I, the horse racing girl, really didn’t sprint!

But she realized in an instant that the wheelchair had been replaced with an electric wheelchair brought by Minamisaka, and she no longer needed her help to push it.

"Then let's go in too."

"Ah."

Barbatos controlled the electric wheelchair and walked in with Nebula Sky.

Grandpa said that Xingyun Tiankong had lost weight, which made Barbatos realize that because they were together day and night, she didn't notice that Xingyun Tiankong, who was not fat to begin with, seemed to be thinner than when they first met at the beginning of the school year.

This should be caused by the practice before the Dream Cup.

Before the Dream Cup, Xingyun Tiankong had been practicing with himself and never stopped.

This was inconsistent with Xingyun Tiankong's previous habit of slacking off, and it was probably the practice at that time that made her thinner.

However, he let Nebula Sky's sparring partner go to waste and suffered a crushing defeat in the Dream Cup.

The emotions in my heart are surging. Even if I face failure again and again, the emotions after failure will be triggered by certain things and surge out again in my heart, making me feel frustrated.

The expression on his face was a little ugly because of his emotions. Barbatos adjusted his facial expression, not letting the emotions in his heart show up, which would affect Xingyun Tiankong's mood of going home for the New Year.

The crushing defeat in the Dream Cup was just yesterday. Barbatos does not have the mental strength to recover from the defeat so quickly.

Entering the entrance hall, Barbatos walked forward under the guidance of the nebula sky.

At the same time, pay attention to the surrounding environment.

Even though this is essentially an abandoned ranch, one part of it has a strong atmosphere of life, and on the other side you can vaguely see a simple racetrack. The track is not very long and now looks like it has been there for quite a while.

Without the conditions like those at Tresen Academy and without a steamroller to compact the road, the track has become a bit bumpy.

"There is?"

Barbatos looked over there with some confusion.

This world doesn't have horses like in the previous life, there are only racehorse girls. So if this was once an abandoned ranch, there shouldn't be anything like a racetrack here.

"My grandfather made that for me when I was a kid."

Xingyun Tiankong recalled her childhood. If Barbatos had not been injured this time, could he have run and practiced with her on the track made by his grandfather?

"Grandpa is so nice."

"That's the best grandpa in the world."

While chatting, Xingyun Tiankong stopped and opened the door of a room.

The rooms here are different from those in Tressen Academy. Since it is their own house, the style is similar to that of Doraemon's house.

Neat bedding was spread on the ground, obviously prepared in advance. The decoration in the room was very simple, and some places were hung with star-like patterns, which made Barbatos know that this was the room with the nebula sky.

"We'll sleep here tonight." Xingyun Tiankong said with a smile.

"us?!"

……

kitchen.

Grandpa killed the fish with gritted teeth, and two lines of tears appeared under his sunglasses. Every time he killed a fish, he would say "Barbatos" fiercely.

How could he not know who Barbatos was.

He followed all the matches of his granddaughter's team, Canopus. They all seemed to be very easygoing horse girls.

Only Barbatos!

After the Tokyo Sports Cup, he hugged his granddaughter and the camera captured it!

Now Barbatos has been brought back by Xiaoxing to celebrate the New Year.

"Damn it!"

Chapter 192: Girls are Extroverts

"Damn you, Master Lu Yi Qi, ah."

"I feel like this guy Barbatos has taken my lovely granddaughter away from me."

Grandpa repeated these words in his heart while cooking fish soup. Originally, when Xiaoxing came back this time, he could have spent a good New Year's Day with Xiaoxing as the two of them.

Results, results!

This guy Barbatos actually came here shamelessly with a leg injury.

Directly diverted all of Xiaoxing's attention to her.

He is not an old-fashioned person. It is normal for his granddaughter to fall in love while she is in school, but at least, he should wait a few years before bringing Barbatos back!

As a result, it was brought back now.

How long have you known each other? It’s not even half a year and you dare to bring her home!

He actually wanted to see me, the parent, and took my granddaughter for himself!

Xiaoxing cares about his roommates, teammates, and people he likes. There is absolutely no problem in bringing Barbatos home to take care of him and spend the New Year together.

The problem is Barbatos!

Why can running a race cause problems for your legs?

Whether Barbatos wins the Dream Cup or not has nothing to do with him, but the problem is that Xiaoxing will be sad if Barbatos loses the game, especially now that his leg is injured, Xiaoxing will have to worry and need care.

Barbatos is nothing!

After the Dream Cup ended, I learned that Barbatos had a leg injury.

As the wise Nebula Sky's grandfather, he naturally guessed the possibility that Barbatos would be pulled back.

He had a pretty good guess about what his granddaughter was thinking, but he still felt angry after seeing Barbatos.

Grandpa snorted coldly and divided the fish soup that had been cooking for a while.

Added some extra bits and pieces to one of them.

Because we predicted that Barbatos might come, we made preparations this morning and we must let that guy Barbatos know how powerful we are.

Not only did he go winter fishing this morning, he also asked his friends to help buy some medicinal herbs that could help recover from his leg injury, which he could put in the fish soup so that Barbatos could drink it without anyone noticing.

As long as she recovers sooner, Xiaoxing will be able to take his attention off her sooner.

I can interact more with my grandfather.

Of course, even if such herbs were added, he was not a miracle doctor and it was impossible for Barbatos to recover instantly. At most, if they were effective, he would be able to recover a day or two earlier.

Even if he had recovered a few days earlier, Xiaoxing would have returned to school with Barbatos.

