Xiao Youran listened quietly, but the more she listened, the more shocked she became.
Song Siyu was also extremely surprised.
An Shishi appeared calm on the surface, but her eyes flickered, revealing the storm brewing within her heart.
After coming to her senses, Xiao Youran couldn't help but ask, "Xiao Xu, did your novel really earn over a million?"
Xu Xiuwen nodded.
Song Siyu couldn't help but ask either, "Are what you said all true?"
Xu Xiuwen didn't know what got into her today, so he didn't indulge her and directly retorted, "What benefits would I get from lying to you? Should I take you to the bank to check the details?"
Bai Yue'er also added, "Xu Xiuwen is telling the truth. He's the one financing our film crew. Like this swimming pool, it's rented by the crew, and he's paying for it."
Xiao Youran doesn't have a strong concept of money, but she knows that 1 million is a very large number.
Her parents have worked for many years but still don't have 1 million in savings.
Yet now, Xiao Xu has unexpectedly earned over 1 million by writing novels.
She felt incredulous yet proud for Xu Xiuwen, feeling both honored and conflicted.
Just the thought of Xu Xiuwen being such an outstanding individual, yet not being her boyfriend, made her feel a bit upset.
"Alright, now that you know the situation, you guys should hurry back. I still need to teach Yue'er how to swim."
The three girls looked at each other, none of them budging.
"Xiao Xu, can we stay?" Xiao Youran asked.
"Do you all want to swim?"
Xiao Youran is not at ease with Xu Xiuwen and Bai Yue'er being alone together, especially noticing Bai Yue'er's good figure and her exposed fair legs, which makes her even more uneasy.
"Is it okay?"
Xu Xiuwen thought for a moment and agreed.
"Okay, you guys go change into your swimsuits."
Seeing the three girls heading towards the women's changing room, Xu Xiuwen turned to Bai Yue'er and said, "Sorry about that, Yue'er."
Bai Yue'er smiled and replied, "It's okay, I don't mind."
"Okay, let's continue."
Bai Yue'er continued practicing, and after some time of trying, her performance improved slightly.
At least she wasn't sinking immediately, but could swim about three or four meters away.
Xu Xiuwen was focused on watching Bai Yue'er practice when suddenly he heard a sound coming from behind him.
He knew it's the three girls who came back after changing into their swimsuits.
He instinctively turned to look, and was stunned.
Xiao Youran was walking at the front.
Her swimsuit is also the most conservative, it's a one-piece swimsuit that covers down to the knees, and even covers the arms to the elbows, hardly revealing anything.
However, with her height of 168cm, B+ cup size, and slender yet well-proportioned figure, she is very eye-catching.
At this moment, she wasn't alone, as the presence of Song Siyu and An Shishi by her side was so captivating that it overshadowed her radiance.
An Shishi wore a pink two-piece swimsuit, with a bralette on the upper body held together by a few thin straps around the neck, and a skirt covering just the essential parts while leaving her waist and legs exposed.
An Shishi's figure was exceptionally stunning, with curves in all the right places, combined with fair skin that was simply mouth-watering.
Song Siyu's swimsuit surprised Xu Xiuwen.
The girl was wearing a set of black bikini!
Except for the chest and key areas, the rest of the body was completely exposed to the air.
Although she wasn't wearing the least fabric bikini, it was still very impactful.
Song Siyu looked a bit uncomfortable, with her hands constantly covering herself, appearing hesitant.
Xu Xiuwen originally thought the three girls were going to the changing room to change into swimsuits.
At most, he expected them to choose swimsuits similar to Bai Yue'er's style.
But who would have thought that An Shishi and Song Siyu would be so bold and uninhibited, opening his eyes to new experiences.
Xu Xiuwen's gaze swept over the youthful and delightful bodies of the girls.
Though Song Siyu wore the least, her flaw was apparent—she wasn't endowed enough.
Xiao Youran was well-proportioned.
An Shishi, however, left a lasting impression, as she was at least a C cup.
As Xu Xiuwen assessed the three girls, their gazes also took note of him.
Seeing his robust physique and sexy abs, the girls blushed a bit, and Xiao Youran was no exception.
