Nezha's Modern-Day Life of Spoiling His Wife

Greedy, lecherous, timid, sweet, and easily flustered Song Chuxi X the wealthy, roguishly handsome, aloof Third Prince Nezha

[Both leads are each other's first / Love at first sight / Secretly planned for a long time / Modern life / Nezha is straightforward]

Nezha had recently started feeling that something was off with his wife.

She kept zoning out.

She zoned out while eating, while watching TV, and sometimes even when he kissed her.

When he asked what was wrong, she shook her head and said it was nothing, then smiled at him. Her smile was gentle, but it left him feeling strangely empty.

He thought he had been too rough that night and scared her.

So for the past couple of days, he had been trying all sorts of ways to cheer her up: sending flowers, transferring money, buying her a necklace.

But she still zoned out, as if a world he couldn't enter had swallowed her whole.

Later, he couldn't help himself and secretly looked at her phone. That's when he learned she had gone to see a therapist.

It was him.

He was the one who had pulled her into a destiny that had never been meant for her.

She was mortal and should have lived an ordinary, peaceful life, married an ordinary man, and had an ordinary child. She shouldn't have to live in fear, wonder whether her husband was a god, or go see a therapist alone in the middle of the night.

He had been selfish.

He had craved her warmth.

So he had drawn her into this marriage, yet forgotten to tell her what he really was and what she was up against.

- Love always makes you feel you owe the other person.

- Shouldn't respecting your partner and behaving with integrity, without using your strength to bully the weak, be the bare minimum? Just like... just like flowers turning toward the sun and water flowing downhill. It's simply the way things should be.
