Chapter 833: He Was Not Interested in Her
Ye Hao sat on the soft sofa and frowned as he unzipped his laptop bag and took out his laptop. Then, he read through the sales proposals that his directors had sent over.
He was only able to forget about his troubles at home when he threw himself wholeheartedly into his work. He had been completely focused on working over the past few years and there were even several months during year-end last year that he worked till late at night.
He didn’t feel tired and the things he had to deal with at home were more exhausting than working late into the night.
Ye Hao looked through the proposals in detail and noticed that these were all proposals that were neither creative nor attractive. He would have deleted these proposals immediately after one glance in the past and requested these directors to redraft their proposals but today, he carefully annotated and gave suggestions for improvement for every single proposal.
The door suddenly opened and the fragrant scent of coffee wafted in.
Han Xue stood at the doorway and smiled awkwardly at him.
“Are you busy?” she asked as she looked at him with a plea in her eyes.
She wanted him to care about her, and love her, and wanted even more from him.
Ye Hao ignored her and continued to busy himself with his work as his fingers never stopped moving over his keyboard.
“My mom spoke a little out of turn today. I hope you won’t take it to heart,” Han Xue said softly.
There was a girlish tenderness in her soft voice.
Ye Hao’s hands finally stopped moving and he turned to look at Han Xue, and his eyes were completely devoid of all emotion as he stared at her, as though she was a familiar stranger to him.
“Her words don’t bother me,” he said coldly.
He didn’t take Han Qing seriously at all so there was no need to get mad because of her actions.
“Please leave if you have nothing further to add. I still got work to do,” he said coldly and his voice was aloof with a trace of displeasure.
Han Xue didn’t get up to leave but rather, she looked hopefully at Ye Hao and paused for a moment before she said, “Could you not sleep here tonight?”
She wanted him to sleep with her in their nuptial room. She had always been sleeping in that room alone and he had not even stepped foot into it before.
Ye Hao was speechless.
He frowned and his brows suddenly knitted together as some kind of emotion flashed past his eyes. However, he quickly looked annoyed when he figured out what she wanted.
“I’m sleeping here. You should head back to your own room to sleep,” he said.
He was not interested in her advances at all.
“Why?” Han Xue couldn’t help but ask. “We’ve been married for so long, Ah Hao, why are you so reluctant to sleep with me when we are man and wife?”
She asked in agitation as she finally spoke her mind. She knew that he didn’t love her but he didn’t need to love her for them to have relations.
Why did he have to treat her in this manner?
Ye Hao froze for a moment and seemed surprised at her sudden outburst. However, he reverted back to his cold and aloof expression after his initial surprise faded.
“I’m not interested,” he said coldly.
“You’re not interested?” she repeated in shock and her face paled. She looked at him in embarrassment and felt as though she had been utterly humiliated.
How could he say that he wasn’t interested in her?
They had made love so many times while they were dating and he had been enraptured but her body back in those days. So how could he say that he wasn’t interested now?
