My Sexy CEO Wife

After an hour of competition, Shen Caidie won in the end, and as agreed, Gao Fei had to treat Shen Caidie to a meal.

They picked a restaurant at random, ordered some dishes casually, and then sat around the dining table, eating and drinking with laughter and conversation.

The specialties of Myanmar were quite good, such as tea leaf salad, fish powder soup, curry crab, and Myanmar prawns, etc. The flavors of these dishes were very appealing, and they were very tasty to eat, plus there was the locally brewed white spirit of Myanmar, which also had a very unique taste.

After they were full and had had enough to drink, the two got up to go to the front desk to pay the bill, which came to more than five thousand yuan, causing Gao Fei some heartache.

"Thud!"

A dull sound suddenly came from behind them.

Gao Fei and Shen Caidie turned around in surprise to see an elderly man with graying hair fallen on the ground, foaming at the mouth, convulsing all over, and his face terribly pale.

"Dad, what's wrong with you? Dad, don't scare me, Dad!!" A middle-aged man kneeled beside the elderly man, calling out in panic.

"Ugh... Ugh..." After a few violent convulsions, the elderly man stopped moving.

"Dad, Dad!!!" The middle-aged man was terrified, shaking the elderly man's body hard, and calling out loudly, "Dad, wake up, Dad, don't scare me, Dad..." No matter how the middle-aged man shouted, the elderly man did not respond, and in the end, the middle-aged man started to cry desperately, a grown man kneeling and crying out loud in the restaurant's hall.

That's when Gao Fei approached from the side, "Move aside quickly! I know how to save your father!" Gao Fei squatted down and placed his hand on the elderly man's neck.

"You can save my father?" The middle-aged man's face lit up with hope, "Please, you must save my father! I'll make sure to repay you well later!"

"Shut your mouth, don't disturb me!" Gao Fei said.

"Uh..." The middle-aged man immediately closed his mouth, watching Gao Fei with a nervous face.

"Tap tap!"

Gao Fei extended his fingers and tapped lightly on the elderly man's neck twice, then the elderly man opened his mouth and spat out a thick glob of phlegm, and immediately after, he opened his eyes...

"Dad! You're awake! Dad! You really scared me just now!" Seeing the elderly man waking up, the middle-aged man was extremely excited, "Dad, it was this gentleman who saved you, you must repay him well."

The elderly man stood up from the ground, looking at Gao Fei with gratitude, "Thanks to the gentleman's intervention today, otherwise... this old life of mine would have been lost here."

Gao Fei waved his hand dismissively, "It's nothing, not worth mentioning." When the elderly man had fallen to the ground earlier, Gao Fei used his "Clairvoyance" to see that a thick blob of phlegm was stuck in the man's trachea, which was the reason for his breathing difficulty leading to asphyxiation. Simply removing the phlegm would naturally resolve the issue.

Of course, the situation was still very dangerous, and had Gao Fei not intervened in time, there was a real risk that the elderly man might have suffocated to death.

"May I have the honor of knowing your name, sir?" The elderly man asked politely.

"Oh, my name is Gao Fei." Gao Fei gave his name.

"Listening to Mr. Gao's accent, you're not a local, are you?"

"No, I'm from out of town, here for the Jadeite Public Market," Gao Fei responded.

"I am Luo Mingshan, an overseas Chinese immigrant, oh, here's my business card." The elderly man handed Gao Fei an exquisitely made business card.

"Jade Carving Master?" Gao Fei glanced at the card, his eyes showing a look of surprise.

Luo Mingshan nodded, "Yes, I am a Jade Carving Master."

"Are you Mr. Luo?" Shen Caidie exclaimed, "Mr. Luo, you are my idol! I truly admire you so much!"

"You know Mr. Luo?" Gao Fei asked with surprise.

"Mr. Luo is a top-tier master in the jade carving industry!" A look of admiration appeared on Shen Caidie's face, "Jade ware carved by his hands multiplies in value... many of the precious jade ware pieces that are well known have been carved by Mr. Luo... I have wanted to apprentice under Mr. Luo for a long time but never had the chance...

I didn't expect to meet Mr. Luo here today..." Seeing the person she greatly admired, Shen Caidie was very excited.

"Haha..." Luo Mingshan chuckled, "You flatter me, I'm not as great as you say..."

"How can you not be!" Shen Caidie hastily said, "Mr. Luo, don't be modest... In my eyes, you are the greatest carving master. I've always imitated your carving techniques, and over the years, I've carved quite a few items..."

"Oh? You're a carver too?" Luo Mingshan looked surprised.

Shen Caidie nodded shyly, "I've just reached entry level... I am nowhere close to a master like you." She paused for a moment, "Mr. Luo, may I apprentice under you?" Shen Caidie knew her request was a bit abrupt, but she really wanted to become Luo Mingshan's student. If she could learn even a tenth of Luo Mingshan's skill, she would be able to make a name for herself in the jade carving industry.

