The State Owes Me a Sister

On the second-floor balcony, Chen Jin looked at his father in confusion. "What is it that you need to talk to me about, dad?"

"Uhm…" Chen Gang hesitated for a moment. His expression contorted, as if he were struggling. He wanted to speak, but swallowed it back several times. But since she had pleaded with him, not matter how hard it was for him, he knew he had to speak. "Son, here's the thing, I have a friend of mine asking me for help in finding a job for her daughter…"

Chen Jin nodded his head and said, "No problem dad, my company is doing some mass recruiting right now, and there are many positions available for fresh graduates as well. Ask your friend's daughter to submit her resume and go for the interview session. If she performs well she'll get the job for sure." Chen Jin received similar requests quite often as of late. Some of them were relatives and some were schoolmates who he hadn't spoken to for a very long time.
