The door was gently pushed open from the outside Ye Hao entered inside talking in phone and Ning Xi turned her face towards him and blinked few times
His voice was as smooth as ever, yet blank to the extreme. She could even imagine his facial expression as he spoke; his face and his expression must have been even duller.
Everyone in the city knows the indecent relationship between her husband and his childhood sweetheart , Xia Yu , was not news to her.
If only her elders had not arranged this marriage when they were still alive If only canceling the marriage between her and the Ye familys eldest son was simple She wouldnt have needed to be in the position she currently was in!
However, it seemed that even though Ning Xi was able to become part of the Ye family and also take the position as Ye Hao wife, her position was not as secure as one may think.
He cut the call and door was closed gently and the huge room fell into silence. The atmosphere within the room became a little depressing.
Having always lived in an environment where the world revolved around him, Ye Hao already gloomy feelings became gloomier. The color White on bed room was supposed to be bright and warm, but right now, it somehow brought him a deeper sense of depression.
True enough, a persons state of mind brought about differences in ones perception.
Lets get this over and done with! Ye Hao sighed secretly to dissipate all of the unpleasant emotions within him. Since I agreed to marry Miss Ning Xi into my family, as long as she is not someone who is untrustworthy, she will remain as my official wife! My Xia Yu understand my actions. She will definitely understand. Ill not disappoint you, my Yuer.
Ye Hao subconsciously rubbed his hands together as he steadily approached the bride. He lifted her chin and saw her eyes.
A pair of crystal clear eyes stared deeply into his eyes.
Such crystal clear eyes! Such magnificence! The gentle blinking of her eyelashes were simply breathtaking.
Ye Hao was taken aback, but in a brief moment, his eyes returned to their usual calm state.
Ning Xi observed him as silently and could not help but wonder if it was magic. It was just like in her past life;
He saw her staring blankly and got confused so he asked do you want to say something to me.
Deep inside, he started to feel impatient. He couldnt help but knit his eyebrows. What was she doing?
Ning Xi glanced at Ye Hao, and then took few steps back from him and held her head down.You! Shocked, Ye Hao questioned her coldly. What is the meaning of this?
Ning Xi took few breaths before lifting up her head to gaze directly at Ye Hao. She directly addressed the point, Mr Ye, you have someone you like. The person whom you want to marry is not me but someone else. Am I right?
Ye Hao did not expect her to say that. It was all too sudden! The first thing that came to his mind was that he had heard her wrong. His business personality helped kept him calm. Having recovered from the shock, he asked softly, What, exactly, would you like to tell me?
Ning Xi lowered her head slightly, exposing her slender white neck, before she looked at him again and said, Mr Ye, you have complied with the marriage and saved My family's reputation. Ning Xi is very grateful. However, Mr Ye has already given his heart to someone else, thus Ning Xi does not want to steal you away from her. Why dont we become a fake couple? What do you think?
Ye Hao could not help but be visibly moved and he heaved a sigh of relief as the burden on his shoulders was finally lifted. His eyes flashed with brilliance, unlike the lifeless eyes he had previously. Become a fake couple? She had the nerve to even think of such a thing, let alone say it out loud!
Seeing Ye Hao remain silent, she continued, After one and half a year or so, I will complete my studies and try to get a good job after that we can divorce and you can then marry the woman in your heart, since the two of us are incompatible. How about it? Ye Hao continued to remain silent, which made her feel a little uneasy.
Him not loving her was a matter, but her initiating the divorce was another. A man as handsome as himself with such a wealthy background was the perfect husband that many women yearned for Yet, this lady in front of him told him upfront that she wanted to divorce. Ye Hao felt a little offended.
He could not help but scrutinize the woman in front of him. Gentle facial features with five healthy senses (TLN: the ears, eyes, lips, nose and tongue), fair skin, large and bright eyes. The eyes crystal clear, which made them particularly noticeable. The woman in front of him looked calm and indifferent, not servile nor overbearing. Those two points alone impressed him.
However, they also offended him a little.
