Rebirth of Love: Jiang Ciyou's Counterattack Legend

Chapter 655: Advice from a Friend

When Jiang Ciyou's best friend Lin Yue learned about her situation, she was extremely worried and immediately put down what she was doing and rushed to see her. The two of them met in a quiet cafe. The afternoon sun shone through the window onto the wooden table, forming patches of light and shadow, but it could not dispel the haze in Jiang Ciyou's heart.

Lin Yue rushed in through the door and saw Jiang Ciyou sitting in the corner with a lonely look. She walked over quickly, pulled out a chair and sat down, her eyes full of concern: "Ciyou, tell me what's going on? I'm really worried about your recent condition."

Jiang Ciyou raised her head, her eyes full of confusion and helplessness. She gently stirred the coffee in front of her. After a moment of silence, she slowly spoke: "Yueyue, I really don't know what to do. Lu Jingchen is very good to me, so good that sometimes I feel like I'm dreaming. But his identity... I always feel that something is wrong. I investigated him and found some very complicated things. I'm afraid that I will get into trouble again."

Lin Yue frowned, held Jiang Ciyou's hand and said, "Ciyou, I understand how you feel now. Love is beautiful, but you can't ignore the reality. Look at how much you were hurt by your husband's betrayal before. You must be careful this time and don't let yourself get hurt again."

"I know, Yueyue, I don't want this either. The time I spent with Lu Jingchen was really happy. He stayed by my side when I was sick and took care of me in every possible way. Whenever I encountered difficulties, he was always the first to step forward and help me solve them. Those memories are very precious to me, and I can't bear to give them up like this." Jiang Ciyou's voice was a little choked, with tears flashing in his eyes.

Lin Yue sighed softly, patted Jiang Ciyou's hand and said, "I understand that memories are hard to let go. But you also have to think about it. There may be many things hidden behind Lu Jingchen's identity that you don't know. What is his relationship with that mysterious organization? Does he have other purposes for approaching you? You have to figure out these questions."

Jiang Ciyou shook his head helplessly: "I also want to figure it out, but the more I investigate, the more confused I feel. The clues I found are very scattered, and every time I go a little deeper, I encounter various obstacles and even threats. I am really scared now, Yueyue."

Lin Yue's eyes became firm: "Ciyou, no matter what, you must ensure your own safety first. Maybe you should keep a little distance from Lu Jingchen for the time being and figure these things out first. You can't ignore your future and safety because of a momentary emotional impulse."

"But how can I do this? I've fallen in love with him. Every time I see him, I can't help but want to get closer to him. I know this is dangerous, but I can't control my emotions." Jiang Ciyou's face showed a painful expression.

Lin Yue looked at Jiang Ciyou and said seriously, "Ciyou, you have to be rational. Think about it, if Lu Jingchen really loves you, he will understand you. You can talk to him frankly, tell him your concerns, and see his reaction. If he really has no problem, he will be willing to give you time and space to figure these things out."

Jiang Ciyou nodded, but hesitated: "I'm afraid that if I talk to him, it will affect our relationship. And my husband has been putting pressure on me. He threatened that if I don't come back to him, he will ruin my reputation. I'm really in a dilemma now."

When Lin Yue heard this, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes: "Your husband is really too much! He betrayed you in the past, and now he has the nerve to come back and threaten you. Ciyou, you must not be scared by his words, you must face him bravely. As for Lu Jingchen, you still have to consider it carefully. You can observe his behavior more and see if he is really worthy of your trust."

"I know, Yueyue, I will try my best. But I'm very confused now and don't know where to start." Jiang Ciyou's voice was full of fatigue.

Lin Yue thought for a moment and said, "You can start with Lu Jingchen's family and learn about his family background. Maybe you can get some useful information from his family. As for that mysterious organization, you should try to collect more information about them to see what they are doing. But you must pay attention to safety and don't put yourself in greater danger."

Jiang Ciyou looked at Lin Yue gratefully: "Yueyue, thank you. When I was most confused, you always gave me some advice. I will do as you say."

Lin Yue smiled and said, "We are best friends. This is what I should do. Ciyou, you have to believe in yourself and you will definitely make the right choice. No matter what difficulties you encounter, I will always be by your side to support you."

The two chatted for a while, and Lin Yue left with peace of mind after seeing Jiang Ciyou's mood stabilize a little. Jiang Ciyou sat in the cafe, quietly thinking about Lin Yue's words. She knew that she was now standing at a crossroads in her life and had to make a careful choice. She recalled every bit of her time with Lu Jingchen, and those beautiful memories softened her heart; but she also remembered the complicated things she had investigated and her husband's threats, and her heart was filled with worries.

Jiang Ciyou decided to start with Lu Jingchen's family as Lin Yue said. She began to ask around about Lu Jingchen's family and contacted some friends she had met in the business circle before, hoping to get some clues from them. However, the process was not smooth. Lu Jingchen's family seemed to be very low-key, and there was very little information about them.

