The mediocre trainer doesn't want to reopen

Qingyun Tiankong also laughed a few times in agreement, but she couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes at all, because her horse ears had drooped listlessly.

But Qingyun Tiankong wasn't concerned about the Saint King's aura right now. She forced herself to look at the East Sea Emperor beside her, and continued with a lazy smile, "It's just that, classmate Emperor is also in Trainer Kitano's team. Is he training with him?"

"Hehe, Your Majesty, I'm not just a sparring partner!" The Emperor, who had always been proud of his reserve position, said triumphantly to Qingyun Tiankong and Cao Shangfei, who had sensed something was wrong, "Your Majesty, I'm now a member of Trainer Jun's team. I joined just half an hour ago, and I definitely won't be left behind."

Boom! The emperor's words rang out like a thunderclap in Cao Shangfei's ears. She realized the seriousness of the situation and subconsciously looked up at the blue sky nervously.

However, Qingyun Tiankong was as expected shocked by the news at this moment. The expression on her face was frozen, as if she could fall directly into the water in this posture with just a slight push.

The sky is blue, but my enthusiasm is halved. I can’t adjust to this state at all.

Chapter 141: The most gentle person in the world towards Kitano

"call!"

"Sorry, it looks like I have a slight advantage this time."

At the other end of the swimming pool, Cao Shangfei, who had joined Kitano's team training, showed off his rather surprising swimming skills. In the next round, he successfully overtook the East China Sea Emperor and was the first to swim to the other side. He smiled modestly at the girls.

The second person to arrive was the East Sea Emperor. He poked his head out, and before he could even catch his breath, he said unconvincedly, "Ugh... If I hadn't swum so hard in the first round, Cao Shangfei probably wouldn't have been able to surpass me..."

"Really? Then let's make an appointment to compete together again tomorrow." Cao Shangfei also seized the opportunity to contact Kitano's team very timely. After all, contacting Kitano's team is equivalent to helping Qingyun Tiankong get closer to Kitano, and she can also receive training. Why not do it?

"Um... Qingyun-san, is it really okay?"

Mi Yu, who arrived late and swam to the finish line, swam the slowest but did not breathe hard. She pointed in a direction not far away with ease - there, there was a large swimming ring floating, and on the swimming ring, Qingyun Tiankong's blue hair was very conspicuous. She was lying on the swimming ring to rest.

"It seems that once we started training together, Qingyun suddenly became unmotivated." Saint King Halo was more frank when Kitano was not around. He asked Cao Shangfei curiously, "Is Qingyun okay? She doesn't seem to have any interest in training?"

"Maybe, it just so happens that Qingyun is in a bad mood today, so I just dragged her here by force."

However, Cao Shangfei, who was well aware of the whole story, responded gently after a moment of silence, "Don't worry. Although Qingyun looks a little lazy, she actually works very hard. It's just that her way of working hard is different from ours."

"Hehe, after all, she is a horse girl who surpassed the emperor just like Bourbon. I still know that she is very strong." The Emperor of the East China Sea was not worried about Qingyun Tiankong at all. She and Qingyun Tiankong had known each other for a long time. Naturally, she understood that her usual lazy appearance was just a disguise. In fact, she had been working hard silently behind the scenes.

How else could any random person be faster than the Emperor of the East Sea in the finals? The Emperor was well aware of the hard work and dedication of Miura Bourbon and Qingyun Tiankong, who had surpassed her. She had never looked down on them because of their mediocre bloodlines. To the Emperor, bloodline was no indicator of strength. The defeat in that final only reinforced this conviction.

"Speaking of which, if McQueen can't find a way to lose weight... I'm going to challenge Qingyun Tiankong. If I win, will that be considered washing away the shame?"

In fact, the Emperor is now planning to have another match with Qingyun Tiankong. If it is a one-on-one match, the Emperor cannot say that he can definitely beat Qingyun Tiankong. If he can beat her, perhaps the trainer will recognize her as a real member of the team!

