My Sexy CEO Wife

Bright Pearl City.

An office in the Canal District.

Inside the interrogation room.

Fu Shao sat on the chair, glaring with his eyes wide open, cursing loudly. He cursed Gao Fei, Lu Hao, Feng Yan, and Feng Yugang, and finally even lashed out at the police who had arrested him.

Zhao Ting sat beside Fu Shao, her head lowered and her brows furrowed, lost in thought…

At this moment, Zhao Ting's feelings were incredibly complex. The events of tonight had caught her off guard. Gao Fei owned assets worth tens of billions? Could that be true? Zhao Ting murmured to herself, if it were true… then her initial choice would have been laughably foolish.

Over six months ago, Gao Fei had been completely obedient to her, satisfying whatever requests she made. If he couldn't satisfy them, Gao Fei would apologize and find ways to make up for it. Back then, Gao Fei really seemed adorable...

There was a moment when Zhao Ting genuinely wanted to marry Gao Fei and live under his care for the rest of her life, but once she calmed down, that thought started to fade. Gao Fei indeed treated her well, and he was diligent in his work—a reliable man. However... Gao Fei's background was too poor.

Born to a farmer's family, working as a security guard, earning only a few thousand a month, without a house or a car, and his household registration wasn't even local. If she truly married Gao Fei, then Zhao Ting would have to endure a hard life, which was unbearable for her.

Zhao Ting's life motto was: "Better to cry in a BMW than smile on a bicycle!"

Since her childhood, she swore that she would find a wealthy man to be her boyfriend, to rid herself of poverty completely, to become a wealthy lady, living an affluent life. Recently, she had used various opportunities to get close to rich men. Her body was no longer pure, as long as she was given money to spend, she would sleep with anyone—it was that simple.

In her world, money was the most important; everything else could be discarded and ignored.

Did I make a mistake by giving up on Gao Fei? A look of confusion appeared in Zhao Ting's eyes…

"Hey! What are you thinking about?" Fu Shao shouted.

"Ah... nothing…" Zhao Ting shook her head: "Fu Shao, when can we get out of here... I don't want to stay here for a moment longer…"

"Don't worry, someone will come to rescue us soon," Fu Shao stated confidently. "Once I get out, I'll seek revenge on those bastards. Goddammit, they dared to hit me, and even had the police arrest me, I definitely can't let this go! This is the first time I've ever been so wronged in my life!"

"Fu Shao, just let it go," Zhao Ting advised. "They have strong backgrounds, don't fight with them…"

"Shut the hell up!" Fu Shao's face changed instantly: "If you spout that crap again, I'll kill you!"

"Fu Shao, I'm saying this for your own good…"

"Your own good my ass!" Fu Shao had no appreciation. "Who the hell do you think you are, meddling in my business? You're nothing but a worn-out shoe that everyone can wear! If it weren't for your looks, I wouldn't even bother with you."

"How... how can you say that about me…" Zhao Ting's face turned pale with anger, and her body shook uncontrollably.

"What? Did I say something wrong?" Fu Shao sneered: "You're just a worn-out shoe! Why did you approach me in the first place? Wasn't it for money? I give you money, and you sleep with me, at my disposal. I've seen plenty of women like you who would do anything for money, without shame, dignity, or spine.

What even are you?" Fu Shao vented all his rage onto Zhao Ting, seeing her as nothing more than a worn-out shoe to be used and discarded without a second thought.

"You... you..." Zhao Ting was so angry that she was at a loss for words.

I'm telling you now, seriously, I'm tired of playing with you. Once we get out of here, you can get lost, go as far away as you can, and don't bother me again!" Fu Shao said. "Considering that you've served me well, I'll give you some money as a reward."

"I won't take your money!" Zhao Ting bit her teeth, saying each word distinctly: "I must have been blind to have become your woman!"

"Oh wow, quite spirited, aren't we?" Fu Shao laughed. "Right, I know a few young masters who would probably like a woman like you. Maybe one day I'll set you up with them? You entertain them once, and they pay you for that time—a fair trade, very fair. Later, I could speak to them, get them to offer a higher price."

"I don't need you to worry about my affairs." Zhao Ting's eyes reddened, and she held back her tears from falling. In that moment, her heart was in immense pain, filled with regret. She hated her lack of judgment, despised her foolishness, and loathed her own weakness…

"Bang!"

The tightly closed door was flung open, and then a distinguished middle-aged man walked in.

"Dad, you finally came." Fu Shao's face brightened. "Please get me out fast; I don't want to stay here for another second." The visitor was none other than Fu Shao's father, named Li Dasheng, a prominent figure in Bright Pearl City.

