Super Rich by Doing as You Please

Xu Yun nodded and began to stretch his arms and legs. As he bent backward, his form wasn’t quite right, so Sun Yi seized the opportunity and immediately pressed her body close.

She used both hands to help press down on his lower back.

She said, "Brother Xu, let me help you."

After they finished a simple set of warm-ups, the two got into the shallow end of the pool.

To prevent him from cramping up in the water later, Sun Yi proactively patted water gently onto his arms and legs.

When she got to his knees, she went a step further and squatted down in front of him.

Looking down at her, Xu Yun felt the posture was a little... suggestive, as if she were about to "bite." The thought made him a bit awkward.

’Once your mind wanders down that path, you’re bound to get into trouble, especially with her so close.’

Sun Yi looked up, and a quick glance was all it took to notice a certain change.

Her face flushed. Pretending she hadn’t seen anything, she stood up and said, "Brother Xu, shall we begin?"

"Ahem." Xu Yun cleared his throat tactically. "Let’s begin. What are we doing first?"

"Breathing exercises."

Sun Yi explained, "We’ll start by putting our heads underwater to practice holding our breath. When you feel you can’t hold it any longer, slowly raise your head to breathe, then lower your head again and exhale into the water.

We need to practice this repeatedly until we can do it proficiently. Then we’ll move on to practicing your form."

With that, Sun Yi demonstrated the exercise.

Then it was Xu Yun’s turn.

The moment he put his head underwater, he saw a pair of fair, smooth legs.

’This isn’t swimming practice, this is a test of my self-control!’

Just as the two were getting the hang of the exercise, Zhang Jiaxin, who had been out, returned.

Who knows who told her, but her expression changed the moment she heard that Xu Yun and Sun Yi had gone to the private pool.

It was called a private pool, but everyone knew what that *really* meant.

’A man and a woman in such a private space, wearing so little... something was bound to happen!’

’That Sun Yi is so shameless, trying to steal my client.’

Fuming, she went straight to the locker room, changed into her swimsuit, and stormed toward the private pool.

Xu Yun was just thinking he’d gotten the hang of the breaststroke breathing. With his head still underwater, he saw another pair of shapely legs jump into the pool.

Curious, he immediately lifted his head and saw Zhang Jiaxin standing not far away.

"Coach Zhang, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Jiaxin glanced at Sun Yi and smiled. "I heard you were practicing swimming with Coach Sun, so I came over to see what all the fuss was about. I wanted to see how you’re progressing. I’m not interrupting, am I?"

"Not at all."

Sun Yi was annoyed, but she kept a smile on her face. "Brother Xu is very talented. He’s making great progress."

"Brother Xu, if you want to learn how to swim, you could learn from me, you know. I’d teach you for free."

Zhang Jiaxin added, "I’m a pretty good swimmer myself."

"But you’re still not quite as good as me."

Sun Yi retorted mockingly, "Jiaxin, don’t waste Brother Xu’s time. He can go to your weight room to train after he’s finished his swim practice."

"You think my skills aren’t as good as yours?"

Zhang Jiaxin said defiantly, "Then why don’t we compete, right here, right now, in front of Brother Xu?"

"Fine! Bring it on! I’m not scared of you. We’ll race one lap, there and back. Let’s see who’s fastest."

Sun Yi said without a hint of fear, "Brother Xu, you can be our judge, okay?"

"Sure."

Xu Yun smiled. "Since it’s a competition, there ought to be a prize. How about this? As the judge, I’ll give the winner ten thousand. How does that sound?"

"..." Zhang Jiaxin

"..." Sun Yi

That was incredibly generous.

Their monthly salaries were only twenty to thirty thousand, and now they could win ten thousand just for swimming a single lap!

This only strengthened their resolve to get their hooks into Xu Yun.

"Thank you, Brother Xu."

Sun Yi was the first to react, smiling as she said, "If I win, I’ll use the prize money to treat you to dinner tonight, Brother Xu."

"Don’t get ahead of yourself."

Zhang Jiaxin shot back, "Try winning first before you start making big promises."

"Fine by me. Just don’t be a sore loser when the time comes."

Once the two of them were in position at the edge of the pool, Xu Yun shouted from the side, "Ready... Go!"

Zhang Jiaxin and Sun Yi instantly dove into the water, swimming through it like a pair of mermaids.

Zhang Jiaxin had a faster start, immediately taking the lead.

But slowly, Sun Yi caught up from behind, gradually overtaking her by half a body length.

As the spectator on the side of the pool, Xu Yun had to admit that Sun Yi’s swimming ability was clearly a cut above Zhang Jiaxin’s.

In the end, Zhang Jiaxin was defeated, with Sun Yi winning by a comfortable margin.

She asked smugly, "Well, Jiaxin? What do you have to say for yourself now?"

"..." Zhang Jiaxin stood in the water, looking frustrated.

Xu Yun spoke up. "Coach Sun, congratulations on winning the ten thousand prize. Add me on WeChat later, and I’ll transfer it to you."

"Thank you, Brother Xu."

Sun Yi made a heart shape with her hands toward Xu Yun. "Love ya! You’re the best!"

"Coach Zhang, don’t be so down about it."

Xu Yun said, "After I’m done practicing with Coach Sun, I’ll come find you. As a consolation prize, I’ll treat you to dinner."

"Okay, Brother Xu."

Hearing this, Zhang Jiaxin brightened up and climbed out of the pool. "In that case, I’ll get going. I won’t disturb your lesson anymore."

"???" Sun Yi.

’Wait, what just happened?!’

After Zhang Jiaxin left, Sun Yi said with some dissatisfaction, "Brother Xu, but you said that if I won, *I* would get to treat you to dinner!"

"Next time."

Xu Yun said, "Next time we have the chance, I’ll treat you to Boboji."
