Why was I assigned to be a horse girl?

To be honest, shareholders and investors around the world are the most sensitive to this... After all, it's a major matter that affects everyone's wallets, so it's impossible not to be sensitive.

After Kotobuki and Hitsukoha officially signed their marriage certificate and got married, the Kotobuki Group's stock not only didn't fall, but actually rose even further... This means that most people in the world are quite satisfied with Kotobuki Toru and Hitsukoha's choice.

It's not hard to imagine that most of these people are probably here because of Hitoko. Just because of Hitoko's strong and healthy appearance and her status as a legendary racehorse girl, everyone can have a lot of confidence... and expectations for the couple's offspring.

The children of Hitokohaku are unlikely to have poor physical health, and as long as they are healthy, everything will be fine. Therefore, the Kotobuki Group's stock is definitely worth holding for the long term!

After a brief discussion about the Kotobuki Group's stock, Takasaka Junyi, who had been listening for a while, grew impatient. With a light tap of her finger, she switched her focus to the entertainment section. After reading only a few items, this gossip-loving otaku girl exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, did you guys see this? The observation deck on the top floor of the Kotobuki Group building was closed the other night because of electrical maintenance."

Upon hearing this, Da Zhenhan turned to look at Gao Shangjunyi's phone. Seeing that Gao Shangjunyi's phone simply displayed news, he asked in confusion, "Equipment maintenance, circuit repair, and the like... isn't that a normal thing? Why are you so agitated, Little Hat?"

Opportunity and victory are always reserved for the prepared racehorse girls. So recently, while most of the racehorse girls were still on vacation, Big Shock had already begun preparing for the Grand Prix of Triumph, and therefore did not know much about the others.

But the woman, oblivious to everything around her, was utterly shocked... Her extensive intelligence network had left her even more astonished than when she'd just seen the Kotobuki Group's stock rise: "Hmm? The day before yesterday... I remember Fat Rabbit went to visit the Kotobuki Group's building with Kotobuki Toru, didn't he?"

Upon hearing the lady's words, Gao Shangjunyi also recalled: "I remember now! Amber didn't come when we had dinner the night before last. The reason she gave was... that she fell down when she went to hand in the invitation to the Central Teresen Cherry Blossom Festival last time, so she wanted to visit it again this time."

Furthermore, as everyone knows, last time Hitsukoha failed to reach the observation deck on the top floor of the Kotobuki Foundation Building and fell down the stairs. So, if it's to make up for that previous regret... Hitsukoha will definitely go to the top of the Kotobuki Building again.

Then, considering that on the same day, the top floor of the Kotobuki Foundation building was undergoing maintenance...

There are only two reasons that everyone can think of:

Either the building's property management team has gone mad and is deliberately trying to sow discord between the future boss and the building, so they sealed it off for maintenance while the boss was bringing people over for a visit.

Or perhaps... the future leader found a reason to request the building be sealed off, and the reason for this request should be that everyone needs a private space and is preparing to do some relatively private things on the top floor of the Kotobuki Foundation Building.

Looking at Fei Tu Hu Po's slightly flushed face, Da Zhen was still unable to connect the dots and asked cutely, "Oh? Hu Po, you went that day? Isn't that a pity? You didn't get to see the view from the top floor..."

--------

The fifth update is here!

Today's total updates have exceeded 1.

Wow, I'm so strong...

Chapter 513 How strong are the floor-to-ceiling windows of the Kotobuki Foundation?

"It's a real shame you couldn't see the view from the top floor of the Kotobuki Building, Amber."

Da Zhen, with a look of sympathy, patted Hitoko's little head, then, as if to make up for Hitoko's regret of never having been up there, he took the initiative to describe it: "A long time ago, I went there once to improve the school uniforms of the Disciplinary Committee. What I saw then was that there were huge floor-to-ceiling windows on the roof. When I stood by the window... Tokyo Skytree is right next to the Kotobuki Building. If you leaned close to the window and looked down slightly, you could see it. It looked like you were standing on top of it, especially when the lights were on at night. It was so beautiful..."

