Shen Qingchen's eyes also became cold. He held Jiang Zhi's hand tightly, as if to give her strength to resist those painful memories: "It's all my fault. I failed to protect you and made you suffer so much. I filed for divorce with the intention of protecting you, but I didn't expect to hurt you even more."
Jiang Zhi shook his head gently, his eyes filled with understanding and tolerance. "I understand your difficulties. You had no choice under the circumstances at the time. However, those days were really hard for me. I had to deal with Jiang Yao's difficulties on the one hand, and investigate the truth on my own on the other. Many times, I felt like I couldn't hold on any longer."
Shen Qingchen hugged Jiang Zhi tighter, her voice choked with sobs: "I watched you suffer, but was powerless to do anything. That feeling is worse than killing me. Every time I see your strength when facing difficulties alone, I admire and regret it in my heart. I hate why I couldn't solve these troubles earlier so that you can live in peace."
Jiang Zhi raised her head and saw the tears flashing in Shen Qingchen's eyes. She was moved. She raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, saying softly: "It's all over. Didn't we all get through it? Later, I found out that I was pregnant. At that moment, I was really surprised and happy. Although I was in a difficult situation, the arrival of this little life gave me new hope and strength."
Shen Qingchen's eyes fell on Jiang Zhi's abdomen. Although there was no sign of pregnancy there, he seemed to still see what Jiang Zhi looked like when she was pregnant. His heart was full of tenderness: "But I missed too much at that time. I couldn't be with you and watch the child grow up day by day. How hard it must have been for you alone."
Jiang Zhi smiled and comforted her, "Although it's hard, it's all worth it because I have my child by my side. The moment my daughter was born, I looked at her wrinkled little face and my heart was filled with joy. I secretly vowed to protect her and give her a happy future."
Shen Qingchen gently stroked Jiang Zhi's hair, her eyes full of guilt: "I know you have sacrificed too much for your child. Later, we reunited and fought against the mysterious organization together. Every time I see your heroic figure on the battlefield, I am proud of you. You are not only a great mother, but also a brave warrior."
Jiang Zhi leaned on Shen Qingchen's shoulder, recalling those thrilling battles: "Those were difficult days. We faced enormous dangers. If we weren't careful, we could lose everything. But we supported each other, trusted each other, and ultimately overcame all difficulties. Looking back now, those moments of sharing life and death have only deepened our bond."
Shen Qingchen nodded slightly and said with emotion: "Yes, after so many ups and downs, our love has long been as solid as a rock. Those laughter and tears in the past are all witnesses of our journey and the most precious treasure in our lives."
Jiang Zhi raised his head and looked at Shen Qingchen with a firm gaze: "The road ahead is still long, and we still have many challenges to face. But I believe that as long as we walk hand in hand, nothing can stop us. We want to watch our children grow up, watch our family prosper, and create more beautiful memories that belong to us."
Shen Qingchen held Jiang Zhi's hand tightly, with a glimmer of hope in his eyes: "It will definitely happen. We have gone through so many hardships and obstacles together, and we will definitely be able to hold on to the happiness of the future."
Under the moonlight, the two sat in each other's arms, lost in memories of the past and full of anticipation for the future. They knew that life might not always be smooth sailing, but as long as they were together, those beautiful memories would always illuminate their path forward, becoming a warm flame in their hearts that would never go out.
As time slipped by, the breeze remained gentle, the fragrance of the flowers intensified, as if the entire world were offering its best wishes to this couple, who had weathered so much hardship yet remained steadfast in their love. They sat quietly, savoring this moment of peace and warmth, letting the tide of memories flow through their hearts, until the night deepened and the stars twinkled, shrouding their figures in a dreamlike veil, like an eternal painting, frozen in the river of time.
