Ardan hadn't expected that even though he'd hidden himself so well before finding Kitano, Kitano would still see through his worries. After subconsciously touching his cheek, Ardan said with a somewhat helpless smile, "I've been seen through, Trainer-san... I do have some things bothering me... No, rather, some things that make me happy, but also feel a little inappropriate."

"Trainer-san... do you have any plans for our future? Like... getting married or something like that?"

"what?"

However, when Aldan suddenly brought up the matter that had troubled Kitano half an hour earlier, Kitano subconsciously didn't react. Instead, Aldan's face flushed with shyness as he softly said, "That was Grandmother's words... This wasn't my idea. Grandmother sent me a message today saying she's planning a wedding for me and Trainer-san."

"Although the timing seems a bit awkward, Grandmother seems to feel that it can't be delayed any longer. So, the date is set for this time next year... which is the day when the Arima Memorial ends."

"..." Did you all come together? Or do you think I have the ability to clone myself? Can I attend both weddings at the same time? For a moment, upon hearing this news, Kitano immediately gave up his original idea.

He felt that if he didn't expose the inexplicable tacit understanding between the two family heads, a scene that would make Kitano feel even more embarrassed would occur on the wedding day - no matter which wedding he attended, he would definitely offend people.

Chapter 382: Solution to the wedding crash

"I actually didn't know this news at first. Today, Grandmother asked the bodyguard to bring me the news. Then I found out that Grandmother had already set a date...the date for our wedding ceremony."

Even Aldan seemed a little shy when she told the person she had loved for a long time their wedding date in person. Although she had loved Kitano for a long time and they had even been husband and wife for a period of time in the past, their relationship was not real husband and wife, but they were definitely husband and wife in name only.

If Aldan didn't really love Kitano, how could she have become Kitano's nominal wife with the tacit consent of the head of the Mejiro family?

Given Aldan's personality, if it wasn't someone she truly loved, even if she had really saved the other person's life, she would never agree to such a way of thanking him. Even if the other person was her trainer, even if she only had half a year left to live, she would choose to live the most relaxed and happiest way for herself, rather than marrying someone casually and experiencing such a life.

She was willing to marry Kitano, of course, because she loved Kitano and was willing to devote the rest of her life to him - however, although the two were already married, there was one regret, which was that they did not have a wedding.

After all, although the head of the Mejiro family condoned Aldan's actions at the time, all these actions were actually carried out in secret. It can be said that except for the members of the Mejiro family themselves, the outside world knew nothing about this matter.

After all... the head of the Mejiro family didn't want the outside world to know that his most promising heir had married the man he loved just because he had little time left. This would only cause them more trouble and even disturb their final days.

Therefore, even though Kitano and Aldan became husband and wife, the head of the Mejiro family did not hold a wedding for them in order to protect them. Even this small ceremony was just a small ceremony that Kitano hung some wedding ribbons in his and Aldan's room to make it feel like a wedding.

Therefore, her own wedding was actually a small regret for Aldan, so she was actually still looking forward to the wedding of herself and Kitano hosted by her grandmother.

"but……"

"Hmm?" Kitano hadn't expected that this should be Aldan's dream come true, but Aldan would actually have concerns. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Aldan, are you... worried about your health?"

"No, Trainer-san, as long as you are by my side, I don't worry about the future or anything else."

Ardan smiled and shook his head, dispelling Kitano's concerns. However, the next moment, Ardan's expression became even more helpless, and he looked at Kitano with a rather resentful look.

"What's wrong? Aldan? Why are you looking at me like that?" For some reason, Kitano felt inexplicably guilty. Ever since Kitano realized that he had only one way to go, which was to have a harem, he always felt guilty when facing the resentful eyes of his relatives who had memories of his past.

Because he always felt that most of these grievances that had not existed in the past were caused by his decision, but Kitano had no way to refute it, let alone change anything... Therefore, he had to endure the gazes of his superiors.