However, the emperor's thoughts were not discovered by everyone. At this moment, Cao Shangfei looked at Qingyun Tiankong who was leisurely and contented not far away, and sighed slightly. She knew that Qingyun Tiankong's leisurely look actually showed that she had suffered a huge blow and was now in a "bad" state.

It is understandable that Fei on the Grass is joining Kitano, because the three girls who joined Kitano's team, whether it is Bourbon Miura, Zenshin Mejiro and Aura of the Holy King, all had outstanding performances in the finals. Miyu is Kitano's sister, so the joining of these four is not surprising.

But for Qingyun Tiankong, her performance in the final was not bad. Even though she was slowed down by Mejiro Zenshin who escaped at the beginning, she still maintained her leading advantage, only slightly behind Miura Bourbon, and even surpassed the East China Sea Emperor.

For Qingyun Tiankong, this was really her limit. After her, Mejiro Zenshin and Saint King Halo, who performed brilliantly, also lost to her. Instead, the two girls became members of Kitano's team that she had always wanted to join, but she could only wait and see because she had not submitted her resume.

The joining of the Emperor of the East China Sea was the last straw that broke her consciousness. Even though the Emperor of the East China Sea performed so poorly in the finals, she had already become a member of the Kitano team before herself - in fact, this was because Cao Shangfei helped her delay the Emperor for a day.

Although she was only a reserve, the emperor's progress was actually faster than her, who was always slow. However, due to her personality, she had no way to express this frankly, and she had no choice but to fall into a state of self-loathing, and she couldn't even say it when she felt wronged.

It is conceivable how much Qingyun Tiankong regrets in her heart now, but it is useless to regret. The emperor has now become a reserve, and her plan to slowly get closer to Kitano has been completely overturned.

What could she do? Just give up. Qingyun Tiankong immediately chose the easiest way to escape, not thinking about anything. This was actually the easiest way for her.

All of this was seen by Cao Shangfei. There was no doubt that even Cao Shangfei was extremely surprised by this change, which disrupted all her original ideas.

Then... there was only one way, to find an opportunity to tell Coach Kitano that Xing-chan wanted to join his team. Cao Shangfei made up his mind and planned to go to Kitano to make it clear after today's training.

……

On the other side of the pool, Kitano and Aldan were also sitting together. Aldan's gaze would occasionally turn to Qingyun Tiankong not far away, and he would say with a smile, "That junior named Qingyun Tiankong, Trainer Kitano, don't you have any idea of ​​making that child your horse girl?"

"Please spare me... I already have five horse girls on my team. My daily workload is too much. If I increase it any more, I'll be exhausted."

Kitano jokingly shook his head upon hearing this, then said softly, "Besides, I don't know if Qingyun Tiankong wants to join my team. It wouldn't be a good idea to invite him rashly. I already have so many horse girl trainers now. I don't need to keep chasing after one horse girl every day like I did at the beginning."

"Trainer Kitano, have you ever done such a thing?" Ardan blinked when she heard that. She didn't think Kitano was the kind of person who would pursue a horse girl relentlessly just to get her to be his mistress.

"You don't look like you'll be short of people to be horse girls."

"That's now... I didn't have such good luck before." Kitano shrugged. In all the past games, he had always begged and pleaded for a horse girl. Especially with a temper as strange as the Holy King's daughter, he had to express his thoughts to her tirelessly every day. It was so uncomfortable.

Qingyun Tiankong is the only horse girl Kitano has failed to recruit using this method, no matter which game he plays. Kitano has mentioned this before. He actually admires Qingyun Tiankong. She is not limited by mediocre bloodline and has won two of the classic three crowns. Kitano has also pursued her.

But no matter which round, Qingyun Tiankong's excuses are always "Ah, I already have a trainer, you're a little late", or "Sorry, Xing-chan, I don't have any plans to find a trainer yet."

Kitano could still hold on for one or two rounds, but it was like this every round. In the subsequent rounds, Kitano would just ask as if he was trying his luck, and after getting the same answer, he would immediately shift his target to other horse girls - one can't hang oneself on a tree, right?

