Why was I assigned to be a horse girl?

Qin Chuitou moved her lips slightly: "You just called me 'sister,' isn't that nice? Why don't you just call me that like I do?"

"But it's different, isn't it? I'm close to your older sister... but not to your father..."

It could even be described as hostility!

So, Fei Tu Hu Po put on a flawless smile and replied, "Hello, Uncle."

"Pfft..." Shinichi Kotobuki was a little embarrassed. After all, he had just heard his daughter say that Hitoko was willing to call her "older sister". He figured he could at least get Hitoko to call him "Dad" or "old man" or something.

"Why is it still Uncle..."

"It's their first time here, they're bound to be a little nervous. What else do you expect them to call you? Boss Kotobuki?"

At this moment, the beautiful woman sitting in the chair stood up and walked gracefully towards Fei Tu Hu Po: "Little Hu Po, you are much prettier than you are on TV... I never thought that Tou Tou would have such good luck, it's really great."

The beautiful woman's smile was gentle and inexplicably radiated a genuine sense of acceptance, even causing Fei Tu Hu Po to unconsciously start having wild thoughts—

No wonder that despite having an unreliable father like Shinichi Kotobuki, Toru Kotobuki and Kotobuki... didn't grow up to be spoiled brats who treat emotions like dirt. Instead, they are all genuinely good people. It turns out it's because they also have such a wonderful mother!

envy!

Kotobuki Toru's tone was also filled with pride as she pulled Hitoko Amber's little hand toward her mother: "Amber, this is my mom. She's the strongest support in the Kotobuki family, and the most reliable person in our family is probably her."

"Ha, TouTou, you say that, but you haven't been home for years..."

"Mom, isn't that building a career?"

"Hmph, you've brought back a horse girl, so you've certainly accumulated some 'family fortune.' I won't say anything more about you this time..."

Kotobuki Toru's description of his mother was exactly the same as Hitoko Amber's guess, and Hitoko Amber, listening to the mother and son's almost daily bickering, actually saw the atmosphere of a family in it.

If I could have a family, and live a harmonious life like this, that would be wonderful...

As Fei Tu Hu Po pondered this, she became somewhat distracted, forgetting that she hadn't yet greeted this elder.

Then, Hitotsu Kohaku watched everyone's interaction with a look of envy on her face, until Kotobuki Toru realized that Hitotsu Kohaku had been spacing out there, so she reached out and tugged at Hitotsu Kohaku's sleeve again, reminding her, "Kohaku... my mom just said hello to you."

"Ah, oh!" Fei Tu Hu Po seemed to wake from a dream, blinked, and quickly organized her thoughts based on the information Qin Chui Tou had just provided: "Mom, hello... my name is Fei Tu Hu Po..."

"Wow, this kid really knows how to handle things."

Chapter 429 Mrs. Kotobuki's Teachings

"Oh my, this child really knows how to handle things!"

Mrs. Kotobuki smiled, her hands supporting her chin, revealing fine lines at the corners of her eyes, radiating a joyful glow. Her smile deepened especially when she recalled Hitokohaku's sweet, soft "Sister," followed by her crisp "Mom," yet she blurted out "Uncle" to Kotobuki Shinichi without a second thought.

Her gaze swept over her husband, whose face was filled with embarrassment and whose eyes gleamed with envy and jealousy. Mrs. Kotobuki deliberately dragged out her teasing tone, "Today the four of us are gathered together—but it seems one gentleman is being treated like an outsider? Who is it?"

Shinichi Kotobuki coughed twice in an attempt to smooth things over: "I think it's because Kohaku and I lack understanding of each other, and my self-introduction was inadequate... But we can continue to get to know each other at the dinner table later."

Hitoko, who was influenced by Kotobuki Toru's way of addressing her, quickly realized that her behavior of showing favoritism and being too familiar seemed a bit inappropriate. Calling her "Mom" on the first meeting was too bold!

Could it be because I've never called anyone "Mom" before, so I'm not sensitive to this term of address?

Thinking of this, Fei Tu Hu Po quickly patted her unsteady little mouth and said again, "Ah, no... I shouldn't call her Mom, I should call her, call her Sister?"

“Calling me ‘older sister’ is fine too.” Mrs. Kotobuki finally couldn’t resist and quickly walked to Hitoko’s side, warmly taking Hitoko’s little hand and kneading it like dough: “You can call me whatever you want, except for ‘auntie’, of course. Come, come, come in and sit down.”

