After Rebirth, Mrs. He Dotes On Her Husband

361 I Don’t Accept the Unspoken Rules

He Zui thought, ‘How could a girl be so skinny? Half of his arm was enough to wrap around her entire body.’ With this in mind, he felt some sympathy for her.

Hua Runxin was pulled into a warm embrace. She leaned against He Zui’s broad chest and cried uncontrollably.

This feeling had been suppressed in her heart for too long. After her father passed away, Hua Runxin kept telling herself to be brave and strong. She had to live on with her father’s love. That was why she religiously practiced dance day and night. Her mother was already old, but she still had to support the family.

Hua Runxin gritted her teeth and persevered day by day. When she video-called her mother, she was always smiling. She never had a safe haven for her to cry.

Although He Zui might be her employer and a stranger, he was still an outsider. Even so, Hua Runxin felt like she had found a sanctuary

Hua Runxin did not know how long she wept, but she felt that she had cried out all the tears in her life before she stopped.

As for He Zui, he remained in the same position—not moving at all.

Hua Runxin moved slightly, and He Zui immediately retracted his arm to keep a distance from her.

Giving a girl a hug while she was crying was what every man would do. Leaving her alone once she stopped and calmed down was the most basic respect a man should observe.

“Thank you, President He Zui. I’m sorry, President He Zui. I have delayed your time.” Hua Runxin’s eyes were swollen from crying. She looked listless. She had lost her usual liveliness.

He Zui, however, felt that she was inspirational. “I should be the one thanking you for bandaging me up so nicely,” he responded with a smile. As he spoke, he raised the bandage on his hand to prove his point.

Hua Runxin finally revealed a smile, but the smile quickly disappeared. She said nervously, “President He Zui, you should be more careful in the future. Don’t hurt yourself again.”

He Zui nodded. It was an indication that he understood. He lowered his head and looked at the mess on the ground. He thought about the dispute he had with He Qiu Shan…

What was He Qiu Shan to him? Why should he waste his emotions? He Qiu Shan was not worthy.

“President He Zui, I’ll help you clean up this place,” Hua Runxin offered. She was about to find a broom.

“No need. Someone will come and clean it up.” He Zui quickly stopped her.

“Then…then what can I do for you, President He Zui?” Hua Runxin was a little flustered and apologetic. “I…I seem to have cried for a long time. I don’t know how much I have inconvenienced you…”

Hua Runxin had heard that these big shots earned millions or even tens of millions in a minute. She had been crying for more than an hour. How much money was that?! She wouldn’t be able to pay it back!

He Zui raised his eyebrows. This girl was quite polite. Since that was the case…

“Then, after work, accompany me for dinner.” He curled the corners of his lips.

For so many years, he had been eating alone. He Zui suddenly didn’t feel like eating alone today.

“What?” Hua Runxin’s eyes widened. She had never expected He Zui to make such an invitation! After all, He Zui’s recent actions were deeply heartwarming. He didn’t take the opportunity to touch her. He was extremely gentlemanly. Just like a father! But then, this father-like figure had actually invited her to a meal after work!

In the entertainment industry, it was self-evident what this meant between adult men and women! Hua Runxin blinked and pursed her lips. Her eyes were red again. She forced herself not to let her tears fall.

“President He Zui, I’m not the kind of woman who would eat with you! I don’t accept the unspoken rules!”

“Ah?” When He Zui heard Hua Runxin’s words, his first reaction was confusion, then his eyes widened, and finally, he laughed. He explained to Hua Runxin, “I didn’t mean it that way. I just wanted to eat.”

“What?” Hua Runxin paused. Just a simple meal? Wasn’t this abnormal? A big shot simply wanted to eat a meal with her?

In Hua Runxin’s previous company, her manager would often arrange questionable banquets for her, where all the wealthy CEOs would get excited after three rounds of drinking. They would directly rip off the women’s dresses in the private room in front of everyone…

Hua Runxin had only been there once. She thought it was a normal dinner, but when she saw the scene, she vomited. When a middle-aged man reached out to her, she picked up a wine bottle and smashed it. It wasn’t hard to imagine that after that, she couldn’t get any jobs anymore. Her manager had threatened and bribed her many times, and even her later good friends had embarked on this path. With new resources, their careers were booming.

She was the only one who was still in this state even though she was almost 30 years old.

When He Zui invited her, Hua Runxin instinctively thought he was taking advantage of her. However, upon hearing the explanation, she found it incredulous.
