The Sole Male in the Girls’ Swimming Club

“Phew~”

I wiped the sweat off my forehead and let out a sigh.

The preparations before the swimming club’s training were perfectly complete. All I had to do was wait for the members to arrive for practice.

The swimming club at Taolisi High School was one of the most popular clubs. Not only because the school paid special attention to it, investing the most resources and hoping it would bring honor, but also because all the members were girls.

So, naturally, a rule was established when the club was first founded: outsiders unrelated to the swimming club were strictly forbidden from entering or watching the pool during training.

After all, no one wants their body, exposed in a swimsuit, to be secretly photographed or leered at by malicious people.

Moreover, as a strong club of the school, the swimming club had no student club manager; all administrative matters were handled by a dedicated advisor.

As for how I, a guy, joined the swimming club—it wasn’t to train with the members, since the club only accepted female members. Scenes like those in anime don’t happen in reality.

All of this was thanks to Ling Yan. Back then, to spend more time with her, I shamelessly begged the advisor, buttered up the members, and promised I wouldn’t look at them during training. With Ling Yan’s tacit approval, they reluctantly agreed.

But even though I joined, in a sense, I was just a handyman. The training-related tasks were handled by the advisor, while I mostly just moved equipment, prepared water and towels, and performed other simple chores.

But as long as I could stay by Ling Yan’s side and see her, I felt it was all worth it.

I hadn’t been sitting long in the rest area by the pool when the door connecting the pool and the changing room opened, and the club members appeared before me, all in their swimsuits.

I only glanced at them, then fixed my gaze on Ling Yan, who was at the center like the moon surrounded by stars.

Ling Yan was as beautiful as ever—her delicate, makeup-free face and her perfect figure, accentuated by the tight swimsuit, made it impossible for me to look away. Especially her full, firm chest and her long, toned thighs, which quickened my heartbeat.

I took a deep breath, suppressing the wild thoughts in my mind.

“Is everyone here? I’ve got everything ready. You can start training right away.”

I waved at the members as a greeting.

The members thanked me and then began their training.

After that, with nothing else to do, I started appreciating the members as they trained.

Indeed, girls in motion are the most captivating.

Amidst the splashes from training, their firm and smooth skin, honed by long-term exercise, and their vigorously swinging thighs and arms emitted an alluring sheen under the reflection of the water.

This beautiful sight was something only I could enjoy.

“Beeeep~ Good, you can take a break. Zhou Chen, I’ll leave it to you.”

After the first round of training, the advisor blew her whistle, signaling the members to stop. Then she greeted me and walked to a corner to start recording today’s training results.

And my work began.

I had to hand out water and towels one by one to the resting members. The swimming club’s training was intense; often, after a round, the members didn’t want to move but felt too embarrassed to bother the teacher. So my job was quite important to them. This was probably one of the reasons they let me join.

“Chenzi, my shoulders are so sore. Come give me a massage!”

“In that case, I want one too.”

“Me too…”

As I handed out water, the members joked with me, and I smiled and politely declined.

During my time helping in the swimming club, since I never did anything they disliked and my work satisfied them, I got along with them pretty well. You could say we had a good relationship.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t joke like that. But it was also because I was well-behaved. If I ever had any inappropriate intentions toward them, I’d probably be kicked out immediately. And if such a thing made Ling Yan dislike me, I absolutely couldn’t accept that.

So, even though I was surrounded by girls in swimsuits and their silvery laughter, which quickened my pulse, I steadied my mind and quickly walked toward Ling Yan, who was sitting by the pool chatting with a few girls.

When the members near Ling Yan saw me approaching, they winked at me with knowing smiles and left. They always did that, not wanting to disturb Ling Yan’s and my time alone. But in reality, Ling Yan and I had never really talked about anything intimate.

I handed the water bottle and towel to Ling Yan, who was sitting upright by the pool.

“Ling Yan, good work.”

“Mm, thanks.”

Ling Yan gently kicked the water with her feet, took the water and towel, then opened the bottle cap and started drinking.

Gulp, gulp…

Watching Ling Yan drink with her head tilted back, I swallowed hard.

Her fair, delicate neck and the droplets sliding down her smooth skin made it hard for me to look away. This scene felt somehow subtly… arousing.

Ling Yan downed half the bottle in one go, let out a sigh of satisfaction, and then looked up at me.

“Phew~ Hey, Zhou Chen, can you help me stretch?”

Here it was. In all the time we’d been together, Ling Yan and I had never done anything intimate—except for this. She was the one who initiated it. Probably, in her eyes, helping someone stretch wasn’t an intimate act.

So I wasn’t foolish enough to remind her. After all, deep down, I wanted to do these things with Ling Yan. That was my little, humble selfishness.

“Mm, I understand.”

I walked behind Ling Yan, who had spread her legs to stretch her lower body, and gently placed my hands on her back.

“Ling Yan, ready? I’m going to start pushing.”

“Mm, anytime.”

Hearing her soft reply, I slowly applied pressure, pushing down on her back.

Even though I had done this many times, honestly, I still couldn’t get used to it.

The warmth and softness I felt through her swimsuit under my palms, her wet hair casually scattered over her shoulders, and the faint fragrance emanating from her back all made my breathing heavier and my heart restless.

But I couldn’t let Ling Yan notice my agitation.

So I tried to slow my breathing and occasionally looked elsewhere.

However, I couldn’t close my ears. That was another reason I couldn’t get used to this.

“Mmm… Ah…”

I couldn’t help but look at Ling Yan, who was almost entirely pressed to the ground, as she let out soft moans that sounded both pained and pleasurable.

“Um, Ling Yan, I think that’s enough.”

Blood rushed to my head, and wild thoughts filled my mind. I couldn’t continue like this. But—

“…No, not yet. A little more…”

That was the problem. When I wanted to stop, Ling Yan wasn’t satisfied, and if I suggested using less force, she said it wouldn’t be effective.

Who could withstand this!

After the stretch, I looked at Ling Yan, whose face was slightly flushed, wiped the sweat from my forehead, and prepared to hunch over and go to the rest area to cool down.

“Ah, that felt good. Zhou Chen, can you stretch my legs too?”

Just as I was about to turn around, Ling Yan suddenly tugged at my shirt hem, her voice soft and pleading.

What was this? Usually, it ended here. Why was she saying this today?

I looked at Ling Yan’s long legs spread out on the ground—toned, elastic, shimmering faintly in the sunlight. If she were wearing stockings, it would be an absolute distraction.

So, stretching Ling Yan’s legs… I would definitely lose my composure.

“Um, Ling Yan, I’m feeling a bit tired, so let’s skip it.”

My heart was bleeding, but to keep Ling Yan from disliking me, I firmly refused.

“I see. Alright then, I’ll ask someone else.”

Seeing the slightly disappointed look on Ling Yan’s face, I felt a pang of guilt for refusing her request.

But it was necessary. This was the only way to keep Ling Yan from feeling troubled or growing to hate me.
