Housekeeper Lu quickly dug out the small notebook that he always carried with him and read mechanically from the notebook, “Mrs. Ye woke up around 8 AM today and came down for breakfast at 8:30 AM. Then, she went to Xi Xi’s room and emerged after 30 minutes and drove out of the house alone. She also rejected the guards and maids’ offer to tag along.”
Ye Hao’s brows rose and he said, “Get to the main point.”
Housekeeper Lu nodded as though he had gotten the message and said, “Mrs. Ye did not head to the Mo mansion to visit Yuan Yuan today, neither did she buy anything from the shopping mall but this afternoon, she visited Mengyu (a famous local fashion design company) then she visited an investment firm.”
“What could she be doing at Mengyu?” Ye Hao asked in confusion as he frowned. He would ask after his wife’s daily activities every day after he knocked off from work. Their relationship had become extremely cold and she still refused to speak much, so they barely interacted. He mostly tracked her activities out of concern since he was afraid that she would resort to extreme measures once again.
Fortunately, his wife seemed to regain some resemblance of normalcy as time passed and at the very least, she would take her meals on time and would spend some time with their daughter Xi Xi.
They hardly spoke to each other these days but as long as she could recover from this, he would wait for her no matter how long it would take.
Housekeeper Lu shook his head and said, “I don’t know either, sir. These days, Mrs. Ye would either head to the mall to shop or go visit Yuan Yuan, or even bring her easel out to a park with some scenery to draw, so her visits to both companies seemed a little strange. I guess she might be itching to do something, or perhaps she might be looking for a job since she’s bored with staying home.”
Housekeeper Lu guessed.
Ye Hao frowned deeply and muttered, “a job…”
“Exactly!” Housekeeper Lu said. “Mrs. Ye doesn’t seem to like remaining cooped up within the castle all day. Sir, why don’t you hire her at your firm? Then, she’d be able to go to the office with you every day.”
As they spoke, the gates to the castle opened and a white BMW entered.
Soon, He Xiyan got off the car and she was dressed in a cream-colored suit today paired with a dark grey tweed overcoat and wore a small round hat on her head. She wasn’t dressed as casually as she usually did when she went out.
She had lost a lot of weight because of how emotionally unstable she had been and also due to a lack of appetite, so she was now only 46 KG. This had been her weight when she was living with the Mo family.
Her face was still very blank and without any emotion.
She carried her handbag and entered the castle. Soon, she saw her husband and nodded at him but didn’t say anything else.
Ye Hao walked over and his lips curved into a small smile while a happy twinkle gradually returned to his eyes. He finally felt more reassured when he saw that she had changed a little.
“Yan Yan, have you eaten?” Ye Hao asked.
He Xiyan stopped in her tracks and looked up coldly at this man who was almost 30 CM taller than her. She would have to raise her head to look at him each time they stood together.
“No…” She replied coldly, then walked into the dining room alone.
Ye Hao followed closely behind her and took the initiative to scoop some rice for her, then instructed the chef to serve the food that they had prepared today.
“Yan Yan… why don’t you follow me to the office tomorrow? I’ll get Human Resources to find you a role. Let me know what you’d like to do or which position you’d prefer.”