Song Siyu felt Xu Xiuwen's gaze linger on her, feeling a tingling sensation all over her body.
Unable to help herself, she spat out, "What are you looking at?"
"Oh, daring to wear but not daring to let people see, huh?" Xu Xiuwen laughed and asked back.
Song Siyu has something on her mind right now.
Just now, when she returned to the women's changing room and was about to change into her swimsuit, she suddenly noticed that the swimsuit she casually grabbed from the shelf didn't seem right.
Apart from the swimsuit in An Shishi's hand, which was a conservative one-piece swimsuit, the ones in her and Xiao Youran's hands were very sexy and revealing.
Song Siyu had never worn this kind of swimsuit before.
She didn't have the courage to wear it at all.
Xiao Youran also blushed as she looked at the pink two-piece swimsuit in her hand, thinking, 'Isn't this too revealing? Even though only Xiao Xu will see it, I still feel so shy.'
Both girls were somewhat conflicted.
Song Siyu even wondered whether to return to the front desk to change outfits, but she felt too embarrassed to do so.
An Shishi noticed Xiao Youran's hesitation and took the initiative, saying, "Youran, wear my outfit. I really like the one you're carrying."
Xiao Youran didn't think much about it and immediately agreed to An Shishi's suggestion.
After putting on her clothes, looking at the sexy and charming An Shishi, Xiao Youran felt some regret.
Considering Xiao Xu's personality, he should also like the swimsuit on An Shishi, right?
As for Song Siyu's swimsuit.
Xiao Youran didn't think Xu Xiuwen would like such a revealing swimsuit.
Song Siyu saw that An Shishi and Xiao Youran had already changed into their swimsuits.
If she were to suggest changing into another one at this point, it would seem like she's intentionally avoiding something, which would be too forced, so she could only grit her teeth and change into her swimsuit.
After seeing Song Siyu's swimsuit, Xiao Youran couldn't help but praise, "Siyu, you look really beautiful."
The usually confident girl from the Beijing blushed suddenly.
And then came the scene now.
To avoid Xu Xiuwen's gaze, and also to conceal her shy emotions, Song Siyu chose to enter the swimming pool.
When the pool water enveloped their bodies, the shy emotions eased a bit.
An Shishi and Xiao Youran also entered the water.
Xiao Youran hadn't swum in a long time, so she was excited when she got in and swam back and forth in the pool.
In the water, Xiao Youran is like a beautiful elf, her exquisite figure displaying curves to the fullest, stirring the hearts of men.
Compared to Xiao Youran's graceful swimming posture, Bai Yue'er's movements are extremely clumsy, almost laughable.
Bai Yue'er also looks at Xiao Youran with envy written all over her face.
Song Siyu couldn't help but praise, "You swim so well, Youran."
Xiao Yuran swam like a mermaid and reached Song Siyu's side, splashing her with water as she emerged from the surface.
"Youran, don't be naughty!" Song Siyu playfully scolded.
"Hehe..."
Xiao Youran emitted a silver bell-like laughter.
An Shishi walked to Xu Xiuwen's side and asked softly, "Master, I don't know how to swim either. Can you teach me?"
Xu Xiuwen readily replied, "Sure."
"Yue'er, you continue practicing, I'll teach Shishi the basic movements."
Bai Yue'er nodded and continued practicing swimming on her own on the side.
Xu Xiuwen then led An Shishi to the edge of the pool.
Like before, he taught her how to float and how to kick her legs.
At first, everything went smoothly.
But when Xu Xiuwen asked her to move her hands from the edge of the pool to the kickboard, the girl suddenly sank into the water, then swiftly emerged, flailing her arms wildly and accidentally grabbing onto Xu Xiuwen's body.
An Shishi felt like she had caught a lifesaving straw, and her whole body immediately wrapped around it.
After about a minute, An Shishi gradually calmed down.
She lowered her head to look at her current posture.
She clung to Xu Xiuwen's neck and waist tightly, like an octopus, with her arms and slender legs wrapped around him.
Suddenly, her face turned red, and she quickly let go, jumping down.
"I'm sorry, Master," An Shishi tilted her head and whispered softly, "I didn't mean to."
A charming blush appeared on her face.
