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

When you came out after showering, Qin Che was already sitting on the sofa in the master bedroom.

He's wearing the same gray loungewear you're wearing, and he's scrolling through something on his phone.

Seeing you come out, I put down my phone and waved to you: "Come here, let me blow-dry your hair."

You obediently step forward and snuggle into his arms.

The hairdryer was whirring, and you inadvertently noticed that Qin Che's phone screen was lit up, showing the photos he had just been looking at.

You pointed at his phone and asked, "What are you looking at? Can I look?"

"It's a top secret. If you know too much, you'll be killed," Qin Che joked maliciously.

"Hmph, I'll watch anyway, let's see if you're willing to kill me." You went along with his nonsense.

"It's not a good thing to get involved in gambling at such a young age."

"Have I gambled enough since I met you?"

"Hmm...that seems to be the case." Qin Che continued what he was doing, nodding in agreement.

"Fortunately, because it's you, I always win my bets."

Just by looking at the back of your head, Qin Che can guess what a smug look you have on your face right now.

"Then let's see, but I'm afraid you'll probably be disappointed."

"I'll see first." You picked up the phone and realized that the photo showed an adorable orange cat.

"A cat? Was the filming today done in this villa?"

"Yeah, I went to the basement to get you some wine. That's when it appeared. It wasn't afraid of people at all, and it kept rubbing against my legs. It looked exactly like you, so I couldn't resist taking a picture."

"I never rubbed against you like that." You vehemently denied it.

"No? Do you want me to help you remember?"

Qin Che turned off the hairdryer and combed your completely dry hair back.

Then I reached out and turned your shoulder, saying, "Just like this, rub your head back and forth like a kitten eager to leave its scent on me. How about that, I imitated you perfectly, didn't I?"

You giggled as his fluffy hair tickled you, and then, not to be outdone, you said, "You're not imitating it right. It should be like this." Then you demonstrated it yourself. "Look, this is how it should be."

"Yes, indeed. I didn't quite capture the essence just now. Do it again, and I'll learn it properly."

You raise your hand and punch him: "Stop, stop, stop, that's enough. Can I go check on it now?"

"Yes, I fed it some food, it should still be there."

You and Qin Che arrived at the basement, but after looking around, you couldn't find the kitten.

"Shhh."

Suddenly, Qin Che made a shushing gesture at you.

You looked up at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Listen carefully." He gestured for you to look at a cabinet in the corner.

"Meow...meow..." A faint sound came from the other end.

"Is it the same one from before?"

"It doesn't sound like that, it sounds like a kitten."

"Could it be the same child from before?"

"It's possible."

Qin Che moved a footstool over, stood on it, and peered inside.

You found a small box to stand on, but you still had to stand on tiptoe to barely get your line of sight to the top of the cabinet.

"Where is it? I can't see it... Can you see it?"

"Jump."

Qin Che reached out a hand, and you grabbed his hand to use it for leverage as you jumped.

As it rose and fell, the black and red energy hooked another box, which landed right at your feet.

You pulled him by the hand to steady yourself, and finally, in the shadows near the corner of the wall on top of the cabinet, you saw a small, orange, fluffy ball huddled up.
