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

You chuckled and playfully punched him: "Keep it down, keep it down, our current mission is to go home."

"Ahem... Little Qin~~" You cleared your throat and said in a serious tone, "Navigate home~"

"Which home are we going back to?" a fully automated car navigation system, which was manually adjusting the map, asked.

Oh dear, having too many properties can be a real problem.

"Okay, let's go back to my little apartment then. I'll take you to see the results of my recent hard work." You waved your arm, deciding on the route home.

As you walk past the street corner, colorful posters in a shop window suddenly catch your eye, their gilded lettering dazzling in the sunlight.

"Wait, wait, stop the car!" You patted Qin Che on the shoulder and pointed to the skincare store. "It's right here, stop now!"

Qin Che stopped in his tracks and turned his head: "What's wrong?"

“I see what I need. Come on, back up~~ back up some more~~” You twisted your body on his back, poking his shoulder blade with your fingertip and pointing back, “It’s that shop window over there, right!”

Qin Che turned around helplessly and walked steadily back to the gleaming glass window with you on his back.

You quickly adjusted your position and leaned on his shoulder, pointing to the promotional tag on the poster: "Look, look! This face mask is on sale today, buy one get one free! I'd feel guilty not taking advantage of this deal~ We should spend money when we should save money when we should, right~~"

Qin Che glanced in the direction you pointed, a soft chuckle escaping his throat: "Then... let's go in and take a look?"

"If possible~~" You twirled a stray strand of hair behind his neck with your finger, your voice tinged with laughter.

The shop window reflected warm light, clearly showing Qin Che's slightly raised eyebrows, his eyes revealing a hint of indulgence beneath the helplessness.

He nuzzled your arm around his neck with his chin: "Then fasten your seatbelt. We're not responsible if you fall."

You immediately tightened your arms and pressed your cheeks even closer: "Yes, ma'am."

The sales assistant at the entrance showed no surprise at seeing the two customers carrying large and small bags.

Her professional skills enabled her to automatically filter out "dog food" (a slang term for public displays of affection).

A sweet voice asked in a formulaic tone, "Welcome! What would you two like to order?"

Meanwhile, another saleswoman quickly pulled over a high chair: "Please sit here."

Qin Che neatly placed you on the chair.

Then, quite naturally, he turned his head and asked, "Which ones do you want?"

"I want this, that, and that one over there too, thank you~~~"

After all, who can resist the temptation of a discount?

No choice made!

I bought everything on sale!

Qin Che picked up the face mask and skincare products you pointed to, ignored you, and followed the sales assistant to the checkout.

After you've paid, the sales assistant will greet you with a smile and say, "Take care, and welcome back next time!"

On the way to the parking lot, you were carrying a full shopping bag, and Qin Che was carrying you and the shopping bags on his back.

In a good mood, you couldn't help but hum a cheerful tune.

Qin Che teased, "So happy?"

"Yeah, who wouldn't be happy to shop? Plus, my husband carries me around and pays with his card. How wonderful!" If you had a tail right now, it would definitely wag like a propeller.

"Well, as long as you're happy. As for your money, save it for gas." Qin Che nudged your butt and continued walking towards the parking lot.

You wrapped your arms around his neck, leaned forward, and tilted your head to give Qin Che a quick peck on the cheek: "Okay~~~ First, a little something sweet~~~"

A deep, pleasant laugh escaped Qin Che's throat.

You feel better now.

Qin Che, oh Qin Che~

So easy to coax~~~
