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

"What the hell?!" Enraged that her thoughts had been exposed, she ignored her aches and pains and grabbed a pillow from the bedside table, throwing it at him.

"Such a soft, fluffy attack, I'll take it as an invitation..." Qin Che easily caught the pillow you threw at him. "Very good, if we do it again now, it'll save me a shower time..."

! ! ! ! !

You know you can't go toe-to-toe with Qin Che. Seeing this situation, continuing the stalemate will only result in being completely devoured again. Although... but... it's still best to... hold off for now...

So your mind races, and you immediately start playing the victim.

"Qin Che~~~ Can we take a break for a while~~~~~~ My mouth hurts so much, and my back hurts so much too~~~~~ If this continues, I might really not be able to get up. Can you really bear to see me suffer like this~~~~~"

You slumped back into his arms, blinked your watery eyes twice, and looked at him with a "sincere" expression.

Qin Che raised his hand, touched the back of your furry head, and shook his head almost imperceptibly while watching your exaggerated performance.

"Okay, didn't you say you had nothing to do because of the rain? Actually, there are many activities you can experience at this hotel. For example, if your back hurts, you can book a massage. Would you like to try it?"

"Um..." You hesitated, stammering, wanting to say something but stopping yourself.

"What's wrong?" Qin Che asked, looking puzzled.

You stammered, finally letting out a soft sigh before replying, "It's just that... a massage always involves taking off clothes, and look at all these marks on my body, I still want to save face..."

Qin Che was taken aback, his gaze falling on the red marks scattered on your skin.

"..." He was speechless. "It was indeed my oversight. Let's try something else then. Karaoke bars, cinemas, arcades—they should have those too—or online auction live streams... What do you want to do?"

"Hmm... I want to try them all, but I haven't recovered my strength yet, let me rest a bit more..." You had just finished speaking when you suddenly remembered something and jumped up from him, "Ah! Qin Che! Is the pot of tea you just brewed okay! Did it boil dry and explode?"

Qin Che flicked your forehead, which made you jump in surprise. "Don't worry, the teapot has been on the table for a while now, and the fire has gone out. If you want tea, you'll have to relight it..."

"Oh, that's good. Our Che baby is so thoughtful. If I only remembered this now, I'd probably be exploding by now..." You pat your chest, not forgetting to praise your little Che.

"Go take a shower first, and then have a pot of tea. You should be almost fully recovered by then. Are you hungry? I'll have someone bring some snacks..." Qin Che said as he picked you up and carried you towards the bathroom.

You wrapped your arms around Qin Che's neck, resting your head on his shoulder, and said slowly, "You shouldn't have mentioned it. The moment you brought it up, my stomach started protesting being ignored by its owner..."

Fairies fighting is definitely too taxing.

"I've been living too carefree lately, and I feel like I've gained weight around my stomach..."
