They visited the dark corners of the city, filled with all kinds of people from all walks of life. Shen Qingchen always followed Jiang Zhi closely, protecting her. Once, they went to question a gangster who had once crossed paths with Tang Junxi. The gangster saw the two well-dressed people coming to this shabby place and thought they were here to provoke them, so he called a group of accomplices and surrounded them.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" the gang leader asked arrogantly.
"We just want to ask you something about Tang Junxi." Jiang Zhi said calmly.
"Tang Junxi? I don't know any Tang Junxi! Get out of here right now, or I'll show you what's happening today!" said the gang leader, waving the stick in his hand.
Shen Qingchen stepped forward and blocked Jiang Zhi behind him. "You'd better think clearly before you speak. We are not here to cause trouble, but we are not afraid of it. If you know anything about Tang Junxi, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise you can't afford the consequences."
The gang leader hesitated when he saw Shen Qingchen's momentum. But he still didn't want to show weakness in front of his little brother.
"Hmph! Do you think I'm afraid of you? Brothers, go ahead!" The gang leader gave an order, and his accomplices rushed towards Shen Qingchen and Jiang Zhi.
Although Shen Qingchen was usually an elegant CEO, he had also learned some self-defense skills. He calmly dealt with the attacks of the thugs while protecting Jiang Zhi. Jiang Zhi was not idle either. She used her skills to cleverly dodge the attacks and counterattack at the right time.
After a fierce fight, the gangsters found themselves no match for the two men. Seeing this, the gang leader wanted to escape. Shen Qingchen rushed forward and grabbed his collar.
"Can you tell me now? About Tang Junxi." Shen Qingchen said coldly.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you. Tang Junxi did come here before, and he seemed to be looking for someone, but I really don't know who he was looking for. He only stayed here for a while and then left." The gang leader said fearfully.
Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen looked at each other. Although this information was not of much help, it at least proved that the direction of their investigation was correct.
In addition to investigating cases together, Shen Qingchen also cares about Jiang Zhi in life. He will prepare a sumptuous dinner for Jiang Zhi after a busy day. He will stay by her bedside and take care of her carefully when Jiang Zhi is sick.
However, Jiang Zhi's heart was still full of contradictions. On the one hand, she enjoyed Shen Qingchen's company and help, but on the other hand, she was afraid that she would forget her original intention of revenge because of this relationship. She often thought alone in the middle of the night. She didn't know how to face Shen Qingchen's feelings, nor did she know where her future would go.
As time went by, Shen Qingchen's feelings for Jiang Zhi grew deeper and deeper. He found that he could no longer leave Jiang Zhi, and her every move touched his heart. Jiang Zhi also gradually got used to Shen Qingchen's presence and began to rely on Shen Qingchen's help, but she still didn't dare to open her heart easily.
During an investigation, they discovered a new clue that pointed to a mysterious organization that seemed to have played a major role in Tang Junxi's murder. However, the organization was so secretive that they had difficulty obtaining more information.
"This organization seems to be very complicated. We must be careful." Jiang Zhi said with a frown as he looked at the information in his hand.
“Well, I will arrange some people to investigate the background of this organization. However, you should not approach them easily, it is too dangerous.” Shen Qingchen said worriedly.
"I know, but this clue is too important to me. I must find the truth." Jiang Zhi's eyes were full of determination.
Shen Qingchen looked at Jiang Zhi's eyes, and he knew that he could not stop Jiang Zhi. He could only work harder to protect her and ensure her safety.
In the following days, Shen Qingchen and Jiang Zhi continued to investigate the mysterious organization while dealing with their own emotional problems. Their relationship was like a boat in a storm, wobbling but never capsized.
Jiang Zhi knew that Shen Qingchen's pursuit had planted a seed in her heart, and this seed was slowly sprouting. However, she didn't know whether this seed would eventually grow into a flower of love or die in the storm of revenge.
Shen Qingchen also understood that Jiang Zhi's heart was a solid castle, and he needed more patience and love to break through it. He believed that one day, Jiang Zhi would truly accept him, and they would move towards a happy future together.
As the days go by, they continue to move forward on the road to finding the truth, and their feelings continue to undergo subtle changes in the process. Every danger, every discovery, every time of companionship becomes a touchstone of their relationship, testing whether they can truly be together.
One day, Jiang Zhi encountered a huge setback in her investigation. She thought she was about to find crucial evidence, but she discovered that it was all a trap set by the enemy. She was very frustrated and felt that she was getting further and further away from the truth.
Seeing Jiang Zhi's frustration, Shen Qingchen hugged Jiang Zhi in his arms distressedly. "Jiang Zhi, don't be discouraged. This is just a small setback. We will definitely be able to find the truth. I will always be with you, no matter what difficulties we encounter."
Jiang Zhi leaned in Shen Qingchen's arms, listening to his comfort, and the frustration in her heart gradually dissipated. She suddenly realized that in this difficult revenge process, Shen Qingchen had become an indispensable part of her. She began to re-examine her feelings for Shen Qingchen, and she found that her dependence on him was no longer just because of his help, but more because of him as a person.
