Chapter 1038: Your Daughter Has Taken a Fancy to Him!

Liu Chun's father, Liu Chen, is the DeputyFactoryDirector in charge of technology at the food factory.

Back then, Liu Chen competed against Yang Guofeng for the position of Factory Director and lost, and ever since, he has been suppressed by Yang Guofeng at every turn.

Liu Chen had once thought about changing jobs or striking out on his own, but his wife fell seriously ill a few years ago, and in order to pay for her treatment, he borrowed a large sum of money from the factory.

If he were to resign, he would have to pay back the money, and since Liu Chen is unable to repay it, he has no choice but to live under someone else's thumb.

Yang Guofeng also knows that when it comes to the food factory, he can cut anyone, but he cannot cut Liu Chen, this vital artery.

Without this technical expert, the machines would grind to a halt and the factory would be unable to operate, so he still gave Liu Chen some breathing room.

After finishing a bowl of noodles, Liu Chun stood up, ready to pay.

Ma Ran had already taken a step ahead and paid the bill.

"Thank you for treating me to noodles. Once I get my salary, I'll treat you back then!"

"Sure, I have been a bit tight on money lately, so you can treat me to a good meal then." Ma Ran has been following Tang Ye, and through constant exposure, his emotional intelligence has become quite high, so he knows how to talk in a way that girls like.

Ma Ran and Liu Chun walked to the opposite side and stood at the entrance of the residential compound.

"Thank you for coming to see me today. I was feeling quite depressed, but I feel much better now."

"You're too polite. We are friends. Isn't it a matter of course for friends to vent their frustrations to each other?"

"Next time you have any troubles, remember to tell me."

"Sure, don't go back on your word." Liu Chun suddenly asked, "I suddenly feel a bit tired, would it be convenient to go to your place to rest for a while?"

Ma Ran remembered that Tang Ye was inside the house; since he had just arrived today, he would definitely be resting, and if Liu Chun went over, it would disturb Tang Ye.

"It's actually not very convenient today. How about another day!"

Liu Chun looked at Ma Ran with disappointment, "What? Are you hiding a beauty in your golden house?"

Ma Ran laughed in spite of himself, "I'm single, what beauty would I be hiding! My place is too messy; wait until I tidy it up next time, then I'll invite you over as a guest. Besides, I still have some things to handle. I'm about to start a new position, so I need to make some preparations in advance."

Upon hearing that Ma Ran was single, the expression on Liu Chun's face improved significantly, "Alright then, it's a deal. By the way, I will help you ask around for work. Although you already have a new job, you can still try if there are other job opportunities. Your educational background is good, and your image is also very good, so you can look for more options."

Ma Ran thought to himself that Liu Chun was truly enthusiastic, "Alright, then I'll trouble you."

Liu Chun returned home, humming Wang Xinling's "Curved Eyelashes."

Seeing that Liu Chun was in good spirits, her mother asked softly, "Why do you seem to be in such a good mood?"

Liu Chun pulled her mother's arm and said, "I've always been in a good mood!"

No one knows a daughter better than her mother.

Her mother knew that Liu Chun had a good impression of the new guy surnamed Ma at the factory.

When Liu Chun went out just now, she was full of gloom.

After coming back, the clouds had cleared, so she must have met the guy surnamed Ma.

Judging by this situation, the two of them must have had a very pleasant chat.

Mother Liu originally had a good impression of Ma Ran, but now she was a bit more cautious. She sighed and reminded her, "That boy Ma Ran looks very spirited, but he is still too impulsive in his actions. Mom respects you and doesn't want to interfere with your dating, but this kind of boy is not very mature; if you live your life with him, it will be especially hard."

Seeing that her mother had seen through her thoughts, Liu Chun's face turned red, and she defended herself, "Mom, don't talk nonsense. Ma Ran and I are just friends. I asked Ma Ran. He didn't resign for no reason; he had already found another job, which is why he did that."

Her mother frowned and said, "Chunchun, you haven't known Ma Ran for long, and I think you should still consider it carefully. He is from out of town. I support you in dating freely, but you should also learn more about him before dating; wait until you know his background before making a decision."

Considering that her mother's health was not very good, Liu Chun held her hand and said with a smile, "Ma Ran and I are really just ordinary friends. I admire his courage and felt that he must have been very upset after resigning, so I gave him a little encouragement, that's all."

Her mother looked at Liu Chun's bright eyes, shook her head, and sighed.

Liu Chun locked herself in her room.

Liu Chen returned home, his face full of exhaustion.

"Why are you so late today?"

"The machine broke down again, and it took a long time to fix."

"The old machine breaks down all day long, why don't you replace it with a new one?" Mother Liu complained.

A cold look appeared in Liu Chen's eyes, "This bunch of people, they stuff all the money into their own pockets; how could they use the money for public affairs?"

Mother Liu said softly, "I heard some news that the bread made by the food factory has a lot of additives and will cause harm to the human body. Is this true?"

Liu Chen sighed helplessly, "I am not responsible for the production line that supplies the students' side meals. I don't have any hard evidence. Our factory used to be so profitable, but it ended up being ruined by these people; it really is heartbreaking. Today, a young man directly exposed Yang Guofeng's ugly behavior, which was really satisfying."

Mother Liu sighed, "The young man's name is Ma Ran, and your daughter has taken a fancy to him."

Liu Chen was stunned for a moment, "I have had contact with Ma Ran; this young man has a high educational background. But he is an outsider. His speech and character are quite good, and it is said that he has a relative who is an official in the city."

Mother Liu said in surprise, "You appreciate him too?"

Liu Chen nodded slightly, "Because he said what I wanted to say. He is braver than I am."

At this moment, Liu Chun pushed open the door and saw her father had returned; her eyes filled with surprise, and she went over to hug his arm.

"Dad, you're back. There's something I want to trouble you with."

Liu Chen is usually very serious, but he is very gentle with his daughter.

"Go ahead, what is it!"

"I have a friend who has a good educational background and an outstanding character and image. He wants to find a better job recently. You know a lot of people, could you help me ask around?"

Liu Chen exchanged a glance with his wife, then smiled and said, "If I'm not mistaken, that friend of yours should be the Xiao Ma who was just persuaded to resign by Yang Guofeng today, right?"

Liu Chun nodded decisively, "He wasn't persuaded to resign; he resigned voluntarily."

Liu Chen sighed slightly, "I'll think of a way. Xiao Ma is a young man with a strong sense of justice, but he is just too impulsive. Yang Guofeng has extensive connections in Yechuan County. If he doesn't want Xiao Ma to stay in Yechuan County, he just needs to say a word to the enterprises in the county, and Xiao Ma will definitely have no place to stay."

Liu Chun said in surprise, "Is it that serious?"

Liu Chen sighed, "You underestimate Yang Guofeng's despicable and shameless nature. I will try my best to help Ma Ran ask around, and if there is an opportunity, I will definitely look out for him."

"Dad, Ma Ran is such an upright person, you must help him."

Liu Chun sighed, her fingers gripping the sofa cover tightly, clearly worried for Ma Ran.

"I know. I will help if I can." Liu Chen noticed that his daughter had a good impression of Ma Ran.

However, if Ma Ran were his son-in-law, he would certainly help.

Appreciation is one thing, but if they were just ordinary friends, Liu Chen would have no need to go against Yang Guofeng!
