Chapter 1009: She Was Going for an Interview
In the morning, the first rays of light carefully lit up the light blue skies and a new day gradually dawned.
Soon, a cool breeze swept into a room that had a dreamy decor and awakened the woman who slept soundly on the bed.
Han Xue stretched before she rolled out of bed. She looked at the European-style clock on the wall which showed that it was 7 AM in the morning.
She quickly washed her face, put on her makeup, and changed her clothes. In a matter of 30 minutes, she had transformed into a beautiful and elegant lady.
She wore a soft yellow dress that was made from high-quality organza silk that set off her fair skin.
It had been five days since her suicide attempt and her body had gradually recovered. Her complexion had also improved and she no longer looked as pale as she did before.
She carried a small, black leather clutch as she strode down the stairs and entered the dining hall where she saw her husband Ye Hao.
He was wearing the outfit that he usually wore to work – a white shirt and black pants, and he was currently having breakfast.
“Why are you up so early? Shouldn’t you be resting?” Ye Hao said with a raised brow as he looked at Han Xue in surprise. He did not remember Han Xue being an early riser.
“Ah Hao…” Han Xue said with a smile that showed off her set of pearly white teeth. “I would like to look for a job, so I’ll be going for an interview in the morning.”
Han Xue came up with a plausible excuse for her actions. She was obviously not heading out in search of a job since the Ye family was so rich that she could spend as much money as she wanted. It had been many years since she last had to earn her own keep.
“There’s no need for you to work,” Ye Hao said.
He had decided to tolerate Han Xue’s antics for the time being since he didn’t want this to happen again.
“I’m just bored at home and Xiao Yu is about to start school soon, so all I want to do is to find a job that I like to lead a more meaningful life. Don’t worry, I won’t take up any job that requires me to work too hard,” she said. The smile never left her face as she tried to act as though she was extremely happy. After all, Ye Hao would return home every day once he knocked off from work and would even attempt to say a few comforting words over the past few days.
She knew that he did not really mean those words but at least he was now willing to put on an act.
She wanted him to give up on He Xiyan and hoped that they’d be able to slowly repair their relationship and become a loving couple once more.
Ye Hao acknowledged her words noncommittally and after he asked how she was doing, he chose to remain silent and quickly scarfed down his beef noodles.
“I’ll be heading off to work,” he said as he walked out of the dining hall.
Han Xue’s lips slowly curved upward as she watched him leave.
He was still her man and she vowed not to ever let him leave her.
She had been eating diligently over the past few days in order to recuperate as fast as she could because she had lost too much blood earlier.
She had a cup of milk, two eggs, and a small bowl of noodles and this was twice what she usually had for breakfast. She didn’t have the appetite to eat so much food but she still forced herself to finish her breakfast.
She went to the garage after she was done with her meal and selected a car that she rarely drove. This was the least valuable car in the house, a white BMW that only cost $70,000 to $80,000.
She had selected this car in order to keep a low profile.
She drove out of the mansion after she told Xia Jingshu that she was heading out.
