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

Does it look familiar?

He looked down at the round orange in your hand, his Adam's apple bobbing: "Hmm... It looks a lot like the trap you dug for me."

As if recalling something amusing, a smile reached your eyes but you pretended to be angry: "What trap? That was an orange lamp I made especially for you." You raised your chin and continued, "Besides, didn't you see through my trap a long time ago and not foolishly eat it thinking it was an orange? That only proves that it was a failed trap!"

Thinking of the lonely lantern at the entrance of the dark spot, your eyes suddenly lit up. You leaned in front of Qin Che and suggested, "There's only one lantern at the entrance. Why don't we make an orange lantern to accompany it? We hope for good fortune and happiness in the new year... and that we'll be a perfect pair."

Qin Che reached out and ruffled your hair: "Okay, this time we shouldn't need a tutorial, right?"

You winked at him mischievously, picking out the roundest orange from the pile of fruit: "Of course, this is my specialty. I just don't know if I can trick you into my sweet trap this time, hehe..."

You were clearly implying something, and your hands didn't stop moving even as you spoke.

With deft fingertips, you made a small hole at the top of the orange, and then carefully scooped out the segments of fruit from that hole.

"It's finished! Look, it's absolutely perfect!"

You held the peeled orange in your hands, raised it in front of Qin Che, and showed off your achievement.

"Your turn." You picked out a new orange for him and put it in his hand.

You prop your chin up with one hand and toss a piece of fruit into your mouth with the other, the sweet and sour juice bursting in your mouth.

You watched Qin Che's movements with some anticipation, seeing his slender fingers pinch the orange, his fingertips applying slight pressure, as if he were even more careful than when he disassembled and reassembled those expensive and rare antique guns.

You expected to see him handle things with ease, but when another orange peel cracked open between his fingers, you laughed so hard you almost couldn't stand up straight.

Qin Che lowered his eyes and stared at the broken orange peel in his palm, a rare look of embarrassment on his face.

"Pfft~ Hahahaha~~ Qin Che~~~ So there are things you're not good at, huh? This is the third orange that died prematurely, isn't it..." You laughed so hard your stomach hurt, leaning on the edge of the table.

Ahhhhhh! He's so cute!!!

Qin Che is so adorable, I just want to hug him and give him a good kiss!

Qin Che's ears instantly flushed crimson, his eyes narrowed dangerously, and his slender fingers suddenly gripped your waist.

You gasped, pulled into his arms, your nose almost touching his chin. His low, husky voice carried a hint of threat: "Those who know this weakness should be extra careful. If they accidentally tell anyone, they'll..."

Ahhhhh! This Qin Che, who makes your heart tremble and makes you want to kneel down and call him "Daddy," is so satisfying!

You shouldn't like it too much!!!

You tilt your head back to meet those beautiful red eyes, the corners of your eyes still seeming to hold the physiological tears from laughing earlier. You deliberately drawl out your voice: "Hmm? What do you want?"

“Sit here and peel a bunch of oranges,” he said seriously, his warm breath falling on your forehead.

You picked up a broken orange peel from his hand, broke free from his embrace, and said smugly, "You've already peeled several. Don't you think I should just confirm the crime?"
