Everyday Romance After Becoming a Billionaire

Chapter 102 - 89: More Than Friends, Less Than Lovers

For a mansion like Su Ran’s, worth tens of millions, an indoor swimming pool was naturally a standard feature.

They had already been to a hot spring together, so swimming together was hardly a big deal.

At the hot spring, they had worn modest, one-piece swimsuits—very conservative.

This time, for their swimming lesson, they wore bikinis—very sexy ones.

The main reason was that the only spare swimsuits in Su Ran’s changing room were all bikinis. When Xiao Wanqing and the others saw this, they were utterly speechless. ’That damn man is so ruthless.’ He always pulled the same trick: "I won’t get involved, you girls pick for yourselves." But was there really a choice? The only choice they had was which color bikini to wear.

They had to hand it to him; this was how a high-IQ, wealthy man like Su Ran operated—utterly domineering and unreasonable.

’Whatever,’ they thought. ’We’ll just consider it a bonus for us.’

「The Pool Room」

After swimming two laps, Su Ran watched as the four fair-skinned beauties approached, laughing and chatting in their bikinis. Their figures, being dancers, were naturally flawless. And at eighteen or nineteen, they were all brimming with youthful spirit.

It was a feast for the eyes. ’Add some booze,’ he thought, ’and this place would be a literal pool of wine and forest of meat.’

The ultimate indulgence, fit for an emperor.

As they reached the poolside, Aina kicked Liu Jinyu and Xie Yiren—the two who couldn’t swim—straight into the water.

"Aina, you’re dead! Ahh—"

SPLASH!

SPLASH!

Two huge splashes erupted as the two bikini-clad beauties hit the water.

Su Ran kicked off and swam over, scooping up one soft girl in each arm.

Since neither of them could swim, they clung to Su Ran for dear life. One wrapped her arms around his waist, the other around his neck.

Su Ran turned his head to look at Xie Yiren on his left. The woman was genuinely terrified—so scared that the Phoenix on her back began to materialize.

"Don’t be scared. I’d drown before I let anything happen to you."

As he said this, he made a move to let go. Xie Yiren flinched, yanking his hand back and clamping it tightly against her slender waist.

"Don’t you dare let go."

"How am I supposed to teach you if you’re like this?"

"Then I won’t learn."

"..."

Su Ran was speechless. He turned to look at Liu Jinyu on his right. All traces of her usual ice-queen demeanor were gone; right now, she was just a helpless little bunny.

"Don’t you trust your own boyfriend?"

Again, he made a move to let go, and Liu Jinyu likewise pulled his hand back, pressing it against her own slender waist.

"Let go and we’re breaking up."

PFFT—

Su Ran nearly burst out laughing.

"Alright, fine... How about this? I’ll take you two to the shallow end first?"

"Mhm, mhm, mhm."

Su Ran swam toward the shallow end, an arm around each of the girls.

Over on the other side, Aina was teaching Xiao Wanqing. Aina was a harsh instructor; she delivered a sharp smack to Wanqing’s butt, which seemed to carry a hint of a personal grudge. Su Ran winced just watching.

"Why did you hit me? What the hell did I do to deserve this? Su Ran wants to spank my ass, and now you want to spank my ass too!"

"Less talk, more training. Otherwise, I’ll smack your ass raw."

"I don’t want you to teach me! I want Su Ran to teach me! Su Ran, come over here and teach me~"

Su Ran really couldn’t bear to watch Aina’s "drill sergeant" teaching style any longer. He swam over and said to her, "You go teach the other two. I’ll handle Wanqing."

Aina replied, "If she doesn’t listen, just spank her."

Su Ran: "..."

Su Ran’s methods were much gentler, much to Xiao Wanqing’s satisfaction.

Teaching non-swimmers inevitably involved physical contact, and Su Ran certainly wasn’t complaining about all the touching.

At the same time, it was driving him wild~

After a long lesson, the three girls seemed to have gotten the hang of it. It was time to test the results of the two coaches’ instruction.

He took off their floaties and had them try swimming toward the deep end.

At the sound of a whistle, the three began to doggy-paddle forward. As they swam into deeper water and their feet could no longer touch the bottom, they started to panic. Forgetting all their new skills, they began to flail and sputter.

Aina and Su Ran dove into the water. Aina rescued Xie Yiren, while Su Ran saved Liu Jinyu and Xiao Wanqing.

Su Ran asked, "Are you okay?"

Liu Jinyu replied, "It’s too deep. We got scared."

"It’s alright. You can’t expect to learn so quickly on your first day. Let’s call it a day."

One by one, he lifted them out of the water and onto the deck.

They all dried off with bath towels. It was still early, so Aina suggested they go to the private entertainment room to sing. Su Ran didn’t mind; as long as they were having fun, he was happy.

"Let’s go..."

Su Ran took a few steps, then stopped and turned back to look the four bikini-clad beauties up and down. They were only wearing slippers.

"Aren’t you going to put something on?"

"This will do!"

Aina pattered over to the sofa and grabbed a few silk scarves. "We can just wrap these around our bikinis."

It would have been better if they hadn’t wrapped them at all; the scarves only made them look even sexier.

Xiao Wanqing raised a threatening fist. "What, are you getting ideas? I’m warning you, don’t even think about it, or I’ll punch you."

"Relax, I won’t. I’ve got Jinyu, and that’s enough for me!" he said, pulling Jinyu into his arms. "Besides, didn’t you all want to hear me sing? I’ll sing for you in a bit."

"What’s your best song?"

"’Listen to Me Say Thank You.’"

"We’re gonna kill you—"

The four women rushed forward and started hitting Su Ran playfully.

The room filled with laughter and cheerful voices, full of fun.

「The Entertainment Room」

Aina was on the stage, singing.

The others were off-stage, drinking and chatting. Xiao Wanqing asked, "Su Ran, out of the four of us, who do you think has the best body?"

"My Jinyu has the best body, of course."

Xiao Wanqing laughed and pointed at Su Ran. "I knew you wouldn’t fall for that."

Su Ran replied, "You’re trying to stir up trouble, but I’m not giving you the chance."

"It doesn’t matter who’s ’best.’ All men like beautiful women."

Xiao Wanqing nodded. "Can’t argue with that. What man isn’t a perv? A man who isn’t a perv isn’t a real man. Remember that ’virtuous master’ who got exposed for following tons of girls with long legs? He had to tearfully delete them all, hahaha..."

"It’s normal for men," Su Ran said with a helpless laugh. "It’s just that some guys are obviously horny but put on this high-and-mighty act—total hypocrites who want to have their cake and eat it too. Can’t they be a little more real?" He went on, "But then I don’t get some people’s logic. Just because a guy is secretly thirsty for girls but doesn’t act on it in front of them, they call him inauthentic and fake."