It can only give myself some psychological comfort.

At least it would allow Nebula Sky to worry less about Barbatos for a few days.

……

"Fish soup is here!"

"Xiaoxing, come and try my cooking skills and see if they have improved."

Soon it was lunchtime, and I watched Grandpa interact amiably with the nebulous sky.

Barbatos glanced at the bowl in front of him again. It was obvious that there was something else in the fish soup. Combined with the previous sentence, the subsequent dialogue of the famous scene automatically emerged in his mind.

Of course, she didn't really think that her bowl of fish soup was poisonous.

You can also guess what's inside.

Although she was not a medical student in her previous life, to the Japanese, she, as a Chinese in her previous life, could still smell the scent of Chinese medicine at once.

There should be some kind of Chinese medicine added in it, so the color of the fish soup will be essentially different from the color of the fish soup in the nebula sky, and even the taste will smell different.

Although I don’t know what the effect will be, I can roughly guess it when I think of what Xingyun Tiankong said to me on the Nanban business car before coming here.

It should be that grandpa put some Chinese medicinal herbs that would help his leg injury heal so that he could recover soon.

Even though on the surface he didn't seem to express his attitude towards me, which was very different from normal parents, he was indeed a very good grandfather who took good care of me, his "roommate" in the nebula sky.

"I'm gonna start now."

The three of them gathered around the table and said with their hands clasped together.

Xingyun Tiankong also noticed the problem with the Barbatos fish soup. As a horse girl born and raised in Japan, she didn't know much about Chinese medicine, but she could still guess her grandfather's good intentions.

But what she guessed was several levels more complicated than Barbatos's.

"Xiao Xing, are you planning on participating in the Classic Triple Crown next, Chen Lin? II Two One Umbrella Strike Emu~?"

"Ah."

"I've already made an appointment with Senior Little Bay, and Mr. Trainer has already arranged a classic class event for early registration."

While eating lunch, Xingyun Tiankong chatted with his grandfather.

Barbatos had no way to butt in on the topic, nor did he have any intention of joining in. Although this seemed a bit awkward, it was better than interrupting and upsetting his grandfather.

After the meal, Xingyun Tiankong talked a lot with his grandfather.

We talked about the competition, teammates, interesting things that happened at school, relay races and strange stories in the school.

Barbatos listened quietly, looking well-behaved.

But I didn't hear them talk about the New Year's visit to the shrine tonight until after dinner. Is this no longer a topic that needs to be discussed?

After visiting Shinshoji Temple, she and Xingyun Tiankong came back and slept in the same room.

Although she and Xingyun Tiankong shared the same dormitory in the academy, and they would also stay in the same hotel room when they went out to compete, but for some reason she felt a little strange this time.

Maybe it’s because I’m in my own home under the nebula sky?

Is there really a plot in a novel where a man goes home with his girlfriend for the New Year, and his father-in-law doesn't like his daughter's boyfriend who stole his daughter's cabbage, and then when he stays overnight, his daughter's boyfriend even sleeps with his daughter?

Although grandpa is not the father-in-law, but the father-in-law's father, there is actually not much difference.

Also...why doesn't Grandpa even take off his sunglasses when he's eating?!

This is not an anime, and the original setting is not to have those sunglasses.

She hadn't figured this out until Barbatos finished his meal and returned to his room.

Xingyun Tiankong was still outside helping his grandfather clean up the dishes.

The water in the kitchen was flowing, and the dishes were washed clean by Xingyun Tiankong and handed to grandpa to dry.

When the sound of running water died down, Xingyun Tiankong clasped his hands together and said, "I'm sorry, Grandpa. I can't join you on this pilgrimage."

"You are an adult now, just make your own decisions."

There was a hint of grievance in Grandpa's kind voice, and his eyes were faintly red under his sunglasses. The moment he finished his meal, I guessed that he would be alone this year.

During the meal, my granddaughter did not mention the New Year's visit to the shrine, which means that she did not plan to bring her with her when she went to the shrine this year.

The girl is so extroverted that she doesn't even want her grandfather.

Chapter 193 A beautiful girl once in a thousand years

Barbatos sat in a wheelchair, operating a laptop on his lap.

Coming to Xingyun Tiankong's house to celebrate the New Year was a sudden proposal. She naturally brought her laptop with her, but she didn't bring a change of clothes.

After all, she needed to return to Kochi, her own home, where there would naturally be some spare clothes.

Fortunately, her figure is not much different from Xingyun Tiankong's, so she can wear Xingyun Tiankong's clothes.

On the laptop screen placed on his legs, a replay of the Dream Cup match was playing, repeating the process of the match in slow motion over and over again.

I want to see from the video of the competition what areas I still need to improve.

Where to make changes, whether there are mistakes in decision-making, compared to the legendary horse girl, she is still too immature.

When you fail for the first time in your life, you always need to make some summaries so that you can improve your competition experience.

Even if you feel disappointed after losing the game, you still have to make a summary and conclusion to take yourself to the next level.

Personal strength, experience, and mental strength are all indispensable parts of the competition.

At the same time, in the intervals between watching the game, he responded to New Year's greetings from Chinese fans and Japanese friends on LINE and QQ, and offered comfort after the crushing defeat.

Compared to their Japanese friends, most of the live broadcast fans in China are engaging in comforting private chats.

For Chinese fans, the Chinese New Year and the Japanese New Year are not at the same time. For them, it is still the time approaching the New Year.