"But, I've considered, Trainer-san, that you probably can't handle this kind of thing right now, right?" Aldan also put away his resentful look and replied with a smile, "After all, you're not just my trainer-san, nor just my lover... You're a trainer for a team now, and you have all the responsibilities you need to take care of."

"If the news of our marriage spreads to everyone on the team, it will definitely cause some unrest, right? Recently, it just so happens that Di Wang and Shanxin's sister are making their debut competition. You definitely don't want everyone's mood to be affected by this matter, right?"

"Besides...there's Qingyun-san and Shengwang-san's classic triple crown. Isn't that what you're most concerned about, Trainer-san? If they knew about this, it would be very bad, right?"

Ardan thought a lot. When she first received the news, she felt a little bit unbelievable, but then she was extremely happy. At that moment, she seemed like the happiest woman in the world, as if she had received the blessings of the three goddesses.

However, after gradually calming down, Aldan still felt that something was a little wrong with the wedding.

Some people may ask why Aldan is thinking about the other horse girls. It is obvious that she has the most stable relationship with Kitano. It can even be said that she is the person that Kitano is most unable to give up. Among all the horse girls, her position is the least likely to be shaken.

Even the symbol of Rudo had to choose to temporarily avoid the edge when facing Aldan, and had to choose to compromise and "divide" Kitano with the Mejiro family. Logically speaking, she should not need to worry that anyone in the team will have problems because of her wedding.

But Ardan's answer to this is that it is precisely because she is the person closest to Kitano and the most inseparable existence in Kitano's heart that she has to handle all matters like a queen and take everyone into consideration.

Because these things are not only what she needs to worry about, but also what the people she loves are worried about. Wanting to help the people she loves solve their troubles, isn't that what Aldan should have always done?

Therefore, Aldan felt that marrying Kitano now was not a very reasonable option... She had to consider Kitano's feelings. Even if Kitano was happy to marry her, she should consider other people.

After all... in the future, maybe it will be time for them to marry their trainer Sang. If I can handle everyone's affairs now, then we can reciprocate... If I encounter any trouble in the future, I may have to rely on them to help me.

Ardan had a lot on her mind. She wanted to do her best to make everything the best it could be. However, at this moment, Ardan noticed Kitano's subtle expression and realized that something was amiss.

"What's wrong, Trainer-san?"

"Aldan, I'm really happy that you can think of so much."

"But... the current situation is that I think your plan may be shelved. The current situation is that it is almost impossible to take care of everyone."

Facing Aldan's somewhat puzzled gaze, Kitano sighed and said softly, "Aldan, half an hour ago, Rudolph also found me, and what she just talked to me about, even the agreed time, is exactly the same as you said."

"And Rudolph is laughing so happily. It seems like the two family heads didn't inform each other in advance about this matter. It's probably just some kind of tacit understanding between them, right?"

"But, the current situation is that both of the family heads have arranged a wedding for me, one for each of my two favorite girls, and I have to attend. Furthermore, it's impossible to hide this from everyone, because I have to attend no matter what."

"So, in this situation... Aldan, it's useless even if you're the only one who understands me."

"what?"

However, Kitano's words at this moment were so unexpected that even someone as resilient as Aldan could not have imagined that everything would be so coincidental.

For a moment, even Aldan felt that Kitano's statement was well-founded. Could it be that Grandmother really had not discussed it with the symbolic head of the family in advance, but just wanted to let Trainer-san make his own choice and see which side Trainer-san paid more attention to?

No, no, no... Putting aside the symbolic head of the family, grandmother definitely doesn't have such an idea... In other words, is it really just a coincidence?

Aldan was also a little confused, but she understood that the current situation was obviously not something she could understand or change on her own. Even if she could postpone her wedding with Kitano for a few more days, Rudo was obviously unwilling to wait any longer. She was extremely impatient in this regard.

So there are only two possible results that Aldan can achieve now. One is that she can persuade Rudo Symbol, and then let Rudo Symbol persuade her grandmother to postpone the wedding temporarily.