Jifeng nodded in agreement, his eyes filled with nostalgia: "Especially during that time, to celebrate Amber becoming the first Japanese horse girl to win the American Triple Crown, the lights on the Skytree were deliberately changed to the same crimson color as Amber's hair. It looked like cyberpunk on rainy days!"

Most of the horse girls present were from wealthy families with extensive social circles. In addition, given Shinichi Kotobuki's seemingly insane wide-net strategy a few years ago and his admission standard of only accepting healthy and strong horse girls, most of the people present had visited the top floor of the Kotobuki Building.

Although these horse girls have different personalities and preferences, after truly witnessing the scenery above the clouds, they all unanimously agreed that it would be a real pity if Hitoko hadn't been to the top floor.

With her exceptional perception, Hito Amber could naturally sense the regret in everyone's voices... So Hito Amber was caught off guard by everyone's concern and, in order to respond to their kindness and dispel their sympathy, she blurted out without thinking, "Um... I know what you're saying, and I've seen everything I needed to see... Especially that floor-to-ceiling window, at first I was worried that people outside might see us... I was so nervous."

--------------

Actually, it was pretty much the same as the lady's guess. All that talk about circuit maintenance and temporary closure was fake. The night before last, Hitotsu Kohaku really did go to the top floor of the building with Kotobuki Toru and had a dinner in the sky... and that dinner was only because of Hitotsu Kohaku.

Although Kotobuki Toru's current job is a trainer, and apart from sharing the same surname Kotobuki, he has no connection with the Kotobuki Foundation, it would be a pipe dream for him to try to book the entire Kotobuki Building or even refuse entry to the top floor in his current capacity.

But Hitotsukoha's influence is too great... The mastermind behind the Kotobuki Group, Kotobuki's mother genuinely likes Hitotsukoha, this cute, innocent, and pure-hearted daughter-in-law, especially her tail. Therefore, when she heard that Kotobuki Toru had gone to visit the Kotobuki Group, Kotobuki's mother didn't have any emotional fluctuations. She even warned the security guards on site to keep an eye on all the offices and not let Kotobuki Toru wander around. She told them to get rid of him unless it was a big deal, since he is still technically a member of Treson.

However, when Kotobuki's mother learned that Kotobuki Toru wasn't the only one visiting the Kotobuki Foundation—Hitoshi Kohaku was also there—she immediately put on a dramatic face-changing act. One second she was directing operations from the perspective of a ruthless business tycoon, and the next she was instantly transformed into a motherly figure. All her previous pronouncements about protecting trade secrets, getting to the point, and leaving were null and void… In their place came entirely new demands and suggestions—find some excuse to seal off the entire rooftop area, seal off the area below the roof, and turn off all the cameras and electronic devices upstairs. She wanted to completely transform the rooftop into a private space for two, where they could talk and do whatever they wanted…

Since Kotobuki's mother had said so, and the two of them were already full after their candlelight dinner, and the languid and ambiguous atmosphere of Tokyo's nightlife... Hitobuki Kohaku was then persuaded by Kotobuki to go to the huge floor-to-ceiling window to overlook the entire night view of Tokyo.

While marveling at how good it is to be rich and how amazing the Tokyo night view is, Kotobuki Toru also touched Hitsukohaku's back. Then came the classic scene of Hitsukohaku looking at the scenery and Kotobuki Toru looking at Hitsukohaku... During this time, Hitsukohaku also tested and evaluated the structural strength of the giant floor-to-ceiling glass by directly contacting and squeezing various parts of her body, such as her hands, feet, face, and buttocks.

The test results showed that the glass is very strong. Not only can you lean on it to enjoy the view, but even if you jump on it and step on it with both feet, it will not leave any scratches or marks.

----------

When Fei Tu Hu Po finished speaking, she was still lost in thought... and didn't realize how weighty her words were. But as the saying goes, the speaker may not have meant anything by it, but the listeners took it to heart, and the horses around her immediately perked up their ears.

The lady teased, "Well, it's alright... The glass on the top floor of the Kotobuki Building is the kind of one-way glass that has been specially treated. No matter what you're doing behind the glass, it's impossible for someone outside to see you. After all, it would be quite troublesome if someone used a drone to spy on you from outside the window while you were doing business."

