Chapter 58 [58]
encourage
A peacock with its tail spread out everywhere.
In Lu Mingxiao's view, this perfectly matched Yin Xingwei's description.
How he showed his affection and charm was related to his private life, so Lu Mingxiao naturally would not ask.
But he stared intently at Xiaoyue, ignoring the fact that she was beside him. Who could tolerate such a thing? He was determined to assert his dominance.
Yin Xingwei's impression of Lu Mingxiao was that he was a powerful figure in the business world, and this was the first time she had ever seen him protecting women.
He had received a Western education and originally intended to show his sincerity with a kiss on the hand, but given Mr. Lu's current temperament, he would cut off his hand without hesitation.
Okay, it's first love, I can understand.
Yin Xing withdrew his gaze from Luo Qingyue and looked at Lu Mingxiao.
"Why don't you give every man in the world an eye mask? It's just a greeting, don't act like you're stealing your soul, you stingy person."
Lu Mingxiao held Luo Qingyue's hand tightly without showing any mercy.
"I can tell whether it's a normal greeting or malicious intent."
Generally speaking, only people with whom you have a good relationship will bring out Lu Mingxiao's sharp tongue.
Luo Qingyue smiled and said, "Thank you, President Yin, for personally organizing this welcome ceremony for us. You've worked hard."
Yin Xing bent down, his line of sight level with Luo Qingyue's.
"Please call me James."
He narrowed his eyes and smiled broadly. It was indeed an unusual expression.
Luo Qingyue's smile faded, and she gripped Lu Mingxiao's sleeve tightly, gesturing for him to hurry up and leave. Lu Mingxiao rolled his eyes at Yin Xingwei, shoved him aside, put his arm around Luo Qingyue's shoulder, and walked into the reception hall.
Their love is truly stronger than gold.
Yin Xingwei watched their backs as they walked away, a picture of loving affection and a perfect match.
After all, he had been among flowers for too long, so the sight of holding someone's hand actually moved him a little.
The reception hall is a separate, special-shaped building with a strong sense of design.
Walking straight through the golf course, Lu Mingxiao picked up his golf equipment and, together with Luo Qingyue, got into a golf cart and headed to the green field.
The golf carts have two seats; Luo Qingyue and Lu Mingxiao share one, while Yin Xing has a separate cart.
Lu Mingxiao was steering the car, driving on the road outside the lawn, introducing the layout of the venue to Luo Qingyue.
"This area is called the green, and it has holes. Getting the ball onto the green is the first priority."
The spot where the pole is standing is where the hole is. Luo Qingyue turned her head to observe carefully.
"The grass on the green is younger than other grasses and looks more delicate. Does that mean it's more susceptible to damage?"
Lu Mingxiao hummed, "So it requires more meticulous maintenance, and the cost will be higher."
Lakes of varying sizes are situated on either side of the undulating grassy slopes.
Lu Mingxiao said it was a "water obstacle," and that if you accidentally hit it, you would have to take a penalty shot.
Luo Qingyue was puzzled: "If I play two more strokes, my score will be higher, isn't that a good thing?"
Lu Mingxiao patiently explained, "Golf doesn't count points. Instead, it's based on strokes. The cumulative strokes for each hole are added up. The fewer strokes the total, the better."
Having learned something new, Luo Qingyue said "Oh": "Generally, how many strokes are considered excellent?"
A normal game consists of eighteen holes, and Lu Mingxiao answered "seventy".
"This is the level of a top professional player. My lowest score is 75, and I usually score around 80."
For an amateur, he can be considered a master.
Luo Qingyue looked at him with reverence as she approached the tee box. Lu Mingxiao parked the car and picked up his golf equipment.
They wore matching white tracksuits today because they were going to exercise.
They wore the same tops, but Luo Qingyue wore a skirt and trousers, while Lu Mingxiao wore trousers.
Luo Qingyue turned around, and Yin Xingwei's golf cart slowly approached.
