My Sexy CEO Wife

"Mr. Wang! Did you visit my parents?!" Shen Caidie asked, stifling her anger.

"Yes, that did happen," Wang Wei didn't deny it.

"What on earth do you want!" Shen Caidie's voice rose a notch, "Why did you go bother my parents!"

"It was all for you, of course," Wang Wei said with a smile, "I've put all my effort into winning over your parents, hoping they would accept me, recognize me as their son-in-law. Hmm, the results aren't bad, your parents quite like me."

"Mr. Wang," Shen Caidie took a deep breath and then enunciated every word, "I've made it very clear to you! It's impossible between us. Please, don't bother my parents anymore. They are old and can't endure any sort of disturbance."

"Miss Shen..."

"Don't waste your time on me anymore, there's absolutely no chance for us." After saying this, Shen Caidie hung up the phone without hesitation.

...

Inside a luxurious villa.

Wang Wei held his phone, his face dark with gloom.

"Snap!"

Wang Wei threw the phone onto the coffee table with a crisp sound, "Shen Caidie! Since you're so unappreciative, don't blame me for using ruthless measures." Being repeatedly rejected by Shen Caidie had finally exhausted Wang Wei's patience.

"The woman I fancy! None has ever escaped the palm of my hand!" Wang Wei sneered.

That night, Wang Wei met with Ye Xiaohong, and the two talked for a long time. When Ye Xiaohong left, she looked very excited.

The next morning.

Shen Caidie arrived at the company earlier than usual, as per her daily routine. She cleaned the office first, then brewed a cup of tea, and sat down in her chair to savor it slowly—this had been her habit for many years, to drink a cup of tea before starting her work.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

"Come in," Shen Caidie responded.

"Creak." The door was pushed open, and a stylishly dressed lady stepped in on her high heels. She had red hair, heavy makeup, and a good figure—it was Ye Xiaohong.

"Ms. Ye? What brings you here?" Shen Caidie asked curiously.

"Here's the thing," Ye Xiaohong pulled out a chair and sat down, "I got word that an investor wants to liquidate a batch of raw jade stones at a very low price. I went to check it out personally, and I think the raw jade stones are quite good. I'm considering buying them."

"Raw jade stones?" Shen Caidie was taken aback, "How many?"

"A few thousand pieces," Ye Xiaohong said.

"A few thousand? That many?"

"Though the quantity is large, the price is very cheap."

"How cheap?"

"They're asking for fifty million! Average it out, and each stone is only a few thousand yuan. That's a cheap price, isn't it?"

Shen Caidie nodded, "Indeed, it's not expensive. But... have you considered this? If all those raw jade stones were high-quality, would the seller let them go at such a low price?"

"You're overthinking it," Ye Xiaohong said with a smile, "That investor lost money in his business and racked up a lot of debt. To pay off his debts, he has to sell off assets.

Those raw jade stones are just a part of his assets; he has several buildings for sale as well, and the prices are reasonable." Ye Xiaohong added, "Let me tell you, there are plenty of people interested in that batch of raw jade stones. If we don't hurry and grab them, someone else might beat us to it."

"Fifty million... that's no small sum..." Shen Caidie said with a furrowed brow.

"Come on, let me take you to see them. Once you see that batch of raw jade stones, you'll be interested," Ye Xiaohong stood up, pushing her chair back.

Shen Caidie nodded, "Okay, I'll go with you." Seeing is believing. If the batch of raw jade stones was indeed worth it, she would consider making the purchase.

And so, the two left the company by car.

"Where did you say this place was?" Shen Caidie asked.

"Number 18 Jianghuai Road. There's a large warehouse there, and the batch of raw jade stones is inside," Ye Xiaohong answered while driving.

Shen Caidie took out her phone from her pocket and quickly dialed a number, "Hello? Mr. Gao... are you free right now... I'd like to ask you to appraise a batch of raw jade stones... Yes, the address is Number 18 Jianghuai Road...

Okay, I'll wait for you there." After speaking a few sentences, Shen Caidie hung up the phone and put it back into her pocket.

"Who were you calling?" Ye Xiaohong turned to glance at Shen Caidie.

"Gao Fei," Shen Caidie said a name.

"The honorary consultant you hired?" Ye Xiaohong furrowed her brow immediately.

Shen Caidie nodded.

"What do you need him for? Do you really trust him that much?"

"Gao Fei is very capable. With him checking for us, the safety factor will increase substantially," Shen Caidie replied.

"It's unnecessary," Ye Xiaohong turned her head away. Although Shen Caidie had recruited Gao Fei, Ye Xiaohong was not too concerned. In her view, a mere Gao Fei was nothing to worry about.

