How can I be a trainer when my girlfriend is so cute?

"Bao Canteen, here I come!"

Under the warm morning sun, the rectangular outline of Jinhui Town appeared in the two people's field of vision. Looking at the town in front of them with a golden outline painted by the morning sun, Qi Shu, sitting on the back of the tropical dragon, couldn't help but raise his arms and cheered.

The early morning sunlight shines softly, covering this peaceful land with a layer of golden gauze. At around eight or nine o'clock, the air is still filled with the faint scent of morning dew, mixed with the fragrance of grass and wild flowers, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.

The mountains in the distance were clearly outlined in the morning sun, as if covered with a golden coat. At the foot of the mountain, a green forest stood quietly, and the leaves swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound. Occasionally, a naughty Pokémon jumped out of the woods, curiously looking at this beautiful world.

Jinhui Town is an ordinary town located in the central part of Padia region. It is famous for its intricate roads and various restaurants on both sides of the roads. For those who love food, this seemingly ordinary town is the paradise in their dreams.

In the early morning, the sun shines through the mist and gently shines on this town famous for its food culture. The town seems to have just woken up, with a sense of tranquility and freshness.

The buildings on both sides of the street are simple and elegant, and the road surface paved with bluestone slabs looks clean and tidy. The trees on both sides of the street are lush and green, adding a bit of greenery to the town. Occasionally, a breeze blows, and the leaves sway gently, as if telling the story of the town.

The restaurants and food stalls on both sides of the street have started to get busy, with smoke rising and aromas everywhere. The shop owners greeted people warmly and began to prepare food for the new day. The fresh ingredients looked particularly tempting in the morning light, making people look forward to the delicious food that was about to be presented.

The residents of the town are hospitable, they love food and are good at cooking. Whenever there are guests visiting, they always warmly invite them to taste their specialties. In the town, whether it is a high-end restaurant or a roadside snack stand, you can taste authentic food.

Look, not long after landing, Qishu’s hands were already full of various snacks, each of which exuded an enticing aroma.

She carefully held a steaming bun with a thin skin and a full filling. Through the thin skin, you could see the fresh filling inside, which made people want to taste it. In her other hand, she held a string of tempting candied haws. The crystal sugar coating sparkled in the sun, and the sweet and sour taste seemed to have filled the air.

In addition, Qishu also brought a few pieces of crispy pastries, which were delicate in appearance. When you take a bite, the crispy crust and soft filling blend in your mouth, which makes people have endless aftertaste. In her other hand, there is a cup of brightly colored juice, which seems to be freshly bought from a juice stand, fresh and sweet.

The girl's face was filled with a satisfied and happy smile. She sometimes lowered her head to take a bite of the food in her hand, and sometimes looked up to appreciate the beautiful scenery of the town. Her steps were light and cheerful, as if the whole town had become more lively and interesting because of her arrival.

It looked like just a short street, but when the two of them walked from one end to the other, their stomachs became full. The bag in Fang Ci's hand was also filled with wrappers of various snacks, which were colorful and beautiful under the sunlight.

"Brother, look, my belly is bloated!" Qishu, who was walking in front, turned around and patted his round belly in a childish manner.

"Haha, then do you want to compete with Snorlax?" Fang Ci couldn't help but laugh when seeing this. Belly drum is Snorlax's signature move.

"Then let Snorlax out!" Qishu patted her belly again without fear. She looked like she was really using a move.

"Forget it, the streets here are too narrow." Looking at the narrow streets on both sides, Fang Ci shook his head. If Snorlax was released on such a narrow street, then no one else would have to cross it.

"Okay." Qishu was not disappointed. After all, she would not be so stupid as to compete with Snorlax on the street to see who could pat their belly louder. She could be more free and easy in front of Fang Ci, but in front of other people, she still had to maintain her image as the number one anchor of Padia.

"Mr. Aoki's gym should be two blocks away from here. It looks like we'll be there soon." Fang Ci said excitedly after looking at the sign on the side of the road.

"Ah, why is my stomach so small!" Hearing that there were still two streets to go and his stomach had already been full when he passed the last street, Qishu couldn't help but feel regretful for missing the delicious food in the other two streets.

