Chapter 434: Love at First Sight
Zhang Pei had no experience dealing with foreigners for the first time. She thought they were just concerned about her daughter, because her daughter was indeed pitiful. She replied, "I don't know whether he is busy at work or not. We have already separated."
Peter understood, "Oh, are you planning to get a divorce?"
"Yes, I am going through a divorce."
Zhang Pei is not like some people who find it difficult to talk about divorce and are particularly shy about it, fearing that others will know about it. In fact, everyone around her knows that she is getting a divorce. She is so busy at work, but her husband has never shown up. The old workers who work with her can no longer stand it. When she said she was going to divorce, everyone agreed with her and was happier than she was. Yu Zhan also supported her divorce. Her husband drove drunk, causing his wife and daughter to suffer, but he himself was irresponsible and unworthy of being a husband and a father.
When Peter heard the word "divorce" translated by Yu Zhan, a warm smile immediately appeared on his face. He looked at Zhang Pei and said, "I wish you a happy single life!"
Peter's schedule is very tight and he is a frequent flyer. He will leave Hong Kong on the afternoon flight, so after signing the contract he has to rush to the airport. Huang Shiting personally sees him off.
Before leaving, Peter gave Zhang Pei his business card and said, "If you have any questions, feel free to contact me."
Yu Zhan felt something was wrong. He had all of Peter's contact information, including his phone number, his assistant's phone number, and their office landline number. He had saved them all in his phone book. Besides, Zhang Pei couldn't communicate with Peter even if she got his number. In the end, the call had to be transferred to him. Peter's actions were totally unnecessary.
Seeing Zhang Pei accept the business card, Peter asked her if she had any business cards.
...
...
Zhang Pei shook her head, "I haven't thought about printing my own business cards yet." Their company's business is mainly concentrated on the Internet, so printing business cards is unnecessary.
Peter smiled and said, “I hope I can get your business card when I sign the contract next year.”
After translating to this point, Yu Zhan suddenly understood what Peter meant. He actually had a crush on Zhang Pei and was flirting with her in a subtle way. No wonder he always called Zhang Pei "Ms." instead of "Madam."
Yu Zhan has lived abroad for many years and knows the romantic style of foreigners. They fall in love at first sight at any time. No matter what the occasion is, if they think the time is right, they will approach and chat with them. Zhang Pei is dressed so beautifully today, which is in line with the aesthetic taste of foreigners. It is normal for Peter to fall in love with her at first sight, but this kind of "love at first sight" is only three minutes hot, and often disappears as time goes by.
Therefore, Yu Zhan thought it was nothing. Peter was probably just feeling the novelty of the new thing. He was so busy that he might not even remember who Zhang Pei was in a few days.
The two of them sent Peter to the entrance of Xishilan Company and watched him get into Huang Shiting's car. He opened the window and said to them, "Yu, Pei, bye!"
Yu Zhan and Zhang Pei also waved to him, "Bye~~"
The two waited for Huang Shiting to come back from the airport and had lunch together. At the table, Huang Shiting said that Peter had divorced eight years ago. He and his ex-wife had a daughter, and he had custody of the child. He had been single and lived with his daughter.
"He hasn't found one in such a long time?" Zhang Pei was a little surprised. Peter had a good appearance, was rich and powerful. With such conditions, he could find a girl in her twenties even if he was in his fifties. Moreover, eight years ago, Peter was in his early forties, still in his prime.
"He said that he has never met a woman who suits his taste, and he doesn't want to settle for the same thing as he did in his first marriage. It's better to be single than to be with the wrong person!" Huang Shiting knew Peter very well and told him some of Peter's past.
Like many foreign companies, Cat'Garden is also a family business. One of its two founders is Peter's grandfather. Peter's ex-wife was a well-matched lady chosen by his grandfather for him. The two had very different personalities and could never develop feelings for each other. After his grandfather passed away, he divorced his ex-wife without hesitation.
There was no cheating, no mistress, no cuckoldry, no property disputes or other annoying problems. It was simply because they could no longer live together, so they parted ways amicably. The divorce process was very peaceful, and they are still good friends to this day.
After listening to this, Zhang Pei felt a little envious, because she also hoped that she could divorce Liu Chengyu peacefully, and she didn't want to waste any energy on Liu Chengyu's affairs.
