My Sexy CEO Wife

Jade had finally gotten her hands on the Emperor Green Jade.

Clasping the Emperor Green in both hands, she looked at it with wide eyes, "It's so beautiful! Just incredibly beautiful! It's the epitome of beauty!"

Watching Jade's ecstatic state, Ye Xiaohong suddenly felt a twinge of guilt, but she quickly suppressed it. To gain more in this life, one must not be soft-hearted.

Soft-hearted people do not achieve greatness.

"Caidie, let's go back to the company," Ye Xiaohong said.

"Yes, let's go back," Shen Caidie carefully placed the Emperor Green into the box and then left the shop with it in her arms.

Ye Xiaohong gave the shop owner a meaningful look, then followed Shen Caidie out.

...

Outside the shop.

Shen Caidie said to Ye Xiaohong, "You've done a great service today. After I sell this piece of Emperor Green, I will give you a big bonus! By the way, Xiaohong, how do you think I should carve this jade? Guanyin statues are popular now; should I carve it into a Guanyin statue? The Emperor Green is large enough for that, and I might even have some left over to make a couple of bracelets."

Ye Xiaohong forced a smile, "You decide on your own, I have no objections."

Shen Caidie looked up at Ye Xiaohong, "Why do you seem a bit unhappy?"

"Not at all, I'm quite happy," Ye Xiaohong lied, "It's a great fortune for us to be able to buy the Emperor Green. I'm overjoyed."

"Let's go, let's return to the company. I will devote all my energy to work on this piece of Emperor Green," Shen Caidie called out to Ye Xiaohong, before driving off in the sedan.

Ye Xiaohong let out a muffled sigh, "Shen Caidie, no matter how cautious you are, you still fell for Wang Wei's scheme. I wonder what your face will look like when you realize the Emperor Green is fake? You'll probably be furious."

...

At the same time, Wang Wei received news that Shen Caidie had fallen into the trap and had bought the fake Emperor Green.

"Hahaha..."

Wang Wei laughed heartily, "Shen Caidie! I told you long ago that you can't escape from the palm of my hand!"

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

The phone on the coffee table suddenly rang without warning.

Wang Wei glanced at the phone screen and instantly grew tense. He took a few deep breaths, then picked up the phone and answered, "Grandpa... What made you call me? Do you need something?"

"Didn't Fifth Uncle get you a fake piece of Jade?" an aged voice came from the phone.

"Yes... there is such a matter..."

"Wei, listen to me, I can tolerate you messing around, but there's one thing, make sure you don't cross those with deep connections and get into serious trouble," the voice advised.

"Please rest assured, Grandpa, I know what I'm doing," Wang Wei reassured.

"Make some time to visit your grandma, she misses you," after a few more instructions, Wang Wei's grandpa hung up the phone.

"This Fifth Uncle really infuriates me," Wang Wei cursed, "I told him to keep it a secret, especially from Grandpa... He agreed so readily, but then he went behind my back and betrayed me. It's infuriating."

...

Three days later.

Jade discovered something, something she couldn't accept.

The Emperor Green Jade she had purchased for a huge sum of money was starting to fade, and its surface was covered with numerous tiny cracks.

"What's going on?" Jade's face turned deathly pale, "Fake... it's fake... I've been cheated... cheated... Ye Xiaohong!" Jade frantically took out her phone to call Ye Xiaohong.

"Dial tone… The phone rang for a long time before being picked up.

"Hello? What's the matter?" A lazy voice sounded from the phone.

"Ye Xiaohong!" Jade clenched her teeth, enunciating every word, "The Emperor Green Jade we bought three days ago is fake! Fake!!!"

"Oh, it's fake," Ye Xiaohong's voice was calm, showing no surprise.

Jade took a deep breath, "Tell me the truth, did you know beforehand that the Emperor Green Jade was fake?"

"There's no point in hiding it from you now," Ye Xiaohong said indifferently, "I set up this scam, and I never thought you'd fall for it so easily." Since the secret was out, Ye Xiaohong decided it was time to come clean with Jade and explain everything.

"It was you..." Jade almost fell over, never had she dreamed that her longtime friend and business partner would stab her in the back. "Why! Why did you do this! Why!!!" Jade screamed.

"Because of Young Master Wang," Ye Xiaohong said, "He orchestrated all of this from behind the scenes, and I was just a pawn."

"Wang Wei!!!" A glint of hatred flashed in Jade's eyes, "Ye Xiaohong, I can't understand what's in it for you? Don't forget, you own thirty percent of the company's shares. If the company goes bankrupt, you'll suffer a huge loss too."

