Sweet daily life of Little Tanuki and Qin Che in Love and Deep Space

"Um, Qin Che... I give up... You... stop for a second..." You regained some of your senses in your dazed state.

You put your arm around his shoulder to support your somewhat limp body.

As he released you, you leaned on his shoulder, panting heavily, and muttered under your breath, "Seriously, he can't stand to suffer even the slightest loss..."

"Hmm? I think you're actually enjoying it quite a bit, shall we continue?" Qin Che's words interrupted his rambling.

"Ceasefire, ceasefire! We came here to soak in the hot springs, what good will it do you to knock me out with your kisses!" You poked his chest twice with your finger.

Qin Che grasped her finger, pulled it to his lips, and gently kissed it: "Then behave yourself..."

"I'm perfectly well-behaved, okay? Come on, let's put on a face mask, shall we?" You decide that ending the previous topic quickly is the most important thing right now.

"Face mask? I guess I don't need it..." Qin Che placed you back on the edge of the pool.

You found another place to sit down, still clutching the cleansing mud mask you had noticed earlier.

"I've seen this online. It's a popular item, very famous. Come on, let's try it together."

As you speak, you've already started digging.

The mud mask has a dark green, creamy texture and a slightly cooling sensation when applied to the face.

After scooping out a small piece with the wooden spoon that came with the box, you smeared a little on the left and a piece on the right, and then applied it to your face.

"I made a mistake. I should have looked in the mirror inside and applied the ointment first."

"Let me help you." Qin Che took the wooden spoon from your hand, looked at you now covered in graffiti, and smiled with a pleased expression.

"Hmm, apply it carefully, make sure it covers your entire face, and leave some space around your eyes." You suddenly remembered the awkward way Qin Che applied sunscreen to you before.

Your face was completely white, even your eyelashes were covered up, so you quickly made your request even clearer.

"Dig a little less, spread it evenly, and then dig more."

"I understand..." Qin Che lowered his head and carefully applied the ointment for you.

You can see your own clear reflection in his ruby-like eyes.

"Alright, the little clay figure is finished." Qin Che admired his work with satisfaction.

"Qin Che, let me apply it for you too. This mud mask has a soothing effect, and it's especially good when combined with this hot spring. Come on! Come on!!!" you said to him coquettishly.

"No, I have no interest in being a clay figure!" Qin Che shook his head and refused.

But who are you? Can you give up so easily?

Your eyes started bulging and you began planning how you were going to smear mud on his face today.

While you were still scheming, Qin Che had already seen through all your little tricks.

"Judging from your eyes, what else do you want to do to me?" Qin Che didn't even intend to let you do it, and asked directly.

"Hehehe, of course I wanted to ambush you." You rubbed your fingers, which were covered in mud, trying to fool people with a silly laugh.

"What are your plans? Tell me about them."

Qin Che leaned back, showing some interest in your answer.

"Yeah, I'll pretend I have a leg cramp so you can help me up, and then I'll take the opportunity to smear my face with your paws," you said, tapping your chin.

"Such a simple trick, are you sure I'll fall for it?" Qin Che raised an eyebrow, awaiting his answer.
