Shen Qingchen showed no fear. He had learned some fighting skills in college, and he also paid attention to physical exercise, so his physical fitness was very good. Facing the siege of several gangsters, he responded calmly, and in a few moves, he beat these gangsters to the ground, crying for their parents.
Jiang Zhi watched Shen Qingchen's heroic performance from the side, and a warm feeling surged in her heart. She originally thought that she could only rely on herself to deal with these troubles, but she didn't expect Shen Qingchen to stand up and protect her without hesitation. This feeling of being protected made the originally hard line of defense in her heart loosen a little.
After beating up the thugs, Shen Qingchen straightened his clothes and turned to look at Jiang Zhi. His eyes were full of tenderness and concern. He asked softly, "Are you okay?" Jiang Zhi looked at Shen Qingchen with moved eyes. She shook her head and said, "I'm fine, thank you."
Shen Qingchen smiled and said, "You're welcome. How could I let you be bullied by these people?" His smile was as warm as the sun, which made Jiang Zhi's heartbeat involuntarily speed up a bit.
Afterwards, Shen Qingchen took Jiang Zhi out of the cafe. They walked on the street, the sun shining on them, covering them with a layer of golden light. Shen Qingchen brought Jiang Zhi to a beautiful garden. This garden was discovered by Shen Qingchen by chance. He thought the scenery here was very beautiful and had always wanted to find an opportunity to bring Jiang Zhi to see it.
In the garden, all kinds of flowers bloomed. Red like fire, pink like clouds, white like snow, the colorful flowers intertwined together to form a gorgeous picture. In the breeze, the flowers swayed gently, emitting bursts of charming fragrance.
Jiang Zhi walked into the garden and was attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of her. Her eyes revealed a kind of surprise and joy, and the fatigue and depression brought by the investigation seemed to be relieved a lot at once. Shen Qingchen looked at Jiang Zhi's expression and felt very happy in his heart. He walked to Jiang Zhi's side, pointed to a blooming rose, and said: "Look, does this rose look like you? Beautiful and strong."
Jiang Zhi blushed slightly after hearing what Shen Qingchen said. She glanced at Shen Qingchen with a reproachful look and said, "You only know how to say sweet words." Although there was a hint of blame in her words, her tone was very gentle.
Shen Qingchen smiled, gently took Jiang Zhi's hand, and said, "I'm speaking from the heart. Ever since I first met you, I've been attracted by your unique temperament. You are different from all the women I've met. You have your own dreams and pursuits, and you can do anything for the beliefs in your heart. This kind of persistence and strength makes me admire you very much."
Jiang Zhi felt a warmth in her heart when she heard Shen Qingchen's words. She did not pull back her hand and let Shen Qingchen hold it. They walked hand in hand in the garden, admiring the blooming flowers and enjoying this sweet moment.
In a corner of the garden, there was a small pavilion. Inside the pavilion was a stone table and several stone benches. Shen Qingchen brought Jiang Zhi to the pavilion and sat down. He plucked a leaf from a nearby tree and played with it in his hands.
Jiang Zhi looked at Shen Qingchen, and suddenly a desire to talk surged in her heart. She said, "You know what? I have been looking for the truth about Tang Junxi's death. For me, this is not just revenge for one person, but also for the justice in my heart. Tang Junxi is very important to me. His death makes me feel very painful and guilty. If I could have found some clues earlier, maybe he would not have died."
After listening to Jiang Zhi's words, Shen Qingchen gently held her hand and said, "I can understand how you feel. I know you are a person who values friendship and loyalty, and you have paid a lot to find the truth. What I want to tell you is that you are not fighting alone. If you need any help, you can tell me. I will always be by your side to support you."
Jiang Zhi looked at Shen Qingchen's sincere eyes and felt very touched. She knew that Shen Qingchen really wanted to help her, but she didn't want to involve Shen Qingchen in her revenge plan. She shook her head and said, "Thank you, but this is my own business, and I don't want to implicate you."
Shen Qingchen smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I volunteered to help you, how can I say that I'm causing trouble? Besides, I believe that if we work together, we will be able to find the truth."
Jiang Zhi looked at Shen Qingchen's determined eyes, and her heart wavered. She began to re-examine the relationship between herself and Shen Qingchen. She knew that she had some special feelings for Shen Qingchen, but she had never dared to admit it or face it. She was afraid that this feeling would affect her revenge plan, and she was even more afraid that she would be hurt again.
Just when Jiang Zhi was lost in thought, Shen Qingchen gently stroked her hair and said, "No matter what decision you make, I will respect your choice. I just hope you can be happy and don't make yourself too tired."
Jiang Zhi raised her head and looked at Shen Qingchen. Tears flashed in her eyes. She didn't know how to respond to Shen Qingchen's deep affection. She just leaned gently on Shen Qingchen's shoulder, enjoying the tranquility and warmth of this moment.
In this beautiful garden, the relationship between Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen seemed to undergo a subtle change. No longer simply a relationship of pursuer and pursued, they became more like two soulmates, understanding and supporting each other. This feeling made them both feel very comfortable and at ease, as if they had found a safe haven to rely on.
As time passed, the sun gradually set. Golden sunlight shone across the garden, casting a dreamlike hue throughout it. Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen knew it was time to leave. However, this sweet moment would remain forever in their memories, marking a significant turning point in their relationship.
