Why was I assigned to be a horse girl?

Today I'm wearing a very lightweight dance training outfit... This outfit was designed with the issue of dancers generating a lot of heat and sweating in mind.

Therefore, the fabric of this garment is light and simple, so much so that even Hitotsu Kohaku couldn't feel its presence. If Kotobuki Toru were to help him, wouldn't he feel the same way?

That won't work!

"I can manage on my own. It's just standing as punishment. I can just lean against a wall!"

“Standing against the wall won’t do!” The teacher persisted, “My requirement now is for you to stand still, for several hours, even more than ten hours, with someone helping you adjust your center of gravity during that time… so that you can regain confidence in your right foot.”

"If you just stand there leaning against the wall like that, you'll lose that instinct to stand up straight! So now! Right now! Don't make me count to three!"

The teacher clapped his hands with a serious expression, and the domineering aura that only a person in a superior position could possess was instantly revealed on his beautiful face.

Hitotsu Kohaku and Kotobuki Toru shuddered and huddled together in fear.

Seeing that Kotobuki Toru also looked frightened, Hitobuki Amber curled her lip in disdain: "Why are you such a coward too? Just refuse him outright!"

"Then why don't you keep refusing?"

"You know me, right? I've done too many odd jobs... I'm instinctively afraid of bosses and clients. And teachers aren't ordinary people either. I think it'll be understandable if I act a little softer, right?"

"Then I should be able to be understood!"

Kotobuki Toru also found an excuse, speaking with righteous indignation: "Let me tell you, apart from my father, everyone in my family has been a gentleman for generations. As the saying goes, a good man doesn't fight with a woman, so I naturally have to show my gentlemanly manners and give way to her."

Of course, this was all a lie made up to save face. The truth is that Kotobuki Toru has been terrified of his powerful older sister for many years.

Moreover, Kotobuki has always believed in the parenting philosophy of "the eldest sister is like a mother" and "your older sister is your best big brother." If he doesn't listen to her, it's not impossible that she'll roll up her sleeves and beat him up on the spot.

"Why don't you try to persuade the teacher again?"

"I'm not going to go see that fierce woman..."

"I'm too scared to go. What should I do now?"

Kotobuki Toru and Hisakohaku exchanged a glance, then Kotobuki Toru thoughtfully glanced down at Hisakohaku's long, racehorse-girl legs. "Then we can only listen to her. If it really works... maybe it can even lessen the effects of your negative skills, right?"

Hitoko Amber pursed her lips, her long eyebrows trembling. Even though she was a racehorse girl, she couldn't deny Kotobuki's suggestion before experiencing it firsthand.

"Okay, okay."

Anyway, I've already experienced too many embarrassing things today, so one more... it's just another embarrassing chapter in my history.

Besides, as long as you don't think about it in a strange way and just treat it as a physical education student stretching each other's legs, you can pretend nothing happened afterwards!

That’s right!

In order to get to the point quickly, Hitotsu Kohaku launched a high kick directly in front of Kotobuki Toru. Before Kotobuki Toru could even see clearly, her powerful toe had already drawn a crescent moon beside him.

When the sharp gust of wind from the leg struck Qin Chuitou's face, it even gave him the illusion of being slapped in the face. It hurt quite a bit, and there was also a faint fragrance unique to Fei Tu Hu Po.

No wonder everyone in Chinese martial arts novels loves to fight with beautiful female warriors; the clash of swords, the fragrant breeze, and the tender romance amidst the fierce battles are every man's dream.

Before Kotobuki could even conjure up any romantic scenes of chivalry and adventure, Hitobuki's pleading voice interrupted her thoughts.

"Hey, I can't stand up! Help me!"

Fei Tu Amber stood on one leg, swaying unsteadily. She could have held the position for six or seven seconds just now, but now, due to the sudden change in training conditions, she couldn't even hold it for three seconds... She was getting worse and worse.

However, considering my height and leg length, I can just say that I can't stand anymore, then lean forward, and then deliver a powerful kick with my leg whip to knock the zither out and knock it unconscious. That way, everyone can have an excuse to take a holiday.

However, Kotobuki Toru did not give Hitsukohaku the chance to put her idea into practice. Seeing that Hitsukohaku was about to fall down, and even as she tilted in his direction, her calf muscles tensed up instantly, Kotobuki Toru, as Hitsukohaku's trainer who often observed her, could tell at a glance that Hitsukohaku was accumulating power, and accumulating power with ill intent!

Startled, Kotobuki Toru immediately grabbed Hitoko's ankle, pushing her towards a more upright position while asking warningly, "Why do I feel like you're planning to kill me?"

No, how could you think that?

Fei Tu Hu Po's face flushed slightly as she smiled slyly, "I just can't stand firm."

"Then get back to your original position right now."

Kotobuki continued to exert force, and also took the opportunity to summarize Hitoko's hip joint condition... purely from an academic perspective.

