At that seemingly ordinary yet turbulent moment, Jiang Yao's jealousy and madness were like a flood about to burst its banks, ready to explode at any moment.
Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen had already noticed Jiang Yao's stalking and harassment during this period. Although they had always been vigilant, they never thought that Jiang Yao would be so cruel.
That day, the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the streets and alleys of the city, and Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen were walking on their way home as usual.
They held hands, occasionally smiled at each other, their eyes full of affection for each other.
However, what they didn't realize was that Jiang Yao was like a ghost hiding in the darkness, quietly following them.
Suddenly, Jiang Zhi seemed to sense something strange. She paused slightly and subconsciously tightened her grip on Shen Qingchen's hand.
Shen Qingchen also keenly noticed the change in Jiang Zhi. He turned his head and asked softly, "What's wrong, dear?"
Jiang Zhi frowned, his eyes scanning the surroundings vigilantly, and whispered, "I always feel something is wrong, as if someone is following us."
After Shen Qingchen heard this, his heart tightened, his eyes became cold, and he began to carefully observe the movements around him.
Just then, Jiang Yao flashed out from a corner.
Her hair was a little messy, her eyes were bloodshot, and there was an almost crazy jealousy and resentment in her eyes.
In her hand she tightly grasped a cold, gleaming knife, which flashed a chilling light in the setting sun.
Jiang Yao glared at Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen fiercely, gritting her teeth and saying, "You damned couple, how could you be so happy? Why can't you let me have him?"
Her voice became a little sharp with excitement, sounding as harsh as nails scratching on a blackboard.
Jiang Zhi looked at the knife in Jiang Yao's hand, and anger and fear surged in his heart.
She protected Shen Qingchen behind her and said loudly to Jiang Yao: "Jiang Yao, you are crazy! It's useless for you to do this. Love cannot be obtained by force."
Shen Qingchen also walked out from behind Jiang Zhi. He looked at Jiang Yao calmly, trying to persuade her to put down the knife: "Jiang Yao, you will only fall into a deeper abyss by doing this. There has never been any possibility between us. You should wake up."
However, Jiang Yao was no longer willing to listen to any advice at this point. There was only jealousy and hatred in her eyes.
She roared, "Shen Qingchen, why can't you see me? How am I inferior to her? Today, I will make you pay the price!"
After saying that, she waved the knife in her hand and rushed towards Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen.
In this moment of life and death, Shen Qingchen's reaction was as fast as lightning.
Without any hesitation, he stood in front of Jiang Zhi.
His eyes were firm and resolute, as if at that moment, the only thought in his world was to protect Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Yao's knife stabbed into Shen Qingchen's body fiercely, and blood gushed out instantly, staining his white shirt red.
Shen Qingchen's body shook slightly, but he still stood firmly. He didn't want to fall at this time. He wanted to protect Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi watched Shen Qingchen block the fatal knife for her. Her mind was blank and time seemed to stand still at that moment.
Then, anger and sadness surged into my heart like a surging tide.
Her eyes turned red instantly and tears welled up in her eyes.
“Chen Qingchen!”
Jiang Zhi shouted his name loudly, his voice full of despair and pain.
She reached out and hugged Shen Qingchen's shaky body tightly, trying to stop him from falling.
Shen Qingchen's face turned pale as paper, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.
He endured the severe pain, turned his head to look at Jiang Zhi, forced a smile and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine."
However, his voice had become weak, and every word he spoke seemed to have exhausted all his strength.
Jiang Zhi looked at Shen Qingchen's injured appearance, and his heart was filled with endless self-blame.
She regretted not discovering Jiang Yao's conspiracy earlier and regretted that she was unable to protect Shen Qingchen.
Her hands trembled as she tried to cover Shen Qingchen's bleeding wound, but she found that the bleeding could not be stopped at all.
At this critical moment, Jiang Zhi's brain quickly regained consciousness.
She knew that the most important thing now was to save Shen Qingchen’s life.
While pressing the wound tightly with her hand, she took out her cell phone from her pocket and quickly called the emergency number.
"120? Someone's injured here, stabbed. In..."
Jiang Zhi tried to remain calm and explained their location in detail to the emergency personnel.
At this moment, Jiang Yao saw her knife piercing into Shen Qingchen's body and saw blood flowing in front of her eyes. Her heart was suddenly filled with fear and regret.
The knife in her hand fell to the ground with a clang, and her body began to tremble constantly.
She couldn't believe that she had done such a thing. Her jealousy and crazy impulse made her commit such an unforgivable crime.
After Jiang Zhi hung up the phone, he looked at Jiang Yao with anger in his eyes.
She gently placed Shen Qingchen on the ground, then slowly stood up and walked towards Jiang Yao.
Every step she took was full of power, as if carrying a flame of revenge.
When Jiang Yao saw Jiang Zhi walking towards her, she instinctively stepped back.
Her eyes were filled with fear, and she stammered, "I...I didn't mean to, I just..."
She tried to justify her actions, but she knew that no matter what she said, it would not make up for the mistake she had made.
