Chapter 42 Foreign Friends

Mu Chen and Lin Chuchu waited in place for a while before the surrounding crowd dispersed.

Mother Mu appeared out of nowhere, carrying meat, eggs, and some vegetables.

"You guys are shopping at the mall too? Are you here to buy groceries? Perfect, I can't carry all that, I was thinking of coming out again after I got home."

Mu Chen took the things, listening to his mother and wife chatting and laughing.

The two of them, without prior arrangement, started talking about what had just happened.

“I know that girl. She works at my factory. She’s a very capable girl. After this incident, I’m afraid she’ll have a hard time finding a partner in the near future.”

Mu's mother felt sorry for the girl, that she had ended up with such a boyfriend.

"Mom, I think it's good to see the other person's true colors before marriage. It's better than marrying into the family and having to deal with them for the rest of your life."

"Yes, yes, that makes sense. When I get back, I'll talk to my old friends and see if there are any suitable men they can introduce to her."

As people get older, they like to play matchmaker for young people, and it's no surprise that Mu's mother does.

After going downstairs, Mother Mu bought a lot more things before the three of them went home.

The next day at school, Mu Chen escorted Lin Chuchu to school.

During class, a teacher led two foreign friends in.

"Please be quiet, everyone. These two are students who have come to our school for an exchange program. Please help them out."

They are English majors and have the easiest time interacting with foreigners.

Everyone immediately applauded to show their welcome.

Their English proficiency varied greatly, some good and some bad, making this a rare and valuable opportunity to learn English.

The teacher spoke to the two foreign students in English.

"Both of you, where would you like to sit? You can choose for yourselves."

The two foreigners scanned the classroom, and one of them walked up to Lin Chuchu. "Hello, nice to meet you. My name is John. May I sit next to you?"

Lin Chuchu was surprised to be noticed. She stood up, shook hands with the other person, and spoke in fluent English.

"Hello, my name is Lin Chuchu, it's nice to meet you."

Lin Chuchu smiled confidently, without any hint of inferiority.

She knew how difficult it was for China on the international stage during that era; it was like walking on thin ice.

At this time, people were both afraid of and cautious towards foreigners.

However, the more humble you are, the more others will look down on you.

Lin Chuchu absolutely cannot bring shame to the country.

Lin Chuchu's fluent English and natural demeanor immediately won John's favor.

Another foreign friend had a less successful experience. The classmate he chose had limited English skills and spoke haltingly, making communication difficult.

The teacher wiped the sweat from his face and looked at the old professor with pleading eyes.

The old professor gave Lin Chuchu a wink, signaling her to make contact with the two foreign friends.

Fortunately, the group was in similar positions, and Lin Chuchu gradually joined their conversation.

The group quickly struck up a conversation and began chatting and laughing.

With Lin Chuchu's help, the classmate's tension dissipated and he became more relaxed.
