Jiang Ciyou locked herself in the room, and the air in the room seemed to become heavy. She clutched her hair tightly with both hands, her brows furrowed, and her heart was like a tangled mess, unable to be cut or sorted out.

The scene of her husband's betrayal was like a sharp blade, piercing her heart again. What she waited for on the wedding night was her husband's ruthless text messages and the cruel reality of eloping abroad with his mistress. That night, she sat alone by the bed in the new house, and the red decorations around her looked so dazzling, as if they were all mocking her stupidity and naivety. Her world collapsed at that moment, and the bridge of trust collapsed, leaving only a desolate and heart-wrenching scars.

And now, the appearance of Lu Jingchen is like a ray of light, illuminating her dark world. Those beautiful memories flicker in her mind like stars. When she was sick, he stayed by her bed all night, cooking warm porridge for her, and the temperature of the porridge seemed to still remain on the tip of her tongue; when she was bullied, he stood up without hesitation and protected her behind him, and his solid back made her feel a sense of security she had never felt before; they strolled on the beach together, listening to the sound of the waves and watching the afterglow of the sunset shining on each other. The warm picture filled her heart with warmth and sweetness.

However, every time she wanted to devote herself to this relationship, the fear in her heart would grab her tightly like a demon. She was afraid that all this was just an illusory dream, and that there was an unknown secret hidden behind Lu Jingchen's identity. Once it was revealed, she would fall into the abyss of no return again. She kept pacing in the room, and every step seemed to step on her tangled heart.

"What should I do?" She asked herself softly, with a hint of helplessness and confusion in her voice. She walked to the window, looked out at the night, and her thoughts drifted back to the past. She used to be so pure and kind, full of beautiful visions of love, but reality dealt her a heavy blow. She didn't want to experience that kind of pain again, and didn't want her heart to be broken again.

She recalled Lu Jingchen's eyes, which were full of affection and tenderness, but also something she couldn't understand. Maybe she was just being overly suspicious, she comforted herself. However, the scattered information she had investigated was like thorns piercing her heart. She knew that she had fallen deeply into this relationship, and it was not easy to withdraw easily.

Jiang Ciyou sat on the bed, hugged her knees with her hands, and buried her head between them. She tried to calm herself down and think carefully about the future. If she chose to trust Lu Jingchen, she might face unknown risks, but she might also gain true happiness; if she chose to leave and return to the husband who had betrayed her, her life might return to a superficial calm, but how could she resolve the pain in her heart?

She was constantly struggling in her heart, sometimes with Lu Jingchen's warm smile and considerate care, and sometimes with her husband's cold betrayal and threatening words. She felt like she was walking on the edge of a cliff, and if she was not careful, she might be crushed to pieces.

Time passed by, and Jiang Ciyou still had no answer in her heart. She knew that this decision would change her life, and she had to be cautious, again and again. However, the emotional balance kept swinging, making it impossible for her to make a clear judgment.

She stood up, walked to the window again, and took a deep breath. The stars in the night sky twinkled faintly, just like her hope at the moment, seemingly within reach, yet so far away. Her eyes revealed a complex mix of determination and confusion. She knew that no matter what choice she made, it would be a road full of thorns.

Jiang Ciyou began to pace around the room again. Her steps were a little messy, reflecting her inner restlessness. Various images kept appearing in her mind, including the happy times with Lu Jingchen and the desperate moments when she was betrayed by her husband. These images appeared alternately in her mind like a revolving lantern, making her mood even more unstable.

She thought of her past dreams, the dreams that were temporarily covered up by love and marriage. She once wanted to achieve something in her career and prove her worth. However, now she is troubled by emotional problems. She doesn't know how her career will be affected if she chooses Lu Jingchen; if she returns to her husband, will she still have the opportunity to pursue her dream.

Jiang Ciyou's heart was full of contradictions and entanglements. She felt that she was about to be overwhelmed by this emotion. She wished that there was someone who could tell her what to do and guide her on the right path. However, she knew that this decision could only be made by herself, and no one else could bear this pain and responsibility for her.

