Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend

In the gaps between their busy business and life challenges, Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen cherished the leisure time they had when they could take a break from their busy lives. These moments, like springs in the desert, nourished their tired but loving hearts, allowing them to temporarily withdraw from the hustle and bustle of the world and immerse themselves in a warm little world that belonged only to each other.

On a breezy weekend afternoon, the sun shines through the gauze curtains, casting mottled shadows on the ground. Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen lazily nestle on the sofa in the living room, and the surroundings are so quiet that only the ticking of the wall clock can be heard. Jiang Ciyou holds a hardcover edition of a classic literary masterpiece in her hand. Her slender fingers gently stroke the pages of the book, and her eyes are immersed in the words that are still shining after years of precipitation. Occasionally, she will slightly raise the corners of her mouth because of a subtle sentence or a touching plot in the book, revealing a knowing smile.

Lu Jingchen sat beside her, with a fashion magazine casually placed on his lap, but his eyes would occasionally move away from the magazine and secretly look at Jiang Ciyou. Seeing her concentrating on reading, Lu Jingchen's heart was full of tenderness. He felt that Jiang Ciyou was as beautiful as if she had walked out of a painting. It seemed that time had treated her particularly well, leaving no trace of vicissitudes on her face, but adding a bit of gentleness and intelligence.

After a while, Jiang Ciyou seemed to have noticed Lu Jingchen's gaze. She raised her head with a scholarly air in her eyes and joked, "Why, Mr. Lu, the beauties in the luxury cars in the magazine are not as good as my face that I'm used to seeing?" Lu Jingchen was amused by her. He reached out and gently pinched her cheek, and said lovingly, "In my eyes, all the things in the world combined are not as good as you." Jiang Ciyou's cheeks flushed slightly, and she slapped his hand away in annoyance, but said, "You're just a chatterbox." But her heart was as sweet as if it was filled with honey.

After the two laughed for a while, Jiang Ciyou suddenly remembered something, her eyes lit up, and she said, "Jingchen, I recently read a book about the philosophy of life. It discusses many topics about happiness, dreams and the meaning of life. I think it's very interesting. Shall we talk about it?" Lu Jingchen nodded happily. He always liked to have such in-depth exchanges with Jiang Ciyou. Every collision of ideas allowed him to better understand the woman he loved deeply.

Jiang Ciyou sat up straight, cleared her throat, and began to share her thoughts after reading: "You see, the book says that life is like a journey, and each of us is chasing the light in our hearts. Some people regard success and fame as their goals, while others pay more attention to inner peace and satisfaction. I think of the ups and downs we have experienced along the way. Looking back now, those obstacles that we once thought were insurmountable have actually become precious assets for our growth. Just like when I was betrayed on my wedding night, I felt like the sky was falling, but if it weren't for that pain, I might never have met you, and there would be no transformation now." When she said this, a tear flashed in her eyes, but she was touched by the past, and was more grateful for the happiness of the present.

Lu Jingchen gently held her hand and took over the conversation: "Yes, fate is sometimes so wonderful. I used to live a seemingly free and unrestrained life, but I always felt empty inside. Until I met you, I understood that true happiness is to face the ups and downs of life with the one you love, and work hard for your dreams together. You are the brightest star in my life, illuminating my way forward." His eyes were sincere and warm, and Jiang Ciyu was moved to tears by his affectionate confession.

The two chatted back and forth, from the philosophical viewpoints in the book to their own life experiences, from the plans for future careers to the expectations for the details of life. Unconsciously, the angle of the sunlight has quietly changed, and the light and shadow in the living room have also moved with it, but they are unaware of it, immersed in the spiritual resonance brought about by this deep communication.

Tired of chatting, Jiang Ciyou stood up, walked to the piano beside her, and gently opened the piano cover. This piano was specially purchased for her by Lu Jingchen. He knew that Jiang Ciyou had always had a special liking for the piano, and playing a song in her spare time could make her relax. Jiang Ciyou's slender fingers slowly fell on the black and white keys, and a string of beautiful notes flowed out, which was her favorite song "Wedding in a Dream".

Lu Jingchen followed her and stood quietly by the side, watching Jiang Ciyou immersed in the world of music, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously rose. As the melody progressed, he gently walked behind Jiang Ciyou, put his arms around her, rested his chin on the top of her head, and swayed his body with her to the music. Every note played by Jiang Ciyou seemed to carry their past memories, including sweet dating times, the resolute moments of facing difficulties together, and the warm daily trivialities, which were all transformed into this moving melody at this moment, lingering in their hearts.