After the noblewoman finished speaking, the noble Junyi, filled with a sense of justice and high moral character, picked up the small bread he was using to fill his stomach and threw it at Kotobuki Toru, who was pretending to be asleep. It hit Kotobuki Toru on the head with a "smack". "Still pretending to be asleep... You bastard, you just know how to bully Kohaku-chan because she's never seen the world... You think she doesn't know anything about one-way mirrors?"

However, after a slight pause, Gao Shangjunyi, who had extensive reading experience but zero practical experience, couldn't help but ask, "By the way, I wanted to ask again... was Amber-chan, who was panicked and in a state of tension, putting a lot of pressure on you?"

Kotobuki Toru, who had been pretending to be asleep while leaning back in his car seat, was getting redder and redder. In the end, he couldn't hold on any longer and coughed twice. "Cough cough... He's pretty strong."

The first update is here!

Please please please please

I'll grit my teeth and see if I can update more today.

Chapter 514 Who is the real Warhorse Girl?

"Waaaah... I was even feeling sorry for you, Amber-chan, but I didn't expect you to have experienced so much..."

They exchanged words back and forth for a long time, like a cryptic dialogue. After piecing together the various fragments of their conversations and clues, Da Shi finally revealed a belatedly shocked expression.

"What I didn't expect was that you experienced what everyone else had experienced on the rooftop of the Kotobuki Building... and you even experienced things that no one else had..."

A blush instantly spread across Fei Tu Hu Po's cheeks, like maple leaves dyed with morning dew: "Actually, I didn't really want to experience something like this... It was Tou Tou who insisted that I try it."

"But you didn't refuse, did you?" The noblewoman patted Amber's shoulder and teased, "Admit it, although you lack common sense, fat rabbit, it's precisely because you lack common sense that you play much bigger games than most people."

From the perspective of other horse girls, Hibiki Amber has a kind of loyalty to her friends... She rarely spoils other people's fun. In real life, it's like if you call her at midnight to invite her out for a late-night snack, she'll nod and come along no matter how sleepy she is...

Kotobuki Toru wanted to put his bold idea into practice on Hitokohaku, saying "I have a plan." Hitokohaku verbally disagreed, but then half-heartedly agreed and finally followed Kotobuki Toru's plan. Then the two of them worked together to help clean up the mess...

"Hey, by the way, Fat Rabbit, did you clean up the mess you left behind? Did you remove all those footprints and handprints?"

Fei Tu Hu Po buried her face in her chest and nodded repeatedly, "Of course... I'd be too embarrassed to trouble others... Anyway, there was nothing unusual left behind!"

To avoid leaving too many traces and to destroy the evidence, Higanbana even chose to put everything inside her stomach and take it with her...

"Look, look! This is the kind of virtuous and responsible woman." The lady clapped her hands with admiration.

"Is it too late for me to jump out of the car now?"

As Da Zhen listened to the girls' sweet, girlish chatter, his CPU was about to burn out. Although they were all close to graduation, they were still incredibly innocent and beautiful girls. So innocent that even if they found a boyfriend, they might still do something like some game characters, like kneeling down and saying something serious like, "Please accept my..."

Overwhelmed with embarrassment and helplessness, Da Zhenchang turned his gaze to Almond Eyes beside him: "Almond Eyes... Almond Eyes, you're Amber's secretary now, hurry up and torture her a bit."

"Hey, I think Boss Tu is the role model for us all!" She looked up, her almond-shaped eyes slightly flushed, but the agreement and admiration on her face were genuine. "Being with someone you like means loving them with all your heart!"

"Oh no, I think the new generation at Central Trexon might be a lost generation." Da Zhen could only wipe his face with his hand. "Even you, Almond, are like this. And Almond, you've come to England with us. What about Central Trexon?"

"It's alright, it's alright. There won't be any big events at Central Treisen in August or September. Boss Tu and I can just direct remotely... Besides, before I left, I suggested that when Boss Tu runs the Yorkshire Oaks Race, the academy should assign each student a reflection. That should keep them writing until the first day of school."

