My Sexy CEO Wife

Chapter 15: Robbery

Liu Mengyao nodded, "You go to the crime scene to collect evidence, and I'll go to the hospital to question that old man. Let's clear things up as soon as possible."

"Okay," the male police officer nodded in response.

After that, the two went their separate ways, one to the crime scene and the other to the hospital.

...

In the dimly lit interrogation room.

Gao Fei sat in the chair, his face looking very unpleasant.

"It's really too hard to be a good person these days," Gao Fei sighed softly, "Given the situation, it seems I won't be able to leave for a while. Instead of wasting time waiting, I might as well cultivate." With that thought, Gao Fei closed his eyes and began to cultivate the Demon God Heritage.

After some time cultivating, Gao Fei had generated a breath of qi within him, which usually lay dormant in his dantian. Whenever he cultivated, this breath would surge out, wandering slowly through his meridians. With each circuit, the meridians became stronger and his body more robust.

"Bang!"

An acupoint in his left shoulder burst open, and a sharp pain suddenly struck, causing Gao Fei to grimace in pain involuntarily.

After the acupoint was opened, the breath of qi weakened and then slowly receded back to the dantian.

"Phew..."

Gao Fei opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a turbid breath, "Two major acupoints have been opened. Just one more and I can reach the Qi Gathering Stage." After days of cultivation, he finally saw a glimmer of dawn.

According to the Demon God Heritage, there are two major acupoints in the shoulders of the human body. Opening these two acupoints can facilitate the throughflow of the meridians, allowing one to break through to the Qi Gathering Stage in one fell swoop.

The acupoint in his left shoulder had been opened, and if he could open the acupoint in his right shoulder, he could enter the Qi Gathering Stage and then start to cultivate the Heavenly Eye.

Just as Gao Fei was quietly pleased with himself, the iron door to the interrogation room was suddenly pushed open, and Liu Mengyao, with a frosty countenance, stepped in.

"How did it go? Have things been cleared up?" Gao Fei lifted his eyelids and thought to himself, Liu Mengyao really was quite attractive, especially her figure, which was incredibly hot—truly easy on the eyes. However, Liu Mengyao's temper was too explosive, practically a tyrannosaurus. When dealing with a woman like her, one had to stay on guard, never knowing when you might face her violent wrath.

"Very!" Liu Mengyao snorted coldly, "You're lucky, kid! Someone recorded the incident on their phone..." She paused, "It was indeed that old man framing you..."

"At last, the false accusation is lifted." Gao Fei stood up from the chair, "It wasn't easy! So, can I go now?"

"Sign here, and you're free to go," Liu Mengyao tossed a record book onto the table.

Gao Fei walked over, picked up the pen, and wrote down his name, "Pretty and a great figure, just with a temper too explosive and prone to using force. I wonder which man would dare to marry you."

"What did you say?" Liu Mengyao's eyes flared up instantly.

"I said you're attractive, just a bit too hot-headed. I fear no man would dare to marry you," said Gao Fei.

"Bang!"

Liu Mengyao slammed the table fiercely, giving Gao Fei a fierce glare, "Keep spouting nonsense and I'll tear your mouth apart!" Actually, it wasn't just Gao Fei who had said such things about her; many friends and relatives had advised her to temper her fiery personality, or she would indeed have trouble finding a husband in the future.

"Fine, pretend I didn't say anything." Gao Fei shrugged and walked away with long strides.

Liu Mengyao shook her fist fiercely at Gao Fei's retreating figure, "Kid, you'd better not fall into my hands again, or I will deal with you ruthlessly!" The brief interaction had left a terrible impression on Liu Mengyao, and that bad impression lasted a long time until a series of incidents occurred... Their relationship gradually improved, but of course, that's a story for another time and not worth mentioning now.

...

By the time he left the police station, it was already past 11 PM. The buses had stopped running a long time ago, so Gao Fei had no choice but to take a taxi home.

Gao Fei was always frugal because he wasn't well-off; he would take a bus whenever possible and only took a taxi when there was no other option.

After returning home, Gao Fei took off his clothes and had a hot bath. Afterwards, he sat on the bed and began to cultivate.

Gao Fei spent the entire night trying to break through the acupoint in his right shoulder. After over a dozen attempts, all ended in failure. Eventually, he could no longer endure and fell asleep on the bed, not waking up until the afternoon of the following day.

After getting up and freshening up, Gao Fei went out for a meal before continuing to cultivate. On his way back, he bought two large boxes of instant noodles.

Time flew, and a week passed in the blink of an eye.

During this week, Gao Fei almost never left his home, dedicating all his time to cultivation. Whenever he was hungry, he ate a couple of packs of instant noodles, and when he was tired, he'd sleep. Upon waking, he would immediately resume his cultivation.

Under this intense regime, Gao Fei finally made decisive progress.

"Boom!"