The song ended, and the lingering sound was still echoing in the air. Jiang Ciyou turned her head slightly and met Lu Jingchen's loving eyes. The two smiled at each other, without words. Everything was in this affectionate exchange of eyes. After a while, Jiang Ciyou stood up, took Lu Jingchen to the small tea table by the window, and said, "Sit down for a while, I'll make you a cup of coffee, and let's completely relax today."

Lu Jingchen smiled and nodded, watching Jiang Ciyou walk towards the kitchen, his heart full of happiness and satisfaction. He knew that such ordinary and warm moments were the true meaning of life they dreamed of. Jiang Ciyou was busy in the kitchen, grinding coffee beans skillfully. With the hum of the machine, the rich aroma of coffee gradually spread. She carefully selected two exquisite coffee cups, which were bought in a niche handicraft store when they traveled abroad last time. The unique patterns on the cups seemed to carry the beautiful memories of that trip.

Jiang Ciyou brought the brewed coffee to the tea table. A thin layer of mist was floating above the steaming coffee cup. The aroma of coffee was refreshing. She sat down opposite Lu Jingchen, blew on the coffee gently, took a sip, and closed her eyes with satisfaction. Lu Jingchen looked at her, picked up the coffee cup, took a sip, and praised: "The coffee you brew is still the most fragrant. I feel very happy every time I drink it." Jiang Ciyou smiled and said: "That's because you have love in your heart, so everything you drink is sweet." The two of them continued to share the little fun things in life while drinking coffee, occasionally laughing at a small detail in a memory, and occasionally falling into a brief silence because of the beautiful vision of the future, but their eyes were full of expectations.

Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun gradually dyed the sky red, and the outline of the city looked particularly gentle under this warm color. Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen stood up, walked to the balcony, held hands, leaned on the railing, and quietly watched this picturesque scene. The streets of the city were busy with cars and people were rushing to the next stop in their lives, but they had their own quiet harbor high above this bustling city.

Jiang Ciyou leaned lightly on Lu Jingchen's shoulder and said with emotion: "Jingchen, don't you think we are very lucky? In this complicated world, we can find each other and have so many wonderful times together." Lu Jingchen tightened his arms, hugged her tighter, and whispered: "This is not luck, we are destined to be together. After going through so many ups and downs, no matter what happens in the future, we will keep walking hand in hand like this." Jiang Ciyou nodded slightly, with a firm light flashing in her eyes. She knew that Lu Jingchen was her lifelong support, and their love would never end like the afterglow of the sunset.

As night falls, the lights of the city light up one by one, like stars falling to the earth. Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen are still standing on the balcony, their figures are stretched very long under the light, as if they want to blend into the night of the city. Occasionally, a breeze blows, ruffling their hair, but it can't blow away the warmth and love in their hearts. At this moment, time seems to stand still, and the whole world is left with only their heartbeats and their tightly held hands, witnessing this unswerving love.

They returned to the living room without turning on the lights, letting the weak light coming in from the window cover the room. Lu Jingchen turned on the stereo, and soft classical music slowly flowed out, adding a romantic atmosphere to this quiet night. Jiang Ciyou walked to the bookshelf, picked out a collection of poems, returned to the sofa, snuggled in Lu Jingchen's arms, and recited those beautiful poems softly. Every word uttered from her mouth seemed to carry magic, making Lu Jingchen intoxicated. They were immersed in this poetic atmosphere, forgetting all the noise and disturbances of the outside world, and only focusing on each other's company and the fusion of souls.

It was late at night, Jiang Ciyou felt a little sleepy, and her eyelids gradually became heavy. Lu Jingchen noticed her tiredness, gently picked her up and walked towards the bedroom. After putting her on the bed, Lu Jingchen covered her with a soft quilt, gently kissed her forehead, and said gently: "Go to sleep, dear, have a good dream." Jiang Ciyou smiled slightly and murmured: "With you here, every day is a good dream." Then, she fell into a deep sleep.

Lu Jingchen lay beside her, looking sideways at Jiang Ciyou's peaceful sleeping face, his heart full of tenderness. He gently held her hand, as if this could give her endless sense of security. In this quiet night, Lu Jingchen reviewed every detail of their acquaintance, from the initial encounter, to the twists and turns in the middle, to the happiness and sweetness today, every scene was as clear as yesterday. He knew that this love was hard-won, and he cherished the person lying beside him even more. He secretly vowed that no matter how many challenges awaited them in the future, he would use all his strength to protect Jiang Ciyou and let her live in happiness forever.

The moonlight shines through the window onto the bed, casting a layer of silver light on the couple. They sleep in each other's arms, just like the prince and princess in a fairy tale, who finally find their own happy destination after experiencing countless hardships. The warmth and tranquility of this night is just one of the countless beautiful moments in their long life, but it is enough for them to remember for a lifetime, becoming an eternal comfort in their hearts, and inspiring them to work together in the future and write their own love legend.