"It's okay, we can come back for lunch. At worst, we can stay here for a few more days after visiting Mr. Aoki."

"Great!" Upon hearing that he could stay here for a few more days, Qishu immediately cheered excitedly.

"But you have to be careful not to eat too much, otherwise you'll be too fat for the audience to recognize you when the next show starts." Fang Ci couldn't help but tease Qi Shu when he saw that he was a real foodie.

"Hehe, I'm the type of person who can never gain weight no matter how much I eat!" Hearing Fang Ci say this, Qi Shu raised his little chin proudly.

Indeed, after being together for so long, Fang Ci has never seen Qi Shu actively control her diet. She always eats whatever is available, and sometimes she even eats more than he does. But even so, she still doesn't have a trace of excess fat on her body. Fang Ci can be said to have a deep understanding of this point.

Although the smells from the various restaurants along the street were like demons beckoning and tempting them all the time, the two men who had eaten their fill and entered the sage state were not afraid of any temptation at this time. In just over ten minutes, they crossed two streets and arrived at the door of Jinhui Gym.

"You two must be Mr. Fang Ci and Ms. Qi Shu, right? I'm really sorry that Gym Master Qing Mu is not in the gym right now, but before he left, he told you that if you come, you can go directly to the Bao Restaurant in the north of the town to find him!"

After they entered the gym and introduced themselves, the lady at the front desk immediately smiled at them politely.

"OK, thanks!"

After thanking the lady at the front desk, the two walked out of the gym building side by side.

"Sure enough, the rumor that Mr. Aoki likes to fight in the arena of Bao Restaurant is true!" After hearing the words of the front desk lady, Qi Shu immediately remembered a rumor he had heard before.

Although there are arenas in all gyms, the gym leaders of Padiya seem to like to accept challenges in arenas outside. For example, Aoki likes to fight in Bao Restaurant, Feng likes to fight in Olive Garden, and even the most familiar Qishu and his daughter have most of their gym battles in the circular plaza in the center of Niaoguang City.

When the two arrived at the legendary Bao Canteen, the highest restaurant in Padia, as soon as they walked into the canteen door, they saw Aoki fighting a gym battle with a green-haired boy in the middle of a large private room.

An invisible barrier separates the arena and the cafeteria, so that the fighting inside will not affect the normal meals of the surrounding diners. They can enjoy the world-famous food of Bao Cafeteria while watching the battle between Aoki and the challenger.

"You two, welcome to the Treasure Cafeteria!"

As soon as the two entered the door, a waiter wearing an apron immediately came up to greet them warmly.

"Well, we're here to see Mr. Aoki." Seeing the enthusiastic waiter, Fang Ci said somewhat awkwardly. Although he also wanted to taste the food in Bao Canteen, he really couldn't eat any of it now.

"Oh, you two must be Mr. Fang Ci and Miss Qishu, please follow me!" Qingmu had obviously explained something to the people in Bao Canteen before. After taking a closer look at the two people's faces, the waiter immediately showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, and took them to a table right at the edge of the arena with the same enthusiasm. Sitting here, they could just take in the battle in the arena below.

After seeing the two people kneeling on the mat, the waiter who had just led the way smiled and said goodbye. After a while, he brought two cups of hot tea and placed them on the table in front of them.

"Thank you!"

The two nodded to the waiter in thanks, and only turned their attention to the arena below after the other party left again.

"Flying Mantis, use continuous slash!"

At this time, the battle on the field had entered a white-hot stage. The green-haired boy commanded Scyther to wave the double scythes that flashed with dazzling cold light and rushed towards the Mk'Kaw in the air.

"That's a passionate attack, but I'm sorry, your fighting style is still too immature. If I let you take the badge like this, I won't be able to report to my superiors. M'K-Hawk, use Swallow Return."

Facing the fierce attack of the green-haired boy, Aoki still looked weak, but after hearing his voice, Mk's eyes suddenly focused, and he easily turned around to avoid the attack of Scyther and then turned around and hit Scyther heavily with his wings.

"Spy Mantis has lost its ability to fight, so the winner of this battle is Gym Master Aoki."

