My Sexy CEO Wife

As soon as Lu Pingguan and others entered the building, the Niu family arrived.

"Dr. Gao! Why didn't you notify me in advance about your company's opening?" Niu Chongtian complained with a frown, "You clearly didn't take me seriously! If it weren't for Lu Pingguan telling me, I would've had no idea your company was launching today."

"I mainly didn't want to trouble you, Elder Niu... "

"What's so troubling about it? Isn't it just giving a gift and offering congratulations? What could be so troubling about that?"

"... Okay, I made a mistake this time. I'll definitely pay attention next time."

"That's more like it."

After presenting the gifts and red envelopes, Niu Chongtian led a group of people into the building.

In the following time, many other big shots arrived, all coming from the capital. Each of them had been treated by Gao Fei before.

By the end, Meng Xiaoyu also made an appearance, with her long hair draped over her shoulders, wearing sunglasses, and dressed in a pure white long dress, holding a flower basket in her hand. She looked ethereal and exceptionally beautiful. Upon Meng Xiaoyu's arrival, Gao Fei showed great welcome.

"Mr. Gao, congratulations," Meng Xiaoyu said as she set down the flower basket, stepped forward gracefully, and opened her arms to give Gao Fei a big hug.

"Uh..." Gao Fei was completely stunned. He had never dreamed that Meng Xiaoyu would make such a move, hugging him in public like this... Wasn't this a bit too, you know?

"Here's my red envelope." After handing over her red envelope, Meng Xiaoyu walked elegantly into the building.

No sooner had Meng Xiaoyu left than Lu Hao came up with a mischievous grin, "A beauty's embrace must feel nice, right?"

"Bugger off!" Gao Fei glared at Lu Hao.

"Oh? You're blushing? Such a grown man and still getting shy! From what I can tell, you must be a 'virgin'!" Before Gao Fei could get angry, Lu Hao had already dashed off.

"You little pest! Don't let me catch you, or you'll see what's coming," Gao Fei huffed.

"Vroom!"

A motorcycle stopped in front of the building, and a woman got off. On closer inspection, it turned out to be Liu Mengyao.

"Gao Fei, you're quite something! Becoming a big boss so quickly!" Liu Mengyao approached, punching Gao Fei's shoulder in a playful, symbolic gesture without really using force. Liu Mengyao had always been straightforward, never caring about others' opinions.

"You came too." Gao Fei smiled.

"Of course, I had to come for your company's opening." Liu Mengyao fumbled in her pocket, then pulled out a red envelope, "Just a small token, please accept it." After Gao Fei accepted the red envelope, Liu Mengyao added, "You know, my salary isn't high, and my monthly expenses are quite substantial, so I can't really save much money, hence..."

Gao Fei laughed, "Just having you come here in person makes me happy. As for the red envelope... it really doesn't matter whether you bring one or not."

"Glad you understand. I'll leave you to it; I'm going to take a look inside." Liu Mengyao strode into the building.

Today, Gao Fei was definitely in the limelight. Maybe he would even make the papers tomorrow. In fact, Gao Fei wanted to keep a low profile, but things didn't turn out as he had hoped. Since so many guests had come, he might as well celebrate properly.

...

"What an impressive setup."

"So many guests."

"The owner of that building across the street must be no ordinary person."

"Of course not, could an ordinary person buy an entire building?"

"Have you noticed? Those entering the building... they look familiar, like we've seen them somewhere before."

"Hey, now that you mention it, I feel the same way."

"Damn... I remember now..."

"Remember what?"

"I know where I've seen them before, on TV! They've been on the news, all impressive figures."

"Impossible, aren't you just seeing things? Maybe they just look similar."

"No, I'm not seeing things, absolutely not! They are the big shots who often appear on television."

...

A group of bystanders gathered together whispering in low voices, each one of them wearing a look of shock on their faces.

At noon, the banquet officially started. Due to an underestimation beforehand, there weren't enough seats, so Gao Fei had no choice but to call nearby hotels to have them deliver an additional dozen tables.

Standing at the front, Gao Fei held up his glass, "The first toast is to everyone here. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend my company's opening ceremony." With that, Gao Fei tilted his head back and poured the whole glass down his throat.

The waitstaff hurried over to refill his glass. These servers were hired from hotels and were paid by the hour.

