After returning home, Shen Qingchen sat on the sofa and was silent for a long time. His eyes were empty as he looked ahead, but his thoughts were tangled like a tangled mess. Jiang Zhi looked at him, and the uneasiness in her heart became stronger and stronger. She could feel the depression and heaviness emanating from Shen Qingchen, which she had never seen before.
Finally, Shen Qingchen spoke with difficulty: "Zhi'er, let's get a divorce." His voice was very low, as if he had exhausted all his strength to say this. The voice was particularly clear in the silent room, but it exploded in Jiang Zhi's ears like a bolt from the blue.
Jiang Zhi's eyes widened, unable to believe her ears. Her lips trembled slightly, and her voice trembled with it: "Qingchen, what are you talking about? Why do you want a divorce?" Her eyes instantly filled with tears, and the tears swirled in her eye sockets, as if they would burst out at any time.
Shen Qingchen didn't dare to look into Jiang Zhi's eyes. He lowered his head, avoiding the gaze that made him feel distressed. His heart was struggling in pain, but he still endured the pain in his heart and said those words against his will: "I don't love you anymore. There is no point for us to be together." He knew that these words would hurt Jiang Zhi's heart like a knife, but he had no choice. Only in this way could he make her give up on him and protect her from the impending danger.
Jiang Zhi looked at Shen Qingchen. She didn't believe he would say such a thing. They had loved each other so much and had experienced so many wonderful times together. Those memories flashed through her mind like a movie. "Qingchen, do you have any difficulties? Tell me, we will face it together." She grabbed Shen Qingchen's hand and said eagerly, her eyes full of expectation, hoping that Shen Qingchen could give her a reasonable explanation, a reason that was not a divorce.
Shen Qingchen shook off Jiang Zhi's hand, his movements were a little stiff, because he didn't really want to do this. He stood up, turned his back to Jiang Zhi, and said, "There's no hardship, I just don't love you anymore. Let's get a divorce, it's good for both you and me." After that, he turned and walked into the room, leaving Jiang Zhi sitting alone on the sofa, tears streaming down her face.
Jiang Zhi sat on the sofa, her body trembling slightly, her tears dripping continuously, wetting the fabric of the sofa. Her mind was in a mess, and she kept thinking about what Shen Qingchen had just said. "How can he just say he doesn't love me anymore? Is the relationship between us so fragile?" She said to herself, her voice full of pain and despair.
She recalled the journey of their acquaintance, their friendship, and their love. Every moment had been so beautiful, so unforgettable. They'd strolled through the park together, hand in hand, admiring the sunset. They'd been so happy then. They'd cooked together at home, enjoying their own warm moments, their smiles beaming. But now, was it all coming to an end?
Jiang Zhi didn't believe that Shen Qingchen would suddenly change her mind. She felt that there must be some reason. She decided to have a good talk with Shen Qingchen and find out the truth of the matter. She stood up and walked towards Shen Qingchen's room. Her hand was on the doorknob, but she hesitated. She was afraid to hear Shen Qingchen say those hurtful words again, but she was unwilling to give up.
Finally, she mustered up the courage to open the door. Shen Qingchen was sitting on the edge of the bed, with his head down, not knowing what he was thinking. Jiang Zhi walked over, sat next to him, and said softly: "Qingchen, I know you must be hiding something from me. We have been through so much together, can't you just trust me? No matter what difficulties we encounter, we can face them together."
Shen Qingchen raised his head and looked at Jiang Zhi, a trace of pain and helplessness flashing in his eyes. He knew that Jiang Zhi would not give up easily, but he could not tell her the truth, as that would only put her in a more dangerous situation. "Zhi'er, I'm telling you, I have nothing to hide from you. I just don't love you anymore. Don't bother me anymore, let's part ways amicably." His tone was a little cold, trying to make Jiang Zhi give up on him.
Jiang Zhi looked into Shen Qingchen's eyes, trying to find a flaw in his expression to prove that he was lying. But all she saw was determination and indifference, which hurt her heart again. "Shen Qingchen, how could you be so cruel? Have you forgotten the oath we once made?" Her voice rose a few degrees, with a hint of anger and despair.
Shen Qingchen turned his head and stopped looking at Jiang Zhi. His heart was filled with guilt, but he knew he had to do it. "The vow? Those are just things of the past. I am no longer the same person I used to be. Please go. I want to be alone for a while." His voice was calm, but every word was like a knife, piercing Jiang Zhi's heart.
Jiang Zhi stood up, tears blurring her eyes again. She looked at Shen Qingchen, her heart filled with pain and helplessness. "Okay, Shen Qingchen, since you are so heartless, I won't bother you anymore. But remember, I will definitely find out the truth of the matter." After saying that, she turned and left the room, returned to her own room, and closed the door.
After returning to her room, Jiang Zhi threw herself on the bed and burst into tears. Her heart was filled with grievance and pain. She didn't understand why Shen Qingchen had suddenly become like this. She thought of every little bit of their time together, and those beautiful memories had now become a pain in her heart. She didn't know what to do. She loved Shen Qingchen and didn't want to give up on their relationship. But Shen Qingchen's attitude made her feel desperate. She didn't know how to save this relationship.
After crying for a long time, Jiang Zhi gradually calmed down. She knew that crying would not solve the problem, and she had to be strong. She decided to start with the people around Shen Qingchen to see if she could find some clues. She thought of Shen Qingchen's good friend Lin Yu, maybe he would know something.
