Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend

Chapter 999 Eternal Poem

In an old house covered with roses at the edge of the city, Jiang Ciyou's great-granddaughter Jiang Shiyun often sits alone in front of a window filled with sunlight, with an ancient notebook spread out in front of her. It was a relic of her great-grandmother Jiang Ciyou that she accidentally found in a junk box. The pages are yellowed, exuding the breath of time, and each line of beautiful handwriting seems to be telling stories of the past, carrying the deep affection that transcends time.

Jiang Shiyun has been extremely sensitive to words since she was a child. The few words written by her great-grandmother planted the seeds of poetry in her heart. As she grew older, the seeds broke through the soil and grew strong under the nourishment of life. She began to try to use poems to describe the world in her eyes and the emotions in her heart. From the immature exercises in the campus, she gradually grew into a cutting-edge poet that attracted everyone's attention.

When preparing for her first poetry collection, Jiang Shiyun's mind was always lingering on the legendary love between her great-grandmother and great-grandfather Lu Jingchen. Those fragments she heard from her elders and accumulated in the family stories, like twinkling stars, illuminated the night sky of her creation. She knew very well that this ups and downs, from broken to perfect love, was the most precious wealth of the family, and it was also a beautiful example of true love in the world, worthy of being remembered and passed on with the most moving poems.

On a quiet evening, the afterglow shone through the carved window lattice onto Jiang Shiyun's desk, as if to give a golden edge to the first draft of the collection of poems. She picked up the pen, her eyes firm and gentle, and wrote down the name of the collection of poems - "Sunset and Eternity". This name is not only a poetic condensation of the love of her great-grandparents, but also full of her profound understanding of love and life. In her heart, the love of her great-grandparents is like the sunset that never sets. Even after going through wind and rain and passing through darkness, it can still illuminate the long river of time with endless warmth and light; even if it faces the end, it will be reborn in a more splendid posture in the cycle of time, shining forever.

On the day the collection was released, the spring breeze blew gently, and the streets and alleys of the city were filled with the fragrance of flowers and hope. In the bookstore window, Sunset and Eternity was carefully displayed, with a warm-toned illustration on the cover: Under the golden sunset, a pair of lovers walked hand in hand on the beach, their figures were stretched very long, as if they were about to blend into the sparkling sea and become one with the world. Readers were attracted by this romantic cover and opened the collection one after another, entering the emotional world constructed by Jiang Shiyun with words.

One of the poems, titled "The Afterglow of Love," quickly became popular among readers:

"On the shallows of time, their footprints

Washed repeatedly by the tide of time

But it never disappears, like stars embedded in the sand of memory

That night, betrayal was like a cold frost blade

Cut off the brocade of dreams, let the heart fall into the cold winter

She struggled in despair, shedding tears on the wedding curtain

And he, like a beam of light penetrating the haze

Using gentleness as a boat, carrying a broken soul

Drifting in the ocean of love, finding the other side of hope

From the absurd opening of keeping a mistress to the heart-warming moment of knowing each other

Every look, every touch

They are like sparks that ignite the fire of love and dispel the haze of the past

Three years of leisure time is a journey of love

Mountains, rivers, lakes and seas witnessed their laughter and growth

Although there are twists and turns, it makes the true heart more hot

At the birthday party of the richest man, the gears of fate turn again

The revelation of life experience and the entanglement of old love

Love is tested in the stormy seas

At the crossroads of truth and choice, they held hands tightly

Use trust to resist rumors and sincerity to resolve crises

Even if life and death are at stake, love is as solid as a rock

Behind the gorgeous counterattack is the power of love

She rose from pain to become a business legend

He accompanies you with deep affection and builds a harbor of happiness together

As time goes by, black hair gradually turns into white hair

Their love has never faded

Like the setting sun, burning through the darkness and warming the years

Even if it falls, it will be the next morning

Rise with a more splendid posture and shine forever

Under the sky of time, write an immortal legend"

This poem is not just a combination of words, but also a heartfelt tribute to the love of her great-grandparents. Every word is full of her respect and emotion; every line flows with the deep affection that transcends time and space. Readers are immersed in the artistic conception of the poem, as if they have witnessed the magnificent love epic of Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen with their own eyes.

