At this moment, Rong Yu's phone vibrated. It was a message from Tong Luoluo: "Something happened recently. I may not be able to go to work for a while. Please ask for leave from my boss for me."

Rong Yu looked at the phone screen, frowned, and replied: "Lolo, are you okay? Do you need help?"

After waiting for a while, Tong Luoluo replied: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern. It's just that there is something at home that needs to be dealt with."

Rong Yu looked at the message with mixed feelings. He didn't know what happened to Tong Luoluo's family, but he could feel that she was in a very low mood. He thought about it and decided to call Tong Luoluo.

"Hello, Lolo, it's me, Rong Yu." Rong Yu said after the call was connected.

"Oh, Rong Yu, what's the matter?" Tong Luoluo's voice sounded a little tired.

"I just want to ask you, what happened at home? If you need help, just tell me." Rong Yu said sincerely.

Tong Luoluo was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "Actually it was my dad. He came to see me again. He has no money to eat now, but I can't just ignore him."

After Rong Yu heard this, he understood about 70% of the situation. He knew that Tong Luoluo's family situation was complicated, but she rarely mentioned it. When he heard her take the initiative to talk about it, he could also feel her helplessness and fatigue.

"Lolo, if you need money, I can lend you some first." Rong Yu said.

"No, thank you. I have transferred some money to him, which should be enough for him for a while." Tong Luoluo rejected Rong Yu's kindness.

"Lolo, you know, sometimes accepting help from others is not a sign of weakness." Rong Yu said softly, "We are all friends, and we should help each other."

On the other end of the phone, Tong Luoluo seemed touched by Rong Yu's words. She was silent for a while, then she said softly: "Thank you, Rong Yu. I feel very lucky to have friends like you around me."

Hearing these words, Rong Yu felt a warm feeling in his heart.

"Lolo, do you really not need my help?" Rong Yu was still a little worried.

"Really, no need. I can still handle it now. When I really need help, I will definitely come to you." Tong Luoluo's tone was full of gratitude.

Rong Yu sighed, "Okay, Luo Luo, you should be more careful. If you have any questions later, feel free to contact me."

"Yes, I will. Thank you, Rong Yu."

After hanging up the phone, Rong Yu felt a little heavy.

He knew that Tong Luoluo was a very independent and strong-willed girl who would not easily accept help from others.

But he also knew that sometimes a person's power was limited, and maybe one day she would need their help.

Rong Yu actually wanted to get closer to Tong Luoluo, but he could also feel that Tong Luoluo was deliberately keeping a distance from him. This feeling sometimes made him puzzled!

A few days later, Rong Yu ran into Tong Luoluo who had just returned downstairs of the company. She looked a little haggard, but her eyes were more determined.

"Lolo, you're back!" Rong Yu came over and asked with concern, "How are things going at home?"

"Fortunately, it has been almost dealt with." Tong Luoluo replied with a smile, but the fatigue in his eyes was hard to hide.

Rong Yu looked at her with mixed feelings. He wanted to do something for her, but he didn't know how to start.

"By the way, Rong Yu, thank you for your concern over the past few days." Tong Luoluo broke the silence, "I feel very lucky to have friends like you around me."

Hearing this, Rong Yu's heart was once again filled with warmth. He looked at Tong Luoluo and said affectionately: "Luolu, do you know? I am always by your side. As long as you need me, I will always help you."

Tong Luoluo looked at Rong Yu, with a touch of emotion in her eyes. She said softly: "Thank you, Rong Yu. I know you always care about me, but I really don't need any help now. I will tell you when I need it."

"Okay, Luo Luo. I respect your decision." Rong Yu sighed, "But you must remember that no matter when and where, I will always be by your side to support you and accompany you."

Tong Luoluo smiled slightly after hearing this: "Thank you, Rong Yu. I will remember your words."

Tong Luoluo didn't want to hurt Rong Yu. At least Rong Yu had saved her at the risk of his own life when she was in danger!

In the following days, the interaction between the two was like a thin stream of water, calm but continuous. Rong Yu did not ask too much about Tong Luoluo's family situation, but just stayed by her side silently, providing the support and companionship he could give.

One day after get off work, Rong Yu invited Tong Luoluo to go to the newly opened restaurant to try something new. The atmosphere of the restaurant was very warm, and under the soft lighting, both of them felt much more relaxed.

"Lolo, what do you think of the food here?" Rong Yu asked with a smile.

"Well, it tastes very good." Tong Luoluo nodded, a rare relaxed smile on his face.

