139: Chapter 139 I was tricked by the system
The swimming pool was quickly cleaned up.
Lin Xiao changed into his swimming trunks and went downstairs, feeling increasingly anxious.
He saw his third sister wearing a sexy swimsuit, lounging on a chair by the pool, leisurely drinking juice and eating the small snacks that Su Xiumei had just freshly baked herself.
As the saying goes, eating sweets puts people in a good mood.
Since she was in a good mood, everything should go smoothly, right?
Lin Xiao comforted himself this way and walked up nervously.
But who would have thought that as soon as he approached, he would hear Su Yu's emotionless voice.
"A-Xiao, when you entered the courtyard just now, did you step in with your left foot or your right foot first?"
"I..."
How was he supposed to answer that?
He knew in his heart that Su Yu was still holding a grudge over the time he called the police to arrest her for soliciting a male escort.
"Sister, I had no choice at the time. I was just trying to save you! Just tell me, did I succeed in saving you or not!"
Lin Xiao straightened his back.
He put on a look of righteous indignation—or rather, acting righteous even when he wasn't!
"Oh, then I really should thank you, my good brother."
Su Yu stood up and stretched slightly.
Immediately after, she pulled out a small pink whip from somewhere and casually flicked it in the air a couple of times.
Lin Xiao was stunned and instinctively took two steps back. "No, Sister, we're all decent people in this family. How do you have something like this?"
"It was a gift from a Rich Woman client. She said it doesn't hurt when you hit someone with it. It felt quite handy to hold, and I felt like I might need it today, so I took it out."
Su Yu was quite straightforward, with an inexplicable seriousness in her eyes.
Lin Xiao didn't even want to complain about why anyone would give something like that as a gift.
To ease the atmosphere, he squeezed a smile onto his face: "Sister, this swimming is purely competitive, not a prop race! We don't need whipping..."
"Fine, then you try it first. If you perform well, I won't whip you."
Su Yu lifted her chin, signaling that Lin Xiao could begin.
"Sister, let's agree then: if I perform well, you can't lay a hand on me..."
Lin Xiao was still uneasy.
But before he could finish, Su Yu lifted her long leg and kicked him directly into the swimming pool.
Lin Xiao was still confident in his Superpower and wanted to show off his master-level swimming skills.
He hoped that after watching, his third sister would deeply realize that with his level, he didn't need training!
He would swim if he said he would!
Lin Xiao did a dive and plunged into the water!
Must admit, this prop card was really useful.
In the water, he felt an unprecedented sense of freedom. He felt no resistance at all and rushed directly to the opposite bank.
After a handsome turn, he rushed back.
Emerging from the water, he found that Su Yu was actually dumbfounded.
"Sister, is this your first time seeing someone swim so fast?"
"Hmm, it is the first time."
Su Yu nodded slowly, the corners of her mouth twitching slightly. "First time seeing a Doggy Paddle swim this fast!"
Heaven knows how shocked she was just now!
Lin Xiao's movements were so standard that from a distance, one might think a puppy had wandered into the pool.
And an exceptionally agile puppy at that!
The speed was even more astonishing, just like having a turbo installed on his butt!
Lin Xiao was also confused.
He slowly entered the water again and tried swimming a few strokes.
Watching his arms paddling the water very skillfully, he realized that something was really wrong.
Even if he were stupid, he would have guessed where the problem lay by now.
"System! Come out here!"
"System! How dare you screw me over!"
...
After roaring for a long time, the system's faint voice finally came from his mind.
[Host, just tell me if it's master-level swimming skill or not?]
[Besides, the prop card indicated the swimming style; it's you who didn't see it.]
Lin Xiao only then noticed that there was indeed a line of super small text on the master-level swimming card.
"Note: Doggy Paddle."
Lin Xiao felt like he was fainting over and over again.
But he was also glad he found out early; otherwise, if he had revealed it during the school sports meet, he would never be able to show his face in public again!
Standing by the pool, Su Yu heard bits and pieces of Lin Xiao's inner thoughts.
She had originally thought that Lin Xiao grew up in the countryside and only knew this kind of wild style.
Regardless, the swimming speed was quite fast; he must have practiced hard, which could be considered diligent and hardworking.
Unexpectedly, he was actually using some kind of skill card?
Although she didn't know what that was, it definitely wasn't anything proper!
She hated people who didn't keep their feet on the ground and liked to take shortcuts!
So she took out the small whip again and lashed it directly onto Lin Xiao's butt.
"A-Xiao, if you don't want to embarrass yourself in the competition, you better practice properly for me!"
"Ah, practice, I'll definitely practice properly!"
Lin Xiao, of course, knew that his current situation was unfavorable.
The system certainly wouldn't give him any other skill cards; he had to rely on himself and couldn't be careless anymore.
However, that said, the place where he was hit by the small whip didn't hurt; it actually felt tingly and numb. No wonder so many people have such strange hobbies nowadays...
While his mind was wandering, Su Yu had already jumped into the water.
With one hand, she stretched out his Doggy Paddle arms, and with the other, she pressed to open up his shoulders.
However, perhaps because the level of this swimming card was too high, correcting it was indeed quite difficult.
Su Yu's attitude was very stern.
Once he did something wrong, she would kick him.
Unfortunately, since this was in the water, most of the force was dispersed.
The actual force of the kick was very small, soft and fluffy, just like a massage.
Lin Xiao gradually found the pattern and started making mistakes in different ways.
It just so happened that he had been having back pain recently, so he let his third sister act as a masseuse to loosen his muscles and bones.
[Hey, yes, right there.]
[Not bad, not bad, this pressure is just right.]
[Nice!]
Hearing Lin Xiao's inner thoughts, Su Yu was absolutely furious.
"A-Xiao, if you don't correct yourself properly, don't blame me for starting a prop race!"
Saying this, she was about to go back to the shore to get the small whip.
"Hey? Don't, I'll practice properly, really, I'll practice properly!"
Lin Xiao hurriedly stopped her.
But in the scuffle, he accidentally hooked the strap of his third sister's swimsuit.
And then, he pulled it off...
The air instantly froze.
Lin Xiao reacted quickly and covered his eyes immediately. "Sorry! Sister, I didn't mean it! I didn't see anything! I really didn't see anything!"
"Lin Xiao!!"
A roar echoed over the Lin residence.
Accompanied by wails and pleas for mercy, it lingered for a long time, ringing endlessly in the ears.