She walked to the desk, picked up a book she had read before, and flipped through it casually. The words in the book could not enter her mind at this moment, and her mind was not on the book at all. Suddenly, a sentence in the book caught her eye: "Life is a journey full of unknowns. We must face every choice bravely, because every choice will shape our future."

This sentence deeply touched Jiang Ciyou, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. Perhaps, she should bravely face her heart and pursue the happiness she really wants. However, the fear still exists, making it difficult for her to take this step easily.

Jiang Ciyou fell into deep thought again, struggling painfully in her heart. She knew that she couldn't keep running away like this, and she had to make a decision. Whether the decision was right or wrong, she had to bravely bear the consequences.

The light in the room was a little dim, and Jiang Ciyou looked lonely and helpless under the light. Her heart was still wandering between love and fear, and she didn't know when she would find the answer that belonged to her.

She thought of Lu Jingchen's smile again. That smile seemed to have a magical power that could dispel the haze in her heart. However, when she thought of the uncertainty of Lu Jingchen's identity, that smile became a little vague. She was constantly struggling in her heart, sometimes with emotional impulses, and sometimes with rational thinking.

Jiang Ciyou unconsciously touched her chest, where her heartbeat was a little rapid, as if telling of her inner uneasiness. She knew that she had fallen into an emotional whirlpool and could not extricate herself. She wanted to grasp the dawn of happiness, but was afraid of being swallowed by the darkness again.

There was a trace of fatigue and helplessness in her eyes. She was exhausted after a long period of inner struggle. However, she knew that if this problem was not solved, she would not be able to live peacefully. She had to find a balance, a way to protect herself while not losing love.

Jiang Ciyou walked back and forth in the room, her steps getting slower and slower, as if she was thinking about something important. Suddenly, she stopped, with a look of determination in her eyes. Perhaps, she should give Lu Jingchen a chance, and also give herself a chance to uncover the secrets hidden in the darkness. If Lu Jingchen really loves her, then they will be able to face the difficulties of the future together; if not, then she can also stop the loss in time and start her life again.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ciyou calmed down a little. She knew that this decision was not easy, but it was the best solution she could think of at the moment. She took a deep breath and prepared to face the next challenge.

She walked to the bed and sat down, with a look of determination in her eyes. No matter what awaited her in the future, she would not escape, but face it bravely. She believed that she would be able to get out of this predicament and find her own happiness.

Jiang Ciyou lay on the bed, closed her eyes, and tried to relax. However, she was still thinking about Lu Jingchen and those complicated things. She knew that tonight would be a sleepless night, but she was ready to welcome tomorrow.

As time passed, Jiang Ciyou's breathing gradually became stable, and she fell into a light sleep. In her dream, she was still struggling with her emotional problems. One moment she saw Lu Jingchen reaching out to her, and the next moment she saw her husband standing in front of her with a mocking smile on his face. She struggled in her dream, trying to get rid of these troubles, but she was powerless.

Suddenly, Jiang Ciyou woke up from her dream, with beads of sweat on her forehead. She sat up, gasping for breath, with a hint of fear in her eyes. She looked around and realized that it was just a dream. However, this dream made her more determined to solve her emotional problems as soon as possible, otherwise she would never be able to get rid of this painful torture.

Jiang Ciyou got out of bed, walked to the window, opened it, and let the fresh air in. She took a deep breath, feeling the coolness of the early morning. She knew that a new day had begun, and she would embark on a new journey to find her own answers.

There was a hint of determination and hope in her eyes. Although she was still a little afraid, she no longer ran away. She believed that she would be able to find her own happiness, no matter how difficult the road was.

Jiang Ciyou simply washed up, changed her clothes, and prepared to go out. She didn't know what would happen today, but she was ready to face everything. She picked up her bag, walked out of the room, and walked towards the unknown future.