Of course, the possibility of this method is very low. First of all, Rudo is not the type to listen to Aldan's advice, and she has been waiting for this day for a long time.

Rudo's attitude towards problems is much tougher than Aldan's. She will not miss this good opportunity because of other things.

And if Aldan insists on his own way... that won't work either. The Mejiro family and the Yuzhi family are of the same size. They are both the largest horse racing girl families in Japan. She, Aldan, and Rudolph are both the next heirs to the family. Why is Rudolph first and she is behind?

Doesn't that mean the Mejiro family is inferior to the Yuzhi family? Doesn't that mean Aldan is inferior to Rudolph? Aldan still needs to consider this issue, especially since they will definitely take over the family business in the future. This issue is even more important.

Then... Aldan only has the second option...

"I see."

Ardan immediately understood how to handle this matter. The sadness on his face vanished in an instant, and a blush appeared on his pretty cheeks. He smiled softly at Kitano and said, "Leave this matter to me. Trainer-san, don't worry. I have a way to make everyone accept this result with peace of mind, and... it won't delay you."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Aldan?"

However, facing Aldan's mysterious smile, although Kitano didn't understand why, his trust in Aldan finally overwhelmed everything, and he confidently handed over the matter that he could not solve to Aldan.

But... for some reason, Kitano always felt that there was a bit of cunning in Aldan's smile, and the last time Aldan showed such a smile was last week when she pretended to faint to trick him into hugging her.

This is a precursor to Aldan's "lie", and this also makes Kitano feel a little uneasy.

Aldan...wouldn't hurt him, would he?

Chapter 383: Mejiro Zenshin's First Stop

After Aldan agreed to Kitano, this "wedding storm" was nothing but a flash in the pan. It didn't even cause any ripples within the team, as if no one knew anything about it.

Based on Kitano's understanding of Aldan, Aldan is definitely not the kind of person who would write a blank check, so Kitano is not too worried about the next problem. Aldan must have his own good way to tell everyone the news of his marriage in a relatively gentle way.

What Kitano needs to care about at the moment are only the debut matches of East China Sea Emperor and Mejiro Yoshinobu, as well as the classic triple crown journey of Qingyun Sky and Holy King Halo.

Now, a year has just passed and a new year has begun. There is still some time before the classic triple crown. What Kitano needs to be responsible for now is naturally the affairs of the two new horse girls who have been eager to make their debut.

"So, believer, are you ready this time?"

The new year has just passed, and now Kitano has already brought Mejiro Zenshin to the arena. The challenge Zenshin faces at this moment is just the debut competition. As long as he passes this level, Zenshin can become the victorious Uma Musume and officially start his Uma Musume journey.

However, Shanxin now seemed particularly nervous. She didn't look like a horse girl from Team Kitano, but rather like a new horse girl participating in her first competition.

All I can say is that if you put aside her surname "Mubai" and the fact that the person she usually trains with is the Emperor of the East China Sea, her current performance will definitely not attract anyone's attention.

Even Kitano, if he didn't have the advantage of being a time traveler and his past memories, would never take the now nervous Shanxin seriously. However, it's easy to imagine how much pressure this match put on Shanxin.

Kitano knew the reason for Shanxin's stress. Looking at the trembling Shanxin, he couldn't help but laugh, "It's just a debut as the emperor's daughter, Shanxin, you're way too nervous."

"Relax a little, Shanxin. This debut competition will be no problem for you. Don't let your nervousness cause you to lose a winnable match."

"But... can I really do it?" However, Kitano's comfort this time seemed to have little effect on Shanxin. Shanxin still had his ears drooping, and said with extreme anxiety, "Actually, I've been wanting to ask this for a long time... Trainer-kun, you arranged for me to debut in the same year as Di Wang, and we're going to run the Classic Year together - even if I really don't care much about competitions, the pressure Trainer-kun puts on me is too much!"

"And you made me debut after Emperor. Seriously, Trainer-kun is so mean. You clearly know Emperor's goal is to win the triple crown undefeated. There's absolutely no way she'll lose in her debut match. How can I not be stressed out like this?"