The ligaments are extremely resilient; to put it simply, they're as tough as the leather belt your dad used to whip you with. At the same time, the joints are incredibly flexible. When I pushed Fei Tu Hu Po, I didn't feel any resistance in the joints at all; it was like I'd spread butter on them...

The last time I had this kind of feel was when I assembled those Gundam models myself. Each one cost tens of thousands of yen, and the joints were extremely flexible, allowing me to manipulate and play with them at will.

Besides the joints... Kotobuki Toru also noticed other abnormalities.

"Amber, have you gained weight again? Why are you so heavy?"

Chapter 176 Amber's Little Thoughts

Although the Scarlet Amber looks small, its body weight is actually quite high.

100 jin, that's Ma Niang desu.

Moreover, this is just the pressure from Himeko Amber standing on one leg, barely able to stand... If there were any sudden events or accidents and I had to move Himeko Amber, wouldn't I be crushed to death by this fat horse?

Thinking this, Kotobuki Toru, with his waist and stance in perfect harmony, pushed Hitoko Amber's calves back to an upright and balanced position with his palms against her calves, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the white socks covering Hitoko Amber's calves.

The clean socks were slightly stretched open at the heels, revealing a white and pinkish hue, beautiful and moving, so stunning that it was almost dizzying to look at.

Out of politeness and to make sure she didn't let her thoughts wander any further, Kotobuki Toru turned to Kotobuki, who was watching the show from the back, and asked, "Now that you've been promoted, what should we do next?"

"Of course, keep holding her. If Amber's center of gravity shifts, help her correct it. Five minutes per set, then rest for three minutes and continue..." Kotobuki ruthlessly issued the training plan: "Time waits for no one. We need to make sure Amber develops her balance in the next two days!"

Helpless, Kotobuki could only hold onto Hitoko's ankles loosely, trying to get Hitoko to put her weight on herself.

Ten seconds, twenty seconds, one minute...

As Hitotsu Kohaku looked at Kotobuki Toru in front of her, she felt increasingly embarrassed. In fact, since her legs accounted for more than half of her height, when she put on the pose of lifting her front leg, the combined length of her two legs was almost two meters.

Even though Kotobuki Toru is very tall, with such a height difference, he still has to stand on tiptoe and raise his arms high to reach his calves in order to grab his ankles.

According to the triangle law: if the angle between the longer side and the hypotenuse is smaller, then the base will become shorter...

So now, the distance between Kotobuki and himself is actually closer than he imagined!

Kotobuki Toru's breathing was slightly rapid and hot from the increased exertion, and the lingering caramel and nutty aromas of coffee in his mouth from his earlier coffee consumption...

Fei Tu Hu Po was a little confused. This shouldn't be the case. Don't people say that college students who haven't graduated yet are most handsome when they first enter college?

When they first entered university, they really had a dashing and confident air about them. But as university life progressed, their intelligence and looks gradually declined, and by graduation... all that remained in their eyes was probably clarity and foolishness.

But Kotobuki Toru just felt a little different. Hito Kohaku thought about it carefully. Although Kotobuki Toru had been acting as if he wanted to do whatever he wanted and was unrestrained all this time... He usually wore whatever he wanted and dressed however he wanted.

Unlike other trainers who would secretly go to newsstands to buy the latest men's fashion magazines or look at outfits on short video platforms and follow the recommendations in those materials to keep up with the racehorse girls who are always at the forefront of fashion...

In the end, they silently suffered at the hands of the merchants selling their products, tearfully clicking the "confirm" button.

Of course, given the salaries and bonuses of the central trainers, buying those expensive clothes is just a way to "help the poor" and incidentally boost consumption and Japan's GDP. They might feel the pinch for a while, but that's all they'll feel...

After all, when the next clothing season arrives, we'll still be exploited by fashion bloggers, so we can't afford to ruin our relationship like this.

According to other female horse trainers' complaints, these trainers seem to be secretly buying clothes and picking up packages behind the horses' backs... they have a very strong sense of theft.

Even if their own team members discover that they are secretly buying clothes, they will almost always reply in unison, "These clothes were bought during online shopping sales. I don't know if they will fit... I'm just wearing them to see how they go."

The main thing is a tough talk.

In discussions and voting among Central Treisen racehorse fans, such "insincere" behavior by trainers was not considered a deduction, but rather a bonus by the vast majority of them.

Sneaky, cute, and all for the sake of improving their image and making the racehorse girls look good... So everyone felt mostly touched and grateful, and in this state of being touched and grateful, no one dared to say anything like:

[Trainer, you're dressed like you're going to do a live-streaming sales event. Is my prize money not enough to satisfy your desires?]

As far as I know, this outfit was already out of style last year, right? The retailer should send you a thank-you note; after all, you helped them clear out their inventory.

[Wow, trainer, my dad just bought this outfit yesterday and showed it off in a selfie... Now you're wearing something like this, I'm starting to dislike it.]

Such cruel words can shatter a person's self-confidence.

