"You!"
Even if Zhou Zidong were nothing but a pig, he would have understood the meaning behind Xu Fan's words.
It was clear—he was not accepting Zhou Zidong's apology!
Zhou Zidong clenched his teeth and glared at Xu Fan with venomous eyes!
How had he ever apologized to anyone in all his life?
And yet, this guy had the audacity to be defiant towards him?
"Xu Fan, you this..."
The situation seemed off, and just as Lu Jun, who was beside them, tried to speak up, Xu Fan turned to look at Zhou Zidong.
"Zhou Zidong, you're a man, yet why does your voice sound like a woman's?"
"You want to apologize to me? Alright, I, Xu Fan, will give you a chance."
"But you better be sincere in your attitude, and louder in your voice, got it?"
"You!"
A surge of rage burned in his chest, and in that moment, Zhou Zidong itched to rush at Xu Fan and fight for his life, but fortunately, Lu Jun immediately blocked him.
"Zhou Zidong!"
Giving Zhou Zidong a severe pinch, Lu Jun glared at him and admonished him with a scolding tone.
The harsh reprimand snapped Zhou Zidong to his senses; if he had lunged at Xu Fan just then, he might have had his head sent flying.
Punch clenched tightly, and full of humiliation, Zhou Zidong squeezed out three words from his mouth.
"I'm sorry!"
The words were many times louder than before, carried a good distance away before the wind dispersed them.
Xu Fan casually cleared his ear as if unable to hear and squinted his eyes, saying, "Hmm, not easy indeed."
"But still not quite there yet."
"Xu surname! What else do you want?"
Zhou Zidong was livid with rage, his face flushed red—this guy was clearly toying with him!
"Zhou young master, when you run amok in the world, sooner or later you have to pay the price. You need to understand that from how arrogant you were before."
At that moment, Xu Fan casually looked at Zhou Zidong and pointed to the grass beneath his feet, saying, "If you want me to forgive you, it's simple."
"Kneel before me and slap yourself four times, loudly. Do that, and I, Xu Fan, will forgive you."
"Otherwise, the words I, Xu Fan, said that day will absolutely stand!"
Merely kneeling was already a difficult request, yet Xu Fan now demanded that he slap his own face four times, hard?
Lu Jun, who was listening, couldn't help feeling irritated.
"Xu Fan, can't you give me some face?"
Lu Jun fixed a gloomy gaze directly on Xu Fan.
Xu Fan felt an urge to laugh seeing his expression.
This guy, right from the start, was all about networking and seniority, expecting Xu Fan to directly call him "brother," as if he was really something special.
"Lu Jun, why should I, Xu Fan, give you face?"
Meeting Lu Jun's gaze head-on, Xu Fan spoke indifferently.
"Indeed, I am someone who enjoys a good joke, but there are certain matters I take very seriously."
"Today, if things aren't done as I say, my words will come true. His Zhou Family will definitely become the next Ke Family."
In that moment, the young man before him, younger in age than himself, demonstrated through his actions what it meant to possess Proud Bone.
Without daring to doubt the truth behind Xu Fan's words, Lu Jun fixed his stare on Xu Fan, unconsciously tightening his fists, forcibly suppressing the anger within.
"Fine, Xu Fan, Zhou young master will do as you say."
"Lu Jun!"
At Lu Jun's words, Zhou Zidong looked over at him in astonishment.
He was unwilling to do it!
To kneel and bind his hands! Such humiliation was worse than death!
"Let me finish!"
Before Zhou Zidong could speak, Lu Jun shot him a glare and silenced him.
Lu Jun looked at Xu Fan and said, "Xu Fan, let's make a bet."
"If you win, not to mention Zhou Zidong, I, Lu Jun, will kneel before you as well! I'll apologize to you in the manner you just described."
"But if you lose, you must do the same. Dare you?"
The look in Lu Jun's eyes as he stared at Xu Fan was full of defiance; how could this young man, so much younger than himself, be better than him?
Lu Jun clenched his fists tightly, resolved to teach Xu Fan today how one should conduct oneself!
"Oh? Bet on what?"
Xu Fan flashed a slight smile, glanced at Lu Jun, and inquired.
At that moment, Lu Jun gestured to a caddy waiting nearby. When the caddy came over, Lu Jun asked for two golf clubs.
After tossing one of them to Xu Fan, he said, "Given that we are on a golf course, let's not fuss over anything else. How about you and I have a match?"
Having said that, Lu Jun gazed at the golf club in his hand, a crooked smile on his lips as he spoke, "Uh… however, I heard a rumor that you came from the countryside, Xu Fan. You wouldn't know how to play golf, would you?"
"You!"
Lu Jun's statement was dripping with a sense of superiority.
Xia Xiaodie couldn't help it and shot Lu Jun a glare!
"Xiaodie."
Xu Fan pulled Xia Xiaodie back, blocking her.
He had heard from Han Dongxu that Lu Jun seemed to be an overseas returnee from Australia, with a bone-deep adoration for foreign things in his marrow.
Playing with the golf club in his hand, Xu Fan chuckled and said, "Actually, the sport of golf evolved from an ancient Huaxia game called 'chuiwan.' Foreigners, having seen nothing of the world, took this ordinary Huaxia sport as a treasure, turning it into a nobleman's game, heh, it's quite amusing when I think about it."
"…"
Lu Jun's smile stiffened on his face; clearly, Xu Fan's remark was an indirect way of mocking him.
Xu Fan waved his hand and said, "Hey now, don't get me wrong, what I said was just my personal opinion, I didn't mean to offend anyone."
Upon hearing this, Xia Xiaodie couldn't help but laugh. This guy was too caustic; he had insulted him and then claimed he hadn't, who was he kidding!
Xu Fan continued, "Don't worry, as a Huaxia person, I naturally know a bit about golf, so there's no need to change the activity."
"Tell me, how do you want to play?"
Hearing Xu Fan ask about the rules of the game, Lu Jun snorted internally, then regained his composure.
He pointed towards the green in the distance and said, "Xu Fan, do you see that? Roughly a kilometer from where we stand, there's a hole."
"Let's see who can get the ball into the hole with the fewest strokes. There are no other rules. After the ball goes in, whoever has the lowest stroke count wins. How about it?"
The rules set by Lu Jun were not complicated, and following his direction, Xu Fan quickly spotted the flag marking the hole.
He nodded in agreement and said, "Alright, let's start now then."
With terms agreed upon, Lu Jun gave an instruction to the caddy, who headed to a basket of balls, picked out two golf balls, and placed them at the feet of Xu Fan and Lu Jun.
Now that they had the balls and clubs in hand, the bet could begin.
Lu Jun weighed the golf club in his hand, gave Xu Fan a smile, and said, "Then Xu Fan, I'll take the first shot."
Having said that, Lu Jun checked the hole a kilometre away, gauged his swing with the golf club, and after getting the feel for the strength needed, he swung with all his might! With a woosh! The golf ball shot out like a meteor!