The two ate and talked, and the topic gradually shifted from food to life and work. Rong Yu noticed that when Tong Luoluo talked about work, there was a gleam in his eyes, which was a vision for the future and a passion for his career.

"Lolo, you are really talented. I believe you can realize your dream." Rong Yu praised sincerely.

After hearing this, Tong Luoluo's eyes flashed with gratitude: "Thank you, Rong Yu. In fact, I have been working very hard and hope to achieve something in this industry."

"I believe you can do it." Rong Yu encouraged, "No matter what difficulties you encounter, don't give up."

The two people's eyes met in the air, as if they had a tacit understanding and resonance. They both knew that the road ahead was still long, but as long as they moved forward hand in hand, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.

After dinner, Rong Yu sent Tong Luoluo home. In the moonlight, the shadows of the two were very long, as if foreshadowing that their future path would continue forever.

"Lolo, I hope we can become indispensable friends in each other's lives." Rong Yu said to Tong Luoluo affectionately.

Tong Luoluo smiled after hearing this: "We already are."

"I'm talking about the kind of..."

“Stop!”

"I'm talking about the kind where you can talk about anything!" Rong Yu said!

Rong Yu looked at Tong Luoluo, his eyes full of anticipation.

Tong Luoluo was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Rong Yu, we are already very good friends, aren't we? I will tell you everything."

"Yes, Luo Luo. But I think we can go a step further." Rong Yu took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, "Luo Luo, I... I like you, not just as a friend."

Tong Luoluo looked at Rong Yu in shock. She didn't expect him to confess at this time. She was silent for a while, and then she slowly said: "Rong Yu, I... I didn't expect you to say that."

"Lolo, I know this may be surprising to you." Rong Yu continued, "But I really like you, and I want to face all the challenges and difficulties in the future with you."

"Rong Yu, you are very good, really very good." Tong Luoluo took a deep breath, "But I am... I am not ready to enter into a new relationship now. You know about my family situation, I..."

"Lolo, I understand." Rong Yu interrupted her, "I don't need you to give me an immediate answer. I just want you to know my feelings. I don't want to put pressure on you."

Tong Luoluo looked at Rong Yu, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes: "Thank you, Rong Yu. You are really a good person. But I need time to think about it."

"Of course, Lolo. Take your time to think about it. I'll wait for you." Rong Yu said with a smile.

The atmosphere between the two suddenly became a little subtle.

They both knew that this confession might change the relationship between them, but they didn't know exactly how.

Rong Yu didn't know that Rong Xi secretly helped Tong Luoluo solve many troubles, so he never thought that Rong Xi would become his emotional rival!

So Rong Yu still has high expectations for Tong Luoluo!

But that’s all in the past!

When Rong Yu was in a daze, a familiar figure appeared in his eyes!

This person is Mu Qingning!

"Qingning, you haven't come out for a few days!" Rong Yu poured her a glass of wine!

"Hi, Rong Yu, long time no see." Mu Qingning took the wine glass and took a sip. "I have been a little busy recently and haven't been able to relax much."

"Looking at you, are you facing any troubles again?" Rong Yu asked with concern.

Mu Qingning sighed, "Yeah, I encountered some problems at work, and I feel a little overwhelmed."

"What exactly is the problem? Maybe I can give you some advice." Rong Yu said.

Mu Qingning hesitated for a moment, but still chose to be honest, "Actually, there were some problems with a project I was responsible for recently. The progress has not kept up, and there have been some conflicts and frictions among team members."

Rong Yu frowned after hearing this. "This is indeed a difficult problem. However, I believe you can solve it. Do you need my advice?"

"Of course I need help. I need help right now." Mu Qingning said anxiously.

Rong Yu pondered for a moment, then slowly spoke: "In fact, I think what you need to do most now is to stabilize the team's emotions and strengthen communication and collaboration among team members. In addition, you can also consider adjusting the project plan, arranging time and resources reasonably, and ensuring that the project can be completed on time."

Mu Qingning nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. "You are right. I really need to adjust the status of the team and the project plan. Thank you for giving me such good advice."

"You're welcome. We're all friends." Rong Yu said with a smile, "If you have any other questions or need help, feel free to come and find me."

The two chatted for a while, and Mu Qingning's mood gradually improved. She looked at Rong Yu gratefully and said, "Thank you for chatting with me tonight. I feel much better."

"As long as you are willing, I am at work and you can chat with me anytime!" Rong Yu said to her!
