The mediocre trainer doesn't want to reopen

When Rudolph said this, more tears oozed from her pupils. She burst into tears, sobbing and covering her cheeks, sobbing painfully: "Apart from these...what else do I have the qualifications to compete..."

"I know... I'm not gentle, I'm unreasonable... I'm lazy, stubborn, and selfish... I'm like this... without the halo that my family has given me... what qualifications do I have to win his favor..."

"Without the halo of my family, I'm just a horse girl who can't be any worse... I don't dare... I don't dare..."

"I can't compare to those horse girls who also like him... How can I compare to them..."

The more he said this, the more Rudolf revealed his fragile and unconfident side that he had hidden deep in his heart - and it was not until now that Sirius finally understood why Rudolf could not give up his family or sever the shackles of his family.

She was afraid of returning home. She was afraid that if she lost all the support of her family, all the dignity and dominance she had displayed on the surface would disappear with her leaving the family, and her true side would be exposed to everyone.

There is no doubt that the reason why Rudolph became the student union president and received the support of so many people was of course because of the support of her family. If Rudolph was just a civilian president, the difficulties she faced would obviously be greater.

In the eyes of others, she will no longer be a superior being, and the impact of this will undoubtedly lead to more challenges to Rudolf's authority.

Of course, her greater fear is Rudolf's lack of confidence in her own nature - she is afraid that once this side of her nature is exposed, Kitano will be disappointed and even stay away from her.

Because her nature is indeed not pleasing, even she herself knows it.

Without the halo of the family, the unquestionable majesty is nothing but simple unreasonableness, and the arbitrary arrogance of one person is nothing but a manifestation of selfishness.

Rudolf was afraid that this side of herself would cause her to completely lose the person she loved... because she knew that no one would love someone like her, someone with such a twisted personality.

It's not that she can't live without her family, but she can't live without the "confidence" her family gives her, the confidence that allows her to compete no matter what she does.

Without this confidence, she would just be an ordinary, unreasonable horse racing girl.

How could she compete with someone like that? What about Qi Cao and Bai Ren from her previous life, Qian Ming's representative, and Sirius? Who among them wasn't stronger than Rudolph?

And now, she even has to face more horse girls who are younger than her. What about Altan Mejiro, who has the same status as her but can easily control the power of the family at any time, and has a better personality and appearance than her?

No, without these, she had nothing.

"So...that's what happened."

Sirius understood all of this, took a sip of coffee in a depressed mood, and put the empty coffee can aside. After a long while, he looked back at Rudolph and said softly, "Then, as long as you help our Emperor and gain control of everything in the Symbol Family—then, not only can you stay in the Family, but you can also get everything you want, right?"

"This is really difficult... The old woman is too good at controlling power... Unless, I join forces with you."

However, Sirius' words made Rudolph shudder all over. The next moment, she looked up at Sirius blankly, only to see a resolute and confident smile on Sirius's face. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to help you. I want to put an end to all this. We will put an end to all the family disputes in our hands. From now on, he will come to a symbolic home where there will be no more disputes."

"Besides, I'm not helping you for free, Your Majesty. I have my own price."

As she spoke, Sirius slowly extended a finger and said word by word to the bewildered Rudolph, "After we sisters have taken over everything in the Symbol House together—you can embrace the fruits of your victory, and I can give it to you, at least in name."

"But, nominally it belongs to you. Privately, you have to give me half of it. Is this price fair, Your Majesty?"

In the dark night, Sirius' words pierced Rudolph's heart like needles, and the chips offered by Sirius were even more unacceptable to Rudolph.

But slowly, Rudolph's lack of refusal confirmed her hesitation. She gradually realized that perhaps... she couldn't handle all this trouble on her own...

But... taking half of it, can she... really do it?

Chapter 271: The one whom the Holy King's Halo loves

On the other side, Kitano didn't know what Rudolf and Sirius were talking about after this incident. He didn't even know that he was being followed by Sirius and the Emperor. At this moment, he was taking the subway back to Tresen College. Along the way, he didn't say anything, and he didn't even think about turning on his mobile phone.

What was echoing in Kitano's mind at this moment were all the words he had talked with Rudolph before, as well as the last words he said to Rudolph before he left.

Did this mean he was...breaking up with Rudolph?

