Standing atop a tall building in the city, Chen Qingchen gazed at the bustling streets below, his heart filled with admiration for Jiang Zhi. He had just learned from his men in detail about Jiang Zhi's determination. After enduring Jiang Yao's provocations and his passionate pursuit, she remained steadfast in her pursuit of revenge, unwavering. This kind of unwavering perseverance was extremely rare among the people he knew.
He knew that Jiang Zhi was like a pearl, isolated from the world, radiating a unique and captivating light. Her kindness was cloaked in a veneer of revenge, and only those who truly approached her could feel that warmth. And he wanted to be the one who truly entered her heart. Shen Qingchen secretly vowed in his heart that he would pursue Jiang Zhi again, this time, to prove his love with more concrete actions.
The next morning, sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains into Jiang Zhi's simple rental house. Jiang Zhi got up early as usual, ready to continue looking for clues to Tang Junxi's murder. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Shen Qingchen standing at the door with a breakfast in her hand.
"Good morning, Jiang Zhi. I brought you breakfast. You were busy all day yesterday and must not have eaten well." Shen Qingchen's voice was gentle and magnetic.
Jiang Zhi was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Shen Qingchen to appear here so early. Her first reaction was to refuse, but seeing the sincerity and fatigue in Shen Qingchen's eyes, she swallowed the words back.
"Thank you, you don't have to do this." Jiang Zhi took the breakfast and said softly.
"I know you want to refuse me, but Jiang Zhi, I really want to help you. I know that Tang Junxi's matter is very important to you, and I also want to do something for you." Shen Qingchen said sincerely.
Jiang Zhi's heart moved, and she looked at Shen Qingchen with mixed feelings. She knew that Shen Qingchen was a good person, and his pursuit also made her a little moved, but her heart was still full of worries.
"Chen Qingchen, you don't understand. My road to revenge is full of dangers, and I don't want to involve you." Jiang Zhi said with a frown.
“I’m not afraid of danger, Jiang Zhi. I want to face it with you. Moreover, I have the ability to protect you and help you find more clues.” Shen Qingchen said firmly.
Jiang Zhi was silent for a while. She didn't know how to respond to Shen Qingchen's enthusiasm. She turned and walked into the house, and Shen Qingchen followed her in.
"Look, this is some information I asked someone to investigate yesterday." Shen Qingchen took out a stack of documents from his bag and handed it to Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi took the file and read it carefully. She discovered that the information contained information about the people involved in the Tang Junxi case, some of which she had not previously grasped. She was surprised and moved.
"How did you get this information?" Jiang Zhi raised his head and asked Shen Qingchen.
"I used some of my connections. I know it's been hard for you to find clues alone, and I want to help you share some of the burden." Shen Qingchen said with a smile.
Jiang Zhi's heart was filled with ripples. She knew that it was not easy to obtain this information, and Shen Qingchen must have spent a lot of time and effort on her. However, she still could not easily accept Shen Qingchen's feelings.
"Chen Qingchen, I appreciate your kindness. However, I can't accept your feelings just because of your help. I still can't let go of Tang Junxi's affairs." Jiang Zhi put the documents on the table and said helplessly.
Shen Qingchen walked to Jiang Zhi and gently held her shoulders. "Jiang Zhi, I know you are very confused now. I don't ask you to accept me immediately. I just want to accompany you and support you on your road to revenge."
Jiang Zhi felt the warmth from Shen Qingchen's hand, and her heartbeat accelerated involuntarily. She wanted to break free from Shen Qingchen's hand, but she was reluctant.
"Why are you so nice to me? You know I may not be able to give you what you want in return." Jiang Zhi's voice trembled a little.
"Because I love you, Jiang Zhi. Your strength, your kindness, and your persistence all fascinate me deeply. I don't care about anything in return, I just hope you can let me stay by your side." Shen Qingchen said, looking affectionately into Jiang Zhi's eyes.
Jiang Zhi's eyes were a little moist. She had never thought that there would be someone who loved her so firmly, especially when she was carrying the mission of revenge. Her heart was struggling between pain and emotion.
"But my road to revenge may be long and difficult. You have your own life and your own career, and you shouldn't waste your time on me." Jiang Zhi tried to persuade Shen Qingchen.
"Jiang Zhi, you are my life. My career is important to me, but without you, everything becomes meaningless. I am willing to give up everything for you and stay with you to the end." Shen Qingchen's eyes were full of determination.
Jiang Zhi was shocked by Shen Qingchen's words. She didn't know how to respond. She turned and walked to the window, looking at the street outside, lost in thought. Shen Qingchen stood quietly behind her without saying a word. He knew Jiang Zhi needed time to think.
After a long time, Jiang Zhi turned around and looked at Shen Qingchen. "Shen Qingchen, I can accept your help, but I still can't agree to be with you. I need time to deal with my feelings, and I also need time to complete my revenge."
Shen Qingchen smiled. He knew that this was the biggest concession Jiang Zhi had made. "Okay, Jiang Zhi. I will respect your decision. As long as you don't refuse my help, I will be satisfied."
From that day on, Shen Qingchen truly integrated into Jiang Zhi's life. Every day, he and Jiang Zhi would analyze clues to the Tang Junxi case and use his own resources and connections to investigate those suspicious characters.
