"Good, good, good! She is a smart and good child." Old Master Xiao looked at the girl in front of him again without leaving a trace. She had beautiful eyebrows, clear eyes, a calm face, and a brilliant temperament. Such charm was inherited from the Mo family. She was indeed worthy of being taught by Mr. Mo himself. Although Cheng Yu was excellent, he lacked talent and spirit compared with her.

Thinking of this, he frowned slightly. He couldn't quite figure out this girl.

After receiving the praise, Wen Xinya showed a genuine smile on her face, while Old Master Wen laughed happily.

Wen Xinya finally understood what it meant for people in the circle to appear but not be in harmony with each other.

A few people talked for a while, and the atmosphere was not awkward.

Mr. Li smiled faintly and said, "Xinya girl, your shot was interrupted by Chairman Xiao and Young Master Xiao just now, you are not allowed to blame it."

Mr. Zhang also smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes. If you hadn't mentioned it, Old Li, I would have almost forgotten about it. Come on, come on, play ball."

Mr. Zhu also said, "I almost forgot about this when I was interrupted just now."

Wen Xinya naturally would not refuse, and said with a smile: "The grandfathers are just thinking about making me look bad. As a junior, I can entertain the grandfathers."

As she spoke, she winked at them and her witty remarks were not at all unfamiliar. This won the favor of several elderly people and everyone started laughing.

Wen Xinya walked into the court, gripped the club, adjusted her stance, and soon assumed a standard playing stance.

Grandpa Li smiled and said, "Look at this posture, it's very professional. I can tell at a glance that this girl must have been modest just now. I'm waiting to see how far this shot can go."

Wen Xinya got into position and swung the club. The ball on the grass instantly rose up and flew high into the distance!

Everyone craned their necks to look into the distance.

Old Master Xiao was the first to comment: "What a pity for this shot. The posture was perfect, but the fire was still a little lacking. It didn't even go into the tenth hole."

Old Master Zhu laughed and said, "Hahahaha! I see that Xinya's skills are not very good. She hasn't been learning for long. Golf is a difficult sport. It's not bad that she can achieve such a result in such a short time. She just needs to practice more."

With Mr. Zhu taking the lead in speaking for Wen Xinya, the rest of the people followed suit.

Wen Xinya smiled gratefully at Mr. Zhu.

Mr. Zhu was aware of the elegance of the piano and responded with a gentle smile.

And seeing how she was able to handle herself so easily in front of this group of old guys, and how she won Mr. Zhu's favor so quickly, Old Master Wen felt very comforted.

Mr. Xiao wanted to take advantage of Xiao Xiao's warmth and elegance, but was saved by Mr. Zhu. He looked at Xiao Chengyu beside him and said, "Chengyu, it's a rare opportunity to meet these seniors in the circle. You should also go up and play a round to show your ugliness and let the seniors give you some pointers."

Xiao Chengyu smiled and said, "Excuse me, grandfathers."

After a few pleasantries, Xiao Chengyu picked up the club and started playing!

Xiao Chengyu played golf really well. This shot hit the fifteenth hole directly, which made several elderly people except Grandpa Wen praise him.

Xiao Chengyu was quite smug as he looked at Wen Xinya. Although his eyes were calm, there was a hint of smug provocation between his brows. Ever since the first time at Zhou Tianyu's birthday party, he had not liked Wen Xinya very much.

He is not a fool. His grandfather and father implicitly compare him with Wen Xinya, which makes him very unhappy, so he also dislikes Xinya. In addition, the Xiao family has fallen into Wen Xinya's hands time and time again, so his impression of Wen Xinya is that she is scheming, so he hates her very much.

Old Master Xiao smiled and said, "Girl from the Wen family, Chengyu has always been good at playing golf. If you don't mind, you can let him play with you."

Mr. Wen looked at Wen Xinya beside him and said with a smile: "Why don't you thank Chairman Xiao quickly?"

Wen Xinya looked at Mr. Xiao and smiled faintly, "Thank you, Chairman Xiao. I will definitely ask you for advice when I have the chance." Then she looked at Xiao Chengyu and said faintly, "When the time comes, please feel free to give me some advice, Mr. Xiao."

His neither humble nor arrogant attitude and his calm and polite demeanor made several people in the classroom look at him with admiration.

Grandpa Wen looked at Grandpa Xiao and sighed, "Second Master Xiao plays the ball well! It's a pity for Xinya. She has been back to the Wen family for three years. She is either busy studying with her grandfather or busy with her studies. She also has to follow me to learn about business. It's me who is too strict with her on weekdays. I restrict her too much and leave her no space for leisure and entertainment."

Clearly these were words of emotion, but when spoken aloud, they carried a certain meaning.

Old Master Xiao understood as soon as he heard it. He wanted to use Chengyu's good golf skills to save Wen Xinya and the old man Wen Zhihang's face. He didn't expect that the old man Wen Zhihang was so embarrassed. He directly used Wen Xinya's usual diligence and eagerness to learn to imply Chengyu's lack of knowledge.

After hearing this, Xiao Chengyu was slightly stunned, and then he reacted. He smiled with some dissatisfaction and said, "The way to learn is to combine work and rest. I also learned golf in my spare time."

There is only one meaning between his words, that Wen Xinya is dull in talent, and only by relying on unremitting diligence can he play well in his spare time, but Wen Xinya has played badly for a year. It is obvious who is better at a glance.

Xiao Chengyu was feeling proud of his response, but when he noticed his grandfather's eyes filled with hidden warnings, he was a little confused for a moment.

Then I noticed that the faces of the people who were chatting and laughing just now turned pale.

Especially Mr. Wen, who didn't even look at him, but talked in a low voice with Mr. Zhu beside him.

Wen Xinya just glanced at him lightly, with a hint of mockery in her clear eyes. He immediately realized that the elders were talking and it was not his turn to interrupt. It was impolite and uneducated for him to interrupt like this.

Suddenly, Xiao Chengyu felt embarrassed and his cheeks turned red.

Old Master Xiao looked unhappy because Xiao Chengyu had made such a humiliating scene. He quickly laughed to help his grandson out of the embarrassment: "Hahaha! Chengyu is a smart kid, but he lacks worldly wisdom and experience. I'm sorry to make you laugh."

Xiao Chengyu followed his grandfather with his head down.

A few people said a few words indifferently and let the matter go, but the performance of the young master of the Xiao family and the girl of the Wen family made the difference obvious.

Old Master Xiao looked at Wen Xinya with a gentle expression: "The Xiao family and the Wen family are both from the four major families. Although we don't have much business dealings, we still have some friendship. Why don't you just call me Grandpa Xiao!"

That's what they say, but they may not mean it.

Old Master Wen just smiled and said nothing, and did not come forward to help her out.

Li, Zhang and Zhu were all shocked. The Xiao family and the Wen family had just experienced a dispute. In such a situation, if one did not handle it well, it would be bad to let Wen Xinya be rude for no reason. But Old Wen actually let it go, which was very interesting.

Wen Xinya smiled faintly and said, "Chairman Xiao really flatters me. I am young and ignorant. Young Master Xiao is older than me and is more considerate than me. I still need Young Master Xiao to lead me."

What she meant was that Xiao Chengyu was older than her, so she should put him first in everything. Xiao Chengyu didn't even call Old Man Wen "grandpa", so how dare she call him that? On the other hand, she was also hinting at Xiao Chengyu's impoliteness just now.

This sentence was a sharp thorn hidden in cotton. It not only responded to Mr. Xiao, but also slapped Xiao Chengyu in the face. This kind of character should not be underestimated.
