Yang Chen stood beside Xu Xiaowan.
Yang Chen’s athletic physique was on full display, instantly captivating Xu Xiaowan.
Her heart raced, her face flushed, and a wave of heat washed over her. She hadn’t seen Yang Chen in such good shape during their university reunions at the swimming pool.
She hadn’t expected that after graduation, he would embrace such a healthy and active lifestyle, even sculpting his body so impressively.
Seeing everyone in the pool looking their way, Xu Xiaowan felt a sudden surge of pride.
“Can you swim?” Yang Chen asked.
Xu Xiaowan nodded. “A little, but I’m not very good. Is it deep?”
“Not very deep, about shoulder height. Come on, I’ll support you, and you can slowly swim over,” Yang Chen replied.
Xu Xiaowan nodded and awkwardly dog-paddled towards the middle of the pool.
Yang Chen’s hand hovered under her abdomen, ready to support her at any moment.
The women who had been eyeing Yang Chen all shot disdainful glances, silently branding Xu Xiaowan a manipulative user.
After swimming a few meters, Xu Xiaowan suddenly increased her stroke frequency and said anxiously, “Oh, ah, Yang Chen, please support me a bit, I feel like I can’t paddle anymore.”
Yang Chen quickly lifted her abdomen, and with the support, she immediately clung to him.
“Bitch!” the women nearby said in unison.
At that moment, Wang Qianni had the same thought. “That little slut is such a good actress. ‘Oh, ah, quickly support me, I can’t paddle anymore.’ Please! Such a green tea bitch [a woman who seems innocent but is actually manipulative]! Does this idiot actually like this type of woman? Am I, so straightforward, not good enough? Damn it!”
No matter how angry she was, Yang Chen was enjoying his time with Xu Xiaowan.
After a while, as Yang Chen was supporting Xu Xiaowan’s abdomen and teaching her to swim, a commotion erupted nearby.
Yang Chen turned his head and saw the women from earlier surrounding Wang Qianni, pointing and scolding her.
Yang Chen quickly said to Xu Xiaowan, “Come on, lie on my back, quick.”
Xu Xiaowan quickly did as she was told, lying on Yang Chen’s back.
Yang Chen quickly walked over, smiling, and said, “Ladies, what’s going on? Why are you arguing instead of enjoying a swim on such a hot day?”
The women were annoyed to see Yang Chen carrying Xu Xiaowan on his back.
“Handsome, how many female companions do you have?”
“Didn’t she just say you were her man? Turns out you’re not.”
“What’s the meaning of this? Is she putting on a damsel-in-distress act?”
“It’s okay to flirt and rely on your own charms, but pretending is just wrong.”
…
Wang Qianni, with her straightforward and fiery personality, retorted, “What relationship I have with him is none of your business, is it? Even if he’s not my man, he still has a female companion. Aren’t you all ashamed? What’s the point of throwing yourselves at him [主动倒贴上去, zhǔ dòng dào tiē shàng qù]?”
The women retorted sharply.
“Who are you calling shameless? Looking for a fight?”
“We’re not throwing ourselves at him; we’re just having normal communication and interaction. Some women are flaunting their big chests, but he still doesn’t want them. Who’s really shameless?”
“Haha… that’s right, who was shamelessly showing off [发骚, fāsāo, literally ‘giving off a mating call’] with her chest out earlier? If you call yourself second in shamelessness, no one dares to call themselves first.”
…
Wang Qianni immediately grabbed the hair of the woman who was scolding her the most fiercely and pushed her into the water.
Damn, this woman must have always gotten her way, her temper is really fiery.
Seeing their companion being pushed into the water, the other women quickly went to grab Wang Qianni.
Yang Chen had no choice but to step in to break up the fight, pulling the women apart and pulling the woman out of the water, then scolding Wang Qianni to let go.
Wang Qianni said with tears in her eyes, “Who am I to you? Why should I listen to you? They were scolding me, didn’t you hear?”
Seeing her tearful appearance, Yang Chen couldn’t bring himself to scold her.
Yang Chen said to the women, “Everyone, I’m sorry. We are indeed friends, and she stepped in to help me because she saw you bothering me. I’ll apologize to you on her behalf. I’ll buy everyone a drink when we get out. Okay?”
The woman who was pushed into the water by Wang Qianni was unconvinced. “Are you kidding me? I was pushed into the water and swallowed several mouthfuls, and you think a drink is enough? I’m going to make her drink a few mouthfuls of water today, or this isn’t over.”
“Your words were a bit harsh, and she’s used to getting her way, so she has a fiery temper. Of course, that’s not a reason for her to push you into the water. What I mean is, we can compensate in other ways. You can name your terms,” Yang Chen said patiently.
The woman wiped the water off her face and said, “Okay! Then it depends on whether you’re sensible or not. Come clubbing with us sisters tonight, and as long as we’re happy, this matter is over.”
Clubbing?
To be honest, Yang Chen had never been to such a place in his life.
When he was dating Zhao Feifei, he had only been to some quiet bars.
Yang Chen quickly replied, “I’ve never been to such a place, let’s do something else.”
The woman revealed a sly smile and said, “Okay! Then come to the hotel with us sisters, and we’ll talk about anything after we’ve had our fun.”
As soon as these words came out, Xu Xiaowan, still on Yang Chen’s back, wanted to get down and tear her mouth apart.
How could the hot-tempered Wang Qianni tolerate this?
“You wish! Bitch!” Wang Qianni cursed, grabbing the woman’s hair from behind and pulling her backward into the water.
This time it was serious, and the woman gulped down several mouthfuls of water.
As the other women were about to attack, Yang Chen quickly carried Wang Qianni to the shore.
“You’re such a violent woman! Can’t you talk things out nicely?” Yang Chen chided.
“If we talked nicely, you would have been gang-raped by them! Do you want to be gang-raped by them?” Wang Qianni said without hesitation.
Yang Chen was speechless, wondering how she could jump to such conclusions.
Could a grown man like him really be gang-raped by a group of women?
Damn it!
Who does she think he is!
“Don’t go!”
“You can’t leave!”
“This isn’t over today, no one can leave!”
The women shouted as they chased after them.
The others in the pool stopped to watch the spectacle.
The male tourists were all sighing.
“Damn! This is too crazy. So many women fighting over him?”
“He’s truly a paragon of our generation!”
“This is what you call a real man! A man living to this point is worth it in this lifetime!”
“These women are even crazier than men when they get horny! Fighting over a man in broad daylight, that’s too awesome!”
…
Yang Chen quickly helped Wang Qianni ashore, then helped Xu Xiaowan off his back, and then spread his arms to the women who were chasing after them, saying, “Everyone! Ladies, can you listen to me for a few words?”
“What’s there to say?”
“Yeah! What are you going to say? Don’t think you can be arrogant just because you have some looks!”
“Things have developed to this point, even if you have some looks, it’s useless! If I don’t make her drink her fill of the pool water today, my name isn’t Zhao Yufen.”
