Chapter 59: Lard
Chapter 59: Lard
When the company director heard Si Yu, he immediately nodded. He made a gesture of invitation toward Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi, eagerly attentive. Please follow me to a meeting room.
Thanks. Gu Xizhou wasnt polite, immediately following him into the conference room.
Soon after, the director put two bottles of mineral water on the table, and he said courteously, Police officer comrades, please take a seat.
En. Gu Xizhou unscrewed the lid of the water bottle and casually asked, How long have you known Xu Wei?
For more than ten years. Im not cultured. In the beginning, I also worked a temporary position for Xu Wei. After he became a small chief labor foreman, I followed him up, the director replied. I saw this company built from scratch; I also have some shares in the company, but very few.
Do you know this person? Gu Xizhou put Zhou Yiguangs photo on the table, pushing it in front of the director.
The director carefully scrutinized it for a moment, then shook his head: I dont know.
He didnt come to the company to look for Xu Wei?
No. In any case, I havent seen him. Maybe other employees have, the manager replied after thinking about it. How about this, ba. Ill call over Chief Xus former secretary for you. She should know. Shes been together with the boss longer than anyone else.
Secretary. Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows, asking straightforwardly, Is it Xu Weis mistress?
The director smiled awkwardly and nodded, saying, You could say that. Anyway, shes still in the company. During that time, Chief Xu liked to seek her out the most.
Good, you have her come over.
The director took out his cell phone and made a call. The sound played through the speakers to let Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi both hear. The call quickly connected, and Gu Xizhou heard a pleasant female voice. With a slightly suspicious tone, she asked, Director, whats the matter?
Come to conference room one on the twenty fourth floor.
Were sorry for MTLers or people who like using reading mode, but our translations keep getting stolen by aggregators so were going to bring back the copy protection. If you need to MTL please retype the gibberish parts.Ah the director was embarrassed and said, Actually, this is the first time Ive seen the big boss. Previously, we never saw him in person. It was always his assistant who came over. Even when he acquired our company, he didnt come over. You seem quite familiar with the big boss, ah?
Gu Xizhou agreed, then said, Xu Wei disappeared last year over winter vacation. Which property was he at when he disappeared?
The director rubbed his bald head and recalled, Its Shallow Water Garden, just over the viaduct. When he was reported missing, the police officers also went over to the construction site to look for him, but they didnt find a trace.
It gets dark very early during winter, and it was the beginning of the year at that time. There werent many people at the construction site. He drove over alone to patrol, and no one saw how Chief Xu disappeared. To tell the truth Chief Xu always had too many mistresses outside. No one thought he actually went missing at that time. He had several families. We noticed that he hadnt come to work for a week, so we called him, but his phone was turned off, and no one answered.
It was then we realized he might have had an accident, so we told his wife, Deng Mei. Then, the company also asked people to look for several days, but it was useless, so we called the police.
After we called the police, our companys stock plummeted. The companys projects were also at a standstill. At that time, the company almost shut down. Finally, Deng Mei sold her shares, and the big boss injected funds into the business until it rose from the dead.
Gu Xizhou nodded. Then, someone knocked on the door, pushing it open and peeking their head in. The person was a woman around 30 years old, and she was very beautiful. Director, you were looking for me?
The director beckoned the woman forward and said, Xiao Shan, you come in. These two are police officers; they want to ask you about a few matters.
The woman called Xiao Shan hesitated when she heard this. After she came in, she rubbed her hands together in discomfort before taking a seat.
Theres no need to be nervous. I only want to ask about Xu Weis business, Gu Xizhou said softly. He took out the photograph and passed it to Xiao Shan. I heard the director say that before Xu Wei went missing, your relationship with him was the best. Did you ever see this man when you two were together?
Xiao Shan took the photograph Gu Xizhou handed to her, looking at it carefully. She shook her head: I havent seen him.
After hearing Xu Weis mistress reply, Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi obviously felt very disappointed. They proceeded to call forward other old employees of the company to ask about the matter. None of these people had ever seen Zhou Yiguang.
Lets just go to Shallow Water Garden to try our luck. Gu Xizhou looked at the time. He said to the director, Its already 11 oclock. Youve worked hard. Well go out to eat a meal first. Could I trouble you to ask an employee who knows about the affairs of the construction site to accompany us to Shallow Water Garden in half an hour?
No problem! the director said, rejuvenated.
After Gu Xizhou left the conference room, he went to the restroom. Standing at the mirror, he heard ke ke ke laughter from the womens restroom
Did you hear?! They say the big boss came over today to patrol!
The big boss? Isnt he another bald, greasy old man, ba?
Right, ah, like that one Chief Xu before was so bothersome, ah! Every day, he wanted to use the unspoken rules in the company with the beautiful girls with that sort of appearance! Sleeping with him thinking about it makes me sick! Whats the difference between that and sleeping with lard! I dont know how Shan Jie endured it.
Hahaha, you peoples mouths are too poisonous! Lard, ah I think its all greasy. Its so disgusting, ah.
According to your words, the companys big boss is even bigger lard than Chief Xu!
As soon as Gu Xizhou heard the voice, he knew that she was the first girl to speak. The girls inside laughed together, and Gu Xizhou could help snickering. The girls left the restroom just in time to see Gu Xizhou and were stunned.
Did that man just see? Is he from our company?
Is he new, ba? Wheat colored skin, and he looks quite handsome~
Gu Xizhou left the washroom. He had just turned the corner when he saw Si Yu, dressed in casual attire with both hands in his pockets. Baffled, he said, Why are you here? Arent you here to patrol the company?
Si Yu said, Annoying. If they werent always inviting me, I wouldnt bother to come.
Would you doing this really notresult in a failed investment? Gu Xizhou asked bluntly.
Cant you speak like a person? Si Yu raised his eyebrows and glared at him.
Gu Xizhou spread his hands and said, Fang Zhi and I were going to go out for a meal. Do you want to go together?
Si Yu nodded in reply and said, Fine.
As they were talking, the four girls walked by and happened to see Gu Xizhou and Si Yu. The four of them immediately slowed their steps.
Contrariwise, Si Yu didnt pay attention to this and walked side by side with Gu Xizhou to the large doors. At the doorway, he said to the receptionist, Tell your director I went out to eat with a friend. If anything happens, tell Xiao Yu directly.
Yes, boss. The young lady receptionist nodded with a red face. Si Yu put his hands on the front desk and bowed slightly. His delicate jawline extended straight down to his clavicle
What a pity I cant see whats below that. The young receptionist was a little disappointed.
Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi noticed the look of disappointment leaking from the young ladys eyes. They looked at each other in tacit understanding and snickered.
What are you laughing at? Si Yu asked after he returned.
Gu Xizhou shook his head, pressing the elevator button. He took another glance at the receptionist before the three entered the elevator.
Just as the elevator door closed, four girls bounced in energetically. They went over to the receptionist, eager for gossip, and asked, You see, our little flower receptionist is blushing like a monkeys butt! Quickly tell us, who were those three people just now?
The one who spoke with me was the big boss. The other two are police officers, said the little receptionist.
Hold on. The four girls faces looked dumbfounded. Youre saying the handsome brother wearing the white T-shirt and the black sweatpants is the big boss?
The receptionist looked at the girls with a puzzled expression. Thats right! Whats the problem?
Fuck!
The four girls spoke in unison, That handsome man just heard us say that the big boss is lard! Fuck! Were gonna die; well die!
The author has something to say: Two minutes late~
Crooked: Midterms dying