In this round, he finally encountered Qingyun Tiankong without a trainer, but Qingyun Tiankong seemed to have no intention of joining his team so far. This made Kitano, who had always failed before, feel that Qingyun Tiankong this time was just like in the past and had no interest in joining his team.

As for asking, what's there to ask? You've heard it all so many times before, haven't you? Besides, I'm not short of being a horse girl this time. There are five of them, including the Emperor of the East Sea. I'm already worried about whether I have the energy to take care of so many horse girls. Add one more, and I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it all.

"But... to be honest, I still really hope Qingyun can be my role model." Kitano also sighed, looking at the Qingyun sky on the swimming ring not far away, and said lightly;

"I've always admired her, but unfortunately, I don't seem to be the kind of trainer she's been looking for."

"Is that so? Then I think Qingyun-san doesn't have good taste." Mejiro Aldan, standing beside him, smiled slightly and said, "If Trainer Kitano had shown up earlier, I might have invited you to be my trainer... Although our time together was brief, I think you're a very good trainer."

"Aldan-senpai's trainer?"

Kitano felt quite emotional when he heard this. Of course, he had done such things in the past.

But he failed to do it in the end and was about to give up, but he was stopped by Ardan, whom he was supposed to save. If it weren't for Ardan, he probably wouldn't have had the experience with Ardan later, let alone... become her "half-husband" recognized by everyone in the Mejiro family.

Thinking of this, Kitano couldn't help but stare at Aldant for a while, but Kitano's gaze made Aldant realize belatedly that there seemed to be something wrong with his previous remarks.

Was I... a little too relaxed with Trainer Kitano? Aldan's cheeks blushed slightly in hindsight. Although she was gentle, she wasn't someone who could be easily dismissed. However, when it came to Kitano, her words were always bolder than with ordinary people.

She even said that she hoped Kitano would be her trainer... If her grandmother heard it, she would probably be scolded again.

"Sorry, I'd like to stay longer, but I have to go back."

Ardan felt more and more embarrassed. Even though he wanted to stay a little longer, he stood up out of reserve and bowed slightly to Kitano.

"Well, are we going back now?"

"Yes... If I stay out for too long, my grandmother might be worried." Aldan answered Kitano gently, but then she felt a little unwilling in her heart, as if she... was reluctant to be separated from Kitano.

Driven by this inner feeling, Aldan pursed his lips and said softly to Kitano, "Trainer Kitano... please have a little more confidence. You are actually much more attractive than you think."

"Oh, sorry, I said something weird. I'll leave now."

Realizing belatedly that he had said something quite outrageous, Aldan fled with his cheeks completely flushed. Kitano was left alone for a long time before smiling at Aldan's back and saying, "Thank you, Aldan... In this world, perhaps you are the most gentle person to me."

Chapter 142: The impact of Aldan’s emotions and physical weakness?

"Da da da……"

“Uaaaaaaah—I’m so embarrassed! I’m so embarrassed! Why would I say such embarrassing things?!”

However, Aldan Mejiro, who had almost escaped from the swimming pool, ran almost non-stop for nearly four or five kilometers to hide her shyness before she stopped due to exhaustion. She herself didn't know where she had run to in Tresen College. She just wanted to get to a quiet and deserted place as quickly as possible.

She even seemed to have forgotten her own weakness. Her face flushed with shyness. This was probably the most rosy look in her life. However, when she came in front of a tree, she couldn't help covering her face with her hands. If she hadn't been concerned about her identity for the last bit of her sanity, she might have been as shy as Mi Yu. Cheng Li's defense said.

Aldan was obviously still feeling bad about the embarrassing words he said to Kitano before leaving, as he didn't know why he couldn't bear to be separated from her like this.

What does "more attractive than you think" mean?! This sentence will be misunderstood! Doesn't it sound like I'm trying to flirt with Trainer Kitano?!

"I'm so embarrassed..." Ardan's heart is beating so fast when she thinks about it now. She can even feel the "thump thump" of her heart, as if it is going to jump out of her chest.