"Tian Wang's debut competition was a huge disappointment! I can't do that!"

Just two weeks before Shanxin's debut, East Sea Emperor, also under Kitano's guidance, had their long-awaited debut match. This debut match was a true feast for East Sea Emperor, who had undergone such a long period of special training under Kitano's guidance.

The big difference was what the East China Sea Emperor did in his debut show, as a child wanted to get enough attention. Of course, Kitano was not surprised that the emperor could do this.

Ever since Emperor Dong Hai joined Kitano's team, her sparring partner has been responsible for training her horse girls and lineup, and Kitano has discussed a training method with Good Opera, Aldan, and Rudo Symbol specifically for Emperor Dong Hai's situation. With all these resources added together, and Emperor Dong Hai herself being a talented technical horse girl, it would be strange if she couldn't achieve this level.

But, having said so much, the resources enjoyed by the Emperor of the East China Sea are actually not enjoyed by her alone. Even for Special Zhou and Shenying, who have just joined Kitano's team not long ago, Kitano has designed special training plans for them based on the situations of the two girls - isn't it the same for Shanxin?

Facing the lack of confidence in Shanxin at the moment, Kitano knew that this was because Shanxin had been in the team for some time, because of the excellent performances of Kusagami Fei and Sakura Jinwang, as well as the undefeated record of Xingjiang and Shengwang, and the huge difference of Emperor - so many factors combined together made Shanxin so unconfident.

"Why are all the people so good? Everyone's performance is so strong? What if I don't perform that well? Will I bring shame to the trainer? Will I bring shame to the team?" I'm afraid that the believers nowadays will probably think like this, right?

Shanxin's personality is very similar to Kitano's in the past, so Kitano can quite understand Shanxin's nervousness at the moment - if he were in such a strong group, and everyone in front of him performed very well, he would also feel nervous when it was his turn.

So, how can I relax myself? At this moment, Kitano had an idea in his mind. He put his hands on Shanxin's shoulders and said softly, "Shanxin, look at me, look at me."

"Shanxin, do you remember? You were the first horse girl to join my team. You were truly my first horse girl."

"You received my training earlier than anyone else in the current team. Therefore, if the emperor can do it, you can definitely do it too."

When she felt the warmth of Kitano's hands, the trembling Shanxin calmed down a little. However, when faced with Kitano's words, her thoughts couldn't help but drift away slightly. She said softly, "At that time... Trainer-kun only had me in charge, and he only taught me how to run."

"Uh... I'm sorry, Shanxin. I didn't know the team would be so big at the time, but that's not important."

When Kitano mentioned this, he sensed a slight shift in Shanxin's tone, and with an awkward expression, he quickly changed the subject. "Shanxin, do you know what this means? It means you're the oldest horse girl on our team. You've witnessed every horse girl join the team time and time again."

"Furthermore, this also means that you know every single horse girl on the team very well. You've even fought against each of them and know their ways. And you've also received all the training they've received."

"In other words, you are the true culmination of our team. You have received longer training and guidance than anyone else on the team."

"Your sparring partners are horse girls of the caliber of East Sea Emperor and Grasshopper, and your instructors are seniors like Good Opera, Ludo Symbol, and Mejiro Aldan. Similarly, I will also have to work with them to develop a satisfactory training plan for you."

"Shanxin, you are now stronger than you think. I can assure you of this."

"You, now, will definitely not lose to the Emperor of the East Sea. You are no longer the ugly duckling you once were. With so many resources and so much training, you have become a true white swan worthy of the name 'Mejiro'."

Kitano presented to Shanxin everything she had gained and changed during this period in the simplest way. Kitano was trying her best to convey a message to Shanxin - she was no longer the same as before.

Sure enough, under Kitano's "confidence and comfort method", Shanxin's originally slightly trembling body calmed down at a speed visible to the naked eye, and slowly, Shanxin's slightly pale cheeks gradually turned red, and he seemed a little embarrassed.

