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

"..."

Looking at the silent Qin Che, you knew your attempt to change the subject had failed, so you could only honestly reply, "Oh, it's nothing really, it's just that every woman has her period, and her stomach hurts..." You guiltily wrapped your arms around Qin Che's neck, stealing glances at his expression.

Upon hearing this, his face darkened even more, indicating that he had already connected your miserable state today with what happened over the weekend.

"It's my fault. I didn't know these past few days were your special period. I didn't plan things properly; you touched cold water, and then..."

You quickly interrupted him: "No, no, it's not your fault. It's my fault. I was careless and didn't remember the date. How could a grown man like you think of that?"

"Let's go back to the villa." He picked you up and walked towards the parking lot.

"Huh? Aren't you going back to the dark spot?" You looked at him in confusion.

“Sector N109 rarely sees sunlight, and without heating, it’s bound to be a bit chilly. You should stay in the villa for the next few days.”

"My baby Che is so thoughtful." You nestled on his shoulder and rubbed your hair against his neck. Being held by Qin Che like this made the pain in your stomach seem a little better.

Fortunately, Qin Che had the foresight to pick you up in a car this time. After you were helped into the car, you didn't forget to quickly order some menstrual essentials on your phone.

The car drove smoothly all the way. You frowned and leaned your head against the seat, with both hands covering your lower abdomen.

"This is an old problem, I'm actually used to it, it just didn't hurt as badly as it did this time, so don't worry too much..."

"Hmm..." Qin Che occasionally turned his head to look at you, and seeing your weak appearance, he felt a pang of heartache.

The car stopped under the veranda of the villa. When you felt that there was no more noise around you, you opened your eyes.

"We've arrived..." Just as you were about to pull the handle, the car door was opened.

"Don't move, I'll carry you." Qin Che bent down, put one hand under your knees and the other under your armpits, and lifted you out of the car.

Quickly hook your arm around his neck to lighten his load.

"Qin Che...we're here. It's just a short distance; I can walk by myself..."

"Hmm? You've been carrying me the whole way, and now you want to get down and walk by yourself?" Qin Che's steady, powerful voice came from above. "Why don't you hold me a little tighter..."

Since he said that, you, who were already in so much pain all over your body, had no reason to persist.

Qin Che used evol to open the villa's door.

The three cats, who were sunbathing in the yard, were attracted by the noise of the car and are now crouching furtively in the flower bushes, spying on the situation towards the gate.

"If your colleague hadn't messaged me, were you still planning to keep it from me...?"

Feeling a little guilty, you didn't dare look at Qin Che and weakly replied, "I didn't mean to hide it from you... It's just that getting your period is perfectly normal, there's no need to specifically tell you..."

"Hmm...that's perfectly normal..." Qin Che snorted unkindly, "You can't even stand up straight with your back against the wall, yet you still want to fight the Wanderer Body."

You were momentarily speechless, then tried to argue further: "This wasn't this morning, and my stomach wasn't hurting this badly..."