But Aldan, who was too shy, did not notice the figure slowly approaching from behind him. It was a horse girl wearing a black suit and sunglasses. However, after the horse girl slowly approached, a strange expression appeared on her cold face.

"Miss?"

"Huh?!" Aldan was startled by the sudden sound. Her nerves, which had been in a state of high tension due to excessive shyness, caused her to have a stress reaction. Fortunately, the horse girl was obviously experienced. She stepped forward and supported Aldan, thus saving the young lady from the dangerous act of sitting down on the ground.

"Miss, please calm down. There is no one else here."

"Huh... yes, it's you."

Ardan gradually calmed down under the comfort of the horse girl and slowly stood firm. The horse girl behind him, whose whole body was black except for her skin and hair, was a member of the horse girl bodyguard group arranged for her by her grandmother. She had a close relationship with Ardan and was the only one in the bodyguard group who listened to Ardan's words completely.

Later, with Aldan's help, the horse girl successfully became Aldan's personal bodyguard, following him wherever he went. The Mejiro family head probably felt that having a group of bodyguards following Aldan around every day made Aldan feel a little uncomfortable.

However, Aldan heard that there was a royal racehorse girl from Ireland named "Wonderful Posture" who came to Tresen College recently. Her situation was very similar to Aldan's, but she had bodyguards not because of her weak constitution, but because of her identity as a member of the royal family, so it was reasonable for her to have so many bodyguards.

After regaining her composure, Aldan didn't immediately come to her senses. She looked at the horsewoman bodyguard beside her and asked, "It's been so many years. I'm ashamed to say I don't even know your name, Miss Bodyguard."

"I was ordered by the head of the family to protect the young lady. My name is irrelevant, and you don't need to know who I am, young lady." The bodyguard Ma Niang said calmly, "Young lady is so noble, and I am just a nobody. Don't worry about me, young lady."

"Noble, huh? But sometimes, I don't know if this nobility is linked to my body." Ardan shook his head upon hearing this and asked softly, "I feel... weird today, right, Miss Bodyguard?"

"Yes." The horse girl bodyguard nodded seriously upon hearing this and replied calmly, "The young lady's behavior towards that Kitano trainer was very unusual. Her performance today did not resemble the eldest lady of the Mejiro family at all - the head of the family would definitely say so."

"It's just as I expected." Aldan knew that his performance today was very bad, and he lowered his head slightly.

The bodyguard Ma Niang, watching her young lady's anxious expression and witnessing her unusual behavior, clearly had an answer in her mind. She asked without emotion, "Young lady, if you're interested in taking Trainer Kitano as your husband, you can ask the head of the family."

"Wh—isn't this too fast?!"

However, the horse girl bodyguard's words made Mejiro Aldan, who had just calmed down, blush again. It was the first time that the horse girl bodyguard saw the young lady with such a passionate look, and her reaction was more rejection than ever. She even had the illusion that "shyness can cure the young lady's illness."

"Miss, with all due respect, your first reaction was 'too fast', not rejection. I think you already have this thought in your heart." The bodyguard Ma Niang said in a calm tone.

"But, but he is Shanxin's sister's trainer. As her elder sister, it wouldn't be too much for me to do this..." Aldan retorted with a blushing face.

"My mission is to ensure the safety and happiness of the young lady. This is the order of the head of the family. If the young lady feels that the trainer is suitable to be your husband, just give the order and I will take care of the rest for you." The bodyguard Ma Niang remained neither humble nor arrogant.

"I, I, I... Humph, I won't talk to you anymore."

Being teased by his own bodyguard, Aldan felt a little embarrassed. He turned around and sulked, but he was unwilling to speak again.

Behind Aldan, the horsegirl bodyguard had already noticed his twitching ears and the slight color in his face. For the first time, a smile of relief appeared on her mechanically cold face, and she quickly followed Aldan's footsteps.

It’s been a long time since I saw the young lady looking so shy and happy... and so energetic. It feels like it’s been a long time since I last saw the young lady so lively.