"The second toast is also to everyone. I hope you will all continue to look after my company in the future." With that, Gao Fei again drained his glass in one gulp.

```

By the time the third glass of wine was filled, Gao Fei didn't rush to drink it. Instead, he looked at everyone present and slowly said, "I was born into a farming family, living a life with my face towards the soil and my back to the sky. Since I became sensible, I swore that I would work hard to change our impoverished life... After many years of effort, I've done it, and I've done it very well...

This glass of wine is for my parents, to thank them for raising me and nurturing me! I love them!" Having said that, Gao Fei tilted his head back and drained the glass.

Gao Fei was quite disappointed that his parents hadn't come to attend the opening ceremony of the company. They had already promised him that they would come, but just yesterday they called to say something urgent had come up and they couldn't make it. After hanging up the phone, Gao Fei couldn't express how frustrated he was.

After the banquet ended, Gao Fei led a group of guests on a tour of the company. When these guests saw the Six-color Jadeite representing fortune, prosperity, longevity, happiness, and prestige, they were all stunned. They had lived for so long but had never seen such beautiful jade. Some even made on-the-spot offers to purchase it at high prices, but Gao Fei refused.

The Six-color Jadeite was the company's treasure, not for sale, at least not for the time being.

After visiting the company, the group of guests gradually left.

Before leaving, these guests signed many orders with Gao Fei, amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars in value, with profits also reaching over a hundred million. To have such a substantial income on the first day of business was indeed rare.

"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just give me a call. In Huaxia, my word still carries some weight," Lu Pingguan said before he left.

"I have spoken with officials from Southern City and asked them to take extra care of you," were the parting words from Niu Chongtian.

"I'll introduce some sales talents to you later. With their help, your job will be much easier," Luo Mingshan said. "Also, whenever you want me to carve jade, just let me know."

"I can be the spokesperson for your company, for free, without charging a penny," said Meng Xiaoyu, her bright eyes twinkling.

"I plan to form a strategic alliance with you. From now on, we will advance and retreat together in the business world," Shen Caidie said with a smile.

"Your company happens to be within my jurisdiction, so if you have any issues, just come to me—it'll be quite effective," Liu Mengyao said in a carefree manner.

"Brother Fei, I have something to tell you…" Lu Hao pulled Gao Fei aside and said with a sneaky smile, "Meng Xiaoyu has taken a fancy to you and wants me to play matchmaker. What do you think? If you agree, I'll arrange a meeting for you."

Gao Fei glanced at Lu Hao indifferently, "Do you know what I really want to do right now?"

"What?"

"Sew your mouth shut."

"Uh..."

"If you talk to me about these irrelevant things again in the future, I'll take a needle and sew your mouth shut so that you won't be able to speak for the rest of your life." Having dropped that line, Gao Fei walked away.

Lu Hao waved his fist at Gao Fei's retreating figure, "So prudish! What's there to pretend? I don't believe you're not interested in women!" Having his goodwill regarded as ill will truly frustrated Lu Hao.

It seems one really cannot afford to be too kind these days.

...

At dusk,

Gao Fei received a phone call from his mother.

"Xiao Fei, your dad and I couldn't attend your company's opening ceremony today, are you angry?" his mother asked.

"No, how could I be angry?" Gao Fei laughed.

"Really not?"

"Really not!"

"Then I'm relieved... Xiao Fei, it isn't that we didn't want to go, we just really bumped into an emergency and couldn't get away..."

"I know it's fine, and once you have time, I'll bring you over to stay for a few days."

"Xiao Fei, don't work too hard out there. Money isn't made in a day; take good care of yourself."

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of myself. Actually, what I'm most concerned about is you two. When I'm not by your side, if you encounter any problems..."

"What problems could we encounter? You're overthinking," his mother laughed. "Seeing that you've become successful in your career now, your dad and I are really happy. The only thing missing is that you still don't have a partner..."

Here it comes again! Gao Fei curled his lips, "Mom, haven't I told you? Once my career stabilizes, I'll find you a very beautiful daughter-in-law, and then I'll have a whole bunch of chubby grandsons for you."

"Do you think you're birthing piglets? Having a whole bunch!" his mother scolded with a laugh, "Just give me one grandson, and I'll be satisfied."

The mother and son talked for a long time before ending the call.

Gao Fei put down the phone and sighed softly, "The hardest bond to break in this world is the love of one's parents. Dad, Mom, to give you a good life, I must continue to work hard."

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.

The weather started to get cooler, and pedestrians on the streets had all switched to warm clothes.

After more than a month of operation, Gao Fei's company had already gotten on the right track. From what can be seen during this period, the business was still quite good. As long as the profit came from jade and antiques, the Hundred Diseases Cure Pill had a lower price, so the profit was relatively less.

Gao Fei had already established a long-term cooperation with Myanmar, and every so often, Myanmar would send over a large batch of jade raw stones. Gao Fei would personally select them, keeping the raw stones he liked and directly returning the ones he didn't.

As for the source of antiques, that was a bit more troublesome. Gao Fei especially put out a sign offering high prices for all kinds of antiques. After the sign went up, large numbers of people came every day hoping to sell antiques. Unfortunately, most of them were fakes. Gao Fei, unable to cope alone, hired several antique appraisers. With their assistance, Gao Fei's job became much easier.

Gao Fei had set a rule for himself: he would only absorb the Spiritual Energy from antiques dating before the Yuan Dynasty. He wouldn't touch antiques from after the Yuan Dynasty, partly because the Spiritual Energy was too little and not worth absorbing, and partly because he wanted to leave some goods for the company to sell.

Once the Spiritual Energy inside an antique was absorbed, that piece of antique would be ruined, losing all its value.