"Oh, oh..." Hibiki Amber nodded obediently, letting Mrs. Kotobuki rub her paws and lead her into the hall. After a brief internal struggle, she quickly convinced herself—since she had never met her biological mother, calling her "Mom" after Tou Tou didn't seem so bad, did it? Besides, the lady in front of her had a smile with her eyes crinkling at the corners, and her palms still smelled warm and sweet like laundry detergent...

On her way to the living room, Mrs. Kotobuki didn't forget to ask about Hitoko Amber, looking as if they had known each other for a long time: "Little Amber is so beautiful. I've seen all kinds of big stars, but none of them seem to be as exquisite and beautiful as you. Haven't any boys pursued you before?"

"No...no." The girl's cheeks flushed slightly. "I used to live alone. I would either train alone or work alone. I was very withdrawn, so I didn't have many opportunities to interact with the opposite sex."

"Oh~ that's not bad either. It's not a bad thing that young people have small social circles. So, Little Amber, how old are you?"

"I'm currently studying at Uma Musume High School, but thanks to Toto's recommendation and connections, Hokkaido University has sent me a special admission invitation. Once I retire from racing, I should be able to enroll."

"It's good that you've improved your education level. You can still call yourself TouTou's junior or something..." Mrs. Kotobuki nodded, then suddenly changed the subject, "But I'm not asking about your age. How's your figure, Kohaku?"

"Uh." Hitoko Amber was startled, not expecting that Mrs. Kotobuki really didn't treat her like an outsider. "A 90 bust... about 34D, I guess..."

"Wow~ Great! I heard that you and TouTou have been living together for a while now. What do you do at night? Do you ever get intimate or anything?"

Of course there is affection—they rub noses together and kiss at least twice a day. Even when they're not being affectionate, they'll wrap their tails around Qin Chui's arm.

But how could she tell the truth to her elders? Fei Tu Hu Po maintained a polite smile, her tone light as if reciting a text: "No, we study and communicate in the evenings. Most of the time, I exercise and Tou Tou studies diligently. We don't disturb each other and each shines in our own way."

Kotobuki Toru, who was walking behind and being "interrogated" by his father, almost spat out his drink when he heard this. Hisako was acting just like a friend who goes to someone else's house and behaves very well in front of the friend's parents.

Whenever her parents ask, she'll say that she usually goes to bed early and gets up early, never plays on her phone or watches TV, and that her biggest hobby is doing math problems. When she needs to relax, she does English reading... But actually, she's the one who plays the most in private, doing all sorts of things, and it's thanks to her that everyone broadens their horizons!

He himself didn't do any random things at night, just focused on work and study, and arranged training plans for Fei Tu Hu Po.

And even though she had already gone through so much, Scarlet Amber still kept interfering with her, trying to make her bewitched by Slaanesh.

To put it simply, she would hug him from behind and rub his ear with the downy hairs on the tips of her ears. If she went a little more extreme, she would stick out her tongue and attack his ear like those live streamers on platforms that claim to focus on sleep and companionship but end up making people unable to sleep.

Of course, when Hitotsu Kohaku is completely high, she might choose to use both hands and feet... This falls into the category of things you can't just think about, otherwise it could easily lead to the death of your social relationships.

Of course, Mrs. Kotobuki didn't know what Hitoko was like in private. She just nodded slightly and said, "It's good for everyone to give each other space. But sometimes, girls have to take the initiative. If you don't find a way to exhaust a man's energy, he'll always come up with some crooked ideas, like giving a speech at a bar or finding other girls."

"Huh?" Hibiki Amber scratched her head. "Is it okay to say that?"

"Of course I can tell you," Mrs. Kotobuki nodded. "If you're going to live with Tou Tou in the future, there will be many temptations in his life... Do you know what the best way is to help him resist these temptations?"

Fei Tu Hu Po shook her head slightly, but still gave an answer based on her own guess: "Let Tou Tou read more books, more Buddhist scriptures or something... to purify her mind and reduce her desires?"

"What are you thinking, child? If you all become celibate, how will I ever hold my granddaughter or anything like that?"

Mrs. Kotobuki reached out and tapped Hitoko's clueless head: "You have such a great natural advantage, yet you don't cherish it..."

"The best way to prevent Tou Tou from being tempted is, of course, to... make yourself the biggest temptation! When he sees other people's feet, he'll think of your feet; when he sees other people's breasts, he'll think of your breasts; when he sees other people's seductive expressions, he'll think of you. That's the only way to solve this once and for all!"

