My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 33 Exposing the Scam



After coming out of the warehouse, Gao Fei stopped in his tracks, "Shen, how did you get to know this Boss Zhang?"

"It was Ye Xiaohong who brought me here, she said there was a batch of good jade stones and hoped I could buy them," Shen Caidie said, "To be honest, before you came, I was really tempted and nearly bought them. It's lucky you showed up in time and helped me see through this scam."

"Ye Xiaohong brought you here..." A sharp light flashed in Gao Fei's eyes.

"What? Is there a problem?" Shen Caidie asked.

Gao Fei glanced at Shen Caidie, "You should be more careful with Ye Xiaohong in the future."

"You mean... Ye Xiaohong was also involved in today's scam?" Shen Caidie shook her head vigorously, "No, that can't be. Ye Xiaohong and I are good friends; she would never harm me! Besides, we started the company together, and the company's money is also partly hers. There's no benefit for her in designing this scam!"

"I'm just guessing. If you don't believe it, then pretend I didn't say anything. By the way, how are those six pieces of jade doing?"

"I have finished processing three pieces; give me a few more days, and I will have the remaining three pieces processed," Shen Caidie replied.

"Good, I'll wait for your news. I have some other matters to attend to; I'll be going first." After greeting Shen Caidie, Gao Fei drove off in his Mercedes.

Shen Caidie stood in place, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, looking deeply troubled.

"Caidie." Ye Xiaohong walked out of the warehouse, her face full of guilt, "I'm sorry about what happened today... it's my fault... I was also deceived by that Boss Zhang..."

Shen Caidie turned around, her gaze intense as she stared at Ye Xiaohong, "Xiaohong, I want to ask you a question, and I hope you'll answer me truthfully."

"Ask," Ye Xiaohong nodded, "I'll tell you everything I know."

"Did you participate in what happened today?" Shen Caidie asked, word by word.

Ye Xiaohong was stunned; then her expression changed, "What do you mean by that? Do you suspect me of colluding with Boss Zhang to deceive you? How could you think that way! We've been good friends for many years, and I also own part of the company. If I conspired with Boss Zhang to trick you, what would I gain?

If the company goes into trouble, even bankruptcy, because of cash flow problems, I would be in trouble too!" Her face showed extreme anger, "Is it that Mr. Gao said something to you? Caidie, I'm telling you, that Gao is not a good person, you should stay away from him."

"If Mr. Gao hadn't shown up in time today, I would have been deceived big time," Shen Caidie frowned, "Mr. Gao helped us avert a loss of fifty million; that's a huge favor! It's something we'll have to repay in the future!"

"He is the honorary consultant you hired, and it's his responsibility and duty to help you appraise the stones," Ye Xiaohong said coldly.

"I just don't understand why you are so hostile towards Mr. Gao. Did he do something to offend you? Or do your fortunes conflict?" Shen Caidie sighed, "After what happened today, you should have seen Mr. Gao's ability. He's extremely skilled in appraising jade stones and seldom makes mistakes.

Having him as an honorary consultant is a blessing for our company."

"Enough, no more," Ye Xiaohong said impatiently, waving her hand, "I just don't like the sight of Gao Fei! Especially not! No matter what you say, I won't show him any good face."

"You..." Shen Caidie was angered, "Fine, if you are unwilling to deal with Mr. Gao, I won't force you, but I must warn you seriously, do not target Mr. Gao anymore, or I won't let you off the hook." With that, Shen Caidie turned and left.

Ye Xiaohong frowned, her face alternating between light and dark, finally letting out a light sigh, "What happened today... really makes one furious."

Inside the warehouse.

Boss Zhang waved his hand at the bunch of people, "Alright, cut the act, all of you leave." These people were swindlers he had paid to put on a show to deceive Shen Caidie. Now that the plan had fallen through, there was no more need for them.

"Boss Zhang... our payment..."

"Take the money and scram!" Boss Zhang pulled out a wad of cash from his pocket and threw it onto the ground.

"Thank you, Boss Zhang, thank you! If you have any similar gigs in the future, just call us; we'll be at your beck and call," the swindlers picked up the cash and left with smiles on their faces, ready to go and enjoy themselves with the money.

"Ah..." Boss Zhang heaved a deep sigh, "Now that things have gone south, Young Master Wang will definitely be very angry... he might deal with me harshly..."

...

Inside a luxurious villa.

Wang Wei sat on the sofa, one hand holding a glass of red wine, the other holding a cigar, taking a sip of wine and a puff of the cigar, looking extremely pleased with himself. There was no denying that Wang Wei really knew how to enjoy life.

In fact, Wang Wei was glad to have been born into a wealthy family, living a carefree life from childhood, eating the most extravagant meals, wearing the priciest designer clothes, with bodyguards accompanying him on outings, and being able to crush anyone he disliked with just a word!

