Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Rong Chen noticed something surging in his heart. Her smile was light and pale, but it warmed people's hearts like the sun, just like the feeling of a sunflower.
"Rong Chen, I..." You Tong moved the corners of his lips. He had something to say in his heart, but he didn't know where to start.
Rong Chen suddenly came to his senses, gently pulled out the chair and sat down, "Xiaotong, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Why are you so polite to me?"
You Tong was very touched in her heart, but she rarely asked for help. Even though the person was Rong Chen, whom she knew very well, she still hesitated a little. She remained silent and said inquiringly, "Let's order something first!"
"That's fine." Rong Chen nodded and raised his hand to call the waiter.
"Sir, Miss, what do you need?"
"Two cups of mocha, plus a mousse cake." Rong Chen made a decision on his own. He knew that You Tong didn't like drinking coffee. He remembered that the last time he was in Paris, he just ordered mocha, and now she seems to still like it.
She didn’t finish her meal, so she ordered an extra piece of cake for her.
You Tong said shyly, "You still remember my taste?"
"Unconsciously" Rong Chen said lightly, but only he himself understood the deep meaning.
After a while, the food came, and Rong Chen pushed the mousse cake in front of You Tong, "You eat this first to satisfy your stomach, and we will go to the restaurant to eat after we finish talking."
You Tong was stunned. She didn't expect that he ordered this cake for her, but he had already ordered it, and she couldn't refuse it.
Rong Chen's thoughtfulness made You Tong feel very warm in her heart, and her emotions settled for a moment. She felt that it was easier to speak, so she put down her coffee cup and said cowardly, "Today... uh, I was raped by someone from the public relations department.
The supervisor criticized me and told me not to go to training anymore..."
Rong Chen frowned when he heard this, "Didn't you ask for leave today? When did you come to the company again?!"
"I returned to the company at around three o'clock in the afternoon. Because I was pressed for time, I went directly to the public relations department. Then something happened..." You Tong explained, but he did not talk about Hu Die's personal matters, only a few details.
Then he said that both she and Hu Die were fired.
Rong Chen listened quietly. It was not a big deal and she had nothing wrong. It was really aggrieved to be fired like this, especially for a strong person like her.
He felt sorry for her
At the end of the sentence, You Tong froze for a few seconds, and then asked softly, "Rong Chen, I think... can you help Hu Die and I talk to the head of the public relations department to see if... can... let us
Let's go back..."
Rong Chen sighed softly. She was so cautious with such a small request. It seemed that it was really difficult for her to open her mouth. But what did it mean? It was not a matter at all!
"Xiaotong, don't worry, I will help you handle it!"
"Uh... I'm helping me and Hu Die..." She doesn't care, the main thing is that Hu Die
Rong Chen didn't know the details, so he just thought she didn't want to do anything special, so he agreed, "I know, don't worry, leave it all to me!"
Hearing this, You Tong finally breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly thought of something again, and said after careful consideration, "And the staff of the planning department, tell the supervisor not to make things difficult for her, they are not wrong."
"Okay, don't worry about it. Don't you feel at ease when I do things?!" Rong Chen pretended to be relaxed, but he felt warm in his heart for her kindness.
"Thank you, Rong Chen," You Tong said gratefully
"It's okay"
You Tong finally feels at ease, believing that with Rong Chen's help, this matter can be solved perfectly
The two sat in the cafe for a while, and then Rong Chen proposed to find another restaurant for dinner. You Tong agreed, but said that she would be the one to treat the guests. Rong Chen was a little embarrassed, but in the end he said yes with a smile.
After the meal, You Tong went to pay the bill. Rong Chen smiled slightly and drove her home.
The Ferrari parked slowly downstairs of Hauge Homes. Rong Chen turned to look at You Tong, "Is this here?!"
"Yeah!" You Tong nodded and smiled lightly.
"Shall I send you up?!" he said again
"No need, I can do it myself"
Rong Chen didn't force himself, opened the car door and let her out of the car. The two said goodbye to each other, and then You Tong watched his car leave.
After a while, You Tong left again and took the bus back to Jinling Century's residence. But this time, his mood was not as heavy as before.
In fact, life is not easy for everyone, Hu Die is, and so is she, but life must go on.

The next day, early in the morning, the head of the public relations department called the finance department and said that because of insufficient manpower, he wanted You Tong and Hu Die to continue training. Hu Die was obviously a little surprised, but You Tong said nothing.
At noon, You Tong and several colleagues from the finance department went to the employee restaurant for dinner, and Rong Chen also went with them.
Rong Chen said he wanted to treat a guest. Liu Fang, Gao Wenya and Chu Kuo immediately went to order food. Hu Die seemed silent than usual, so she moved a little slower. When she turned around and left her seat, she suddenly heard Rong Chen talking to her.
You Tong said, "Eat more. The matter yesterday was resolved, so don't worry about it anymore!"
You Tong held the chopsticks, looked up at Rong Chen, and nodded gratefully, "Well, I understand, I really want to thank the director this time."
"Thank you. I am also an employee of my own department. This is my responsibility!" Rong Chen said half-jokingly.
You Tong smiled, but he didn't know how beautiful his smile was in Rong Chen's eyes.
After lunch, everyone returned to the office together. You Tong went to the tea room to pour water as usual. Hu Die suddenly walked in and whispered to her, "You Tong, thank you, I owe you once."
You Tong was startled, then pretended to be calm and asked, "What did you say?!"
Hu Die raised her lips and smiled, "I will repay you..." After a pause, he looked up and down her body, her red lips slightly raised, "How about I help you put on makeup on the day of the celebration?!"
