Chapter 863 - Golf Course

The most humane business belonging to the Gu Family was their recreational clubs.

Old Mr. Wen specially asked Wen Xinya to accompany him to a game of golf with his friends from the upper-class circle, and she naturally had no objections.

Wen Xinya was dressed in a light blue cap and a leisure outfit consisting of a T-shirt and casual shorts. Along the way, she would accompany Old Mr. Wen while serving him and his friends some water and towels. The few elderly folks were rather pleased with her.

“Xinya, do you know how to play golf? Would you like to have a game with us old fogies? It’s getting a little boring with only us playing with each other,” said Old Mr. Li, who was a little older than Old Mr. Wen.

They knew that she was not a simple girl, for she had managed to get rid of the scheming Xia Ruya, who was difficult to deal with, and earn the respect of Old Mr. Wen within just three years of returning to the Wen Family.

Wen Xinya smiled and said, “In that case, I’ll embarrass myself. Grandpas, please don’t make fun of me later!”

At this moment, Old Mr. Xiao entered slowly with a golf club in hand and Xiao Chengyu by his side.

Upon sight of Old Mr. Xiao, Old Mr. Wen shot Wen Xinya a glance and an inexplicable expression formed on his face.

Old Mr. Li, Old Mr. Zhang and Old Mr. Zhu were surprised to see Old Mr. Xiao. They didn’t expect him to still be in the mood to come out for a game of golf even after being attacked by the Old Mr. Wen.

Everyone had ideas of their own.

Wen Xinya paused in her actions and stood beside Old Mr. Wen.

Wen Xinya had her guard up.

Old Mr. Xiao greeted the others and introduced Xiao Chengyu to the business elites who were highly respected, though they had already gone into early retirement. Xiao Chengyu’s outstanding achievements had also impressed them.

Rather heartened about Xiao Chengyu’s performance, Mold Mr. Xiao shifted his gaze to Old Mr. Wen and said, “Old Wen, it’s been long since we last met, but you’re still as healthy as ever! I heard that you’ve been rather interested in charity lately. I’m not trying to criticize you but… you’re already old in your years and yet, you’re still so bothered about creating a good image for your family. Why don’t you just relax and enjoy your retirement? Us old fogies can’t take any more hardship.”

Old Mr. Xiao said those words in a sarcastic tone with a grin on his face. He was just trying to mock Old Mr. Wen for making atonements at the eleventh hour, after having sinned too much during his younger days. He felt that Old Mr. Wen was better off resting at home.

Everyone else pretended to be unaware of the hidden meanings in their words.

Even Wen Xinya was standing calmly beside Old Mr. Wen with a smile on her face.

Old Mr. Xiao turned to look at Wen Xinya and exclaimed calmly, “Old Wen, this must be that granddaughter of yours whom you painstakingly reunited with after she led a wandering life for fifteen years!”

It was Old Mr. Xiao’s first time staring at her so carefully. She was dressed in a casual outfit and her skin was a little red because of the sun. Her eyes were large and glittery, and she exuded a youthful aura. It was hard to imagine that she was the one who caused the Xiao Family to end up in such a terrible state.

Being geniuses, all of them understood what he meant.

It was particular for Old Mr. Xiao, who subconsciously turned to take a glance at Xiao Chengyu.

Old Mr. Wen gazed at Wen Xinya benevolently and said, “Xinya, greet Chairman Xiao.”

Wen Xinya remained polite throughout. Upon hearing her grandfather’s instruction, she strode forward and greeted. “Hello, Chairman Xiao!”
