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

Inside the bar.

The dozen or so members of your Hunter Association sat around a booth. After you, Tao Tao, and Liu Yi ordered drinks, they started chatting away.

After a few drinks, Liu Yi and Tao Tao, who had been normal at first, started to become bolder.

"How are things going between you and your partner lately?" Liu Yi leaned in, grabbed your hand and arm, and asked with a sly smile.

“They’re so affectionate. I even saw her family dropping her off at work this morning,” Tao Tao immediately chimed in.

"Wow, you spotted our car even though it was parked so far away!" You exclaimed in surprise, your mouth agape.

“That car is so conspicuous, you two are the most eye-catching focus on this road no matter how far away you are.” Tao Tao took another sip of the wine in her glass and continued, “Every time I’m about to enter the building, I see people tilting their heads, and I know you’re here.”

"Is it really that exaggerated...?" You were speechless.

"It's not an exaggeration at all. Next time you get off the bus, just observe for yourself, and you'll know I'm absolutely not lying to you," Tao Tao said righteously.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I'm so envious as a single dog. Handsome, rich, and seems to dote on you so much..." Liu Yi suddenly recalled bumping into you two in the polar region, and added, "And clingy... tsk tsk tsk..."

"What are you envious of? You also have rich and handsome guys pursuing you. Don't think I don't know. You didn't want them, and now you're here saying you envy others..." Tao Tao immediately exposed Liu Yi's embarrassment.

"What?! Who's pursuing you? I had no idea!" You immediately sensed the gossip.

"That's the one! They even sent flowers to our association, and you didn't even know... Waaah..." Tao Tao hadn't finished speaking when Liu Yi immediately covered her mouth.

"Don't talk nonsense, there's nothing between him and me..." Liu Yi's face turned red with anxiety.

You grinned slyly: "You're so excited, there must be something special!! When are you going to bring it to us?!"

"Don't listen to Tao Tao's nonsense, it's not even close to happening yet," Liu Yi tried her best to argue.

Unmoved, you pulled Tao Tao aside and started gossiping in front of him: "Come on, Tao Tao, tell me the details..."

"Oh dear, you're just too immersed in your sweet romance to have time to gossip with us."

"I have some free time today, so let's get to the details!"

"You guys!!! Don't blame me for this!!!" Liu Yi suddenly flared up. "Tao Tao, let me tell you, do you know what I saw when I went to the Arctic to get my coat that day?!"

You realize something's wrong and quickly try to cover Liu Yi's mouth, but Liu Yi is prepared. She's already separated from you by Tao Tao, so it's easy for her not to have her mouth covered.

"What?!" Tao Tao became even more excited when she discovered there was gossip she didn't know.

"During that polar exchange trip, I found her and her husband, Mr. Qin, hiding in the closet in her room..."

She's already said it, so there's no point in trying to cover her mouth anymore. You rubbed your face, deciding to just give up.

"Wardrobe! Are you guys being this exciting?!" Tao Tao covered her mouth, looking at you in surprise.

"No, you're overthinking it. He just came back with me to find the charger. As for the wardrobe, I really did have a moment of madness and hid inside."