The first update is here!

Please please please please

Chapter 430 The parents have been met; it's time to get married.

Hitoko sat on the gilded and carved sofa in the Kotobuki family home. After chatting with Mrs. Kotobuki for a while, she was led to the dining room.

A chiffon tablecloth has been laid out on the long table under the crystal chandelier, and the silver cutlery gleams warmly under the wall lamps... It looks so relaxing.

Today's family dinner was prepared by the head chef, but Mrs. Kotobuki still enthusiastically put on her embroidered apron and personally took charge of the cooking in the open kitchen, saying that she wanted to show off her skills to Hitoko Amber. Amid the sound of the wok and spatula clashing, the aroma of stir-fried celery and scrambled eggs with tomatoes wafted into the luxurious space, adding a touch of lively human warmth to the cool-toned dining room.

Kotobuki Toru and Hitoko sat at the guest seats at the dining table. Kotobuki Toru looked at Hitoko's flushed face and asked with some confusion, "What did my mom say to you? She... she shouldn't be the type to make things difficult for people, right?"

"No, no." Hitoko quickly shook her head to defend Mrs. Kotobuki: "Your mother has taught me a lot of principles and knowledge, and I'm still processing it."

As a horse girl in the Service Club, she had seen too many fleeting moments in the world of entertainment, but today, for the first time, she touched upon another important role of intimate relationships from Mrs. Kotobuki's words—not only can it release stress and have fun, but it is also a flexible thread that connects the immense weight of family and emotions.

Especially after thoroughly extracting a man's essence and making him completely surrender, everyone's lives become much more harmonious.

Furthermore, considering the Kotobuki family's situation, Mrs. Kotobuki's words are highly credible.

With his wealth and power, Shinichi Kotobuki inevitably encounters various temptations and problems when he goes out. However, so far, Toru Kotobuki's family is still his original family, and Shinichi Kotobuki is surprisingly well-regarded in all aspects except for his poor reputation among the female warriors... He is regarded as a model of a rich and good man.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Kotobuki remained firmly at the core of the family, managing the vast mansion in an orderly manner and raising Kotobuki Toru and Kotobuki Kotobuki to become outstanding young people.

Looking back now, Kotobuki's line, "My mom got the MVP, and my dad was just a pushover," might not actually be an exaggeration or a joke.

Mrs. Kotobuki was able to tell her so much, using her own experience and giving detailed examples. Hitokohaku could naturally feel Mrs. Kotobuki's good intentions. She was really teaching her household management skills... Especially on some very common ways of getting along in the family, Mrs. Kotobuki explained them in great detail, even to the point of being a bit long-winded.

Perhaps considering that... he had no other family members and had not experienced much family life, things that others took for granted were things he longed for but could not obtain, so he deliberately explained them in more detail to make it easier for himself to understand.

Hito Kohaku wanted to exclaim: Kotobuki-mama is the kind of woman who could be my mother!

I was wondering before whether I could successfully handle the legendary "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflict," but now that I see this... I was definitely overthinking it!

Hitoko Amber felt more confident about integrating into Kotobuki Toru's family. The next thing to do was... find a way to join the behemoth that is the Kotobuki family, right?

Fei Tu Hu Po sat upright at the dining table, her attention so focused that she even overlooked the delicious-looking dishes on the table.

Since it was a family dinner, there were no special etiquette rules at the table. After Shinichi Kotobuki, the head of the family, led the way by raising his glass to welcome Hitoko Amber, the aunties who were helping to serve the dishes began to bring out the main courses.

Meanwhile, Hitotsu Kohaku gripped her cup tightly, preparing to give a proper self-introduction, introducing herself, highlighting her strengths, and then describing how much she loved Kotobuki Toru, hoping everyone would wish her and Kotobuki Toru well...

This is how I pursue happiness! There are no shortcuts! It's all from the bottom of my heart!

Then, Hitoko looked at Mrs. Kotobuki with her most sincere gaze.

Mrs. Kotobuki seemed to understand Hitokohaku's determination and nodded slightly.

Hitoko: "Hello everyone, I'm Hitoko. This is my first time visiting the Kotobuki family. Please allow me to introduce myself again..."

Mrs. Kotobuki: "When are you getting married? I can call the matchmaking agency and have them come over."

"I'm studying at... um?" Hito Amber, who had just mustered up her courage, suddenly became confused again, forgetting the words she had just organized in her mind, and just looked at Mrs. Kotobuki with a puzzled expression.