"That's awful..."

----------

The bus bumped along the winding road for half an hour before finally stopping in front of a lakeside villa.

The villa in front of us is a typical European castle, with dark green vines climbing the stone walls. Time has etched mottled marks on the arched windows and carved railings. The lake next to the villa is crystal clear, reflecting the sky, with fish swimming back and forth from time to time. In the backyard of the villa is a very professional-looking racetrack for female horse racers, with dirt and grass side by side. When the group arrived, there were professional mechanics driving a professional leveling vehicle to maintain the track.

However, what caught the eye the most was the row of weapon racks along the edge of the track, weapons that had only been seen on the screen: swords, spears, halberds, and spears gleamed coldly, axes, hooks, and forks were of ancient and simple design, and there were more than a dozen kinds of weapons, from long-handled halberds to short-bladed daggers.

"Wow...this equipment is quite complete!" Amber was the first horse girl to spot the weapon rack by the meadow. "They even have these training equipment..."

Not only did Fei Tu Hu Po notice these strangely shaped weapons at first glance, but for some reason, when her gaze swept over those strange weapons, a strange sense of familiarity suddenly welled up in her heart, as if her dormant bloodline was calling out, and her fingertips itched so much that she wanted to grab the long handle and swing it a few times to cut something.

After Hitotsu Amber, the horse girls who got off the carriage behind her also gradually saw these weapons.

They were all stunned and stood there dumbfounded, completely unable to believe that these Chinese-style metal weapons would be placed in such a European castle...

Gao Shangjunyi immediately hid behind his older sister, poked his head out, and asked, "Hey... by the way, Star of the Sea, is our mom... like Amber-chan, a warhorse girl in her ancestry?"

"Of course not, there aren't that many warhorse girls in the world."

Without much thought, Haidu Star shook his head and denied Gao Shangjunyi's words. "Actually, I asked my mom a long time ago. She said she's not some kind of warhorse girl... It's just that we have ancestors who liked to collect weapons and armor. And because they collected so much, it was passed down from generation to generation... Coincidentally, my mom also likes these metal objects, so she just put them out there and plays with them whenever she has time."

"Is this...is this reasonable?" Fei Tu Hu Po still couldn't visualize the city of Hai Du in her mind based on the description of Hai Du Star.

However, at this moment, Narcissus, carrying all sorts of tools, staggered up to Hitotsu Amber's side: "Well, don't worry so much about whether she's a warhorse girl or not. Anyway, I think... as long as a horse girl has Chinese blood, she has some warrior blood in her body."

Narcissus lowered her voice as she spoke: "Take Star of the Sea City for example. Although she usually looks like an ordinary racehorse girl... just because she clenches her fists when she's anxious, I think she could actually switch from a racehorse girl to a warhorse girl at any time."

"Hey, are all the female horses in China monsters?"

Narcissus looked at Scarlet Amber speechlessly: "Don't you also have Chinese blood?"

"It seems so..."

-----------

The second update is coming!

Please please ...

There should be more chapters.

Chapter 515 Haidu City (Bounty 48)

The crowd was gathered in front of the wrought iron gate, discussing whether the bloodline of the Chinese horse girl contained a talent for warfare.

But before the discussion could last more than a few minutes, the villa's iron gate was pushed open, and a female horse racer dressed in a close-fitting outfit walked out. Her sharp gaze swept over the female racers present, and her eyes lingered on Hitotsu Amber for a long time... with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

Finally, that sharpness transformed into a smile on her lips. When she looked at Haidu Zhixing, her eyes and brows softened with warmth: "Since you're already here, just come in... Haidu Zhixing, who brings their friends home to play and then makes them stand at the door?"

"I know, I know."

Hai Du Zhi Xing pouted, but her face was filled with a sweet smile. She turned around, her ponytail sweeping through the air in a light arc, and said to everyone, "Hey everyone, this is my mom, Hai Du Shi!"

Before the words were even finished, everyone turned around in unison, and whispers arose amidst the fluttering of their clothes.

