He knew that there was still a long way between him and Jiang Zhi, but he was willing to walk towards her step by step, even if the road was full of thorns and bumps. He believed that one day, Jiang Zhi would see his changes and accept him again.
Jiang Zhi, on the other hand, though outwardly indifferent to Shen Qingchen's actions, was actually not as calm as she appeared. In the quiet of the night, she would recall Shen Qingchen's eyes and all he had done for her. She knew her feelings for Shen Qingchen hadn't completely faded, but she didn't dare open her heart easily. She was afraid of being hurt again, afraid that those painful memories would overwhelm her once again.
In the hospital, Jiang Zhi tried hard to focus on her work. She used her busyness to numb herself and not think about Shen Qingchen. But sometimes, she would still think of him inadvertently. For example, when she saw the familiar bouquet of flowers at the hospital entrance, she would remember that Shen Qingchen had given her the same flowers; when she saw the couple cuddling each other on the hospital bed, she would remember the sweet time she and Shen Qingchen had spent together.
These memories made Jiang Zhi's mood even more complicated. She didn't know how to face Shen Qingchen, nor did she know what her future with him would be. She could only choose to escape, at least before she had enough courage to face this relationship.
One day, Jiang Zhi met an elderly woman in the hospital corridor. The woman had fallen down, and everyone around her was panicking and calling for a doctor. Jiang Zhi hurried over, helped the woman up, and began to examine her. During this time, the elderly woman looked at Jiang Zhi, smiled, and said, "Girl, you are such a kind child. You know, love is like the patients in this hospital. Sometimes they get sick, but as long as you treat them with care, there is hope for recovery."
Jiang Zhi's heart moved slightly after hearing the old man's words. She knew that the old man was hinting at her and Shen Qingchen's feelings, but she did not speak, but just silently treated the old man's wound.
After the old man left, Jiang Zhi stood in the corridor, lost in thought. She didn't know whether she should listen to the old man and give Shen Qingchen a chance, or continue to stick to her own ideas and keep her distance from him. This was a difficult decision for her.
Meanwhile, Shen Qingchen continues his efforts to win Jiang Zhi back. He begins studying how to better understand her inner world, reading psychology books and consulting relationship experts. He hopes these methods will help him find the key to opening Jiang Zhi's heart.
He also began to change his lifestyle. Instead of focusing solely on work, he now spent more time participating in charity events and helping those in need. He hoped that through these changes, Jiang Zhi would see a new side of himself.
During a charity event, Shen Qingchen met a little girl. The little girl was seriously ill, but she remained optimistic and strong. Shen Qingchen was moved by the little girl's spirit. He chatted with the little girl, drew pictures with her, and told her interesting stories. The little girl looked at Shen Qingchen and smiled and said, "Uncle, you are so kind. You must have someone you love very much, because you smell like love."
Shen Qingchen felt a pang of sadness when he heard the little girl's words. He thought of Jiang Zhi, and he hoped that Jiang Zhi could also feel his change and his love for her.
As time went on, Shen Qingchen changed more and more. His friends and family saw his efforts and hoped that Shen Qingchen could successfully win back Jiang Zhi. They would inadvertently mention Shen Qingchen's changes to Jiang Zhi, hoping that Jiang Zhi would change her mind about Shen Qingchen.
However, Jiang Zhi was still hesitant. She didn't know whether these changes were just a momentary impulse of Shen Qingchen or whether he had really changed completely. She needed more time to observe and confirm her heart.
During this process, the relationship between Shen Qingchen and Jiang Zhi was like a delicate game. Shen Qingchen was constantly attacking, while Jiang Zhi was cautiously defending. They were both waiting for an opportunity to break the deadlock, but this opportunity seemed to be very far away.
One day, Jiang Zhi was researching in the hospital library. She stumbled across a book about love and redemption. She picked it up and sat in a corner to read. The story deeply moved her. The plot about the struggles of love and redemption seemed to mirror her and Shen Qingchen's own experiences.
She couldn't help but think of her past with Shen Qingchen. They used to love each other so much and spent so many wonderful times together. But then, because of Shen Qingchen's betrayal, everything changed. She didn't know whether she should let go of the hatred of the past and embrace love again, just like the protagonist in the book.
Just as Jiang Zhi was lost in thought, Shen Qingchen also came to the hospital library. He came to donate a batch of books to the hospital, but he didn't expect to meet Jiang Zhi here. He saw Jiang Zhi sitting in the corner, reading a book seriously, and his focused expression made him feel moved.
He walked over quietly and stopped not far from Jiang Zhi. He did not disturb Jiang Zhi, but just looked at her quietly. He hoped that time would stop at this moment, so that he could enjoy this rare tranquility for a while longer.
After a while, Jiang Zhi felt someone was watching her. She raised her head and saw Shen Qingchen. Her heart was in a panic, and she subconsciously wanted to leave.
Seeing this, Shen Qingchen hurriedly said: “Jiang Zhi, don’t be nervous. I just came here to donate books. I didn’t expect to meet you here.”
Jiang Zhi didn't say anything. She stood up and prepared to leave.
Shen Qingchen hurriedly stepped forward and stopped Jiang Zhi: "Jiang Zhi, I know you are still angry with me, but I hope you can give me some time and listen to me. I have really changed a lot during this period of time. I participated in charity activities and helped those in need. I am trying to make myself a better person. I know these may not be enough to make up for the harm I have done to you, but I hope you can see my efforts."