A beautiful woman dressed in the same black tracksuit as him appeared beside him.
No wonder she didn’t see Yin Xingwei’s car just now. She thought he had lost her. It turned out that he had gone to pick someone up.
The car is driven by a beautiful woman, and the golf clubs are held by a beautiful woman.
Yin Xingwei got off the car empty-handed and walked towards them accompanied by a beautiful woman.
Yin Xingwei introduced the beauty as Anna, who had blonde hair and blue eyes and seemed to have foreign ancestry.
With a pretty face and a hot body, Luo Qingyue knew without any further explanation that she must be his new love.
They walked to the center of the lawn together, Luo Qingyue holding Lu Mingxiao's hand.
With his arm around Anna's waist, Yin Xingwei looked at the loving couple and said, "Since Miss Luo is here, how about we play a 2v2 game, mainly for fun?"
Entertainment Bureau, that sounds interesting.
Being in the same group as Lu Mingxiao, Luo Qingyue naturally wouldn't be disappointed: "Okay, tell me about the competition format."
With various 2V2 gameplay options, Yin Xingwei looked at Lu Mingxiao and said, "Let's use 'Best Position,' which is more suitable for beginners."
Lu Mingxiao agreed, arrived at the teeing ground, took out two cues, handed one to Luo Qingyue, and explained the rules to her.
"I'll take a shot, then you take a shot, and we'll see whose landing spot is better and closer to the hole, which will be our tee shot for the next frame. For example, if you hit the green on your tee shot, while mine lands near the lake, then we'll take your shot in the next frame. We'll keep going back and forth, choosing the best lie until the ball goes in the hole. It's easy to understand, right?"
Lu Mingxiao always explains unfamiliar words in a very simple and easy-to-understand way.
The "best position" has a high margin for error and the chances of winning will increase accordingly. Luo Qingyue understood this, and Lu Mingxiao then began a beginner's tutorial.
On the serving table, Lu Mingxiao bent down and placed a ball on the tee.
Luo Qingyue was in front, and he was behind her. He first explained to her how to grip the bar and her stance.
He then grasped Luo Qingyue's hand and aligned the clubface with the ball: "Don't tense your body too much, relax your shoulders, lift your hands back, and then push them forward, like this, to send the ball out."
Lu Mingxiao guided her step by step through the movements, and the ball flew through the air in a beautiful arc the moment the club was swung.
Anna watched them from the side with an envious look in her eyes: "Mr. Lu is handsome, rich, and so patient with his girlfriend. I almost want to be Miss Luo."
Yin Xingwei put his arm around Anna and pinched her waist: "You've really grown bold, daring to praise other men in front of me."
Yin Xing doesn't get angry at women, but that doesn't necessarily mean he has a good temper.
It’s just that he is good at using the calmest words to say the harshest things.
Anna comforted him, saying sweetly, "I want to be taught like this by you too."
Luo Qingyue practiced alone, missed her first shot, and looked dejected with a drooping lip.
Lu Mingxiao hugged her to comfort her, carefully analyzed the problem, and patiently practiced with her again.
"I can't do what Mr. Lu does."
Yin Xingwei lowered his head and sucked Anna's ear, "I will just bring my golf clubs, get a themed room, and treat you well tonight."
She was overjoyed inside, but still maintained a shy expression on her face.
Anna punched Yin Xingwei's chest: "Hateful."
As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Qingyue successfully hit the first ball and looked at Lu Mingxiao with full fighting spirit: "I feel that I am so strong now."
"You can play as you like, there's no need to put too much pressure on yourself."
Lu Mingxiao helped Luo Qingyue straighten her tilted sun hat and straightened her ponytail. "Have fun and enjoy yourself. Leave the rest to me."
"My happiness and enjoyment is winning! We are a team, and I want to contribute my own strength!"
Luo Qingyue raised her hand, and Lu Mingxiao gave her a high five, both of them getting excited.