In the mind of this horsegirl bodyguard, everything about herself is unimportant. She has given everything to Altan Mejiro. With just Altan's command, she can have Kitano appear in the basement of the Mejiro family the next day without anyone noticing. Then she can send out invitations, set up a banquet, and even perform horse jumping. She can do it all by herself. As long as the young lady can be happy, that's all.

She could even be asked to take charge of a series of tasks including delivery, post-natal care, and raising children. If that man dared to do anything to let the eldest lady down, she could even directly take charge of killing Kitano, as long as her eldest lady was willing.

But... that man does look a little familiar? The bodyguard thought to herself, feeling that she had seen Kitano Ryuichi somewhere before.

At the same time, Aldan's mind was in chaos because of her bodyguard's words, as if it had opened up some shocking ideas deep in her heart.

I have only met Trainer Kitano twice, and yet she said so many rude words at once... This is not something she would do at all.

Could it be that what the bodyguard said was true? She had already fallen in love with someone she had only met twice?

"No...I can't."

"Miss?" Faced with her own young lady's mumbling, the bodyguard Ma Niang asked with some confusion.

"I, I am the elder sister of the Mejiro family. I can't - take away the man my sister likes."

At this moment, Aldan Mubai also closed his eyes, forcing himself to suppress his restless heart. After a few deep breaths, Aldan's face visibly returned to its usual slightly sickly pale color, and he calmed down again.

Yes, this is the right thing for her as an older sister, Shanxin... She has a good impression of Trainer Kitano, and Trainer Kitano has also discovered Shanxin's talents. Just as her grandmother said, they are a match made in heaven.

As an older sister, I should bless them well, help my sister to conquer Trainer Kitano, and then present them with flowers at the wedding...

However, for some reason, when Aldan's mind appeared the scene of her sister and Kitano taking an oath in the marriage hall, she suddenly felt a pang of pain in her heart, and her sick body also reacted immediately.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Miss—please stop thinking about these things."

Sensing that his young lady's frail health was showing signs of recurring, the horse girl bodyguard immediately stepped forward to assist Aldan, and said with a somewhat anxious expression: "Young lady, think of something happy, it's a good start, and calm down a little."

What happened to the young lady... She was so happy and energetic just now, but now she looks even sicker than usual. What happened?

Could it be that... the young lady's mood was the reason for her drastic change in health? Could mood be a cure? The bodyguard thought to herself, and at this moment, she seemed to have discovered a way to save her young lady's ailing body.

Kitano Ryuichi... She remembered this name. She wanted to see if the young lady's illness was the same as she thought, and whether she could become happy by contacting that man, and thus be happy and restore her body to vitality.

If that's really the case... then no matter what, even if she has to tie that man up, she'll take him to the Mejiro family. No one can take away the young lady's only chance for redemption, no one!

It seems that I need to convince the young lady and Trainer Kitano to continue their contact. The horse girl bodyguard thought so in her heart, and she had already made plans to secretly add fuel to the fire.

Chapter 143: Flying on the Grass: Trying to Lead Teammates

Although it was the first time for Kitano to lead so many horse girls, he was also very clear that the most important thing for a team was harmonious relationships. Kitano felt that how to cultivate harmonious relationships between these five horse girls was not too difficult.

First of all, according to the anime, Miura Bourbon and Miyu, these two horse girls can become good friends and rivals, and neither of them is a horse girl who stirs up trouble, so Kitano is not worried about their relationship.

Shanxin and the Emperor of the East China Sea are not characters that require people to worry about in terms of their personalities. Although the Emperor is a little arrogant in the anime and can't even remember the names of his two children, he is not the kind of person who will make people angry.

The only slightly troublesome thing was the Holy King Halo, which might require a little tolerance and understanding. Therefore, Kitano specifically arranged for everyone in the team to have a good time playing in the swimming pool after training to improve their relationship.

Playing around is the best way to enhance friendship. Kitano, who had been watching, naturally believed this. After the training, the first one who couldn't stand the loneliness was the Emperor of the East China Sea. He took the initiative to attack everyone. Afterwards, several horse girls immediately attacked each other in the swimming pool by splashing water and hurting each other.
