When the manager heard Si Yu's words, he immediately nodded and politely gestured to Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi. "Please follow me to the conference room."
"Thank you." Gu Xizhou followed him into the conference room.
The manager then placed two bottles of mineral water on the table and said politely, "Please take a seat. You can ask me whatever you want."
"Okay." Gu Xizhou unscrewed the bottle cap and said casually, "How long have you known Xu Wei?"
"More than ten years. I'm not very educated. At first, I worked for Xu Wei. Later, when he became a contractor, I followed him," the manager replied. The manager replied, "I watched this company build from scratch. I also have some shares in the company, but it's very little."
"Do you know this person?" Gu Xizhou placed Zhou Yiguang's photo on the table and pushed it in front of the manager.
The manager looked at it carefully for a moment and shook his head. "No."
"He didn't come to the company to look for Xu Wei?"
"No, I haven't seen him anyway. Maybe other colleagues have seen him," the manager replied after thinking for a while. "Well, I'll call over the secretary who used to work for Mr. Xu. She should know that she has been with the boss longer than anyone else."
"Secretary?" Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows and said directly, "Is she Xu Wei's mistress?"
The manager smiled awkwardly and nodded. "You can say that. Anyway, she's still in the company. During that time, Chairman Xu liked to look for her the most."
"Okay, ask her to come over."
The manager took out his phone and made a call. Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi could hear the speaker. Soon, Gu Xizhou heard a pleasant female voice on the other end of the phone. She asked in a slightly puzzled tone, "Manager, what's the matter?"
"Conference room 1 on the 24th floor. Come over."
"Okay."
After hanging up the phone, the manager stood up and whispered, "Do you have any other questions? If not, I still have to keep an eye on my subordinates … The big boss is coming over today. I'm afraid they'll make trouble. "
"Sit down." Gu Xizhou waved his hand. "Relax. Your big boss doesn't even bother to look at the numbers in the reports. Do you really think he'll look at your PowerPoint?"
"Ah …" The manager said embarrassedly, "Actually, this is the first time I've seen the big boss. We've never seen the big boss in person before. It was his assistant who came. He didn't even come when he bought our company. You seem to be very familiar with the big boss?"
Gu Xizhou nodded. "Xu Wei went missing during the winter holidays last year. Which building did he go missing in?"
The manager touched his bald head and recalled, "It's Shallow Water Garden, just over the viaduct. When the missing person was reported, the police also went to the construction site to search, but they didn't find anything.
"It gets dark very early in the winter, and it was the beginning of the new year, so there weren't many people at the construction site. He drove alone to patrol, and no one saw how CEO Xu disappeared. To be honest … CEO Xu has too many women outside. At that time, no one actually thought that he had gone missing. He has several other homes outside. We also noticed that he didn't come to work for a week, so we called him, but his phone was turned off and no one answered."
"At that time, we realized that something might have happened, so we told his wife, Deng Mei. Then, the company hired people to look for him for a few days. We had no choice but to call the police.
"In the end, after the police were called, our company's stock price kept falling, and all the company's projects came to a standstill. At that time, the company almost couldn't operate. In the end, Deng Mei sold the shares and the big boss invested in the company to revive the company."
Gu Xizhou nodded. At this time, someone knocked on the door. A woman in her thirties peeked in. She was quite beautiful. "Manager, you're looking for me?"
The manager waved to the woman and said, "Xiao Shan, come in. These two are the police. They want to ask you something."
When the woman called Xiao Shan heard this, she paused. After coming in, she rubbed her hands uneasily and sat down on the chair.
"You don't have to be nervous. I just want to ask about Xu Wei," Gu Xizhou said softly, then took out a photo and handed it to Xiao Shan. "I heard from the manager that you were the closest to Xu Wei before he went missing. Have you seen this man while you were with him?"
Xiao Shan took the photo Gu Xizhou handed to her. After looking at it carefully for a moment, she shook her head and said, "No, I haven't seen him."
Hearing the answer of Xu Wei's mistress, Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi were obviously very disappointed. Then, they called the other old employees of the company to ask about the situation. These people had never seen Zhou Yiguang.
"We can only go to Shallow Water Garden to try our luck." Gu Xizhou raised his eyebrows, glanced at the time, and said to the manager, "It's already 11 o 'clock. Thank you for your hard work. The two of us will go out for a meal first. Please ask an employee who knows the situation at the construction site to accompany us to Shallow Water Garden. We'll leave in half an hour. Is that okay?"
"No problem!" The manager said readily.
After Gu Xizhou left the meeting room, he went to the washroom. Standing at the sink outside, he heard giggles coming from the women's washroom —
"Have you heard?! The big boss is here today. He said he's patrolling! "
"Big boss? Don't tell me it's another bald, greasy old man? "
"Yeah, that President Xu from before. He's so annoying! He wants to sleep with the pretty girls in the company every day. He doesn't even look at what he looks like! Sleeping with him … Just thinking about it makes me sick. What's the difference between sleeping with lard?! I don't know how Sister Shan tolerated it. "
"Hahaha, you people are too vicious! Lard … Just thinking about it makes me feel greasy. It's so disgusting. "
"According to what you said, the big boss of the company is a bigger lard than President Xu!"
Gu Xizhou knew that it was the girl who spoke first. The girls in the washroom laughed together. He couldn't help but laugh out loud. The girls who came out of the washroom happened to see Gu Xizhou and were stunned.
"Did you see that man just now? Is he from our company? "
"He's new, right? He has wheat-colored skin and is very handsome. "
"…"
Gu Xizhou left the washroom. Just as he turned a corner, he saw Si Yu in casual clothes with both hands in his pockets. He asked curiously, "Why are you here? Aren't you here to patrol the company? "
Si Yu said, "It's troublesome. If they didn't keep inviting me, I wouldn't even bother to come."
"You … Won't your investment lose money?" Gu Xizhou asked straightforwardly.
"Can't you say something reasonable?" Si Yu raised her eyebrows and glared at him.
Gu Xizhou spread his hands and said, "Fang Zhi and I are going out to eat now. Want to join us?"
Si Yu nodded and said, "Okay."
As the two of them were talking, four girls walked over and happened to see Gu Xizhou and Si Yu. The four of them immediately slowed down.
Si Yu didn't notice this detail and walked side by side with Gu Xizhou to the entrance. He said to the receptionist at the entrance, "Tell your manager that I'm going out to eat with my friends. If there's anything, just tell Little Yu."
"Okay, Boss." The receptionist nodded with a red face. Si Yu placed her hands on the receptionist's desk and bowed slightly. Her delicate jawline extended all the way to her collarbone …
Unfortunately, she couldn't see any lower. The receptionist was slightly disappointed.
Gu Xizhou and Fang Zhi noticed the disappointment in the receptionist's eyes. They looked at each other and laughed tacitly.
"What are you laughing about?" Si Yu, who had just returned from giving instructions, asked.
Gu Xizhou shook his head and pressed the elevator button. He glanced at the receptionist again and the three of them walked into the elevator.
As soon as the elevator door closed, the four girls bounced out. They walked to the receptionist and gossiped, "Look at our receptionist! Her face is as red as a monkey's butt! Quick, tell us, who were those three people just now? "
"The one who spoke to me was the big boss. The other two were policemen," the receptionist said softly.
"Wait." The four girls looked confused and asked, "You said that the handsome guy in the white t-shirt and black sweatpants was the big boss?"
The receptionist looked at them blankly and said, "Yes! Is there a problem? "
"F * ck!"
The four girls said in unison, "That manly handsome guy just now heard us say that the big boss is lard! F * ck, I'm going to die, I'm going to die! "
