Chapter 197: Correcting His Bad Habits.
They had been married for almost half a year, and their relationship had always been great, with no minor conflicts or friction; every day was sweet and blissful. Shen Zhiyi had recently talked with Wang Feifei and others about the tumultuous marital lives of a few actresses in the industry, involving deceit both financially and emotionally, even saying that marriage is just built on lies. At the time, she didn’t take it seriously, convinced that those things would never happen to her and Pei Yu.
But now, now she realized that she, as a wife, had been kept in the dark about such a significant matter by her husband.
"Pei Yu," Shen Zhiyi still didn’t move closer; she leaned against the wall, looking down at the carpet pattern, "I kept a cold from you before, and you were unhappy, but now you’ve kept something as major as a surgery from me. Isn’t that too hypocritical?"
That just wasn’t right.
She felt powerless, "No one does marriage like this."
There’s no surgery without risks. What if something went wrong and he never made it out of the operating room? While he was undergoing surgery, his breathing slowly weakening, she was safely sleeping and happily eating back home. How could that be right?
Previously, when they were in the same space without any communication, Pei Yu had figured out how to explain it to her; but at this very moment, hearing her words, he couldn’t say a single thing, overwhelmed by sheer panic.
"Zhizhi," he was extremely anxious, fearing that her next words would be about separating from him, he said hoarsely, "I was wrong. You can blame me however you want."
But please don’t leave him.
In some respects, he was a very selfish person, used to deciding everything by himself. When a review showed that the condition was serious and surgery was needed, he never once thought of telling Shen Zhiyi because he felt it wasn’t necessary—it was just a minor surgery, no need to worry her, especially since she was quite busy during that period.
Now, admitting his fault was only because Shen Zhiyi was upset. Often, when making decisions, he considered Shen Zhiyi’s emotions as a starting point.
