Chapter 6: Mr CEO, please focus… WRONG FOCUS! (1)
"Sir, we have a meeting with the CEO of Jiang group today, remember?" Shi Qiang reminded her boss, who had a dark circle under his eyes. He looked very dispirited in the morning.
Xiaojun only nodded and walked to his office lifelessly. He was in a sour mood for the whole morning, which bugged Shi Qiang to no end.
"Were you up the whole night to read BL?" Shi Qiang asked while putting the morning coffee for her boss on the table.
"No, I should have read BL book instead of playing that stupid game for the whole night," Xiaojun complained. He sipped his morning coffee and sighed, "Even this morning coffee is less bitter than the bitterness in my heart."
"What kind of game makes you this sour?" Shi Qiang frowned.
"It's a gacha game full of handsome husbandos. I want to get that new character so bad. So I farmed the whole night to get enough gems to summon. I wasted all my saved gems for five months, and I still didn't get him," Xiaojun said, remembering all his gems depleted into zero hurt him so bad. a
"You can just use your credit card," Shi Qiang suggested. She had something brilliant in her mind, "Mr. Feng, you are literally the big fish in a big tank. Why are you complaining over something like this? Just use your credit card! Or if you want, you can just buy the company!"
"No! Don't you see? I'm playing a free to play player because I want the satisfaction! If I buy everything, then it will become boring!" Xiaojun raised his chest proudly, "I haven't spent any money to get all my husbandos! I am a faithful F2P!"
Shi Qiang facepalmed when facing her own boss. Mr. Feng could literally buy the company of that game and instantly become the top player, but he decided to go painful life of a F2P.
"Well, sir, at least you should keep your spirit up. Because we are meeting Jiang Group's new CEO. I've read the information about him, they said that the new CEO of Jiang Group is amazing, and have a sharp wit! He is also the young master of Jiang family!" Shi Qiang informed enthusiastically, "I really hope this one doesn't turn out gay, amen."
"Eehh Secretary Shi, believe me, there is no 'young' CEO around except me. All of them are at least forty or fifty years old uncles," Xiaojun sighed, "If only we are in a novel world. But like BL novel, I'd have many men chasing for me. Ahh! I want to have many handsome, accomplished men chasing me!"
"I don't want to be with the same world as you, damn it!" Shi Qiang denied vehemently, "Because you will be the main character, and I will be the side character that only appeared in one panel or two!"
Xiaojun giggled, he was in a better mood after bickering with Shi Qiang, "Alright, since we have to meet this Jiang Group's CEO and see his company's presentation, I hope there is at least one young staff who is handsome. So I can feel refreshed!"
Shi Qiang sighed. She was still trying to keep up with her boss' antics. Aunty Xu warned her about Xiaojun's non-BL weird habits. So she had to be prepared.
'Young lady, please expect the unexpected from our Xiaojun! He has many weird habits, I I hope you are not turned off by his antics! He is truly a good man!' Aunty Xu warned her repeatedly.
'Too late, Aunty. I've been turned off long before you said so,' Shi Qiang said in her heart.

Right when the clock pointed at ten in the morning. Jiang Group's employees came to the meeting room. Most of them were actually quite old, at least older than Xiaojun.
Xiaojun's positive expectation dimmed immediately once he saw these typical old office workers. His night was horrible after he wasted all his gems for nothing. Now he had to face long hours of listening to these boring old men talking about typical profit and such.
The situation worsened since they informed that their CEO would be late for the meeting for an unknown reason.
Feng Xiaojun was a professional, but he also had bad days sometimes. Maybe today was just one of his bad days.
Secretary Shi glanced at her boss and saw that her boss didn't have a good face for Jiang Group employees. It seemed that today would be bad luck for Jiang Group.
Jiang Group started opening the presentation and talked about the mall plan, profit they would have if Feng Xiaojun wanted to joint venture in this together, et cetera. It was the typical meeting for Xiaojun.
He just answered with hmmm or ah
The presenter noticed that Mr. Feng's expression didn't look too good, probably because Mr. Jiang was late for the meeting.
Xiaojun's expression worsened for each minute passed. Xiaojun was incredibly pissed because the CEO of Jiang Group was late for one hour. Xiaojun interrupted the presentation, "I think we need to postpone this meeting. This matter of unprofessionalism is not tolerable for me."
"M--Mr. Feng! Please wait a bit more! Our CEO runs into some problem this morning, he said that he will be coming soon!"
"Tell him to come tomorrow. I don't have time to wait him forever," Xiaojun replied and then ignored the Jiang Group employee. He stood from his chair and walked towards the door with Shi Qiang following behind.
Right when he was going to open the door, the door handle was opened from outside.
Xiaojun was stupefied when he saw a handsome man around the same height as him standing with a box smile showing his neat row of teeth. He had short hair, clean-shaven, and looked really young, probably around Shi Qiang's age or slightly younger.
Xiaojun was in a bad mood for the whole day until this fresh young man came in and blessed his day with his box smile and bright eyes. This man was like a fresh morning sun compared to Xiaojun's cold, domineering aura.
'Ah I have been blessed by buddha today'
"Ah, pardon my tardiness. I faced some problem on my way here," the man smiled and offered his hand for a handshake, "My name is Jiang Jinxing, I'm the CEO of Jiang Group. And sir, you must be"
"Feng Xiaojun. Single."
