Chapter 172: What Else Are You Hiding From Me?

The room was very warm, and after crying for a while, Shen Zhiyi felt hot, so she changed into the nightgown she had brought and was carried out of the bathroom by Pei Yu after she had washed up.

She was a bit tired from crying and lay on Pei Yu's shoulder, not wanting to move, yet she wasn't sleepy, softly gazing at his slightly blurred silhouette under the dim night light."

Pei Yu lay beside her, gently stroking her cheek with his palm. His palm bore scars and was uneven, which tickled Shen Zhiyi. She grabbed his hand and played with his fingers.

Her voice was still a bit hoarse from crying, "Is there anything else you're keeping from me?"

Pei Yu was a deep thinker, prone to complicating things; thus, many things he should have shared, he kept secret. Although Shen Zhiyi wasn't angry, she didn't want him holding onto those secrets alone.