Looking at the green-haired boy who was leaving in a daze holding Scyther, Fang Ci was about to stand up and say hello to Aoki who was left alone on the field, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, a girl with a ponytail took the green-haired boy's place and came to the arena.

Obviously, the girl with ponytail is the next challenger.

"Hello, I'm Aoki, the Gym Leader assigned to the Kinhui Gym."

After hearing Qing Mu's unique self-introduction, the ponytailed girl opposite was stunned for a moment, and it took her a long time to react and hurriedly said: "Hello... Hello, I'm Lingzi from the Ice Box Town."

"Hello, just let me go moderately for the sake of digestion after the meal..."

Aoki still looked weak and exhausted, but the action of throwing the Poké Ball did not stop at all.

"In order to avoid being scolded by the boss, Tree-Pillow Tailed Bear, let's just have a plain fight."

Seeing Aoki sending out the Tree-Pillow-Tailed Bear that seemed to be asleep, the ponytailed girl named Suzuko also became serious and did not dare to delay and immediately sent out her first Pokémon.

"Come on, Wrestler Eagle!"

It was obvious that the girl had done her homework before coming here. Facing Aoki, who was good at general types, she sent out fighting-type Pokémon from the beginning.

Although Qingmu looked like he had no strength at all, he was extremely calm during the fight. The fight between the two was very exciting. Fang Ci and Qishu watched it with great interest and unknowingly drank up the pot of hot tea that the waiter had just brought over.

Although Fang Ci and Qi Shu thought that the ponytail girl Suzuko's fighting still had many immature aspects, judging from her current performance, she should have no problem passing ordinary gym challenges. Obviously, Aoki also understood this, so in the end, with the ponytail girl's Infernape's final survival, Aoki's final Mook-O was ultimately defeated.

After the girl who received the badge left with joy, the next challenger quickly took over.

"Mr. Aoki is really working hard!" Fang Ci sighed sincerely as he watched Aoki fighting one challenger after another without any pause.

"Because Mr. Aoki is not only a gym leader, but also one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the League, there are many trainers who are not qualified to challenge the Four Heavenly Kings and come here specifically to challenge Mr. Aoki. They want to see how strong he is." Qi Shu, who is also a gym leader, knows why there are so many challengers to Aoki.

"But those trainers who want to see the strength of the Supreme are doomed to be disappointed, because Mr. Aoki always only uses the strength of an average gym leader when facing gym challengers. In his words, as an average gym leader, his strength must be average among gym leaders. However, there are also many people who come to challenge gyms just to brag to others in the future that they have defeated the Supreme."

"I remember that when Mr. Aoki was the king, he used a flying-type Pokémon, right?"

"Yeah!" When talking about this, Qi Shu couldn't help laughing. "I heard that the upper echelons of the alliance asked him to use different attributes when he was the king than when he was in the gym. Rumor has it that every time someone challenges the king, Mr. Aoki will complain to the other party and tell them to go directly to the chief if they have any opinions~"

"Haha!" Fang Ci couldn't help but smile when he heard Qi Shu's words.

"Since you are both the Gym Leader and the Four Heavenly Kings, and you have to train two teams with different attributes, it's normal for Mr. Aoki to have some opinions."

"That's not right~" Qi Shu shook his head slightly after hearing Fang Ci's words.

"What's wrong?" Fang Ci asked doubtfully. Fang Ci didn't know as much about the situation within the alliance as Qi Shu.

"Mr. Aoki has more than two jobs in the league. In addition to being a gym leader and a Pokémon King, Mr. Aoki's main job is a clerk in the Pokémon League's sales department. In addition, because Jinhui Town is the closest town to the entrance to Area Zero, Mr. Aoki also serves as the gatekeeper of Area Zero!"

After hearing what Qi Shu said, Fang Ci couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise.

"No wonder Aunt Xiaohe also complained that President Yeci was a ruthless 'capitalist'. Even if Mr. Aoki is very capable, he shouldn't use his abilities like this!"

After hearing Qishu's words, Qingmu's originally thin image instantly became tall and majestic in Fang Ci's mind.