Probably, although Rudolph certainly didn't know what he wanted to express. He probably just felt that his "confession" hadn't been spoken yet, and because of his words, he swallowed them back into his stomach. Kitano had already restrained his tone of rejecting the confession, choosing the gentlest method possible.

It’s a pity…there are some things that only he can understand and bear.

Forget it. I’ve been hurt so many times that I’m numb and used to it. I’ll just go back and take a shower and go to bed.

Kitano tried his best to control his emotions, and unknowingly walked to the door of the team room. At this moment, he opened the door of the team room without thinking much, but was soon slightly dazzled by the light in front of him.

Who else is here this late? Bei Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, but at this moment he saw the figure of the person who stayed in the room, and looked a little surprised.

"Ah, you're back, sooner than I thought."

Saint King Aura in the team room heard the door open and subconsciously looked up. When he saw Kitano, he almost couldn't help but smile. Then he lowered his head and said, busy with the things in his hands, "How was your date? I have to go back soon. The rest of the winning uniforms are almost done. In a day or two, if you don't give me any more trouble by inviting more horse girls, everyone's winning uniforms should be finished."

"Ah... I've been drawing for a long time and I'm a little hungry. Could you please make me some midnight snacks? The midnight snacks in the cafeteria are not very suitable for me."

"Okay, let me do it."

Faced with the request made by Saint King Halo at this moment, Kitano, who was in a very depressed mood, almost immediately withdrew all his negative emotions into his heart, turned to the Saint King with a gentle smile, and gently agreed.

However, Kitano obviously remembered to control his emotions, but forgot to control his throat which had been choked with sobs for a long time. When he opened his mouth, the tone revealed made the Holy King, who had not noticed Kitano's expression due to the light, put down the pen in his hand immediately.

She raised her head and looked at Kitano's face, which seemed to be aware of his own gaffe. Only then did she notice that something was wrong with Kitano's mood.

"what happened to you?"

Saint King Halo noticed that something was wrong with Kitano, and immediately put down all the work in her hands and walked forward. At this moment, when she saw Kitano's slightly red and swollen pupils and his face that could only be described as miserable, her pupils could not help but shrink slightly.

"Why...are you crying? What happened? Who did you go see this time?"

"Nothing, it's all over. There's no need to ask anymore."

Kitano didn't really want to spread his negative emotions to the people around him, especially someone as sensitive as the Holy King. He wiped his cheeks to make himself look more energetic, then said with a bitter smile, "Holy King, I'm not in a good mood. Today... let's go back early. Don't let me affect you."

"I'd like you to supervise tomorrow's training on my behalf. I might not be in the mood."

Kitano said this, thinking that it would take him some time to come over. He gave the Holy King some instructions and then planned to go to his room to have a good rest.

However, before Kitano could take a few steps, his palm was suddenly grabbed by the Holy King's aura. With the power of Uma Musume, Kitano had no way to break free from the Holy King's perfect suppression. He only heard her say softly, "Who do you think you are? You still want to order the First-Class around? I said you need help, and you need help."

"Now, sit down and forget about all those troubles. Let me make you a midnight snack."

Although it was an order, there was no unnecessary coercion in the words coming from the Holy King. The Holy King used his own power to guide Kitano to a seat nearby. He then picked up an apron and began to make a midnight snack for Kitano.

Of course, the Holy King's cooking skills were not that great, even worse than most horse girls. She didn't even have the above-average cooking skills of He Hao Opera, so there weren't many midnight snacks she could make.

But she can still add a little noodles and make a bowl of warm food.

However, there was only one person who could make her do this, and she was only willing to do something that she was not good at for him without worrying about being laughed at.

After a while, as Kitano waited in silence, Saint King Halo placed the noodles in front of Kitano. He put his hands on his hips and said softly with a smug tone that seemed to be deliberately trying to get Kitano to praise him, "Okay, eat it well. After you finish, forget everything."

"Thank you, Holy King."

For Kitano, who didn't want to say anything at the moment, the noodles served by the Holy King was a great improvement. She was also considerate enough to add an extra egg for him... Although it was a little overcooked, this kind of clumsy care was what Kitano needed most at the moment.

There were no extra words, and no need for excessive explanation. Saint King knew that Kitano didn't want to say anything more, so she naturally wouldn't deliberately expose Kitano's scars.

