Chapter 106: The Wavering Heart



Amid the hustle and bustle of the bustling city, Jiang Zhi's life is entangled with her obsession with revenge and Shen Qingchen's passionate pursuit. As time goes by, her heart begins to waver between determination and hesitation.

Jiang Zhi sat on a bench in the small park she often visited, her thoughts a mess. She recalled every detail of her acquaintance with Shen Qingchen. The man in a neat suit and extraordinary temperament in the cafe seemed to have set off a wave in her life from the first glance.

After leaving the cafe, Jiang Zhi was caught off guard by Shen Qingchen's passionate pursuit. Though she appeared unmoved by the daily flowers and affectionate cards, even giving flowers to an elderly man on the street, she was deeply moved. Those vibrant flowers and heartfelt words were like pebbles dropped into the tranquil lake of her heart, creating ripples.

Shen Qingchen didn't give up because of Jiang Zhi's indifference; instead, he pursued her even more resolutely. His act of creating a romantic encounter unknowingly touched Jiang Zhi with his persistence. The umbrella on a rainy day shielded her from the wind and rain, and also brought a touch of warmth to her heart; the cup of hot coffee when she was tired not only warmed her body, but also her heart. Jiang Zhi knew that all this was arranged by Shen Qingchen, but she couldn't deny that some subtle changes began to take place deep within her heart.

However, Jiang Zhi's heart was filled with pain and a determination for revenge, weighing her down like a mountain, preventing her from easily accepting this love. Tang Junxi's death was a lasting pain in her heart. She could not forget the man who had been by her side, his gentleness and kindness. For Tang Junxi, she had to uncover the truth and avenge him. She feared that if she fell in love, she would lose her drive and resolve for revenge.

Jiang Zhi closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down. She knew that she couldn't be swayed by her emotions and couldn't forget her mission. However, whenever she thought of Shen Qingchen's eyes, his gentleness and persistence, her heart would waver involuntarily.

Just then, Jiang Zhi's phone rang. She glanced at the screen and saw an unfamiliar number. She hesitated for a moment, then picked up the phone.

"Hello, hello." Jiang Zhi's voice was a little cold.

"Jiang Zhi, it's me, Shen Qingchen." Shen Qingchen's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone.

Jiang Zhi's heart skipped a beat and she didn't know what to say.

"Jiang Zhi, I know you have been looking for clues to Tang Junxi's murder, and I have been trying to find a way to help you. I hope you can give me a chance to face it with you." Shen Qingchen's tone was full of sincerity.

Jiang Zhi was silent for a moment, then said, "Chen Qingchen, why did you do this? You know that revenge is all I have in my heart, and I can't accept your feelings."

"Jiang Zhi, I don't care about your past and revenge. I only care about you as a person. I am willing to face all difficulties with you and find clues to Tang Junxi's murder together." Shen Qingchen said firmly.

Jiang Zhi was moved when she heard Shen Qingchen's words. She knew that Shen Qingchen was sincere, but she still didn't dare to accept this feeling easily.

"Chen Qingchen, thank you for your kindness, but I can't accept it. I don't want my feelings to become an obstacle to revenge, nor do I want you to be involved in my troubles." Jiang Zhi said and hung up the phone.

Jiang Zhi's mood became even more complicated. She didn't know if her decision was right, but she knew she had to stick to her beliefs. She couldn't let her emotions affect her plan of revenge.

Just when Jiang Zhi was in a dilemma, a figure appeared in front of her. She looked up and saw Jiang Yao. Jiang Yao was a rich girl with a sweet face and a lively personality. She fell in love with Shen Qingchen at first sight and began to pursue him. However, Shen Qingchen turned a blind eye to Jiang Yao's pursuit. In his heart, there was only Jiang Zhi.

When Jiang Yao saw Jiang Zhi, her heart was filled with jealousy. She walked up to Jiang Zhi and said with a sneer, "Jiang Zhi, who do you think you are? You are just a woman with a vengeful heart. You are not worthy of Shen Qingchen."

Jiang Zhi looked at Jiang Yao with a cold expression. She said, "Jiang Yao, there's no need to sow discord here. What's going on between Shen Qingchen and me has nothing to do with you."

"It has nothing to do with me? Jiang Zhi, you are too naive. Shen Qingchen is mine, and I won't let you take him away." Jiang Yao's eyes were full of jealousy and anger.

Jiang Zhi didn't want to get entangled with Jiang Yao, so she stood up and prepared to leave, but Jiang Yao blocked her way.

"Jiang Zhi, don't think you are so great. You are just a poor creature teased by fate. Your desire for revenge will make you lose everything, including Shen Qingchen." Jiang Yao said.

Jiang Zhi looked at Jiang Yao, anger rising in her heart. She said, "Jiang Yao, don't think you can threaten me. I won't give up revenge or Shen Qingchen just because of your words."

"You won't give up Shen Qingchen? Jiang Zhi, you are too confident. Shen Qingchen is just in a whim, he won't really fall in love with you. Besides, Shen Qingchen's family will not accept a woman with a vengeful heart." Jiang Yao said.

Jiang Zhi was a little shaken after hearing Jiang Yao's words. She knew that Jiang Yao had a point, and Shen Qingchen's family would not accept a woman with a vengeful heart. However, she was unwilling to believe that Shen Qingchen was just acting on impulse.

Jiang Yao saw Jiang Zhi's expression and felt secretly pleased with herself. She continued, "Jiang Zhi, you'd better give up. There's no way a relationship between you and Shen Qingchen will work. You'll only bring him trouble and danger."
