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

As it was nearing the end of the workday, Tao Tao appeared in front of your desk.

"I've deciphered that string of gibberish." Tao Tao's expression didn't look very good.

"These are... coordinates?"

"Hmm... I also sent you a data package in your email. Please check it; it's related to these coordinates." Tao Tao nodded, her face clearly showing worry. "I tried, but this place can't be seen even with satellite maps... It looks like no ordinary place..."

"That's all I can do to help you," Tao Tao sighed, then continued with her unwavering concern, "And also, if you 'happily' go to that place, you absolutely must be careful! Is it related to... well, I know there are some things I shouldn't ask, but... sigh... whatever, anyway, you wouldn't listen to me if I told you not to go, just remember to be careful..."

Seeing Tao Tao's helpless yet concerned nagging, you tugged at her hand, reassuring her, "Okay, okay, you're making it sound like I'm about to heroically sacrifice myself. It's not as serious as you think..."

Tao Tao quickly covered your mouth, puffing out her cheeks in annoyance: "Don't talk nonsense, okay? Let's go, let's go, it's almost time to get off work!"

"Okay, okay, don't be angry. I was just talking nonsense. I spit out all those words... I promise I'll be careful..." You hugged her and acted coquettishly for a while before finally putting her at ease.

Hehehe, sure enough, both men and women fall for this.

After seeing Tao Tao off, you were just about to open the documents to see what other horrifying content was inside when you caught a glimpse of a familiar sports car appearing in front of the association building.

!!!

This flashy car could only belong to Qin Che!

This kid! He's running around again, not listening to reason!

You grabbed your small bag and rushed downstairs.

Beside the sleek black sports car stood a tall, upright man.

The man held sunglasses on his head, revealing his smooth and handsome forehead. He opened his arms slightly, as if waiting for you to fall into his embrace.

This time, however, you didn't do as he wished. You stopped just in front of him, then reached out and poked his shirt chest hard with your finger: "Running around again, you're so disobedient!"

Qin Che curled one corner of his lips, leaned forward, and pulled you into his arms: "Does picking you up from get off work count as running around? Didn't you say that there are many hunters around your apartment area, making it safe? There are also many hunters from the Hunter Association. According to you, wouldn't that make it twice as safe?"

"You..." You were speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute it.

OK, OK!

You can't argue with him, okay?!

"It's not like it's the first time I've come to pick you up from get off work. Don't look so apprehensive, relax..."

His large hand, which encircled your body, gently patted your back a few times, as if to comfort you, or perhaps to tease you.

You sighed, gently pushed him away, stepped out of his embrace, and sat in the passenger seat.

"How can I relax? I don't even know where you're going, let alone let you take me..." You closed the car door and muttered under your breath, with a hint of complaint.

There was a brief silence in the car. Qin Che didn't respond to you, but simply leaned over and fastened your seatbelt with a click.

Hmph! Guilty conscience! Absolutely guilty conscience!!!