"Trainer-kun...don't praise me like that. You'll make me take it seriously, like I'm really amazing or something..."

"Shanxin, you're already quite formidable, you just haven't realized it yet." Seeing Shanxin calm down, Kitano smiled again and said, "That's why I arranged for you to debut after Emperor. I believe that if Emperor can pull off a big fight, your explosive escape tactics might be able to do the same."

"This time, it's not a very difficult race, is it? It's just 1600 meters on grass. It's much less than the usual training workload, isn't it?"

"Just treat your opponent this time as an emperor. Just like in normal training, give it your all and don't worry about the people behind you."

"Being like Classmate Diwang...it's really a bit of a headache." Shanxin touched his hair with a bit of embarrassment after hearing this. With a somewhat unsure smile on his face, he still said without refusing, "Although I haven't defeated Classmate Diwang for a long time...but, it's not necessary that every opponent is Classmate Diwang, right?"

"Well, I'm going to go, Trainer-kun. This is the time for my training acceptance, right? Stay tuned!"

"Well, I'm looking forward to it." Kitano nodded slightly, and facing the believer's suddenly open arms in front of him, Kitano did not hesitate. He bent down slightly and gave the believer a long-awaited hug.

Before Kitano could enjoy the hug any longer, he felt Shanxin's cheek slightly close to his ear, and whispered softly, "I'm also looking forward to something - our wedding, Trainer-san."

"Sister Aldan, she told me about your wedding with the president and Sister Aldan. I think our wedding shouldn't be too late."

After saying that, before Kitano could react, Shanxin ran away like the wind, even making people wonder if she had used the strength she would use to escape during the competition in advance.

It took Kitano a long while to understand what Shanxin meant. While he couldn't help laughing, he finally had an idea of ​​what Aldan had agreed to.

Sure enough, Aldan has already started to tell everyone the news. Aldan really has a way... I really can't imagine how she made everyone accept the news that he is getting married?

Chapter 384: One wedding, four horse girls?

"Mejiro Zenshin! Mejiro Zenshin is still maintaining her advantage in her escape! The gap between her and the horse girls behind her is widening! She has already reached the final straight! None of the horse girls behind her can keep up with her speed!"

"So fast! Mejiro Zenshin is in the lead! No one can catch him! The following horse racing girls start to burst out, but it's too late! No one can catch up with Mejiro Zenshin!"

"Crossing the finish line! Mejiro Zenshin! He successfully won the debut match with a huge margin! Mejiro Zenshin, who is on the same team as the East Sea Emperor, won his first victory with a performance that is no less impressive than the East Sea Emperor!"

"Let us congratulate Mejiro Yoshinobu on his first victory, and let us also congratulate the Mejiro family for having another promising horse girl. She will bear the Mejiro name, and along with her sisters, Mejiro Rynn and Mejiro McQueen, the three Mejiro sisters, known as the 'Hana no 62', have all become the most anticipated rising stars of the Mejiro family!"

As the older sister of two rising stars of the Mejiro family, Ryan Mejiro and McQueen Mejiro, Shanxin's debut was later than her two younger sisters. However, this time, Shanxin's performance was indeed more shocking than her two sisters' debut performances.

His debut was a huge success, and such achievements are rare even in Japan. However, such a debut competition made Mejiro Yoshinobu a future star from the moment he debuted, and he received more attention and popularity from fans.

Yes, she really is like the Emperor of the East China Sea. With her debut performance and the marketing effect of her surname "Meibai", Shanxin has become a rising star who is no less than the Emperor of the East China Sea.

Furthermore, the tactic of "explosive escape" is rare. The last horse girl to be famous for this was Taito Taiyoshin. And the one before that was Silent Suzuka.

The show effect of the explosive escape tactic is often maximized. Especially those represented by Silent Suzuka, who can achieve victory by explosive escape and are very easy to win by a large margin, are often unusually popular, and often have a popularity higher than their own strength.
