My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 47 Destiny



"I just want to ask you one question!" Wang Changtian said with a dark expression, "Do you or do you not have a way to cure my grandson's illness!"

"This..." The doctors looked at each other without saying a word.

"Is there a way or not!" Wang Changtian asked again.

"Mr. Wang, I'll be frank with you," said the attending physician Song Dehai with a bitter smile, "your grandson's condition is not optimistic... if things go poorly... he might end up paralyzed in bed..."

"What!" Wang Changtian's eyes suddenly bulged, "Say that again!"

With gritted teeth, Song Dehai repeated, "... at best paralyzed in bed, at worst, life-threatening."

"Nonsense!" Wang Changtian flew into a rage, pointing at Song Dehai's nose and cursing, "You bunch of quacks! All you do is spread alarm without any real talent! You're just a waste of food! Transfer hospitals, immediately! Transfer to the capital's hospital, let the best doctors in the capital treat my grandson's illness!"

You could even transfer to a hospital abroad, but your grandson's illness would still be incurable! Song Dehai muttered to himself, a thought he only dared to entertain internally, never out loud.

The other doctors also maintained silence. Wang Changtian's status was lofty, not someone they could afford to offend, and even as he pointed and shouted at them, they could only endure it.

Under Wang Changtian's firm demand, the hospital had no choice but to process Wang Wei's transfer. It was then that Wang Changtian's influence became apparent, as he directly chartered a helicopter to fly the still unconscious Wang Wei to the capital.

Upon arrival at the capital's hospital, after a consultation with authoritative experts, the conclusion was equally bleak.

Atrophy of the limbs, muscular necrosis, a ninety percent chance of paralysis.

"How could this be... how could this be..." Wang Changtian slumped in his chair, his eyes lifeless, murmuring to himself, "This can't be real... This can't be real..."

"It's this hospital that's inadequate!"

"Seek treatment abroad!"

"Medical conditions are better overseas than at home!"

Wang Changtian made his decision in an instant, to take Wang Wei abroad for treatment.

The standards of medical care abroad were indeed higher than at home, but... even foreign hospitals weren't capable of saving Wang Wei!

The doctors in Southern City couldn't cure him, neither could the doctors in the capital, and not even the foreign doctors... It looked like Wang Wei's life was effectively over.

"Grandpa... I'm in so much pain... It's unbearable..." Wang Wei lay in the hospital bed, crying miserably, having lost sensation in his hands and feet since the previous day.

"Don't worry, your grandpa will definitely cure you!" Wang Changtian gently stroked Wang Wei's face, "Even if it costs all I have, I will heal you!" After Wang Wei fell asleep, Wang Changtian stood up and walked out of the hospital room.

"Mr. Wang," a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner approached, calling him "Ham," the lead physician for Wang Wei, a man of some renown in the medical world overseas: "Do you have a moment? I'd like to discuss the patient's condition with you." Ham had studied previously in Huaxia, so he spoke fluent Huaxia language.

"Mr. Ham, please tell me the truth, is there much hope for my grandson's recovery?" Wang Changtian asked gravely.

Ham shook his head, "The chances are slim."

Wang Changtian's face twitched a few times, "Mr. Ham, I have another question, and I hope you can provide an answer."

"Go ahead, I'll answer truthfully as long as I know," Ham nodded.

"My grandson has always been healthy, hardly sick a day in his life, but this time... he fell ill out of the blue, then ended up paralyzed in bed. Can you tell me what exactly happened?" Wang Changtian asked.

"This... I'm not sure of the specific reasons..." Ham shook his head, "However... I've found some odd injuries on your grandson... Has he been hurt recently?"

"Correct, my grandson was indeed injured recently, he was beaten, and it was quite severe," Wang Changtian said, nodding.

"Sometimes... severe injuries can leave complications," Ham said cautiously.

"Complications?" Wang Changtian was stunned.

Ham nodded, "Yes, complications! I personally suspect... that the strange illness afflicting your grandson... might be triggered by complications, of course, this is just my speculation, and there's no factual basis yet."

"It must be so!" A fierce light flashed in Wang Changtian's eyes, "My grandson's body has always been healthy. Ever since he was beaten, his condition started to deteriorate, and then he simply fell sick and ended up paralyzed in bed... Gao Fei, Shen Caidie!!!

It's you, you are the ones who caused my grandson to be paralyzed, I will not let you off!!!" Ultimately, Wang Changtian still blamed Gao Fei and Shen Caidie for his grandson's plight.

Such is what one calls fate, I suppose!

It seems predestined by the heavens that Wang Changtian and Gao Fei would be incompatible as fire and water!