"You can only cause trouble every day, can't you give me a break?" Li Dasheng initially wanted to scold his son severely, but seeing his son's miserable condition made him feel pity, and the harsh words at the tip of his tongue were swallowed back. "You really are a disappointment."

"Dad..."

"Don't call me dad, I'm not your father."

"Dad, it wasn't my fault today, it was the other party..."

"Still arguing back!" Li Dasheng glared at his son. "Uncle Qiao has already told me everything that happened."

"Don't mention Qiao Heshui to me! He's a complete loser!" Fu Shao cursed. "Not only did he not help me, but he also had me arrested, it's infuriating! Dad, you saved him before; he is so ungrateful."

"Shut your mouth!" Li Dasheng's face turned a shade of green with anger as he pointed a finger at Fu Shao's nose and scolded, "If it weren't for Uncle Qiao protecting you today, you would have been in big trouble!"

"I..."

"Do you know who those people are? They have deep backgrounds, and even I have to speak to them with bated breath. Yet, there you go, showing off in front of them. Are you tired of living?"

"Dad..."

"Our family does have some money, some status, and compared to ordinary people, we have a sense of superiority. But compared to those real people of privilege, we are like ants— they could crush us by simply moving a finger!"

"It can't be as serious as you say."

"It's only going to be more serious than what I've said!" Li Dasheng sighed, "Son, when will you grow up? I'm getting old, I can't withstand your troublemaking."

"Dad, don't scare me, please." Finally, Fu Shao was afraid.

"Just stay here quietly, wait until their anger subsides, and then I'll come to bail you out." After saying this, Li Dasheng turned and left.

"Dad, don't go, please. Dad, get me out of here, Dad..." Behind him, the panicked pleas of Fu Shao could be heard, but sadly, Li Dasheng never looked back.

Seeing Fu Shao's dispirited appearance, Zhao Ting felt especially gratified and happy.

...

In the hallway.

Li Dasheng and Qiao Heshui stood by the door, speaking in low voices.

"President Li, this matter really isn't easy to handle," Qiao Heshui sighed. "The other party has a profound background, one we can't afford to offend."

"It's all my fault," Li Dasheng shook his head. "I spoiled Little Fu too much, and it's turned him into what he is today."

"Actually, looking at it from another angle... it's not entirely a bad thing."

"Oh? How so?"

"Little Fu has suffered a big loss this time and learned his lesson. He will surely be more cautious in the future and never dare to cause trouble recklessly."

"Hmm, what you've said makes some sense."

"Of course, you'll still need to strengthen your supervision over Little Fu in the future. It would be best to assign someone to watch over him. After all, bad habits are easy to pick up but hard to drop."

Li Dasheng nodded, "I understand." He paused briefly, then said, "I'm thinking of going to apologize to Feng Yugang, hoping he will let Little Fu off."

"Hmm, making a visit might help. Just remember to be humble, say some nice words, oh, and don't give any gifts. Feng Yugang hates that sort of thing," Qiao Heshui advised.

"I'll bear that in mind. I'm going now." After saying this, Li Dasheng turned and left. He had some connections in officialdom too, being relatives with the provincial leader Li Chenggong. But what of it? The other party was from a major family in the capital, with immense influence, not someone he could afford to offend. When facing someone more powerful, one must bow their head.

In this society, it's survival of the fittest. If you're weak, you'll be trampled underfoot by the strong! If you don't want to be bullied, you have to strive to become stronger!

And remember this saying: There's always someone better, no matter how great your power, you can't be too arrogant. It's best to keep a low profile, as it's the tradition passed down by our Huaxia ancestors to stay humble.

Watching Li Dasheng's retreating figure, Qiao Heshui sighed, "One really shouldn't be too arrogant, or there will surely be retribution."

...

The next morning, Gao Fei received a call from Feng Yugang.

"Mr. Gao, am I disturbing your rest?" Feng Yugang asked politely.

"No, I get up very early every day." Gao Fei replied.

After exchanging pleasantries, Feng Yugang went straight to the point, "Mr. Gao, how do you plan to deal with that man and woman?"

"The man and woman?" Gao Fei was taken aback and then realized Feng Yugang was talking about Fu Shao and Zhao Ting.

"Their families have come to me, admitting their wrongs and willing to make any compensation," Feng Yugang said. Because the matter involved Gao Fei, he did not presume to decide and instead called to ask for Gao Fei's opinion.

"Just teach them a lesson and let them go," said Gao Fei.

"Okay, I understand." After getting his answer, Feng Yugang ended the call.

Gao Fei put down the phone and mused aloud, "Being a miracle doctor is quite popular. Just by uttering a few words, so many people rush to curry favor."