"How did it get so fast to marriage? Normally, after meeting, there's a period of getting to know each other, and after that, there's an engagement and such..."

"You've been reading those online guides until they're completely absorbed, haven't you?" Kotobuki Shinichi slammed his hand on the table and laughed. "People usually go to each other's homes to meet the parents after dating for three or four months, but you two have been together for almost a year and still haven't gotten along... Ouch, honey, don't kick me, it hurts!"

Mrs. Kotobuki glared at Shinichi Kotobuki with disdain and warning, then smiled at Kohaku Hito: "You two have been through quite a lot together. I heard that you, Kohaku, have also faced up to the gap in family background between you and Toru Kotobuki... and you've overcome it now, haven't you? The hardships you two have gone through have proven everything... Do you think we'd vote against it?"

Kotobuki chuckled and nodded, raising her hand and saying, "As an observer, I've been watching for a long time! I agree, who disagrees?"

Seeing this, Kotobuki Toru and Mrs. Kotobuki also raised their hands to indicate their agreement with Kotobuki's point of view.

"I want to vote against it!" Shinichi Kotobuki puffed out his beard and glared. "I won't vote in favor unless Kohaku calls me 'Dad'!"

Kotobuki looked at her father, who was acting like a child, and said speechlessly, "It's no use if you disagree. It's a three-to-one vote, so it's passed. I declare this family meeting adjourned!"

"Uh..." Kotobuki Makoto suddenly became humble. "Wait a minute! I also voted in favor, but I don't want to be called 'uncle' for the rest of my life. Actually, I also spoil Kohaku, okay?"

Kotobuki Toru said speechlessly, "But you've brought her a whole bunch of rich young ladies as rivals... Don't even mention her being unhappy, I'm unhappy too!"

"That's your mother... Well, I'll apologize."

"If apologies were enough, what would we need the police for?" Kotobuki pouted, volunteering to be Hitoko Amber's mouthpiece. "The best solution now is for you to call off the engagement!"

"Hey, is it a bad idea for me to go and say it? It could easily trigger some hidden plot like 'thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river'."

"Then you'll be my uncle for life."

"Okay, okay... I'll go then."

The four of them were arguing quite animatedly, while Hitoko Amber stood by, laughing uncontrollably. However, she did realize one thing for herself: the Kotobuki family truly didn't consider her an outsider...

Taking a new step doesn't seem as difficult as I imagined.

The so-called "integration" is not about nervously charging into enemy territory. When you muster up your courage, there are already several hands ready to gently pull you into the stream called "home".

Chapter 431 What's the difference between driving a car worth 100 million and a horse worth 1 billion?

The meal at the wealthy family's house featured all sorts of delicacies that Hitsuko had never even seen before. In addition, Kotobuki Toru's parents were incredibly enthusiastic after seeing their new "daughter," and they never stopped serving Hitsuko food.

During the meal, the chef and the waitresses changed several times... Although it wasn't explicitly stated, Hitotsu Amber could still see the surprise in everyone's eyes. It was practically as if she was saying, "Horse girls, especially racehorse girls, are not something just anyone can handle."

After eating and drinking their fill, Kotobuki looked at Hitoko Amber's slightly protruding belly and decided to take her for a stroll around the house to digest. However, the two young men, full of vigor, didn't quite appreciate the scenery of the courtyard. In the end, after wandering around, they arrived at the villa's detached garage.

"Are the garages of rich people... built to the specifications of villas?" Fei Tu Hu Po took out her phone and snapped photos: "Everyone online says that dilapidated houses and living conditions are like garages, but if I could live in a garage like that, I would be willing to live there for the rest of my life."

"That's not surprising. Some people even bring their luxury cars into their living rooms and treat them as decorations. Want to see?"

"I want it!" Fei Tu Hu Po exclaimed excitedly. "I really like cars and weapons. Don't you have any?"

"We have cars... but no weapons." Kotobuki Toru walked to the front of the garage, blinked at the facial recognition camera at the top, and the camera instantly recognized him. The garage door slowly rose, and cool air from the central air conditioning blew in. Then, a row of impressive luxury cars appeared in front of the two of them.

Fei Tu Hu Po only recognized a portion of the car models and brands. There was the general's Maybach, the old-established Lamborghini, and even some of the newly emerging electric sports cars from China... It had everything. Basically, you could find the flagship models and most famous models of every brand in this garage.

"Whoa... Oh my god... Three goddesses!"
