"She returned to the sewing machine crew."
Ma Cungen and Liu Qin hadn't known each other for long; it was just that the factory had recently opened, and she stood out among the group of recruiters.
Later, when I saw her operating the sewing machine, I felt it was a bit of a waste to have her in this position. Now that there is a better candidate, it is natural to replace her.
Wen Jiaojiao: "..." Oh no, I'm really going to make enemies with the female lead now.
A moment later, the door opened, revealing a woman with exquisite makeup.
Wen Jiaojiao suddenly turned around and saw the woman's face clearly. Her expression stiffened slightly: They were from the same dormitory. Now she's probably going to die even faster.
"You're here too?" Liu Qin was naturally warm and cheerful. After greeting Wen Jiaojiao with a smile, she turned to Ma Cungen and said:
"Boss, you wanted to see me? Have you made new styles again?"
Ma Cungen didn't look at her, and kept his head down calculating the accounts, saying:
"Tell He Chou Chou about your work, and then go back to the sewing machine group."
Wen Jiaojiao glanced at Liu Qin discreetly: "..." Well, she really did look sullen. If it were me, I'd probably be furious too.
Liu Qin glanced at Wen Jiaojiao with an embarrassed expression, then reluctantly nodded and said, "Understood, boss."
Seeing that she had finished speaking and turned to leave, Wen Jiaojiao quickly followed and coaxed her, "Don't be angry, I'm just trying to help you, really."
Liu Qin didn't want to talk to her at all. Anyone whose good job was taken away would definitely not be happy.
Wen Jiaojiao didn't pay attention. When they reached the empty, deserted area, she said softly:
“Even if you lose this job, you can still be the boss's wife of Fengya Garment Factory. Why are you after this position? You should have some ambition.”
Liu Qin paused, her face slightly flushed, and said:
What are you saying?
Although Wen Jiaojiao knew that the separation of the male and female leads might have less impact on Wen Zhaoye, she was also afraid of offending Liu Qin and facing all sorts of troubles.
She kindly advised, "I think you're great, a perfect match for the boss, and this position is a waste of your talents."
So if you're going to do something, do something big. Just become his wife and take over the whole factory and all the people there.
The boss conquers the business world; you conquer the boss. Isn't that incredibly satisfying?
Although she tried to keep her voice down, Ma Cungen, who was following behind, still heard her and chuckled softly.
"This is the first time I've ever listened to advice from someone to do something like this."
Wen Jiaojiao shuddered, nearly scared to death. She stiffly turned around and greeted them:
"Hi, boss."
Liu Qin's face flushed, and she glanced shyly at Ma Cungen, her voice unnatural as she said:
"Boss...
She had noticed Ma Cungen long before the new factory opened, and later learned that it was he who owned the factory.
So on the day of the recruitment, she deliberately wore a bright yellow dress, endured the annoyance of various small insects along the way, and stood in the factory for a long time before finally waiting for him.
No one knows how happy she was when Ma Cungen asked her to be a clothes try-on girl.
Aside from that, they had no other interaction. Today, when she heard that Ma Cungen was looking for her, she put on that bright yellow dress again, only to receive the news that someone had to give up their seat for her.
Her feelings upon seeing Ma Cungen at that moment were complex.
Ma Cungen saw through her emotions and said with a cigarette in his mouth, "Don't overthink it, I have a childhood sweetheart."
Wen Jiaojiao: "..." I forgot, the male and female leads always need a vicious female supporting character who trips them up, and that is his childhood sweetheart.
Upon receiving his veiled rejection, Liu Qin's eyes welled up with tears as she said, "I understand, boss. I'll resign then."
Wen Jiaojiao's gaze silently swept back and forth between the two of them, and she rubbed her chin: "..."
Her departure caused the plot to veer off course beyond what even the author could salvage, but oh well.
It won't stop me from earning my monthly salary of thirty-five yuan at all, and since they are the male and female leads, they will definitely meet and get together in the end.
Ma Cungen did not try to stop him:
"Alright, I'll give you an extra month's salary as compensation."
"No."
Liu Qin was pampered by her parents and loved by her brothers at home; otherwise, she wouldn't have developed such a warm and generous personality.
Her family was quite wealthy and didn't lack the money at all. After refusing, she turned and left gracefully.
Ma Cungen suddenly began to look at her with a different eye, noticing her tendency to regard money as dirt.
He watched her carefree figure as she walked away, and as if drawn by something, he said, "Why don't you two team up?"
Liu Qin paused, turned around, and said incredulously, "Me?"
Ma Cungen nodded, turned and left: "..." Strange, it seems like it suddenly got out of control.
Wen Jiaojiao covered her mouth and lowered her voice, saying, "See? The boss is starting to soften. This is a sign that he's falling in love with you."
Liu Qin's face flushed again, and she hesitated before saying:
"But he's already engaged, I can't be the bad guy, that girl will be heartbroken."
Wen Jiaojiao remembered that the villainous female supporting character in the book was a rich heiress and Ma Cungen's childhood sweetheart. She was just a bit willful, but had no other flaws.
So, if Ma Cungen hadn't taken Liu Qin out for a social event and had a drunken encounter that forced him to marry her, she wouldn't have had any involvement, and she wouldn't have discovered the subsequent events.
Wen Jiaojiao sighed:
"Anyway, I didn't take your place. I won't interfere in your affairs. Good luck to you. I just want to be invisible, make enough money, and live a comfortable life for the rest of my days."
Liu Qin also sighed and said:
"Come on, I'll take you back to your dorm. I'll just explain a few things; it's very simple."
After their discussion, Liu Qin left the dormitory, leaving Wen Jiaojiao alone in the empty room. Suddenly, she missed Xu Cuifen.
At the same time, he was also afraid that Xu Cuifen would become ill from worry if she found out about his disappearance, and that she would have a big fight with Wen Zhaoye, pushing all the blame onto him.
