Chapter 722: Old and Broken House
Liu Man is learning English, and Zhang Pei is also learning it, and she has been learning it for a long time. After meeting Peter last year, she decided to pick up the foreign language she had thrown away. Since they will be agents of foreign companies in the future, they are equivalent to half of a foreign company. English is the main language of communication. In addition to verbal communication, the documents and materials at the headquarters must be in English. If you can't even understand these, how can you run a company? Zhang Pei learns faster than Liu Man and has a better comprehension ability than Liu Man. She was able to enter a junior college and her English grades were also acceptable. Knowledge that was once familiar can always be recalled after a few times.
Just from the language, Peter could feel the sincerity of Liu Lan and her daughter.
He shook hands with Yu Zhan and Huang Shiting respectively, and the communication between the men became much more natural and fluent. While talking, Huang Shiting expertly helped Peter take the suitcase.
Yu Zhan and Zhang Pei drove over in their own cars. Zhang Pei's SUV had a larger space, which was convenient for Peter's large suitcase. After Huang Shiting put Peter's suitcase in, he originally wanted to invite Peter to take Yu Zhan's car. Unexpectedly, Peter opened the door of the SUV and sat in the passenger seat.
The co-pilot seat was originally Liu Lan's. Liu Lan was stunned and looked at Yu Zhan with a puzzled look as if asking him, are all foreigners so casual?
Yu Zhan was also surprised. Just like in China, when receiving guests, there are rules for the seats in the car. The boss cannot be the co-pilot. The standard seat should be directly behind the driver's seat. As the president, Peter must have a full-time driver and bodyguards in New Zealand. It is impossible for him not to understand these rules. Why would he take the initiative to be the co-pilot?
Yu Zhan looked at Huang Shiting again, and Huang Shiting quietly spread his hands, "I'm just a hen too, maybe he wants to see the scenery of the mainland, sitting in the front will give him a wider view." This reason sounds reasonable and can be explained.
In this way, Liu Lan could only get into Yu Zhan's car with Huang Shiting. Peter sat in the passenger seat. Who would have the courage to sit behind him?
Zhang Pei was alone in the car with Peter. She didn't think much about it. She asked Peter to fasten his seat belt in English and started the car. Zhang Pei's car was in front and Yu Zhan's car was behind, driving out of the airport parking lot.

...
Zhang Pei has had her new car for so long that her driving skills have improved greatly. Although she is not as good as an experienced driver, at least she drives very steadily. Her attention is always on driving and the vehicles in front and behind. Her current status is equivalent to that of a driver, and ensuring her boss's safety is her top priority.
Peter did not speak either. The car was quite quiet. The only sound he could hear was the humming sound of the heater. The heater carried the scent of Peter's perfume and blew it into Zhang Pei's nose.
“This is my first time in mainland China.”
Peter suddenly spoke up, and Zhang Pei didn't respond immediately. He said it again, "This is my first time in mainland China."
Zhang Pei immediately replied, "How do you feel about the mainland?"
"It's much better than I thought. No wonder my friends say China is developing very well now," Peter paused as he looked at the buildings outside the window. "Compared with your capital, the whole of New Zealand is like a big farm."
Zhang Pei laughed. She didn't expect Peter, who looked serious, to be able to joke. Peter also slowed down his speech to accommodate her English level. "Although I have never been to New Zealand, I have seen documentaries about your country on TV. Every place is beautiful, and the scenery is like a postcard." Zhang Pei organized her words as best as possible, praising Peter's motherland and flattering Peter.
Sure enough, Peter's smile got even bigger. "I'll invite you to visit New Zealand if there's a chance. My home is in Auckland."
"Thank you so much," Zhang Pei thought Peter was just being polite, so she also showed her happiness appropriately.
Peter also took the initiative to ask about some of the scenery and buildings he saw along the way. If they were landmarks, Zhang Pei would give him a brief introduction.