A few days passed, and Jiang Ciyou had almost nothing to show for it. She felt very frustrated. Just then, she received a strange call. The person on the other end of the phone claimed to be Lu Jingchen's friend, saying that he had something to tell her about Lu Jingchen and asked her to meet him in an abandoned factory.

Jiang Ciyou had some doubts in her heart, but she decided to go to the appointment. She felt that this might be an opportunity to find out Lu Jingchen's identity, although she knew that doing so might be dangerous. She carefully came to the agreed place and found that there was no one there. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard footsteps.

She turned around nervously and saw several strange men walking towards her. There was a sense of hostility in the eyes of these men. Jiang Ciyou secretly said in her heart that it was not good, and she realized that she might have fallen into a trap.

"Who are you? Why did you ask me to come here?" Jiang Ciyou asked, pretending to be calm.

One of the men sneered: "You don't need to know who we are. You just need to know that you should not continue to investigate Lu Jingchen's affairs. This is a warning to you. If there is a next time, it will not be so simple."

Jiang Ciyou was filled with anger: "Why are you threatening me? I have the right to know the truth."

The men ignored her and turned away. Jiang Ciyou stood there, trembling slightly, not knowing what to do. She realized that the secret behind Lu Jingchen was more complicated than she had imagined, and she had been drawn into a dangerous vortex.

After returning home, Jiang Ciyou lay on the bed, unable to calm down for a long time. She began to doubt whether her decision was correct and whether she should continue the investigation. She remembered Lin Yue's advice, maybe she should put these things aside for the time being and protect herself first.

However, deep down in Jiang Ciyou's heart, she felt unwilling to give up. She didn't want to give up. She wanted to find out Lu Jingchen's true identity and whether their relationship could stand the test. She spent sleepless nights in contradiction and struggle, not knowing where to go.

As the days passed, Jiang Ciyou's mental state became worse and worse. She made frequent mistakes at work and her life became a mess. Lu Jingchen noticed her abnormality and asked her what happened many times, but Jiang Ciyou did not tell him the truth. She did not know how to face Lu Jingchen, and did not know how to balance her feelings for him and her inner doubts.

By chance, Jiang Ciyou met a person who had done business with Lu Jingchen. She plucked up the courage to ask this person about Lu Jingchen. This person told her that Lu Jingchen had always had a good reputation in the business circle and was a very capable and honest person. However, few people knew about his family background and some of his private life.

This news comforted Jiang Ciyou a little, and she began to re-examine her views on Lu Jingchen. Maybe he was not as complicated as she thought, and maybe there was no hidden secret behind his identity. However, the doubts in her heart were still not completely eliminated, and she needed more evidence to prove her idea.

Jiang Ciyou decided to find Lin Yue again and discuss with her what to do next. Lin Yue felt very distressed when she saw Jiang Ciyou's haggard face. She told Jiang Ciyou that she would support her no matter what decision she made.

"Ciyou, I don't think you can go on like this. You can either choose to believe Lu Jingchen and face the future difficulties with him, or completely let go of this relationship and start your life again. Your indecision will only make you more miserable." Lin Yue said earnestly.

Jiang Ciyou lowered her head silently. She knew that Lin Yue was right. However, it was not an easy decision to make. She thought of the good times she had spent with Lu Jingchen, and his tenderness and consideration for her, and her heart was filled with reluctance.

"Yueyue, I really want to believe him, but I'm afraid of being hurt. What should I do?" Jiang Ciyou raised his head, his eyes full of helplessness.

Lin Yue hugged Jiang Ciyou gently: "Ciyou, I understand how you feel. Love is an adventure, and no one can guarantee that they will not be hurt. However, you cannot give up the right to pursue happiness because you are afraid of getting hurt. You must trust your intuition and believe in Lu Jingchen's feelings for you. If you think he is worth your risk, then take this step bravely."

Jiang Ciyou leaned in Lin Yue's arms, tears silently flowing down. She knew that it was time for her to make a decision. She couldn't escape like this any longer, she had to face her feelings and future bravely.

In the following days, Jiang Ciyou began to observe Lu Jingchen's every move more carefully. She found that Lu Jingchen's care and love for her did not change because of her attitude. He still did a lot of things for her silently and lent a helping hand without hesitation when she encountered difficulties.

These details gradually gave Jiang Ciyou an answer. She began to slowly let go of her doubts and tried to accept Lu Jingchen again. She knew that the road ahead was still long and they might encounter more difficulties and challenges, but she was willing to face them with Lu Jingchen and find their happiness together.

After a period of thinking and struggling, Jiang Ciyou finally made a decision. She decided to believe in Lu Jingchen and the feelings between them. She knew that this decision might change her life, but she was willing to try bravely for love. When she told Lu Jingchen about this decision, Lu Jingchen hugged her tightly, with tears of excitement and happiness in his eyes.

Since then, Jiang Ciyou and Lu Jingchen's relationship has become stronger. They face the difficulties and challenges in life together and work together to pursue their own happiness. Although the road ahead is still full of unknowns, they believe that as long as they love each other and support each other, they will be able to create a better future. Jiang Ciyou also understands that love requires courage and trust. Only by taking that step bravely can you reap true happiness.
