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

"I'm asking you, has your period ended yet?" You secretly raised your face, meeting his mischievous gaze.

"Which one is that?"

"Oh, that's the one!"

"Which one?" Long chuckled softly.

"You did that on purpose, didn't you!" You punched him hard in the chest, making a move to grab his private parts. "I'm talking about this!"

The dragon flipped over, dodging your "attack," and pinned you beneath it, its large hand pressing down on your wrist.

"What? Addicted? Want more?" The teasing tone made you blush instantly.

"Let me go, I know, it's over, that's all. You were just beating around the bush to say a few flirtatious things, now you've said it all, are you satisfied? Let go..."

"What if I said no?"

"Ok?"

"I won't let go..." His eyes were fixed on you, the eyes of a predator.

"Fine, I won't let you go either!"

You suddenly looked up and kissed those still-smiling lips with precision.

Their hot breaths mingled together.

The dragon's large paw moved to your waist, carrying you from the stone bed to a pile of gold coins.

"You really hit hard. Doesn't it hurt when you bump your head?"

"It hurts... but I'm willing to endure it."

Long chuckled twice, then was momentarily speechless.

You pressed your lips to his again.

I wish time could stand still at this moment, so I could stop thinking about anything else and stay together like this for as long as possible...

Unfortunately, time does not stop, and it will eventually turn this moment of happiness into sand.

In the city of Tar, revelry reigns every night; shallow desires are always easier to confront than genuine feelings.

With the resurgence of the demons, the shadow of "doomsday" quickly spread across the war-torn lands of Philos.

Amidst this chaos, the dragon continues to lead you on plundering sprees.

The burning pain from the brand on my neck, growing more intense with each passing day, often keeps me so anxious that I can't sleep all night.

You have a strong feeling that the story is nearing its end.

..........

That day, the dragon found you hiding in the treasure room, deep in thought.

"You stay up all night, your sleep schedule is really starting to resemble mine." The dragon, stepping on gold coins, slowly strolled to your side.

"Not sleepy?" He reached out to pinch your cheek.

Because of your anxiety about the past, you subconsciously avoided his touch.

The dragon frowned, crouched down, and moved closer to your face: "Why are you hiding?"

The handsome face so close to yours makes you suddenly realize what you were doing.

Suddenly, an overwhelming feeling of soreness and tightness assaults your heart.

You suddenly threw yourself into the dragon's arms and hugged his neck tightly.

"Sorry, I was just thinking about something and my mind wandered."

"Her dark circles are so bad..."

"I can't sleep because I miss you, let me hold you for a while." You rest your head on his shoulder, your cheek against his.

In this comforting embrace, it seems you've finally buried some of the knot in your heart.

"It's nothing. I just came to check if we've accumulated more gold coins, and if the extra ones are enough for me to build a pure gold bathtub."

The dragon gently patted your back and chuckled softly, "You can't even lie properly. I let you come back early not so you could spend the whole night counting gold coins in the treasure cave."

"These are all my property. Can't I count them?"