Yin Xingwei: "We'll play eight holes and calculate the total score. Whoever loses gets on the ground and barks like a dog three times and posts it on their social media. It's publicly visible and can't be set to private."
The scene was too bizarre. Luo Qingyue paused for two seconds, then asked hesitantly, "Can I refuse?"
"I don't bully women."
Yin Xingwei looked at Lu Mingxiao and said, "Let him send it."
Lu Mingxiao was a little unhappy: "It seems like we are bound to lose."
"that is."
Luo Qingyue agreed, holding Lu Mingxiao's arm, "Who's afraid of who? Come if you want."
This is a battle of honor. In order to ensure fairness and justice, Yin Xingwei specially invited a referee.
After drawing lots, Yin Xingwei and Anna played first, while Luo Qingyue and Lu Mingxiao retreated to the side.
I believe Yin Xingwei and Anna both saw how good her level was during practice.
The opponents were still preparing. Luo Qingyue expressed her curiosity and asked Lu Mingxiao how they were doing.
"This is my first time meeting Anna, so I don't know her well. And Yin Xingwei—"
Lu Mingxiao paused for a moment, and Luo Qingyue blurted out: "Superior skills, easily defeating everyone present."
"How did you figure that out?"
Lu Mingxiao chuckled, "He's clearly bad at it but loves to play."
The stadium is his, so it shouldn’t be that serious.
Luo Qingyue was skeptical, and Anna hit the first ball first.
Judging from his stance and grip, he looked quite professional.
Anna swung the club, and Luo Qingyue held her breath and concentrated on following the trajectory of the ball. Unexpectedly, it crossed the lake and went directly onto the green.
In comparison, Yin Xingwei was far inferior; the ball landed at most five or six meters from the tee box, moving in a pure straight line.
"Anna is amazing!"
Luo Qingyue first praised her, then spitted, "She is a professional, right? No wonder Yin Xingwei brought her here to set up this kind of scheme to control our army."
"Very likely."
Lu Mingxiao watched their second round, "But with Yin Xingwei holding her back, there's no need to worry."
"After all, they have experience; even if they're not the best, they're still better than me."
Luo Qingyue looked thoughtful. "You think he's a noob and likes to play around. I think as long as he can hit the ball, he's already amazing."
According to the referee's record, Yin Xingwei and Anna's final score was thirty-two.
The rest area was not far from the green. They didn't come back. Instead, they ordered drinks and sat down to wait for Luo Qingyue and Lu Mingxiao's results.
This was Luo Qingyue's first round of golf.
With the determination to win, he rubbed his hands and walked up to the tee with Lu Mingxiao.
Lu Mingxiao leaned over and helped her put a ball on the tee.
Luo Qingyue held the club, got into position, and stood in front of the ball.
Lu Mingxiao instructed: "Just like I taught you just now, use not just your arms, but your whole body."
Luo Qingyue nodded and took two deep breaths.
She aimed the butt of the club at the ball, swung her hand, and used all her strength.
It was a very standard movement, and Lu Mingxiao was very satisfied, confident that there would be no problems.
To his surprise, the ball didn't fly away, but the stick flew far away. He was slightly stunned, and then he heard Luo Qingyue's wide-eyed scream.
Lu Mingxiao ran forward quickly and picked up the golf club for her.
“It’s okay. Accidents always happen on the course. Yin Xingwei once had his club break in two.”
Luo Qingyue took the club and asked, "He broke it himself, right?"
Lu Mingxiao affirmed, "He was so angry about losing to me, but he couldn't punch me, so he had to take it out on the club."
Luo Qingyue said "Oh": "It's just the first shot. I don't believe every shot after this will be like this."
Lu Mingxiao stood on the tee and, like Anna, hit the green with one shot, only one meter away from the hole.