"Mr. Ham, as long as you can cure my grandson's illness, I'll give you a hundred million US dollars!"

"... I'll do my best!" Ham's eyelids twitched, clearly drawn by the lure of a hundred million dollars.

...

The sun was shining brightly.

Not a cloud in sight.

A brand-new Mercedes rushed down the highway—inside, seen through the windows, were two people, a man and a woman, Gao Fei and Shen Caidie.

They were headed to Myanmar for the Jadeite Public Market.

The Jadeite Public Market was a grand event, held once a year, attracting countless people each time it took place.

"Mr. Gao, according to past practice, the Jadeite Public Market runs for about half a month, during which you can freely choose any stones," Shen Caidie said with a smile. "Mr. Gao, I have a premonition that this time, the Jadeite Public Market is definitely an opportunity, an opportunity for you to make a name for yourself worldwide."

"Hehe..." Gao Fei smiled with his mouth open. "To tell you the truth, I'm not interested in making a name for myself. What interests me is making money. Nowadays, everything is fake; only money is real. With money, one can have a comfortable life and be looked up to." He paused before adding, "By the way, will the only three Jade Kings from Huaxia participate in the Jadeite Public Market?"

"They probably will," Shen Caidie nodded. "They came both the year before last and last year and even served as judges for the competition committee."

"Competition committee? What's that?" Gao Fei asked in confusion.

"According to tradition, after the Jadeite Public Market concludes, the Myanmar officials host a grand competition. Anyone can participate, but the registration fee is very high, at ten million. As long as you pay ten million, you can enter the competition.

If you're lucky enough to win the championship, you will receive an honorary certificate issued by the Myanmar government and a substantial cash prize," Shen Caidie explained.

"The registration fee is ten million? That's outright robbery!" Gao Fei was taken aback. "There can't be that many people participating every year, right?"

"Wrong!" Shen Caidie shook her head. "The exact opposite of what you said! Every year, many people take part in the competition. The least we've had was five hundred participants, and the most was over three thousand."

"Over three thousand?" Gao Fei's eyes widened. "Each person pays ten million, ten people that's one hundred million, a hundred people is one billion, one thousand people is one hundred billion, three thousand people—that's... three hundred billion... Holy shit! Just by moving their lips, they can rake in three hundred billion; this money is way too easy to make!"

Shen Caidie nodded with a sigh, "For some people, making money really is easy."

"You just mentioned there's a prize for the competition champion?"

"That's right."

"How much is the prize money?"

"The prize money varies each year. Last year it was one billion. As for this year's prize money, it's not clear yet, but I guess it definitely won't be less than one billion."

"One billion? That's a lot! No wonder so many people take part in the competition. By the way, what does the competition involve?"

"Gambling Stone," Shen Caidie explained. "The competition is divided into preliminary rounds, semifinals, and finals. After three rounds, the person with the highest score is the champion." She raised an eyebrow at Gao Fei, "What do you say? Are you tempted? Maybe you want to join the competition, too? With your skills, you might really win the championship!"

"Hearing you say that, I'm actually somewhat tempted," Gao Fei said, laughing.

After arriving in Myanmar, the two found a hotel to stay in.

They had a simple meal before returning to their respective rooms to rest.

A quiet night passed.

The next morning, Shen Caidie took Gao Fei sightseeing since she was familiar with the area from her visit last year and served as a good guide for him.

Having grown accustomed to customs back at home, Gao Fei felt a bit out of place in a different country all of a sudden.

"How do you like it? The environment here is not bad, right?" Shen Caidie asked.

Gao Fei nodded, "It's alright."

"See that? Over there is a small lake," Shen Caidie pointed ahead and continued, "That used to be wasteland, which was then turned into a lake. Come on, let's go rowing and do a bit of fishing too." She pulled Gao Fei to the lakeside, rented a boat, and they both rowed towards the center of the lake.

The sunlight, blue sky, white clouds, lake, and boat combined to create a beautiful scene.

Gao Fei sat at the bow, gazing at the distant mountains, feeling refreshed, "This place is beautiful! The mountains, the water, the people! Living here for a lifetime would surely be joyous."

"I've already thought it through," Shen Caidie said as she rowed. "When I retire, I'll come here to live out my days—strolling around, rowing boats, fishing... What a wonderful life."

"Hmm, that's a good idea," Gao Fei nodded. "Retiring here would indeed be nice."

When their boat reached the center of the lake, they put down the oars and took out fishing rods to start fishing. Fishing was a task that required patience; without it, one couldn't catch any fish.

"Mr. Gao, let's have a competition to see who catches the most fish! The loser buys dinner! What do you think?" Shen Caidie proposed.

Gao Fei nodded, "Sure."
