Xu Xiuwen never expected to see the three girls of Xiao Youran by the poolside.
When he heard someone call him and turned around to see the three girls, he was stunned on the spot.
How did you guys get here?
After coming to his senses, Xu Xiuwen instinctively asked, "Why are you guys here?"
Seeing Xu Xiuwen's surprised expression, Song Siyu felt both angry and frustrated, she rebuked, "Xu Xiuwen, stop pretending. I never thought you were this kind of person, two-timing and deceiving others' feelings! You're really despicable!"
Xiao Youran asked, "Xiao Xu, why? Did I do something wrong?"
An Shishi: "Youran, Siyu, don't get excited yet, it might be a misunderstanding."
"We saw it with our own eyes, what misunderstanding?" Song Siyu immediately retorted.
Through the expressions and words of the three women, Xu Xiuwen instantly understood their thoughts.
Are they here to catch the adulterers?
Let's not talk about whether I have anything to do with Bai Yue'er or not, even if there is a relationship, I can't bear the reputation of a scumbag.
"Have you caused enough trouble!"
Xu Xiuwen's face instantly turned cold.
"Xu Xiuwen, why are you getting angry? You were the one who cheated first, do you still have the nerve to argue?"
Song Siyu was infuriated by Xu Xiuwen's words. She didn't even know why she was so angry. In theory, it should be Xiao Youran who was angry.
Xu Xiuwen immediately retorted, "Don't spread rumors. Yue'er and I are innocent, not as improper as you think."
Song Siyu gave him a disdainful look, "Do you think I'll believe that?"
"Do you believe whether or not I have anything to do with you?"
"You—!"
Xiao Youran's mood immediately improved upon hearing Xu Xiuwen's denial. She couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Xu, what's really going on?"
Xu Xiuwen retorted, "I was about to ask you guys the same thing. You came to me without warning, accused me of cheating without any evidence, called me a scumbag. I want to know, who did I cheat on? Who am I scumming?"
Song Siyu coldly snorted, "Xu Xiuwen, you've got some nerve. The three of us, with all six eyes saw it, and you still want to play innocent?"
"Song Siyu, are you out of your mind? Are you suggesting that if the people in the swimming pool were you and me, Youran would also think we have an improper relationship?"
Song Siyu was shocked and quickly denied, "Don't talk nonsense, we have no relationship at all."
"Do you even know we have no relationship? With your attitude, I thought you were my girlfriend," Xu Xiuwen said calmly.
She does seem to be meddling in others' affairs.
She hesitated for a second, then said, "I'm not, it's for Youran. Can't I ask on her behalf?"
Xu Xiuwen turned to look at Xiao Youran. "You clarify, are we in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship?"
Xiao Youran was bewildered by Xu Xiuwen's consecutive words.
At this moment, upon hearing his question, Xiao Youran bit her lip and remained silent.
"Saw that? Youran doesn't even dare to say we're boyfriend and girlfriend. Look at you, as if acting like the queen's eunuch."
"Asshole!" Song Siyu cursed, "You actually said I'm a eunuch."
Xu Xiuwen sneered, "You can call me scum, but I can't call you? Besides, I didn't say you're a eunuch, you said it yourself."
Song Siyu was furious, "Your implication clearly suggests I'm a eunuch."
"Don't falsely accuse the innocent."
Watching the two continue to argue, Xiao Youran felt powerless to stop them, her thoughts also very confused.
An Shishi noticed the situation was not right and quickly interrupted them, "Siyu, calm down and listen to Xu Xiuwen's explanation. This might be a misunderstanding."
Bai Yue'er was initially bewildered as well.
Especially when the three girls suddenly appeared and aggressively questioned Xu Xiuwen.
However, through the conversation of the four people, she gradually understood what was going on.
She was puzzled about the relationship between Xu Xiuwen and the three girls, but still chose to explain, "Um, you've misunderstood. We're just classmates. We have a scene to film about swimming next, but I can't swim, so Xu Xiuwen is teaching me. That's all."
When Bai Yue'er spoke, the surroundings instantly quieted down.
Xiao Youran stared at Xu Xiuwen nervously and asked, "Is it true, Xiao Xu?"
Song Siyu and An Shishi also stared at Xu Xiuwen.
Xu Xiuwen didn't want to explain, but since Bai Yue'er had already spoken, he just nodded in agreement.
Seeing Xu Xiuwen nod, Xiao Youran immediately broke into a smile.
Song Siyu pursed her lips and remained silent.
An Shishi whispered, "So it was all a misunderstanding. It's good that it's cleared up."
Xu Xiuwen also saw the tear marks on Xiao Youran's face at this moment. He pointed to a distance and said, "There's a washbasin over there. Go wash your face and see how you look now."
"Okay." Xiao Youran felt uncomfortable at the thought of appearing in front of Xu Xiuwen like a little kitten, so she prepared to wash her face.
Seeing this, Song Siyu said, "I'll accompany you."
An Shishi stayed by the poolside.
Xu Xiuwen asked again, "How did you know I was here?"
An Shishi replied, "I heard it from people on your crew."
"That Lu Hu!"
Xu Xiuwen immediately thought of Lu Hu. Only he knew that he was at the swimming pool this afternoon.
Seeing Xu Xiuwen not speaking, An Shishi glanced at the departing Xiao Youran and Song Siyu, then whispered, "Master, are you really filming? Why didn't you tell us?"
Upon hearing the girl calling him "master," Xu Xiuwen recalled the experience of that afternoon.
Regarding the suspicion from the girls just now, the anger hasn't completely dissipated, but he won't show it to An Shishi. "I am indeed filming. I've been too busy lately, so I forgot."
"By the way, who told you to find me?"
An Shishi didn't speak, but she glanced quietly at Song Siyu.
Xu Xiuwen didn't know exactly who she was looking at, but speculated it should be Song Siyu. He felt very speechless, "This Song Siyu really loves to meddle in other people's business."
Soon, Xiao Youran and Song Siyu, who had finished washing their faces, returned.
After washing her face, the clear water revealed the beauty of Xiao Youran's beautiful little face, which was simply dazzling.
Xiao Youran suddenly turned to Bai Yue'er and said, "Hello, I'm Xiao Youran. I've known Xiao Xu since we were kids, for eighteen years."
Bai Yue'er felt slightly surprised but immediately responded, "Hello, I'm Bai Yue'er, Xu Xiuwen's classmate."
Then she added, "I'm currently playing the female lead in the novel adaptation of Xu Xiuwen's drama."
Song Siyu and An Shishi also introduced themselves.
The four women got to know each other like this.
Hearing Bai Yue'er's words, Xiao Youran glanced at Xu Xiuwen, then continued to ask Bai Yue'er, "Bai Yue'er, are you saying that the female lead you play is a character from Xiao Xu's novel?"
Bai Yue'er nodded and said, "Hmm, don't you know? The TV drama we're filming now was written by Xu Xiuwen, and he even provided the filming budget."
"Ah!" Xiao Youran's mouth slightly agape, wearing an expression of disbelief.
Song Siyu and An Shishi were also extremely surprised.
"Xiao Xu, why didn't you tell me? And where did you get the money from? You haven't been deceived, have you?"
Xiao Youran asked directly in three consecutive questions, her face filled with concern for Xu Xiuwen.
The girl's care for him was evident, but Xu Xiuwen wasn't moved by it to that extent.
He thought for a moment, realizing that he couldn't hide it forever, so he might as well tell Xiao Youran sooner rather than later.
To prevent her from overthinking and causing any more trouble.
So he decided to tell her about writing novels to make money, and then his plan to make a TV series.