Moreover, it's not enough to try not to dampen the trainers' enthusiasm; some female racehorses have even chosen to encourage their trainers.

For a mature, maternal girl like Super Creek, who is naturally overflowing with maternal instincts and looks at her trainer like her own baby, she might even look at her trainer in a new outfit with a look of pride and exclaim, "Oh my, the trainer has grown up! I'm so happy!"—a sentiment that's almost embarrassing to admit…

However, it is very beneficial for the trainers. According to incomplete statistics from the Trainer Research Department under the Uma Musume Student Council, trainers who are praised for their outfits by Uma Musume smile 20% more often than usual, and their affection for Uma Musume also increases significantly.

Hitotsu Amber could understand these trainers. If it were her in the past, after wearing an outfit she had bought with great care and anticipation, she would receive praise from a beautiful and lovely horse girl... The effect would be much stronger than drinking ten cups of coffee. She would be so excited that she would jump up in the middle of the night, change into the clothes, and stand in front of the dressing mirror to admire herself.

Men, until the very end, are still that boy who loves to be praised!

These days, other female horse girls keep telling me how beautiful, pretty, and sexy I am, but I'm not moved at all. In fact, I feel really embarrassed... I no longer feel happy when female horse girls praise me.

However, looking at it from another perspective, I can also praise others as one of the beautiful horse girls!

Looking at Kotobuki Toru in front of her, Hitobuki felt a pang of regret...

Actually, I was thinking about when to give Kotobuki a proper compliment, so that he could experience a kind of joy that I could no longer experience.

It turns out this guy has always had great taste in clothing!

There was absolutely no chance for me to praise him!

Sorry for the wait, the first update is here!

Mwah mwah mwah

Please please please please

Chapter 177 Does Kotobuki Toru have a unique attraction for me?

So, Fei Tu Hu Po hugged her legs and asked somewhat unhappily, "By the way, Tou Tou, where did you learn all your fashion sense?"

"Huh? Fashion?" Kotobuki Toru thought for a moment, then sighed helplessly, "I haven't really studied it..."

Is there anything special you need to learn about dressing? From Kotobuki Toru's perspective, dressing should be based on your own preferences. If you see something you like, remember its style, and then optimize it according to your own physical characteristics...

However, this may also be because he grew up in a villa and the clothes worn by the people around him were carefully selected, which cultivated his own good taste.

Why are you suddenly asking this?

Fei Tu Hu Po pouted: "It's just that I suddenly feel like you're really good at dressing up..."

Or rather, I feel that Kotobuki Toru is actually very good at showcasing his charm. His clean and simple image, and the details from top to bottom are all done very well. No matter when you see Kotobuki Toru, you can never find any stubble on his face, and when he smiles, he is calm and confident...

It can be said that Kotobuki Toru's current appearance is exactly what Hito Kohaku dreamed of—steadfast and majestic, handsome and awe-inspiring.

Therefore, in the past, Hitotsu Amber would subconsciously pay considerable attention to such handsome and outstanding people.

But at the time, my purpose in paying attention to others was to learn, to imitate, and to surpass them.

But it seems that learning this now is useless... So what is the purpose of paying so much attention to Kotobuki Toru's every word and action?

Wait a minute! As she was searching for a reasonable explanation for her behavior, a sudden thought struck her—was it possible that this wasn't her problem?

Rather, it was the way the zither played that drew him in unconsciously!

I am the innocent one!

I was simply attracted by Kotobuki Toru!

That’s right!

Fei Tu Hu Po pouted and muttered, "Terrible man..."

"How is that scary? My resume says I'm friendly and approachable."

"No, it's just that you seem too reliable, almost too reliable... Being around someone like you makes me feel like I'd easily become a mindless cripple."

Kotobuki Toru retorted, "You haven't really thought about this much either, have you?"

Just a few seconds after Kotori finished criticizing Hitsuko, Kotori saw Hitsuko sway slightly before falling back towards him.

This time, Hibiki Amber didn't say a word. Even when she lost her balance, she just blinked, seemingly with ulterior motives.

Kotobuki reacted quickly, once again bracing against Hitoko's leg to prevent her from falling.

"Hiss... Why didn't you say anything when you couldn't stand?"

"I mainly wanted to see how well we clicked."

This time, the pressure from Hitoko Amber seemed even stronger than before... In addition to the pressure from Hitoko Amber due to gravity, Kotobuki Toru also felt that Hitoko Amber was intentionally or unintentionally pressing her body weight onto him.

What does this mean? The horse girl suddenly shifted all her weight onto me...?

Faced with knowledge beyond textbooks, Kotobuki Toru was also a little flustered. Ever since he grabbed Hitoko's ankle, Kotobuki Toru had a hallucination that Hitoko had started thinking for the first time today, but he was not quite sure what she was thinking about. And now Hitoko was pressing down on him intentionally or unintentionally.

What does this mean? Testing her strength? Showing off her weight?