At a poetry sharing session, the lights were softly shining on the stage, and Jiang Shiyun walked onto the stage slowly, holding a collection of poems in her hands. The audience was full of people who loved poetry, and their eyes were full of expectation and curiosity. Jiang Shiyun gently opened the collection, cleared her throat, and recited "The Afterglow of Love" in her gentle and infectious voice.

The recitation echoed in the air, like a stream of clear water flowing into the hearts of the audience. Some readers had tears in their eyes. They were moved by the love in the poem, and perhaps saw their own love and hatred in it; others closed their eyes slightly, immersed in the beautiful rhythm and profound artistic conception, as if they were traveling through time and space with Jiang Shiyun, witnessing every moment of Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen.

When the last word fell, there was a moment of silence, and then thunderous applause broke out. A gray-haired old man stood up, holding a copy of Sunset and Eternity in his hand, and said with a trembling voice: "My child, you have awakened our deep desire for true love with poetry. This is not just words, it is the singing of the soul and the inheritance of love. If your great-grandparents are still alive, they will definitely be proud of you."

Jiang Shiyun's eyes sparkled with tears of excitement, and she bowed slightly to express her gratitude. She knew that she was carrying the emotions and memories of her family, and this poem and this collection of poems were just a beginning. She hoped that through her words, more people would believe in the power of love. No matter how much suffering life brings, true love can be like the sunset, even if it hides for a short time, it will shine again.

Since then, Sunset and Eternity has been translated into many languages ​​and spread all over the world. In foreign bookstores, readers of different skin colors hold the poetry collection in their hands and are shocked by the love story of Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen. Some young people copy down the sentences in the poem and stick them on the headboard of the bed as a motto to encourage themselves to bravely pursue love; some couples read it aloud on a date, letting this romance that transcends time and space add a different color to their love.

Jiang Shiyun also received letters from readers around the world. One letter from a war-torn country wrote: "In this desperate land, your poems are like a beam of light, illuminating our longing for peace and love. The love story of your great-grandparents makes us believe that even in the darkness, love has never gone away, and it always has the power to lead us to the dawn."

Reading these letters, Jiang Shiyun became more determined in her creative beliefs. She began to frequently participate in charity activities, using poetry to bring hope and strength to those in difficult situations. In the orphanage, she recited poems to the children, and seeing the twinkling light in the children's eyes, she seemed to see her great-grandmother protecting her family with love; in the hospital ward, her poems made the patients in pain smile and gave them the courage to overcome the disease, just like her great-grandfather Lu Jingchen never left her great-grandmother in the most difficult time.

As time goes by, Jiang Shiyun's poems become more mature and profound, and her name shines in the poetry world. But she never forgets that the original intention of her creation comes from the love of her great-grandparents. Every time a new collection of poems is published, she will write on the title page: "Dedicated to the eternal love in my heart - my great-grandparents. May their stories, like stars, illuminate every soul that pursues love."

In the old house of the family, Jiang Shiyun has specially opened a showroom, with photos of her great-grandparents hanging on the walls, and different versions of Sunset and Eternity and reports about this poetry collection from all over the world on the bookshelf. Whenever a new member of the family is born or the younger generation falls into emotional confusion, this place becomes a source of strength for them.

As time went by, Jiang Shiyun also changed from a young girl to an elegant middle-aged poet. But she never stopped writing poems about the love of her great-grandparents. She spent her life writing and passing on this love, letting it be like a lighthouse that never goes out in the long river of time, guiding the direction of love for future generations.

It was another sunset evening. Jiang Shiyun sat in the courtyard of the old house, holding the latest poetry collection proofs in her hands. The cover still showed the familiar sunset and lovers. She looked up at the blood-red setting sun in the sky, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she whispered softly: "Great-grandparents, look, your love is continuing in the world with the most beautiful poems, never stopping..." The breeze blew, and the rose petals fell one after another, as if it was a gentle response from another time and space, telling of the eternal love.
