Chapter 91: President Zhou Is Gay
Due to Zhang Huang’s visit yesterday, Zhou Xuan’s time at home to handle official business had been reduced a lot. Later on, He Sheng was worried that Zhou Xuan would not rest well, so he took the initiative to check the follow-up information for Zhou Xuan and transferred it to the USB drive.
Seeing that He Sheng had gone out to get the USB drive, the employees sitting slightly away from Zhou Xuan immediately muttered softly,
“President Zhou, it’s really hard on you. I heard from Little Chen from the Administration Department that President Zhou has been so busy that he’s been in the office during lunch break.”
“That’s why I’m jealous of so many rich people, but I’m not jealous of President Zhou. The Zhou family’s wealth was all earned by President Zhou.”
“President Zhou looks cold-blooded, but he’s actually very good to his subordinates. If there’s a problem with the plan written by the planning department, he’ll change it directly. He’ll just say not to make a mistake next time. If it were our manager, he would have scolded them badly.”
“Sigh, President Zhou is such a good person, but he’s not married yet. He’s alone and has many rich ladies pursuing him. Why isn’t President Zhou moved?”
“That’s right. Let alone getting married, we’ve never seen President Zhou in a relations.h.i.+p.”
A female employee carefully glanced at Zhou Xuan, who was seriously looking at the computer in the distance. She lowered her voice and gossiped, “No woman has ever appeared beside him. He doesn’t even want a female secretary!”
“That means that our President Zhou is clean and is a role model for us men,” the male employee in the checkered s.h.i.+rt said proudly.
“No, no, no.” The female employee spoke even more carefully. After a pause as if she was deliberately keeping them in suspense, she said seriously, “After a discussion among more than ten female compatriots in our finance department, we suspect that President Zhou is gay. He likes men!”
“What? President Zhou likes men?” The male employee who had spoken just now immediately became nervous, and his voice changed.
“Come on, even if President Zhou likes men, he won’t like you…” The female employee immediately rolled her eyes.
“Silence.” Zhou Xuan heard the whispers from the back of the meeting room and reminded them coldly. Everyone immediately fell silent and did not dare to speak.
He Sheng happened to come in at this moment and looked a little guilty. He whispered into Zhou Xuan’s ear, “President Zhou, I didn’t see the USB flash drive in your briefcase.”
“Maybe I left it behind in a hurry.” Zhou Xuan frowned. Now was the time to use this information. It was too late to get someone to retrieve the information from the Zhou Residence. This was quite a problem.
“Then I’ll hurry back and get it… Wait!” He Sheng suddenly remembered something and said in surprise, “I used my own computer to transfer the doc.u.ments for you yesterday. There should be a backup record. I’ll go get it now.”
Not long after, He Sheng quickly returned with the copied USB. Zhou Xuan loaded the doc.u.ment and saw that it was indeed the information from last night. He immediately felt relieved and projected it onto the huge screen behind him.
Seeing the big screen light up, Zhou Xuan was about to call his subordinate up to report when the electronic screen suddenly turned black, along with the computer that Zhou Xuan had inserted into the USB drive.
“What’s going on? Is there a malfunction?” He Sheng was still waiting at the side. Seeing this, he quickly went forward to check what was wrong.
He Sheng quickly checked it with experience and said, “President Zhou, wait a moment. It seems that the data on the USB drive has malfunctioned. It’s not a big problem.”
Two consecutive mistakes in the early morning meeting made Zhou Xuan frown again, but he did not say anything. He retreated to the side of the big electronic screen and waited silently for He Sheng’s repairs to end.
But Zhou Xuan felt that something was amiss.
A few of the higher-ups sitting close to him first looked in his direction with confused eyes. Then, their expressions changed drastically. They quickly lowered their heads and raised them again in a dilemma, as if they wanted to say something to him, but they could not speak.
Immediately after, the group of people behind repeated this action. Their expressions were surprised but especially frightened. They hurriedly sized him up and saw Zhou Xuan looking at them, so they quickly lowered their heads.
What were they doing? Zhou Xuan was a little displeased. He felt that his employees were a little abnormal today, but it was not convenient for him to say it directly, so he could only continue to stand in silence and let the large group of people below scan him.
Usually, in meetings, Zhou Xuan would naturally be stared at by countless pairs of eyes. He was already used to it, but today, he was stared at until his hair stood on end. Something was really wrong.