Wang Wei was extremely satisfied with his current life!

He didn't have to work, yet he had endless money to spend, and with a simple gesture, countless women would flock to him, hoping to win his favor.

Luxury cars, mansions, beautiful women—these things were all too common for Wang Wei, so common that they almost couldn't pique his interest anymore.

One day, Wang Wei met Shen Caidie, and at that moment, he was struck with awe, falling in love at first sight. Afterward, he embarked on a frantic pursuit of Shen Caidie. It was the first time Wang Wei had been moved, the first time he wanted to marry a woman. Unfortunately, his affections were all in vain; Shen Caidie did not accept him at all.

Because of this, Wang Wei was very sad and also very angry. From childhood, he had always gotten whatever he wanted; no one had dared to refuse him, except for this Shen Caidie!

Wang Wei secretly vowed, no matter what, he would have Shen Caidie by any means necessary!

"Squeak!"

The door was gently pushed open, and Ye Xiaohong and Boss Zhang stepped in cautiously.

"Bang!"

Young Master Wang slammed his wine glass onto the floor, "Crash!" The crystal wine glass shattered instantly, and the red wine spilled all over, filling the living room with the smell of alcohol. "You actually have the face to see me!" Young Master Wang's gaze was icy and sharp, "Such a perfect plan, and you managed to mess it up. I really don't know what words to use to describe you—worthless!

Incompetent! Idiots! Bastards!!!" As he said this, Young Master Wang kicked over the coffee table, "Crash..." Everything on the table fell to the ground, and a fine mobile phone broke in half.

"I'm sorry..." Ye Xiaohong and Boss Zhang kept their heads down, not daring to look at Young Master Wang.

After venting for a while, Wang Wei's emotions calmed down slightly. He took a deep puff of his cigar, then exhaled a thick fog, "Tell me, what exactly happened! My plan was supposed to be flawless; how did Shen Caidie see through it!"

"It was Gao Fei!" A flash of hatred crossed Ye Xiaohong's eyes, "Just as Shen Caidie was falling into the trap, out of nowhere, Gao Fei appeared..." Ye Xiaohong recounted the events, exaggerating the facts.

Boss Zhang nodded in agreement, "What President Ye said is right. The plan failed today because of this Gao Fei."

"Gao Fei?" Wang Wei furrowed his brows, "What's the background of this Gao Fei? Why does Shen Caidie trust him so much?"

"Gao Fei is a honorary consultant hired by Shen Caidie. As for his background... I'm not sure..." Ye Xiaohong answered, "But I can see that Shen Caidie values Gao Fei highly. Whatever Gao Fei says, Shen Caidie trusts."

"Boss Zhang, I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself," Wang Wei pointed at Boss Zhang. "Go check out this Gao Fei's background. Once you have the details, come tell me immediately."

"Yes, I'll go right now," Boss Zhang wiped the sweat from his brow gratefully and hurriedly left.

Once Boss Zhang was gone, Ye Xiaohong became even more nervous. She cautiously looked at Wang Wei, "Young Master Wang..."

"Come sit down," Wang Wei beckoned Ye Xiaohong with his hand, "Come over! Sit by my side!"

Ye Xiaohong, not daring to disobey, walked over slowly and sat on the sofa.

"Slap!"

Wang Wei reached out and wrapped his arm around Ye Xiaohong.

"Ah!" Ye Xiaohong sprang up like a startled rabbit, quickly pushing Wang Wei away and standing up, "Young Master Wang, what... what are you doing..."

"Ye Xiaohong, has anyone ever told you that you have a great figure?" Wang Wei said, "Out of all the women I've seen, you have the best figure. Any more would be bulky, any less would be skinny. It's simply a masterpiece from heaven."

"You flatter me, Young Master Wang..." Ye Xiaohong squeezed out a smile on her face.

"Stay with me tonight," Wang Wei said, startling Ye Xiaohong.

"Young Master Wang, please... don't joke with me... this kind of joke isn't funny at all..."

"Do I look like I'm joking?"

"Young Master Wang... why... why would you..."

"Why? Is being with me that difficult for you? Does my status not match yours?" Wang Wei's face darkened.

"No, I didn't mean that," Ye Xiaohong quickly waved her hands.

"If that's not what you meant, then come keep me company," Wang Wei said domineeringly. "Ye Xiaohong, I know what's in your heart. You deliberately got close to me because you wanted to rely on this big tree, so you could enjoy the shade later, right? Now I'm giving you the chance. As long as you become my woman, I guarantee I'll help you with all my might.

I'll make you a powerful woman who dominates the business world!"

"I..." Ye Xiaohong was struggling internally. Indeed, she had intended to grab onto Wang Wei, this big tree, but she had never thought about becoming Wang Wei's woman. Now, with Wang Wei's sudden demand, Ye Xiaohong was caught off guard.