Hitotsu Amber, who knew little about the 'mother' role, was the first to ask: "By the way, TouTou, isn't this really the older sister of the Star of the Sea? Judging from the amount of collagen in her face, I think the 30-something Kitahara trainer could be the father of the City of the Sea..."

"Don't talk badly about others behind their backs..."

Kotobuki Toru reached out and pressed her head down, the warmth of his palm carrying a hint of helplessness. "Kitahara's body was drained by studying when she was young... and then Oguri Hat drained her energy, which is why she looks like she's sixty when she's only thirty."

"Hey, TouTou, aren't you making it sound even more impressive? I didn't even say Kitahara Yutaka was sixty years old..."

"Well, it's a good thing Kitahara isn't here. If he were here, and we were all standing together, he would look at least sixty years old, if not sixty."

After saying that, Kotobuki Toru turned the topic back and shifted everyone's attention to Haidu City: "I heard that Haidu City got married and had Haidu Star quite early... She's not even 40 yet, and with Ma Niang's strong genes, she doesn't look old easily, so it's reasonable for her to look like Haidu Star's older sister... Maybe she can still hold her own against you guys now."

"Wow." Fei Tu Hu Po's eyes lit up like glass goblets. "So, should I call her Aunt Hai Du City now, or Sister Hai Du City?"

Kotobuki Toru thought for a moment and decided to give Hitoko Amber advice according to the social etiquette of "calling her by a higher title": "Then I think it's better to call her Auntie... After all, you and Haidu Star are of the same generation. If you call her mother 'older sister,' what will Haidu Star call you? Wouldn't that make things complicated?"

"It makes sense..."

"What kind of logic is this? Shouldn't we address girls with more respect? Kotobuki Toru's straight-male and bureaucratic thinking is one thing... Hitoko Amber, you've been taken advantage of so many times, how come you still have such a straight-male mindset..."

But Narcissus rudely interrupted their discussion, his face full of speechlessness: "Besides, we're here to ask for a favor, so we should do whatever makes them happy... Listen to me, just call her 'sister'!"

Hibiki Amber was immediately in a dilemma. She looked left at the lyre player and right at Narcissus. After thinking for a long time, she finally decided to listen to Narcissus, the madam.

So Kotobuki Toru decisively turned around and bowed earnestly to Haidu City: "Hello, Haidu City sister! I am Hitoko Amber, a good friend of Haidu Star!"

The other horse girls around had listened to the entire discussion between Hitoko, Kotobuki, and Narcissus. Seeing that Hitoko finally called out "older sister" without hesitation, they all followed suit: "Hello, older sister from Umi City! We are friends from Umi City Star."

……

As everyone perceived it, time seemed to stand still for a few seconds. Suddenly, Hai Dudu chuckled and said, "The Starfish's friends... are quite interesting indeed."

Hitoko and Kotobuki stared at each other, not knowing what Kaito was thinking, but just by looking at her smile, they felt that they had made the right bet.

Then, Hai Dushi calmly gave the horse girls a fist and palm salute with a touch of江湖 (jianghu, the martial arts world) flair, the wind from his sleeves carrying a faint scent of pine: "Welcome everyone to my home. I am Hai Dushi, the mother of Hai Du Star."

Gao Shangjunyi looked around at his older and younger sisters beside him and asked, "Are we done with this?"

"What's this about passing or failing? It's not like an exam, why make such a fuss?"

Hai Dudu laughed even more heartily, his whole demeanor becoming increasingly dashing. He stepped aside and gestured for everyone to come in with one hand outstretched: "You are my daughter's friends, and also my juniors. I should be mindful of my words and actions."

"No need, no need, Sister Haidu, you're so cool!" Fei Tu Hu Po straightened up and walked into the villa's courtyard. "You really are cool! Just like a female knight-errant from a novel."

"Hey, what a coincidence! The first time I saw you, Little Amber, I also felt that you had the air of a great general."

"Thank you..." Fei Tu Hu Po scratched her head, unable to tell whether Hai Du City was just exchanging pleasantries or being serious.

--

Upon entering the "Haidu" family's residence, before anyone had even had a chance to tour the facilities, settle their luggage, or choose a room, they immediately felt the warm hospitality of the Chinese people.