"Well..." Luo Mingshan hesitated for a moment, "Let's do this, come to my studio when you have time to show me your skill. If you really have talent, I'll take you on." He gave Shen Caidie this opportunity solely because of the face Gao Fei had given him.

"Then it's settled," said Shen Caidie excitedly.

"I'm feeling a bit unwell, so I'll head back first. If you encounter any troubles in Myanmar, just give me a call. I still have some influence here." After saying goodbye to Gao Fei and Shen Caidie, Luo Mingshan left with the support of his son. As people age, their bodies become weaker; it's a painful and helpless thing.

"This trip to Myanmar was really worth it," Shen Caidie said excitedly. "Being accepted as an apprentice by Master Luo, learning top-notch carving techniques, I, Shen Caidie, will also become a great master of carving!"

"Heh heh…" Gao Fei laughed. "Aren't you getting excited a bit too early? They only said they'd give you a chance, they didn't say they would definitely accept you."

"I have great confidence in my own abilities!" Shen Caidie said, full of conviction. "As long as I show off my carving skills, Master Luo will definitely accept me! It's an absolute certainty! I am destined to become Luo's disciple, and not just any disciple, but the most outstanding one!"

"Blow your own trumpet, keep blowing, it's not like bragging is against the law," Gao Fei said with a curl of his lip.

"You look down on me?" Shen Caidie raised her eyebrows. "Do you dare to make a bet with me?"

"What's the bet?"

"The bet is whether I can become Master Luo's disciple or not!"

"What's the wager?"

"A meal! A super luxurious feast!"

"Fine! Let's bet, who's afraid of whom! If you win, I'll take you to the most luxurious hotel for a big feast!"

"A gentleman's word!"

"As fast as a horse can't recapture it!"

"Whoever reneges is a little puppy dog!"

...

The next day, Gao Fei and Shen Caidie, at the invitation of Luo Mingshan, arrived at Luo Mingshan's workshop located in the suburbs.

The workshop was very spacious, at least three hundred square meters large, and the interior was luxuriously decorated. Luo Mingshan had spent over thirty million to build this studio at the time, and over the decades, its value had increased several times over. Someone once offered one billion to buy the studio, but Luo Mingshan refused.

At Luo Mingshan's invitation, Shen Caidie began to demonstrate her carving skills.

At first, Luo Mingshan was calm, but as he watched, his expression changed. "Not bad, really not bad, Ms. Shen's carving skills are quite good..."

"Master Luo, are you satisfied with my skills? Will you accept me as your disciple?" Shen Caidie asked.

"Satisfied! I'm very satisfied! You have great talent for carving! With a bit of guidance, your skills will improve by leaps and bounds," Luo Mingshan nodded, pleased. "Alright, I will take you under my wing today!"

"Ah, this is fantastic!" Shen Caidie exclaimed joyfully, jumping up and down. "Master Luo... oh, no, now I should address you as Master, please accept your disciple's bow!" Saying that, Shen Caidie bowed deeply to Luo Mingshan. "I will study diligently and definitely won't let Master down!"

"Good, good," Luo Mingshan said, smiling and nodding. "I will pass on all my skills to you, how much you can learn will depend on your own talent."

Shen Caidie raised her eyebrows at Gao Fei and whispered, "You lost! Remember to treat me to a big feast!"

Gao Fei curled his lip. "Don't worry, I won't welsh. Seeing you get accepted as Luo Mingshan's apprentice, I'm really happy for you."

"Don't go anywhere at noon, stay for lunch," Luo Mingshan extended an invitation to Gao Fei and Shen Caidie. "I will cook myself today, let you taste my culinary skills."

"You two are in for a treat today," said Luo Mingshan's son, Luo Zhongxing, with a laugh. "My father's culinary skills are superb, even better than the chefs at five-star hotels."

"Really!" Gao Fei laughed. "Then today I must taste for myself just how high Master Luo's culinary skills are!"

...

At noon.

Master Luo Mingshan went to the kitchen himself and prepared a table full of delicious dishes, including fish, meat, and lobster. In the end, Master Luo Mingshan also brought out a jar of treasured wine, "This is authentic Daughter's Red!" Luo Mingshan pointed at the jar and said, "I have been storing it for a full thirty years, never willing to drink it!

Today, I specially took it out to welcome both of you!"

"Ah, we are in for a treat today," Gao Fei laughed.

Shen Caidie was very helpful at the moment, placing the cleaned glasses in front of everyone, then gently opening the sealed jar of wine, releasing a heady aroma into the air.

"Hmm, it smells wonderful!" Gao Fei sniffed deeply. "It's so fragrant just from the smell, what will it taste like?"

Shen Caidie held the jar with both hands, filling up every empty glass on the table.

Gao Fei couldn't wait to pick up a glass and took a gentle sip. "Mmm! Good wine! Such wonderful wine! This is the best wine I've ever had!" Gao Fei exclaimed, then drained the rest of the wine in his glass. "Full-bodied and smooth!

Not too oily! A fine wine indeed, this is absolutely a fine wine!"
