After leaving Eishin Flash, Lu Jue suddenly felt a bit lost again.

Perhaps, he should ask Silence Suzuka about her own choice.

......

The results of the physical examination came out the next day.

That evening, everyone gathered at Lu Jue's house for their weekly team building.

Lu Jue carefully read everyone's physical examination reports and found no major problems.

"Very good, everyone is in great condition, even the most gluttonous Xiao Te's BMI is normal."

Special Week puffed out her cheeks, but wasn't really angry, "Trainer, why did you single me out?"

"Because Xiao Te is especially good at eating, of course," Uralala answered directly for Lu Jue.

"Alright, everyone, please eat first," Lu Jue said, then looked at Silence Suzuka, "Silence Suzuka, come with me for a moment, I need to talk to you about the race."

"Okay." Silence Suzuka put down her chopsticks and followed Lu Jue to the balcony.

......

"Lu Jue-jun, what is it?"

Calling her out during dinner, Silence Suzuka felt that Lu Jue must have something important to discuss.

Lu Jue leaned against the wall, his gaze on the lively scene inside the house, "Silence Suzuka, it's still about the Tenno Sho. You really want to participate, right?"

The race schedule was actually arranged by Silence Suzuka herself.

Lu Jue, of course, knew the answer, but he wanted Silence Suzuka to voice her choice herself.

"Don't be nervous. Actually, the schedule isn't too packed, and a month's interval is enough time to rest. Just tell me your answer from your heart."

Silence Suzuka still felt that Lu Jue had been a bit strange recently, but if it was just about the Tenno Sho, her answer was more certain than ever.

"Yes, very much so. I feel like I'm in great form this year and have a very good chance of winning the championship."

This is a G1 level race. You first have to stand out from other competitions, and then achieve victory among Uma Musume who are equally strong.

Every race is a super high-intensity duel, giving your all, even burning out your life, otherwise Eishin Flash wouldn't have been unable to recover after winning the Derby.

So, how many chances does an Uma Musume have to participate in a G1 in her lifetime? And how many chances to reach the pinnacle?

And for an Uma Musume, this is precisely the process of constantly seeking and enriching the meaning of life.

Silence Suzuka, of course, also wanted to add a G1 level championship to her career.

"Good." At this moment, Lu Jue truly felt relieved.

"Lu Jue-jun, I'm very curious, didn't you just ask me yesterday? Why today again..."

"Yesterday was my choice, but I never asked for your choice." Lu Jue felt much more at ease, "I am your Trainer, I should support you, and I should believe in you even more."

After Lu Jue finished speaking, his gaze shifted from inside the house to Silence Suzuka, "Perhaps, you should have refused me yesterday. This is a G1..."

Silence Suzuka shook her head, unconcerned, "Because I also believe in Lu Jue-jun."

She didn't have Lu Jue's eyes and couldn't accurately know her limits, but she could feel her body was in peak condition.

Next year, or the year after, would she still have this mindset and condition? Silence Suzuka couldn't be sure. But yesterday, she was still willing to give up this opportunity for Lu Jue.

"Let's go in and eat. Today, I cooked your favorite steamed egg with meat. If we're any slower, they might snatch it all up."

"Mm!"

......

After dinner, the Uma Musume, with their slightly bulging bellies, suggested going out for a walk.

Lu Jue knew that Silence Suzuka always stayed to help him wash dishes, but this time he specifically refused her, letting her go out and wander.

"I didn't drink today, so I can clean up myself. You all go have fun, just remember to return to the dormitory early."

Lu Jue reminded them, then watched them leave.

However, as soon as he finished cleaning up the trash, Seiun Sky returned alone.

"I feel like you're especially like a cat stealing fish right now." Lu Jue was already used to it.

"'Especially good at stealing'?" Seiun Sky smiled and leaned close to Lu Jue, "So your confusion yesterday was because of Silence Suzuka?"

"Mm." Lu Jue answered truthfully, but the specific details were hard to elaborate on.

Seiun Sky didn't ask either, "It seems you've already resolved it now."

Lu Jue didn't answer, which was an implicit acknowledgment. He smiled and said, "Why aren't you going shopping with them?"

Seeing that Lu Jue had resolved his inner turmoil, Seiun Sky was also happy, "I already said I wouldn't run with them~! I clearly came back specifically to accompany Trainer, but Trainer doesn't appreciate it at all~"

"I appreciate it, I appreciate it. Then you help me wash the dishes." Lu Jue had no resistance to Seiun Sky's playful teasing.

"No, I just ate, I'm tired." Seiun Sky's eyes darted around, and her playful mood returned, "Trainer, I don't want to go back to the dormitory tonight, I'll sleep here with you, how about it? Tell me if you want me to, if you do, I'll stay."

How could Lu Jue not know that Seiun Sky was joking, but he planned to teach her a lesson for her loose tongue.

So, he put down what he was doing, hugged Seiun Sky from behind, and his large hand caressed her currently very elastic little belly, "But I have a habit of sleeping naked at night, mm... the completely naked kind, and I especially love to hug pillows. Will you be my pillow tonight? If you agree, I'll let you stay."

Seiun Sky surrendered without any resistance, and Lu Jue's scorching breath tickled her ears, making them soft, and soon her whole shoulder softened too.

"Why aren't you talking?"

Lu Jue slightly turned his gaze, only to find Seiun Sky's face flushed, like a ripe pomegranate, as if a gentle squeeze could make water gush out.

And her eyes were filled with shimmering autumn waves.

Lu Jue realized that this little cat was in love.

He was just about to let go, but then he heard Seiun Sky whisper tremblingly in his ear, "Want a kiss, haven't had a kiss today..."

Lu Jue saw the furnace fire burning brightly, but instead of immediately warming himself, he added another piece of firewood, "No kissing, no kissing. You just finished eating, your little mouth smells."

"No, I gargled!" In a panic, Seiun Sky turned around, her breath like orchids, and haphazardly tugged at Lu Jue's collar, pulling him closer to her.

"It doesn't smell... You, you'll know if you taste it."

"Alright, then I'll reluctantly, mm--"

She looked up, aimed at Lu Jue's lips, and kissed him by surprise.

The little Trainer was suddenly counter-attacked and directly captured.

Little Pelvis: Sumimasen, little Trainer-chan, Watashi is a little scared about the future.