It's so close, I can get it in with just my hands. Luo Qingyue, confident, hit the ball again, aiming for the hole. Hitting the green was different from before. Because the turf was so precious, it couldn't be hit with force; it could only be hit gently, like a blade.
This time, she didn't throw the club away.
However, the ball did not enter the hole, but circled around and rolled down the slope like it was going on a tour.
"..."
In the next few games, Luo Qingyue either flew the ball into the woods or dropped it into the water.
Although as a novice, her goal was to succeed as long as she could hit the ball, but the trajectory of the ball was the opposite of what she imagined, she still felt a little frustrated. What's more, she and Lu Mingxiao were a team. She didn't make any contribution and relied entirely on him to cover the losses. In the end, she just squatted beside the ball, too lazy to waste time and left everything to Lu Mingxiao.
Lu Mingxiao knew that she was a little upset.
The last ball was two meters away from the hole. He pulled Luo Qingyue up and brought her to the ball, encouraging her: "Xiaoyue, believe in yourself, you can do it."
"I can't even get in one meter, and you expect me to get in two meters?"
Luo Qingyue shook her head, took two steps back, her face full of resistance, "I can't, you go quickly, we can rest after you finish this round."
"If I say you can, you definitely can."
Lu Mingxiao stood behind Luo Qingyue, holding her hand and gently swinging the club. "Do you feel the approximate strength?"
Lu Mingxiao resumed his teaching, and his gentle words comforted Luo Qingyue considerably.
Not wanting to disappoint Lu Mingxiao, she walked to the ball, spread her legs, slightly bent her knees, and raised the cue stick.
"Yes, that's it."
Lu Mingxiao said, "Don't be afraid, Xiaoyue, use the method I just taught you to hit the ball out."
Luo Qingyue stared at the hole, not daring to breathe. With a slight wave of her hand, the ball rolled forward.
Her gaze followed the ball's trajectory as it went into the hole with pinpoint accuracy. She immediately dropped her club and leaped into Lu Mingxiao's arms, overjoyed and excited.
"I did it, Xiao!"
"I'm so excited, thank you!"
Lu Mingxiao stroked her head gently and said softly, "I know that my Xiaoyue is the best."
The game was over and it was time for lunch.
Luo Qingyue and Lu Mingxiao's total score was 28 strokes.
According to the agreement, Yin Xingwei was going to post a video of himself imitating a dog's barking on his WeChat Moments.
The golf course has its own restaurant. After sitting in the private room and ordering the meal, Luo Qingyue felt the joy of victory.
"Mr. Yin, has the video been sent? Do you need me to film it for you on the spot?"
At the round table, Lu Mingxiao separated Luo Qingyue and Yin Xingwei.
Yin Xingwei handed the phone to Lu Mingxiao and motioned him to give it to Luo Qingyue.
Luo Qingyue opened the video and saw Anna.
She was wearing a maid outfit, kneeling on the floor, and barked "Woof, woof, woof" three times.
The scene always felt a bit inappropriate for children. Luo Qingyue asked, "Didn't you say you wouldn't bully women?"
Yin Xingwei pointed at Lu Mingxiao and said as a matter of course: "I said I won't bully his woman, but I didn't say I won't bully my own woman."
"..."
One party is willing to give, and the other is willing to receive; what can others say?
Luo Qingyue was speechless and could only silently curse "bastard" in her heart.
There were only three of them in the box, and Anna was not there.
Luo Qingyue guessed that Yin Xingwei had something important to discuss with Lu Mingxiao. Even the entrance to the private room was heavily guarded by Yin Xingwei's bodyguards. It was said that not even a bird could fly into this place.
The dishes were served one by one, and Yin Xingwei poured red wine into Lu Mingxiao's glass.
In that case, Luo Qingyue took on the task of driving the return trip and chose orange juice.
Yin Xingwei raised his glass to toast them, then looked at Lu Mingxiao and got back to the topic.
"I have some information here about Long Hua and Shen Hao. Are you interested in listening?"
