Because he felt a bit awkward, Xia Liu did not take off his clothes; he was already soaked anyway.
He first went into the water to test its depth and ensure it was safe before allowing Zhang Qing to get in.
Xia Liu said what to do and Zhang Qing did it, but her face was constantly flushed—after all, she wore rather little. Thankfully, it was deep in the night, and Xia Liu didn't see her embarrassed expression.
Honestly, Xia Liu didn't have much technique in teaching swimming; he merely taught Zhang Qing the way the elders had taught him when he was young.
He first showed Zhang Qing how to use her hands to paddle and how to move her feet underwater, starting with the simplest freestyle.
After Zhang Qing understood, he used his hands to support her body, letting her float on the water's surface.
Zhang Qing tried hard, kicking with her legs and continuously paddling with her hands.