"Young Master Wang said he would compensate me for any losses," Ye Xiaohong said nonchalantly.

"Ye Xiaohong, I must have been blind to be friends with someone like you. What's more hateful is that I even partnered with you to start a company! I'm such a fool!" Jade trembled with rage.

"Don't blame me; I had no choice," Ye Xiaohong sighed, "Go find Young Master Wang. If you apologize and admit your mistake, he will return the money to you."

"In your dreams!" Jade shouted, "I would rather beg on the streets than go to Wang Wei!"

"Let's see how long you can stay tough," after saying that, Ye Xiaohong hung up the phone.

"Bastard! Scoundrel! May you never die a good death!!!"

Shen Caidie screamed hysterically.

What to do?

What should I do next?

150 million spent on a fake... If this gets out, I'll definitely be the laughingstock of everyone, but that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is the debt... To buy this fake jade, I borrowed tens of millions...

How am I going to repay this money?

The more Shen Caidie thought about it, the more her head ached. She leaned back in her chair, looked up at the ceiling, and was lost in thought.

She was completely in a state of turmoil and couldn't think of any solution at the moment.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."

Her phone suddenly began to ring; it was Wang Wei calling.

"You still have the nerve to call me!" Shen Caidie pressed the answer button and started to curse at the phone: "Wang Wei! You despicable little man! You will definitely get your comeuppance!!!"

"Such a temper," Wang Wei chuckled: "Shen Caidie! I've told you before, no matter what you do, you can't escape from the palm of my hand. How about it? Didn't I call it?"

"Don't gloat too soon, I'm going to the police to have you arrested," Shen Caidie roared.

"The police will arrest me? Heh... It's a society ruled by law now; arrests require evidence, do you have any?"

"I..."

"Can't produce evidence, can you? Without evidence, how are the police going to arrest me?"

"You..."

"Shen Caidie, just admit defeat, you can't beat me," Wang Wei said with a laugh: "I give you two options. First, be my woman, and I'll help you resolve your current predicament, or second, continue to defy me and the outcome will be... your reputation will be in tatters, and your company will close down. Choose, which path will you take?"

"I won't choose either path!" Shen Caidie said coldly: "Wang Wei, listen to me clearly, even if I die, I will not become your woman!" Having said that, Shen Caidie hung up the phone angrily.

...

Elsewhere.

Wang Wei was momentarily stunned as he held the phone, then a cold smirk appeared on his lips: "Still not bowing your head at this point? Fine! Let's see how long you can hold out!"

After pondering for a moment, Wang Wei picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Spread a message that the president of Lishui Jewelry Company, Shen Caidie, spent over a hundred million on a piece of fake jade and suffered a huge loss. It won't be long before her company goes bankrupt." After giving a few instructions, Wang Wei ended the call.

"Humph!" Wang Wei snorted lightly: "You're still too green to fight me."

Wang Wei was indeed very cunning, trapping Shen Caidie into a dead end by simply setting a few traps.

...

"Rumble..."

The sky that had been clear just now was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and lightning and thunder followed. The rain started pouring down in the blink of an eye.

Shen Caidie stood in front of the window, watching the rain outside, feeling very downhearted. Just now, she had received several calls from friends, all of them asking her for money because they had heard the news that Shen Caidie was on the verge of bankruptcy, so they were rushing to collect their debts.

Owing debts and repaying money is the natural order of things!

"Wang Wei... you're really evil..." The intense hatred flickered in Shen Caidie's eyes. She could easily guess that the news of her impending bankruptcy was definitely spread by Wang Wei.

This move was indeed very vicious!

It pushed Shen Caidie to the edge of a cliff, where one wrong step would see her falling off and becoming completely shattered.

"Knock, knock, knock..."

There came a knock at the door.

"Come in," Shen Caidie said weakly.

"Creak!"

The door was gently pushed open, and three men walked in. These men were senior executives of the company, cultivated by Shen Caidie herself.

Shen Caidie turned around, looked at the three executives: "What do you want?"

"President Shen, there's a rumor going around outside... saying that you're going to be bankrupt... Is that true?" the three executives asked seriously.

"That's not true," Shen Caidie shook her head: "Don't believe the nonsense outside."

"We're relieved to hear that from you," the three executives sighed in relief: "President Shen, you don't know, since the rumor started that you were about to go bankrupt, many employees have started panicking..."

"Go out and tell all the employees to stay calm at their jobs and not to believe the rumors," Shen Caidie said, trying to sound relaxed: "The company's operations are completely normal, and we are definitely not going bankrupt."

"Okay, we'll go now," the three executives turned and left the office.
