Upon seeing this side of He Linsheng, Chen Yuhui's heart was swayed. She had always been too embarrassed to tell anyone that since marrying He Linsheng, he had only consummated their marriage on their first night together. Afterward, she watched him dally between beautiful concubines and servant girls. Enraged to her limits, she found every excuse to punish those women and this led to constant quarrels and even physical fights with He Linsheng.
Despite her frustration, she silently allowed him to sit down and serve some side dishes to accompany their drink. As he poured her wine, he gently pleaded with her, held her hand and begged for her forgiveness, stating he would treat her well for the rest of their lives. This unexpectedly moved her. She was surprised to see him express such tenderness, not falling short of Chu Lingxuan's gentle demeanor.