At least, judging from Kitano's expression, he looks like he's been dumped... You know, he must have suffered some emotional blow, which is why he's so hesitant in this regard.

And the person who had hurt him... seemed incredibly important to him. The Holy King rarely saw Kitano cry. The only time she remembered Kitano crying in front of her was when she won the Takamatsunomiya Memorial Championship, her first GI championship.

Therefore, for the Holy King, seeing Kitano who had suffered such a huge blow and looked so embarrassed and depressed, she felt that in Kitano's heart, that person might be more important than her.

I don't know why, but I feel a little uncomfortable.

The Holy Queen belatedly realized that she was experiencing a knot in her stomach that she hadn't felt before. But before she could even register what it was, Kitano had already put down his chopsticks and finished the midnight snack she had made.

"Thank you, Holy King. I feel much better now."

Kitano, feeling full, felt as if the emptiness in his heart had been filled. However, he lowered his head, staring at his own reflection in the noodle soup. After a long pause, he said with a wry smile, "I'm sorry... I'm making you see me like this. Isn't it ridiculous?"

"It's nothing. We all feel tired and fragile sometimes. I feel that way too, and so do you."

The Holy King seemed to feel sorry for the man and gently stroked his back. He whispered to him, "I won't be so harsh on you. Don't worry. We're alone here now."

"Just like you said...if you want to cry, just cry. That way you'll feel a little better."

"I can also, like you, accept a temporarily vulnerable you."

After saying that, before Kitano could react, he felt a soft body slowly pressing against his back, and a slight weight appeared on his shoulders, trying to make him feel more warmth.

And at this moment, when Kitano slowly closed his eyes, his emotions finally broke out completely - he couldn't cry out loud, so he just shed tears silently, venting his emotions bit by bit.

Feeling Kitano's slightly sobbing body in his arms, although he could not see Kitano's expression, the Holy King could also feel his uncontrollable sadness. At this moment, the Holy King's emotions could no longer be as calm as they had been since he recovered his memory.

For some reason, when Kitano couldn't control herself, the Holy King seemed to be infected and unconsciously shed tears on Kitano's shoulder - her mood at this moment was not much lighter than Kitano's.

The reason she was crying was simply because the man in front of her, the one she cared about the most and who understood her best, was heartbroken. When the Saint King thought of him crying, he couldn't help but cry too.

"Don't worry about that person, forget it. At least, I'm still by your side."

"I won't leave you like that person did. Don't cry for the person who left you... If you do that, I will also be unable to control my emotions."

The Holy King whispered softly in Kitano's ear, and after she calmed down her emotions, a resolute light flashed in her slightly moist eyes.

Although... she didn't know who broke his heart, it was better not to let her find that guy.

She could allow Kitano to like other people, but she would not allow the only person she cared about to be sad because of anyone.

Anyone who hurts the person she cares about the most - no matter who it is, she will make that person pay the price and regret it for the rest of his life.

If you look down on him, then I'll let you feel how outstanding the person you just abandoned is. I will make you spend your whole life in regret!

Chapter 272: One step away from each other

After venting his emotions for a while, Kitano felt much more relaxed. After reaching out to wipe the tears from his face, he said in a calm tone, "I'm much better... Thank you, Holy King."

"Well, can you tell me now?" After seeing that Kitano had calmed down a bit, the Holy King wiped his tears on Kitano's shoulder without leaving a trace. Then he calmed down and asked, "So, who have you been dating lately without telling us horse racing girls? I didn't even know that you had time to date other women during your busy time recently."

As the Holy King spoke, his halo pouted slightly, his tail swaying slightly. The arms around Kitano's neck showed no sign of loosening. He asked with a tone that was hard to tell whether it was curiosity or bitterness: "Tell me, who on earth could catch your eye? After all, you are the trainer of a top-notch horse girl like me. The guy who can make you so sad should be no bad person, right?"

Saint King Halo was truly curious. Who was the woman who could have hurt the man she cared about so deeply? Now possessing memories of the past, Saint King, as Kitano's confidant, understood Kitano's psychological defenses perfectly. Kitano had put in a lot of effort to penetrate her psyche, and in turn, Saint King had put in just as much effort to move this man.

She wasn't the type to simply accept Kitano's kindness. She would repay him in return for whatever Kitano gave her. The Holy King and Kitano had discussed their future more than once.

