During their interactions, Jiang Zhi discovered that Shen Qingchen had changed significantly. He was no longer the cold, profit-seeking CEO who only cared about the business world, but had become more thoughtful and warm. He used to focus solely on the company's growth and expansion, but now, he cared about the sick children in the hospital and donated medical supplies to needy patients.
Once, Jiang Zhi saw Shen Qingchen playing with a young patient in the hospital corridor. The patient was feeling down and depressed due to his illness, so Shen Qingchen magically pulled a small toy from his pocket, making the child burst into laughter. His eyes were filled with tenderness, a side of him Jiang Zhi had never seen before. At that moment, Jiang Zhi's heart trembled slightly, and she began to re-evaluate this man who had once been familiar yet strange.
Together, they participated in a charity event organized by the hospital, providing health checkups for the elderly in the community. During the event, Shen Qingchen busied himself with helping medical staff move equipment and organize the elderly into queues. He patiently listened to the elderly's nagging and carefully put a coat on them to prevent them from catching a cold. Jiang Zhi noticed that when communicating with the elderly, he always bent down and maintained a level eye contact, showing sufficient respect. These details, like small pebbles, caused ripples in Jiang Zhi's previously calm heart.
In his free time, Shen Qingchen would share his recent life with Jiang Zhi. He talked about how he started learning to cook because he wanted to know what it was like to cook for someone he loved. He described his frantic behavior in the kitchen, the burnt bottoms of the pots, the failed dishes, all of which became material for his self-deprecating humor. Jiang Zhi couldn't help but laugh, and this laughter seemed to break the barrier between them.
Shen Qingchen also told Jiang Zhi about his involvement in charitable projects, helping children who had dropped out of school due to poverty return to school. He personally visited the mountainous areas and was deeply moved by the children's simple learning environments and their eager eyes for knowledge. He said he wanted to create better conditions for these children and give them the opportunity to change their own destinies. Jiang Zhi listened quietly, sensing the sincerity in Shen Qingchen's words. He was no longer someone who lived solely in the business world.
One day, Jiang Zhi finished work at the hospital and walked out tiredly, only to find Shen Qingchen waiting for her at the gate. He took Jiang Zhi to a peaceful park, and the two strolled along the lake. Shen Qingchen recounted his emotional journey to Jiang Zhi. He said that after separating from Jiang Zhi, his world seemed to have lost its color. He once believed that business success was everything, but after losing Jiang Zhi, he realized that love and family are the most precious things.
He began to reflect on his past actions, realizing that in the pursuit of his goals, he had neglected the feelings of those around him. He regretted hurting Jiang Zhi in the name of protection; it was the most foolish decision of his life. He said that during those lonely days, he often thought of the little moments he had spent with Jiang Zhi. Those sweet moments and warm hugs became the strength that kept him going.
He told Jiang Zhi that he was working hard to change and become a better person. He was learning how to care for others and how to love, all so that he could one day win Jiang Zhi's heart back. He knew that his mistakes could not be easily forgiven, but he hoped that Jiang Zhi would see his efforts and changes.
Jiang Zhi listened quietly, her heart filled with complex emotions. On the one hand, the pain in her heart still lingered, a deep wound left by Shen Qingchen's betrayal; yet on the other hand, she could sense Shen Qingchen's sincerity, and his transformation was like a ray of light shining into her dark world. They sat down on a bench by the lake, the afterglow of the setting sun casting a light on them, creating a warm yet slightly sad scene.
Shen Qingchen looked into Jiang Zhi's eyes, which were full of love and expectation. He gently held Jiang Zhi's hand and said, "Jiang Zhi, I know I still have a long way to go, but I hope you can give me a chance to prove myself. I don't want to miss you again. You are the most important person in my life." Jiang Zhi's hand trembled slightly. She felt the warmth of Shen Qingchen's palm, which seemed to melt the ice in her heart.
She looked at Shen Qingchen, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, and then she said slowly: "Shen Qingchen, I have seen your changes, but I am really afraid of being hurt again. The pain between us is not so easy to erase." Shen Qingchen held her hand tightly and said: "I know, I will use my actions to make you believe in me again. I will not let you down again, no matter how long it takes."
In the days that followed, they had more opportunities to spend time together. Once, the hospital organized a medical lecture, inviting many experts and colleagues. Jiang Zhi, a key member of the hospital, participated, while Shen Qingchen assisted as a volunteer. During the lecture preparations, Shen Qingchen demonstrated his excellent organizational skills. He helped arrange seating, debugged equipment, and ensured everything was in perfect order.
During the lecture, an expert mentioned a complicated case, and everyone present fell into deep thought. Jiang Zhi was also thinking about a solution. At this time, Shen Qingchen walked over to her and said softly: "I remember seeing a similar case before. Maybe we can start from this angle." He explained his thoughts in detail. Jiang Zhi looked at him in surprise. She didn't expect that he also had a certain understanding of medical knowledge. Shen Qingchen smiled and said: "In order to have more common topics with you, I have been learning."
Another time, the hospital needed to perform a special operation on a seriously ill patient and needed to raise a lot of medical resources. After Shen Qingchen learned about it, he took the initiative to use his connections and resources to contact various suppliers and charities. He personally participated in the resource allocation process to ensure that every link was correct. After the operation was successful, Jiang Zhi expressed his gratitude to Shen Qingchen for his help, but Shen Qingchen smiled and said, "This is what I should do. As long as you and the patient are fine, it's fine."
