be that Miss Su Yue wanted me to?”
“Ugh…”
Although “I’ll keep holding you and never let go” clearly meant longer than “all day,” still…
“I lost. I lost completely.”
Su Yue’s platinum-tier mindset could only manage bronze-tier plays in front of Chen Yan.
…
“There are ingredients in the fridge. You can cook, right?”
“Mm-hm. I can make egg fried rice.” Su Yue nodded.
“Forget it. You two should just order takeout tonight.”
Chen Yan sighed and took out his phone. After a few taps, a mechanical AI voice announced:
“Payment received: 100 yuan.”
“I’m leaving. If you don’t know how to order takeout, ask Lucifer to teach you. Don’t turn on the kitchen stove. Don’t touch the desk in my bedroom. You can explore everywhere else.”
“Mhm, mhm.”
“I’m really leaving now?”
“Have a safe trip~”
Under Chen Yan’s suspicious gaze, Su Yue obediently closed the door behind him.
Silence returned to the apartment.
“Phew~ Next up is adventure time!”
The Little Vampire cheered.
To find Chen Yan’s weakness, recover the dignity Su Yue had lost, and make her awful plays match her high-level awareness—she had to explore this secret realm!
Her own room went without saying. The bathroom and kitchen weren’t worth examining, either.
The only place with any value was Chen Yan’s bedroom. Su Yue had entered it once before, but she hadn’t searched it carefully.
“Chen Yan, I’m coming in.”
Su Yue pushed open the door and switched on the light.
It looked exactly as it had the last time she saw it: an enormous desk with a built-in bookcase, and a bed.
Su Yue had a clear target. She immediately crawled beneath the bed.
A man’s secrets were usually hidden there!
Sure enough, just as the wise Little Vampire had predicted, a huge pitch-black chest was hidden beneath the bed!