Especially the question of who they might marry in the future was discussed the most by Sheng Wang and Kitano.

However, most of these conversations at that time did not produce any results. Kitano had not yet considered the subsequent issues, and the Holy King looked down on everyone... Of course, Kitano himself was also within the Holy King's elimination range at that time.

As for the reason... the Holy King also mentioned it, it was simply because he was too familiar with him and had no romantic feelings for him.

Therefore, the current Holy King is also very concerned about who this guy Kitano falls in love with that can make him cry so bitterly?

The Holy King wanted to see who that person was. Even she, a self-proclaimed top-notch horse racing girl, didn't think Kitano was bad, she just didn't have any feelings for him. What kind of fairy was that guy who dumped Kitano? She actually looked down on him.

This guy isn't too bad, is he? He's decent looking, can handle chores, and is a family-oriented type. Besides being surrounded by horse girls, he's pretty much the type to be desired these days, right?

On the other hand... the Holy King is a vengeful person. She has already said that she will make that woman regret her whole life. She needs to understand who that woman is before she can formulate plans and strategies.

"This... didn't you say not to mention it?"

Kitano obviously didn't want to tell the Holy King about this matter. The reason was very simple. He knew the Holy King's vengeful character too well.

If he told her that the man was Rudolf, and she got anxious and angry, she might really dare to provoke Rudolf. In the end, Kitano didn't know who would benefit, but the Holy King would definitely suffer.

Rudolph has a symbolic family behind him. Although the Holy King family is also quite prestigious, it is still not as good as the family of Japan's number one horse girl... Let's not cause unnecessary trouble.

What's more, although the Saint King's personality has changed drastically now, Kitano also feels that she is probably stimulated by some past memories like Mi Yu and Rudolph, but after all, the Saint King still doesn't know about him and Rudolph.

If Kitano said that he had a relationship with Rudolph... who would believe him?

"You just said it, I should let go of this relationship... Although I don't think I can do it, but maybe she and I won't have any more interactions."

"There's no future for her and me. The gap between us... is just too big."

"Gap? Oh, you mean class?"

The Holy King was slightly taken aback when he heard this, but he quickly realized what Kitano meant. He said in a somewhat strange tone, "So the one you like is an older lady? She's quite capable."

"But the gap is too big to be considered as such, right? Even if my family is considered first-class, it can't compare to that person's?"

"More than that, I can't compare to her..." Kitano also shook his head with a wry smile. There was a huge gap in class between the Holy King and Rudolph. The Holy King was considered a young lady in Tresen Academy, but compared to Rudolph, the gap was not just huge.

"But this is also good. It stops my thoughts. Let him go of this matter."

"Since you don't want to say, I won't ask." The Holy King made himself look bad, but he was not discouraged. Beiye didn't know, but she knew that the Emperor of the East China Sea had gone with them this time. If she asked the Emperor tomorrow, she would roughly know who the other party was.

After all, everyone in the aristocratic class has their own small circle, and there are only a few who are more high-class than her Saint King family. Even if the emperor does not know the other party, he can guess roughly by describing the other party's appearance and characteristics.

As for what happens next... that will be the time for that woman to regret for the rest of her life. She will have to pay the price for her narrow-mindedness and prepare to watch the glorious moments of this top-notch man beside her. By then, she will only be able to bite her handkerchief and cry alone, feeling so sad that she has nowhere to go.

The Holy King thought so and cast his gaze towards Kitano again. Seeing that Kitano's expression was still not that happy, the Holy King knew that he was still sad in his heart. He pursed his lips slightly and then said, "But... I didn't expect to see someone as sad as you... It's really rare."

"Really? That woman you like, apart from anything else, I must say she has very poor taste. She can't even see potential in someone."

"Don't worry, someone like you will definitely marry a very good woman in the future. You have many advantages - you can do housework and you are a caring person. You will definitely be a good husband in the future."

"It's rare for you, Saint King, to praise me like this." Bei Ye also found it amusing. The Saint King's transformation now surprised him. He asked with a bit of quirkiness, "Did you... have a strange dream? Mi Yu told me last time that she had a dream about me dying, which is why she's so afraid to get close to me."

"Did you also dream about me during this period, Holy King? What was in your dream?"

"Yes, I had a dream, a very long dream."
