Dawson was rather shocked. He could tell that Jasper was confident in himself. He did not seem to be saying so just for the sake of showing him courtesy.
“Alright, go take a golf club. Let’s go in to play one round.”
Wendy and Dawson did not know that Jasper had often accompanied his boss to play golf in his past life for business purposes. He did not dare say that he had world-class golfing skills, but he considered himself better than an amateur.
Jasper walked over to get a golf club. Both of them then chatted happily while walking toward the golf course.
With a caddy following behind them, Wendy could not join in their conversation. She could only listen to what they were talking about.
She wanted Jasper to come over to help her father out. However, both of them had not talked about business after meeting. They were simply chatting about their personal insights on certain trivial matters. Wendy was overcome with dismay.
The weather today was pretty good with white clouds floating in the brilliant blue sky. The air was also cleaner and fresher compared to the future years. On top of that, the golf course had an excellent environment. Jasper and Dawson were rather high-spirited while they chatted and strolled toward the course.
As they made their way over to the tee, Dawson, acting his part as Jasper’s senior, gestured for him to start off the round.
Jasper did hesitate either. He grabbed the club he would be using to strike the ball and bent his knees slightly. Holding tightly onto the handle of the golf club, he turned around and struck the ball in one go.
Dawson’s eyes shone as he watched the white golf ball fly over the fairway and fall onto the green where the hole was located. “What an accurate strike. You’re a veteran,” he said.
“Excuse my poor performance.”
After Jasper spoke, he walked toward the ball with Dawson.
“I heard from Wendy that you’ve done some investments. Why don’t you find a stable job instead? It’s risky to do business,” Dawson said in a casual tone.
Jasper’s brows arched slightly. After going through all the formalities with him, Dawson was now beginning to probe into his details.
This meant that he had obtained Dawson’s initial approval. If their previous meeting and subsequent conversations had not satisfied him, he may not be facing such a situation.
They would most likely just have a meal together and return to their homes respectively.
