Options:
- He requested me to help him.

Right Answer: He requested me to help him.
The word "please" indicates that the sentence is a request. In indirect speech, requests are commonly reported with the verb "requested" followed by the object and an infinitive. The pronoun "me" changes to "him" according to the context. Therefore, the correct answer is "He requested me to help him." The remaining options use incorrect grammar or inappropriate reporting verbs.
