Chapter 45: How Did You Get So Round?

Shen Mingzhu finally remembered what she had neglected!

In the book she read, Zhou Hao was the protagonist, with the perspective and plot revolving around him and the Zhou family. Pei Ziheng, being used as an antagonist tool character, only appeared in specific plots. Therefore, the author didn't elaborate much on Pei Ziheng's background, and Pei Yang didn't even have a name mentioned, only briefly described with one line.

Gone too soon.

In written language, "gone too soon" generally refers to young and middle-aged adults between 20 and 40 years of age.

Pei Yang was 26 years old now, and deducing from the plot in the book, he must have died before the age of 28,

because when describing the formation of Pei Ziheng's antagonist personality in the book, it read: Pei Ziheng has suffered brutal abuse from his evil stepmother since he was 5.

Even if the original character was stupid and reckless, she wouldn't dare to abuse her stepson while her husband was still alive.