Today's conspiracy was orchestrated by Wang Wei himself. There were issues with the batch of jade raw stones, but they were not obvious to the untrained eye. Even experienced experts might struggle to detect the problems, because these jade stones were acquired through special means by Wang Wei. They appeared to be exceptional on the outside but were hollow within.

Such stones were highly deceptive; a slight oversight could result in being duped.

An hour later, the car stopped in front of a warehouse.

"Bang bang clang clang..."

Ye Xiaohong and Shen Caidie got out of the car, pushing the door open.

"Are those raw stones in here?" Shen Caidie looked up and saw that the doors of the warehouse were wide open. There were lots of people gathered, fiercely arguing around a pile of stones. She faintly heard the words "jade raw stones."

"Come on, let's go inside," Ye Xiaohong led Shen Caidie into the warehouse. "Boss Zhang! I've come back!" She shouted to a man with graying hair from a distance.

"Oh, it's President Ye," the man known as Boss Zhang walked over. "So, have you decided? Are you going to take these raw stones?" He gestured toward the people behind him as he continued, "See? These people are all here to buy the stones. If you don't buy them, I will sell to them."

"Don't rush me," Ye Xiaohong said hastily, "I never said I wasn't buying! Oh, right, let me introduce you. This is our company's CEO, Shen Caidie. She heard that Boss Zhang was selling a batch of jade raw stones and made a special trip to take a look."

Shen Caidie nodded at Boss Zhang, "Hello, Boss Zhang! May I be so bold as to ask, why are you disposing of these jade stones at such a low price?"

"What? Didn't President Ye tell you?" A trace of surprise flickered in Boss Zhang's eyes.

"Oh, she did, just not in great detail," Shen Caidie said with a smile.

"I'm not ashamed to say it," Boss Zhang heaved a sigh, "I'm a man with big ambitions, always looking to make more money. Over the years, I've invested in many businesses, like real estate, the jewelry industry, and the automotive parts industry... I invested in over a dozen sectors at once. Initially, I made quite a bit of money, but later I started losing continuously, leading to enormous debts.

To pay them off, I had no choice but to liquidate my assets. If the price is too high, no one would buy them, so I had to lower the prices to raise funds quickly..." he said with a wry smile. "If there had been any other way, I wouldn't be selling my assets so cheaply... but... I was really at my wit's end..." Towards the end, tears glistened in Boss Zhang's eyes.

Boss Zhang's performance was very convincing and gripping, easily fooling Shen Caidie.

"Business is like a battlefield; a moment of inattention can lead to irreversible disaster," Shen Caidie sighed, "That's why we, as businessmen, must always be cautious and careful."

"You're absolutely right, President Shen. It's just that I realized it too late," Boss Zhang sighed deeply again.

"Boss Zhang, may I have a look at these raw stones?" Shen Caidie asked politely.

"Of course, feel free to examine them," Boss Zhang nodded. "These raw stones were transported here from Myanmar. They cost me over a hundred million initially. I hoped to make a huge profit, but who knew... alas..."

Shen Caidie walked over and took out a magnifying glass to inspect the raw stones. At first glance, they really were good! Whether it was the color or the texture, everything seemed fine. According to past experience, the chance of these stones containing jade was very high, and they were likely to be of mid to high-grade quality.

"How is it? These jade raw stones are good, aren't they?" Ye Xiaohong came over and whispered with a laugh.

Shen Caidie nodded, "They do seem quite excellent."

"Then what are you waiting for? Why not hurry up and buy them!" Ye Xiaohong urged, "See those people over there? They are our competitors. If you delay too long, they might snatch them away."

Shen Caidie shook her head, "Wait a bit longer!"

"Wait for what? If we keep waiting, all will be lost!" Seeing Shen Caidie still hesitant, Ye Xiaohong had no choice but to press her further. Taking advantage of Shen Caidie's distraction, Ye Xiaohong shared a signal with Boss Zhang.

With a knowing nod, Boss Zhang then began to raise his voice, "How do you folks like them? If you're interested, buy them now! I can guarantee with a slap on my chest that buying these raw stones for fifty million is a great bargain! It's practically a windfall!

I'm telling you, if I wasn't in such a rush for cash, I would have sent these stones to an auction house for sale, and they would definitely fetch a very high price. Sadly, I don't have that much time... today is bound to be your lucky day to find this deal."

"Fifty million is a bit high..."

"I'll take them for forty-five million."

"I offer forty-six million..."

...

A few men started placing their bids.

Ye Xiaohong pushed Shen Caidie and said urgently, "Hurry and bid, or else someone else will buy the stones!"

Shen Caidie was feeling a bit anxious internally, but she still stood by her position, "Wait a little longer! After Gao Fei arrives and appraises them, if he also thinks there's no problem, then I'll buy the batch of raw stones."
