On this sunny afternoon, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen strolled along a park path. Flowers lining the path were in full bloom, their colorful petals swaying gently in the breeze, as if telling a story of happiness. They held hands, occasionally smiling at each other, their eyes filled with deep affection for each other. Jiang Zhi's face was filled with happiness. Over the past few days, in Shen Qingchen's company, her obsession with revenge had gradually melted away, given over to the warmth of love.
However, in another corner of the park, Jiang Yao appeared. Jiang Yao, a daughter of a wealthy family, had always had a smooth life, accustomed to the feeling of being the center of attention. That day, she had come to the park to relax when she stumbled upon Shen Qingchen. With a single glance, Shen Qingchen's stern yet handsome features, his deep, captivating eyes, left a lasting impression on her. Her gaze followed Shen Qingchen closely, and an irrepressible surge of emotion welled up within her.
But when she saw Jiang Zhi beside Shen Qingchen, jealousy instantly ignited within her. Jiang Yao watched their intimacy, her heart filled with resentment. She couldn't understand why this woman was allowed to stand by Shen Qingchen's side, enjoying his tenderness and love. Jiang Yao believed that in terms of appearance and family background, she was no less capable than Jiang Zhi, and in some ways, even superior. She felt that she should be the one standing shoulder to shoulder with Shen Qingchen.
From that day on, Jiang Yao began to secretly observe the lives of Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen. She often hid in the shadows, watching them go in and out of various places together. Every time she saw their happy smiles, Jiang Yao's jealousy grew like wild weeds. Her jealousy was like a demon, constantly devouring her sanity deep within her heart.
Jiang Yao began to inquire about Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen from all sources. She learned that Shen Qingchen was the president of a listed company, the heir to the Shen family, and held a pivotal position in the business world. Jiang Zhi, despite her ordinary appearance, was deeply loved by Shen Qingchen, which made it even more difficult for Jiang Yao to bear. She felt that Jiang Zhi must have used some trick to confuse Shen Qingchen.
To get closer to them, Jiang Yao began attending various business events and social gatherings, hoping for a chance to meet Shen Qingchen. At a large business reception, Jiang Yao dressed meticulously. She wore a gorgeous red evening gown, her hair piled high, revealing her fair neck. She adorned herself with priceless jewelry, appearing both noble and alluring. She searched the reception for Shen Qingchen.
Finally, she saw Shen Qingchen. Shen Qingchen was talking with other business partners along with Jiang Zhi. Jiang Zhi was wearing a simple yet elegant white dress. Jiang Yao looked at them, her jealousy ignited once again. She slowly walked towards them, holding a glass of champagne.
"Hello, Mr. Shen, I've heard a lot about you." Jiang Yao had a charming smile on her face, but her eyes were fixed on Shen Qingchen.
Shen Qingchen responded politely, his eyes always on Jiang Zhi, not paying much attention to Jiang Yao. However, Jiang Zhi keenly noticed the strangeness in Jiang Yao's eyes, and she felt a faint sense of unease in her heart.
Unwilling to be ignored, Jiang Yao began to find topics to chat with Shen Qingchen, trying to get his attention. But Shen Qingchen simply responded, his mind completely focused on Jiang Zhi. Jiang Zhi felt a little uncomfortable seeing Jiang Yao's enthusiasm for Shen Qingchen, but she didn't show it. She believed in Shen Qingchen's feelings for her and didn't want to seem petty in such an occasion.
However, Jiang Yao didn't give up. She secretly vowed in her heart that she would snatch Shen Qingchen away from Jiang Zhi. After returning home, Jiang Yao sat in her room and began to plan how to destroy Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen's happiness. Her mind kept replaying their intimate appearance at the cocktail party, which made her even more crazy.
She thought of using her family's influence in the business world to start with Shen Qingchen's company. Jiang Yao's family had extensive connections in several industries, so she decided to create some trouble for Shen Qingchen's company to distract him. This way, Shen Qingchen might become dissatisfied with Jiang Zhi, and a crack would appear in their relationship.
Jiang Yao began contacting companies that competed with Shen Qingchen's company, revealing some of the company's internal information to them. Although this information wasn't enough to deal a fatal blow to Shen Qingchen's company, it was enough to get them into some minor trouble. She also used her connections to create obstacles for Shen Qingchen's company in some business projects, forcing Shen Qingchen to spend more time and energy to resolve these problems.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yao didn't let Jiang Zhi go. She sent people to investigate Jiang Zhi's past, trying to find something to use against her. She wanted to drive Jiang Zhi away from Shen Qingchen in every possible way. Her jealousy had completely driven her mad, and she had only one goal in mind: to destroy their happiness.
Under Jiang Yao's covert manipulation, Shen Qingchen's company began to experience minor problems. Some projects that had been progressing smoothly suddenly encountered obstacles, and partners began to question some of the company's decisions. Shen Qingchen noticed something was amiss at the company, but he couldn't pinpoint the cause. He worked tirelessly at the company every day, trying to find a solution.
Jiang Zhi also felt the change in the atmosphere around them. She noticed that Shen Qingchen was coming home later and later, and the fatigue on his face was becoming more and more obvious. She knew that Shen Qingchen's company must be in trouble, but she didn't know that it was all Jiang Yao's fault. Jiang Zhi felt sorry for Shen Qingchen and wanted to help him, but she didn't know where to start.
Jiang Yao watched her plan begin to work, feeling secretly pleased. She felt she was one step closer to success. She continued to observe Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen's reactions from behind, waiting for the right moment to further expand her plan. Her jealousy drove her forward, completely disregarding the potential harm her actions might cause others.
Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen were still immersed in happiness, unaware that a crisis had quietly arrived. They believed it was just a normal challenge in the company's development, and that as long as they worked together, they would be able to overcome it. But they didn't know that a pair of jealous eyes were watching them from behind, ready to bring even greater damage to their happy life.
