"I'll see you at the Wahl golf course at three in the afternoon." Sheng Yun immediately agreed.
At three in the afternoon, I was wearing a pink sportswear and Zhou Yihai was wearing a black sportswear. We arrived at the Walther Golf Field on time.
When we arrived at the golf course, Xu Changsheng and Sheng Yun were sparring. I pretended to chat with Zhou Yihai to avoid this awkwardness. I didn't want to be caught off guard, so a white golf ball flew towards my face!
By the time I realized it, the ball was almost upon my face. At this moment, Sheng Yun, who was standing not far away, shouted, "Shubei!"
Because of his shout, I was startled for a moment. I subconsciously tilted my head, and the golf ball flew past my ear. It was a close call. If it wasn't for Sheng Yun calling out my name, this ball would have hit my nose directly. Judging from the speed and impact, it must have hurt a lot.
"Are you okay?" Zhou Yihai asked hurriedly.
I shook my head and saw that under the great sun, Sheng Yun's face was ashen white, while Xu Changsheng, holding the long pole in his hand, looked at Sheng Yun sullenly and then gave me a fierce look.
"I'm fine." I sat down on the reclining chair to one side, feeling a little flustered.
Xu Changsheng grunted unhappily. He didn't apologize nor did he say anything. He turned around and said to Sheng Yun, "Yun, it's your turn."
I sat on the chair and watched Sheng Yun standing there with the long pole in his hand. He was tall and straight, wearing a white sports coat and a golf cap. He looked so sunny and handsome.
However … This strike unexpectedly missed!
The position was cool and beautiful, but the ball did not move at all.
This huge contrast made me laugh out loud out of instinct! Presumably infected by my laughter, Zhou Yihai could not help but smile!
Sheng Yun's expression immediately sank. He turned around and looked at me angrily, then said coldly: "What are you laughing at, you want to compete with me?"
"How can Shubei's ball skills compare with Director Sheng?" Zhou Yihai quickly took over the conversation, and then used his eyes to signal me to be modest.
"It's fine, let's compete then." Ignoring Zhou Yihai's lazy expression, I confidently walked over. When I passed Xu Changsheng, I intentionally hit his shoulder hard, returning the blow with a tooth for a tooth.
"Xu Shubei, you didn't even greet this uncle of mine when you saw him?" Xu Changsheng said with a pale face after getting hit by me.
"Since when has Boss Xu ever treated me as a niece? Don't you think those words are funny?" I looked at Xu Changsheng and said coldly.
"Alright, you go first." Seeing this, Sheng Yun hurriedly said to me. He seemed to know something and didn't want us to argue.
I felt that Sheng Yun's attitude towards me had a slight change. Could it be that I said something when I was drunk that night and touched him? However, when he thought about it, he felt that it was impossible. A thousand-year-old ice mountain like him, if he could be affected by my words, then he wouldn't be me!
"Alright." I took the club from him and positioned myself.
At that moment, that golf ball in my eyes and I have irreconcilable hatred for Xu Changsheng, I waved hard, the ball into the hole.
I made a triumphant gesture of excitement and smiled at Sheng Yun. I wiped my eyes and almost thought I was mistaken.
"It's my turn." When Sheng Yun saw me looking at him, he immediately retracted the smile on his face. Then, he took the baseball bat from my hand and spoke with an imposing manner.
This time, he also entered the cave, and our fighting spirit was immediately roused. On the other side, Xu Changsheng and Zhou Yihai were also sparring. The two of them were playing ball while chatting. The more they chatted, the more my heart started to race.
"Don't worry, I'm here. He won't do anything to you." At this moment, Sheng Yun suddenly whispered in my ear.
I looked up at him in astonishment. "Is the sun coming out from the west?" Or did Director Sheng's personality suddenly undergo a huge change? "
"Xu Shubei, I'm too lazy to tell you." Sheng Yun gave me a supercilious look before continuing to swing the ball arrogantly.
I felt that he was intentionally or unintentionally cutting off the distance between me and Xu Changsheng, but why would he do that? Could it be that he doesn't want me to be hurt? Impossible, he would not be so good.
While I was swinging my staff, I saw Xu Changsheng and Zhou Yihai chatting excitedly on one side and Sheng Yun's uncertainty on the other. I was so distracted that I was unable to concentrate on playing that I was barely able to swing a few shots in a row.
"Xu Shubei, can you focus a little?" You dare to laugh at me if you don't have any skill in football? " Sheng Yun looked at me with disdain, as if he was unhappy with my earlier laughter.
"It was the truth. Why do you have to keep it in your heart?" While playing casually, I looked at Zhou Yihai and the others.
"Alright, you don't have the mood to fight anymore. Rest." Seeing this, Sheng Yun passed the bat to a caddy at the side and lightly said to me. He turned around and walked towards the lounge. His expression returned to his usual alienation, leaving me alone on the spot.
"He's really sick." I muttered to myself in my heart. Then, I looked towards Zhou Yihai and Xu Changsheng's direction. Suddenly, Xu Changsheng shot me a sinister look.
I was alarmed and immediately headed towards their direction. When I walked to Zhou Yihai's side, Zhou Yihai suddenly said to me, "Shubei, CEO Xu is interested in working with us to fund the purchase of a patent for the new engine. We will work with them to develop it, what do you think?"
Not good!
My heart skipped a beat. "Is it the one that was recently invented by an inventor? "I heard that the patent has been bought by an enterprise at a high price. Could it be …"
Naturally, I looked towards Xu Changsheng. When my gaze met with his, I immediately understood. Needless to say, the Xu family was the buyer behind the scenes.
After the inventor explained and experimented with the engine, countless companies expressed their willingness to pay a high price for the patent for research and development. We had also participated in the bidding, but when we met to discuss it, we felt that the technology was not yet mature, that we would encounter more problems in development, and that the bidding price was much higher than we had expected, so we decided against it. Unexpectedly, the Xu family was the final buyer.
"Yes, CEO Xu has foresight. He had long since bought the patents on this engine. If this engine can be successfully developed and mass-produced, the benefits will be considerable... " Zhou Yihai's words were full of flattery, he looked at me and said.
"For a matter like this, does Director Zhou even need to ask his subordinate for advice?" Xu Changsheng looked at Zhou Yihai and said with a dissatisfied expression, "However, there are many companies that want to cooperate with us, so it is not certain who will be the final one."
Zhou Yihai's expression froze when he heard that. As soon as I saw him, I knew that he was moved.
At this moment, Sheng Yun came out of the lounge and walked directly towards us.