The acupoint on Gao Fei's right shoulder was finally broken through, and then he felt as if he had eaten Ginseng fruit, with an indescribable comfort throughout his body, from all hundred thousand pores.

"I did it!"

"I finally did it!"

"I have finally entered the Qi Gathering Stage!"

"It wasn't easy at all!"

Gao Fei bounced around excitedly, his efforts over the past several days had finally paid off.

"Hmm, strike the iron while it's hot, let's cultivate the Heavenly Eye as well." Once Gao Fei calmed his excitement, he sat cross-legged on the bed and started to cultivate the Heavenly Eye. There is a saying, "When water flows, a channel is formed," and that was the situation Gao Fei faced. He cultivated the Heavenly Eye with almost no effort at all.

Just as recorded in the Demon God Heritage, once you reach the First Layer of the Qi Gathering Stage, you can easily cultivate the Heavenly Eye.

"Whoosh!"

The moment Gao Fei opened his eyes, two beams of light flashed from his eyes.

"I really have clairvoyance..."

Under Gao Fei's gaze, the wall opposite slowly became transparent, and then Gao Fei saw the situation in the next room... a man and a woman were engaged in activities not suitable for children on the bed... Gao Fei laughed outright, thinking to himself: Doing this in broad daylight, they really aren't afraid of being seen! The woman is not bad looking, the man, however, is a bit scruffy, and the two of them don't match in age...

After watching for a while, Gao Fei retracted his gaze.

Afterward, Gao Fei carried out a few experiments and finally concluded: He indeed possessed clairvoyance! Moreover, he could control it freely, using it whenever he wanted, and not using it when he didn't.

"Uh..." Gao Fei stood up and stretched a big stretch: "Now that I have clairvoyance, starting today, I can really embark on a grand endeavor."

"Gurgle..."

His stomach rumbled.

"I've wronged you these past few days." Gao Fei patted his stomach: "Today, I'll treat you well! Let's go out for a big meal!" After washing his face and changing his clothes, Gao Fei opened the door and walked out.

While descending the stairs, Gao Fei used his Heavenly Eye to check his Combat Power—it was exactly 1000 points. Ever since he entered the Qi Gathering Stage, Gao Fei felt full of strength throughout his body, a feeling that was utterly delightful.

After leaving the housing complex, Gao Fei found a reasonably clean restaurant, ordered a few dishes, and added a bottle of wine to dine alone.

After eating his fill, Gao Fei left the restaurant.

With thirty thousand in hand, it should be enough for Gambling Stone. As Gao Fei strolled down the street, he mulled over his options. He would start by purchasing some cheaper stones, and after cutting out the Jade, he would sell it right then and there. The money would snowball and gradually increase. When he had enough money, he would buy those more expensive stones, and the Jade cut from them would surely be worth even more!

With the power of Heavenly Eye Clairvoyance, Gambling Stone was a sure win situation.

The thought of soon becoming wealthy made Gao Fei's heart flutter with excitement. After so many years of hardship, he was finally seeing the payoff.

"Boom!"

A sudden explosion rang out in front, causing Gao Fei's eardrums to buzz.

What was that? Gao Fei looked up and saw five masked men with guns robbing a jewelry store. All the store clerks were crouching on the ground, shivering with fear. The five masked men had a clear division of labor. One guarded the door, another watched over the crouching clerks, ready to brutally beat anyone who dared move, his handiwork was incredibly ruthless. The remaining three grabbed bags and started looting the gold and silver jewelry inside the store.

The position where Gao Fei stood was about three hundred meters from the jewelry store, impossible for the average person to see what was going on inside. But Gao Fei was different; after all, he had clairvoyance.

Not to mention three hundred meters, even at three thousand meters, he could see everything clearly.

"Damn!" Gao Fei cursed: "They dare to rob a jewelry store in broad daylight! Their guts are quite big!"

"Wee-oo, wee-oo, wee-oo..."

More than a dozen police cars came rushing from afar, stopping right in front of the jewelry store. "Clang, clang, clang..." the car doors opened, and dozens of fully armed police officers got out. The officers quickly drew their guns, aiming at the robbers.

"Huh?" Gao Fei raised an eyebrow: "She actually came too?" He spotted an acquaintance among the police officers, Liu Mengyao. Today, Liu Mengyao was still dressed in a crisp police uniform, which perfectly outlined her explosive figure.

"Attention, criminals inside!" Liu Mengyao, not knowing where she got a megaphone, started shouting at the robbers inside the jewelry store: "You are already surrounded, there is no escaping! Release the hostages now and drop your weapons, surrender yourselves! Strive for leniency!"

"Get lost!" one of the robbers shouted: "Get away from here! Or I'll kill all these clerks!" These robbers dared to rob in broad daylight, indicating that they were fearless and audacious. Getting them to surrender was outright impossible.
