Chapter 1020
Back at the dining table, Tang Zhou gnawed on a pig trotter as he spoke, “Have you guys heard? This afternoon, the famous golf master Ogden encountered a golf prodigy at the golf course. He wanted to take the kid as a disciple, but he actually got rejected!”
Ye Xingguang asked curiously, “Master Ogden? I know him; when I interned at KOCO, the station sent me to interview him, but his assistant told me he was not available. I called his assistant for three days straight, and in the end, I still didn’t get the interview. That old man really has airs; who’s this remarkable kid who didn’t give him face?”
“I’m curious too! A few years ago, when my golf was lousy, I sought lessons from Master Ogden. He told me I had no talent, which totally pissed me off. How could I be talentless? Now that he’s been rejected, it feels so good! Roar roar roar, if I find out who that kid is, I’m definitely going to buy a whole box of lollipops to give him!”
The more Tang Zhou talked, the more excited he got, “It’s said that the kid is really too cool, he directly told Ogden, ‘If there’s a golf tournament, you can find me directly, but if you want to teach me, sorry, you’re not qualified enough!'”
Ye Xingguang became enthused upon hearing this, as she also knew how to play golf. When she was on the island, her father and Uncle Li next door both loved playing golf, and she grew up playing with them. Her skills were not bad, but she had never played seriously, so she wasn’t clear about her own level.
“What golf tournaments are there in the country? I’d like to join one too, just to see how good my skills are.”
“Little Xingguang, can you play?”
Ye Xingguang’s eyes flashed fiercely, “Don’t doubt my skills! I’m no country bumpkin!”noveldrama
Of course, Tang Zhou didn’t dare to underestimate her, considering a country bumpkin’s father could be the Crown Prince of S country. With such a background for her father, how could Tang Zhou dare question his daughter’s skills? He said, “Of course there is. There’s a men’s golf tournament in a few days, organized by a club owned by a buddy of mine. However, you’re a woman; you can’t participate.”
“Isn’t there a women’s tournament?”
Tang Zhou shook his head, “The women’s tournament ended last week. You didn’t mention it earlier. If you had, I could have pulled some strings to register you.”
Ye Xingguang felt dejected and after taking a few bites of her meal, said, “I can disguise myself as a man.”
“Pfft…” Tang Zhou almost choked on his food.
“My cross-dressing skills are not bad! Can you not react so dramatically please? Get me a spot in the tournament; I want to play. Otherwise, I’m going to go crazy from boredom staying at home every day.”
She had quit her job at the President’s news office, and the sea elders would not let her do any work really fitting for a queen’s status. Right now, she urgently needs to find something to enrich her life!
“Little Xingguang, are you serious?”
“Of course.” Ye Xingguang tugged on her husband, Ye Junqing’s arm, “Honey, do you support me?”
“If you like it, just go register.”
As the saying goes, like mother, like child. Her son succeeded a hundred shots out of a hundred after just a few practices, so his mother’s fish tail likely wouldn’t fall far behind.
“See, my husband supports me. Tang Zhou, just get me a spot. Is it still possible to register now?”
Tang Zhou said, “Logically speaking, it’s definitely too late, but my buddy and I are really close. It shouldn’t be a problem to give you a chance for some backdoor entry. After all, it’s not a professional race; there aren’t so many rules. But I’ve heard that this time those who registered are all quite skilled. Even a few of my buddies aren’t confident in joining. Are you sure you want to participate?”
