Chapter 1214 He Loves You Very Much
Everyone sat together and had dinner in a cordial and harmonious atmosphere.
Alice and Zhang Pei sat next to each other. Zhang Pei felt a little uncomfortable facing her at first, but after chatting for a few words, she found that Alice was a reasonable and considerate woman. She knew that Zhang Pei was in Moscow. Before coming, she and her current husband selected a gift for her, a brooch, which was not expensive, but the thought was very precious. The two also learned a few common Chinese expressions.
For example, when Zhang Pei handed her a napkin, she blurted out "thank you" in Chinese, which immediately brought them closer.
Two women of similar age, originally from different parts of the world, with different nationalities, cultures, and statuses, can actually sit together and talk and laugh. This life situation is truly magical.
Alice talked to Zhang Pei about her and Peter's stories. "I have known Peter since I was fifteen years old. To be honest, on our wedding day, when he and I stood in the church facing the priest, I thought to myself, I would actually choose to marry such a person!"
Hearing her words, everyone at the table burst into laughter, even the only outsider, Shen Mozhen, couldn't help laughing.
"What kind of person is Dad?" Lina asked curiously.
"Old-fashioned, boring, and without any romance."
Zhang Pei applied these three words to Peter in his mind, but he felt that he was not like Peter at all.
...
...
How is he old-fashioned? When they first met, he was indeed a bit old-fashioned and serious, but later when they got to know each other better, Peter became very talkative. Zhang Pei still remembers that when they were visiting the capital together, Peter always took the initiative to find topics to chat with her, so as not to let the atmosphere become dull.
At that time, her English was not good enough, so Peter spoke slowly every time he spoke, accommodating her and taking care of her in every way. Even when Liu Chengyu appeared, he stood firmly on her side.
As for the mood...
Zhang Pei was lost in thought. Peter was so busy in the United States, but he insisted on calling her at 6 o'clock every morning, one hour before work. He had to leave at 7 o'clock. It was 8 o'clock in the evening, and work was almost over, so they chatted for a while. When Jiang Chengfeng and Li Xiaoru, Yu Zhan and Liu? were separated in China and the United States, the two young men could not do what Peter did. For modern young people, it is too difficult to insist on getting up at 6 o'clock every day.
But Peter had the perseverance to stick with it. Not only that, he had a long-term partnership with a flower shop in the capital. During the time when he was away from China, the flower shop would send a bouquet of roses to Zhang Pei's home every four days.
The property management of the large flat that Zhang Pei bought is very good. When she is busy and not at home, the property management will collect flowers for her and put them in the mail room downstairs. When other owners come in and out, they can often see a large bunch of bright roses, and the colors are different each time.
The curious owner asked the property management company which household these flowers belonged to and who sent them. Everyone thought that they must be from a girl who was waiting to be married, and she must be very beautiful.
As a result, the property management said that the flowers were given to Ms. Zhang, the owner of the top floor of Building X.
All the owners were surprised. Zhang Pei was busy with work and went out early and came back late every day, but the residents here knew her. Her daughter was the famous Liu? Ah! Zhang Pei was also a celebrity.
For example, they can brag outside that we live in the same community as Liu?’s mother.
The owner asked the security guard in surprise, "Isn't she single?"
"Yes, only singles have suitors. After getting married, which husband can still be so diligent in sending flowers to his wife?"
Everyone became even more curious, "Who is her suitor?"
"I don't know about that."
Look at these roses with different patterns. They are not cheap. The buyer must be a person of status.
"I remember Zhang Pei's husband was sentenced to prison?"
"It seems he has mental problems and has been admitted to a mental hospital."
"Why mention him? Zhang Pei and that guy divorced a long time ago."
"So, Zhang Pei is really capable. Even though she is divorced and so old, she still has such a romantic suitor."
