Chapter 33 - Helian Zes Proposal of Marriage (1/2)

After returning home, Jian Rushi thought it over and over and decided to have a frank talk with Helian Ze.

“I need to work. I’ll starve to death if I don’t work.”

Helian Ze didn’t take her words seriously at all. He said lightly, “I will support you.”

With a solemn expression, Jian Rushi refused, “I don’t want to be your mistress.”

“So, let’s get married.”

On hearing this, Jian Rushi was stunned. When she came back to her senses, she immediately said, “Bigamy is against the law.”

Helian Ze felt puzzled. He stared blankly at her and said, “I’m not married yet. So I won’t be a bigamist. Three years ago, I wanted to marry you, but you ran away.”

Shocked, Jian Rushi opened her eyes wide in disbelief.

It seemed as if their conversation was a game, and they were game players trying to shock each other.

Helian Ze poured out his grievances, “At that time, you lacked confidence in our relationship. So I wanted to give you the feeling of safety by marrying you. During that time, I was busy preparing for the wedding. When everything was ready, unexpectedly my bride ran away.”

Jian Rushi couldn’t believe her ears. Shocked, she pointed at her own nose and asked, “You wanted to marry me? But I knew nothing about that!”

Helian Ze kept silent. At that time, his thinking was simple: he would get everything ready for her, and the only thing she had to do was to wear a beautiful wedding dress and become his bride on the wedding day.

She still couldn’t believe it. “But… I was your mistress for three years…”

Helian Ze’s face darkened. “Mistress? To be serious, I had a romance with you for three years in my view. You are my girlfriend.”

With a look of grievance, Jian Rushi said, “Jiang Xue had come to me at that time.”

Mr. Helian frowned and said lightly, “Jiang Xue has been in prison. She’s just a person with bad conduct. How could you believe her words?”

Jian Rushi shook her head. ” You are right. We shouldn’t play with people who have bad conduct.”
