The person on the other end of the phone immediately interrupted her: "I am someone who cares about you. I cannot reveal more information, but please be careful."

The call was hung up, leaving a silence. Qin Jingru couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, and she realized that her career might face greater challenges.

The next day, Qin Jingru told Lou Zhenhua and Yu Li about the anonymous call. The three of them sat in the office and discussed how to deal with it next.

Lou Zhenhua frowned and said, "This situation is a bit tricky. We have to deal with it carefully. I will contact some security companies to strengthen our security measures."

Yu Li suggested: "We should also pay close attention to our business environment to see if there are any abnormal situations."

Qin Jingru nodded in agreement: "Okay, we must remain vigilant and not let any accidents happen."

After discussing it, they each took action. Lou Zhenhua contacted the security company and arranged for more security personnel to patrol and monitor; Yu Li began to investigate the dynamics inside and outside the company, paying attention to whether there were any suspicious people or behaviors.

After a while, although they did not receive similar anonymous calls, they still remained highly vigilant. Qin Jingru knew that in order to protect her career, she must always be vigilant and not take it lightly.

The relationship between Lou Zhenhua and Yu Li became the focus of some people's discussion. Although they did not do anything beyond the relationship of colleagues, some people spread rumors about their improper relationship behind their backs.

These rumors began to spread within the company. Whether out of jealousy or ulterior motives, Lou Zhenhua and Yu Li were dragged into a whirlpool of public opinion that they were unwilling to participate in.

One day, Lou Zhenhua was called aside by a colleague in the company. The colleague said seriously, "Zhenhua, you'd better be careful. There are some rumors about you and Yu Li circulating in the company now."

A hint of displeasure flashed across Lou Zhenhua's face, but he suppressed his emotion and asked, "What's the rumor?"

The colleague shook his head, with a hint of regret in his tone: "You know, once this kind of thing is magnified, it will be difficult to deal with. I just remind you to be careful and not let this kind of rumor affect your and Yu Li's work."

Lou Zhenhua nodded to show that he understood. He realized that such rumors would not only damage his and Yu Li's reputation, but also have an adverse impact on the company's operations.

Yu Li also heard about these rumors and was very dissatisfied. At a company meeting, she stood up and said bluntly to everyone: "The relationship between Mr. Lou and I is just a work relationship, there is no improper relationship. I hope everyone can base it on facts and not spread unfounded rumors at will."

Lou Zhenhua was deeply moved when he heard Yu Li's statement. He knew that Yu Li was an upright and frank person who would not easily give up her insistence. He decided to deal with this storm of public opinion together with Yu Li to maintain their innocence and the image of the company.

In the days that followed, the two of them worked more closely together, doing their best to remain professional and rigorous. They proved their worth and ability with their actions, and gradually, those rumors were forgotten.

Qin Jingru, a lively and cheerful girl, seemed to suddenly become a little depressed on that ordinary afternoon. Her expression became a little gloomy, her brows slightly wrinkled, and she no longer had the bright smile she used to have.

Lou Zhenhua noticed her change, walked over to her side, and asked with concern: "Jingru, what's wrong? Is there something bothering you?"

Qin Jingru raised her head, with a hint of worry in her eyes: "Zhenhua, I received an anonymous call claiming that there was an improper relationship between you and me. I feel very troubled."

Lou Zhenhua frowned when he heard this. He didn't expect things to develop to this point. He knew that rumors in the company were often unreliable, but this anonymous call did make him angry and helpless.

"Don't worry, Jingru, these are all nonsense." Lou Zhenhua consoled her, "Our relationship is just a work cooperation, there is no improper behavior. This anonymous call is likely a prank by someone with ulterior motives."

Qin Jingru calmed down a little after hearing what Lou Zhenhua said, but she still couldn't get rid of the doubts in her heart. She said softly: "I know, but once these rumors spread, it will affect our reputation and work. I feel wronged."

Lou Zhenhua listened silently. He could understand Qin Jingru's feelings. In such a working environment, being slandered was a very uncomfortable thing. He decided to take action and find out the facts as soon as possible to prevent the rumor from affecting the normal operation of the company.

"Don't be sad, Jingru, I will solve this matter with you." Lou Zhenhua said firmly, "We will find the person behind this and make them pay the price they deserve."

Qin Jingru listened to Lou Zhenhua's words, and a trace of gratitude flashed in her eyes. She knew how lucky it was to have a colleague like Lou Zhenhua standing by her side at this critical moment. She cheered up again and was determined to face all difficulties with strength.

Lou Zhenhua walked out of the office door, and Qin Jingru followed him silently. She decided to witness with her own eyes how Lou Zhenhua dealt with this storm.

The sun shines through the windows of the high-rise buildings, casting mottled shadows. Pedestrians come and go on the road, as if they have nothing to do with what is happening here. Lou Zhenhua smiles, but his heart is turbulent. He knows that to completely resolve this storm, strong evidence and a clear attitude are needed.

"Jingru, please go back to the office first." Lou Zhenhua said to Qin Jingru, "I will take care of this matter."

Qin Jingru shook her head and said firmly: "I want to face this with you."

Lou Zhenhua looked at her determined eyes, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He knew that Qin Jingru was not someone who liked to surrender, and she was willing to stand up and face this challenge with him, which made him feel extremely relieved.

The two walked through the bustling lobby of the building and came to the parking lot. Lou Zhenhua opened the car door and Qin Jingru sat silently in the passenger seat. There was no extra words between the two, but they were full of tacit understanding.

The car slowly drove out of the parking lot and drove along the familiar street. The sunlight shone through the car window and sprinkled on them, as if injecting them with a little courage and strength.

"Mr. Lou, where are we going?" Qin Jingru asked, breaking the silence.
