After navigating countless bloody battles, successfully destroying the mysterious organization and bringing Jiang Lingchuan, Gu Manqi, and other criminals to justice, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen finally embraced the peaceful life they had longed for. The thrilling road of revenge, the years of separation filled with suspicion and pain, have now become a shimmering memory, bearing scars but also forging their unbreakable love and faith.
The morning light filtered through the gauze curtains, gently spilling onto the large bed where Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen clung to each other. Jiang Zhi slowly awoke, her eyes met Shen Qingchen's loving gaze, a gaze that seemed to warm her heart. They exchanged a smile, words unnecessary; their eyes were filled with cherishment for the present moment. Standing up, they stepped onto the window-side terrace, where fresh air washed over them. Before them lay a lush, verdant courtyard, ablaze with flowers and lush green grass. This was the warm home they had built together for their family.
After breakfast, their children ran to them like two happy little deer. The son held a business magazine in his hands, his eyes sparkling with excitement, and said crisply: "Mom and Dad, I saw this. Now there are many children in many places who don’t have enough school supplies, and many sick people have no money to see a doctor. Can we help them?" The daughter also echoed, holding the corner of Jiang Zhi’s clothes with her little hand and shaking it gently: "Mom, I want those children to be happy too." Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen looked at each other, and saw the seeds of kindness sprouting in their children’s innocent eyes, and their hearts were filled with relief.
They know full well that their current stable lives are hard-earned, purchased with countless sweat, tears, and even blood. Past hardships have made them cherish the warmth of the present even more, and have made them realize that their responsibilities extend far beyond simply protecting their families. Jiang Zhi recalled the eager eyes of children he saw during free clinics in impoverished areas, and the helpless faces of patients in their hospital beds. Shen Qingchen also recalled the small business owners he met during his entrepreneurial journey, struggling with limited funds and resources. Now that they have the means, it's time to give back to society and illuminate the light of hope for even more people.
So, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen decided to set up a charitable fund. This was not an impulsive act, but a prudent decision made after careful consideration. In the early stages of preparation, they frequently called together professionals in the family who were good at finance, law, and operations, and sat in a spacious and bright conference room to discuss the structure and operation model of the charitable fund again and again. With many years of experience in the business world, Shen Qingchen put forward many constructive suggestions on fund raising, management and investment. He said with a firm look: "Every penny of our money must be spent on the blade, and we must ensure that we can really help those who need it most." Jiang Zhi, from the professional perspective of medical care and education, planned the aid project in detail. She added softly and firmly: "Medical assistance cannot just stay on the surface. A long-term assistance mechanism must be established. Education support must go deep into remote areas so that every child has the opportunity to receive an education."
To raise awareness of the charity fund and attract more philanthropists, they meticulously planned a grand gala dinner. That evening, celebrities and business leaders flocked to the event. The lights came on, and the banquet hall was ablaze with splendor. Crystal chandeliers cast a dazzling glow, illuminating the guests' exquisite attire. Jiang Zhi, dressed in a simple yet elegant white dress, walked hand-in-hand with the handsome Shen Qingchen, dressed in a dark suit. They smiled as they moved among the guests. They passionately shared the foundation's vision and plans, each word brimming with sincerity, each look conveying determination. When Jiang Zhi mentioned those who have lost hope due to poverty, tears welled in her eyes, moving the audience with emotion. Shen Qingchen, with his calm and powerful words, expounded on the tangible changes the foundation would bring to society, earning rounds of applause.
A special exhibition area at the banquet venue vividly showcased the current conditions of those in dire need of assistance through images and videos. The dilapidated classrooms, the rudimentary medical facilities, and the innocent faces of the children, yet bearing the marks of hardship, deeply touched every visitor. Many guests generously donated large checks into the donation box, while others offered to join the volunteer team, donating their time and energy to the charity. At that moment, a warm current of love surged through the hall, coalescing into a powerful force.
After the charity fund was established, its first project was to build a Hope Primary School in a remote mountainous area. Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen personally led the team, setting foot on the rugged terrain. The winding mountain road, the bumpy ride, and the dust rising high in the sky, but their passion remained undimmed. Upon arrival, the scene before them was heartbreaking. The dilapidated school building was crumbling, the desks and chairs in the classroom were incomplete, and the children, wearing worn but neat clothes, their eyes filled with a thirst for knowledge. Jiang Zhi, with a look of heartache, squatted down, hugged the children in his arms, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, children. We will help you build a beautiful school so that you can go to school." Shen Qingchen immediately discussed the school construction plan with the accompanying engineers. His eyes were focused, his fingers gesturing on the blueprints, striving to create the most suitable environment for the children to learn and grow.
The construction process was naturally fraught with difficulties. Heavy rains during the transportation of building materials created muddy roads, with vehicles frequently getting stuck in pits. Construction also encountered geological challenges, posing a significant challenge to the foundation's stability. Undeterred, Jiang Zhi and Shen Qingchen shared space with the workers, working alongside them in the rain and mud. Jiang Zhi fully utilized her organizational skills, mobilizing resources and ensuring the timely delivery of building materials. Shen Qingchen, drawing on her solid engineering knowledge, worked tirelessly with experts to overcome the geological challenges. After months of arduous work, a modern Hope Primary School emerged. Its brand-new teaching building, spacious and bright classrooms, and well-equipped laboratories and libraries became a haven for the dreams of children in the mountainous area.
