Everyone sat together for dinner, and the atmosphere was harmonious and harmonious.

Alice sat next to Zhang Pei. At first, Zhang Pei was a little uncomfortable, but after a few conversations, she found that Alice was a reasonable and understanding woman. She knew that Zhang Pei was in Moscow. Before she came, she and her current husband chose a meeting gift, which was a brooch, which was not very expensive, but this intention was very valuable. The two also learned a few common Chinese terms.

For example, when Zhang Pei helped her hand over the napkin, she blurted out the Chinese word "Thank you" and suddenly brought each other closer.

Two women of the same age, originally separated from each other, with different nationalities, cultural environments, and statuses, can actually sit together, speak and laugh, and their life situation is magical.

Alice talked to Zhang Pei a lot about her and Peter's stories, "I knew Peter when I was fifteen years old. To be honest, on the day we got married, when I stood in the church with him and faced the priest, what I thought to myself was that I would actually choose to marry such a person!"

Hearing her words, everyone on the dining table laughed, and even the only outsider Shen Mozhen couldn't help laughing.

"What kind of person is Dad?" Lina asked curiously.

“Old-hand, boring, no mood.”

Zhang Pei put these three words into peter in his heart, but felt that they were not as good as peter.

How come he is old-fashioned? When he first met, he was a bit old-fashioned and serious, but when he got to know each other later, Peter became very talkative. Zhang Pei still remembered that during the days they visited the capital together, Peter was always looking for topics to chat with her, so that the atmosphere would not be disheartening.

Her English was not good enough at that time. Peter said every word, slowed down his speech, accommodated her, and took care of her everywhere. Even when Liu Chengyu appeared, he stood firmly on her side.

As for the mood...

Zhang Pei was a little tranced. Peter was so busy in the United States. He insisted on calling her at 6 o'clock every morning. One hour before work, he was about to set off at 7 o'clock. It happened that Zhang Pei was 8 o'clock in the evening, and the work was almost over, so the two chatted for a while. When Jiang Chengfeng, Li Xiaoru, Yu Zhan and Liu Lan were separated from China and the United States, both young men could not do this. For modern young people, it was too difficult to keep getting up at 6 o'clock every day.

But Peter just had the perseverance to persevere. Not only that, he worked with a flower shop in the capital for a long time. During his absence in China, the flower shop would send a bouquet of roses to Zhang Pei's house every four days.

The property of the large flat apartment that Zhang Pei bought is very good. When she was too busy at home, the property helps her collect flowers and put them in the mailroom downstairs. When other owners enter and exit, they often see a large handful of bright roses, and the colors are different every time.

The curious owner asked the property which family's flower was from? Who gave it to him? Everyone thought that 80% of them were the daughters of the house who was waiting for him, and they must be very beautiful.

As a result, the property said that the flowers were given to Ms. Zhang, the top-floor owner 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 that her daughter was the famous Liu Lan! Even Zhang Pei was a celebrity.

For example, they can brag outside that we live in the same community with Liu Lan’s mother.

The owner asked the property in surprise, "Isn't she single?"

"Yes, only single people have suitors. After getting married, which husband can still work so hard to deliver flowers to his wife?"

Everyone was even more curious, "Who is her suitor?"

"I don't know this."

Look at these roses with different patterns, they are not cheap, and the other party must be a person with status.

"I remember Zhang Pei's husband was sentenced to jail?"

"It seems like there is something wrong with my mental illness and I'm in a mental hospital."

"Why are you talking about him? Zhang Pei and that man have divorced long ago."

"So, Zhang Pei is capable. He is divorced, is so old and has such a romantic suitor."

There are many divorced/widowed rich women in the community, some of whom are not as old as Zhang Pei, but they cannot meet good men.

Once when Zhang Pei came home, he met a rich woman of the same age. The other party asked her a few gossips about her boyfriend. She smiled and said that the other party was not Chinese and did not mind her previous marriage history.

Peter bought Lina a new mobile phone in the United States as a gift, and actually brought a gift to Zhang Pei, a bracelet he saw in the window of an antique shop in Los Angeles. He was attracted at first sight.

Because it has an oriental beauty, the cloisonné chain body is decorated with a white pearl in the middle. It is not big, but very round. It reminds Peter of the precious cultural relics he saw in the Forbidden City.

The antique shop owner offered $5,000, which was still a fixed price, insisting that this was an old item from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty in China.

Peter ignored this kind of deception and bought it without any hesitation. He didn't believe it was an antique, but he thought that this bracelet was very good at Zhang Pei's temperament.

Now Zhang Pei is wearing this bracelet on his left wrist.

Alice also noticed the necklace, she was close to Peter's taste, and she loved it very much.

"This bracelet was given to you by Peter," she said in a sure tone. Her voice was very low and she didn't want others to hear it anymore.

Zhang Pei nodded, "He bought it when he was on a business trip in the United States."

Alice smiled and took a sip of the red wine in his glass. "He never gave me anything, even a bag of local food, when he was on a business trip."

Zhang Pei was stunned for a moment.

"If I asked, he would say, 'Oh, you've been to that place, you know there's nothing to visit and play there, the food tastes average, you can buy whatever you want online, I'll pay for it, even if not, next time you go by yourself, you'll buy it again'."

Alice spread his hands, "Look, he always makes me speechless, so I always think he is an extremely boring man. He has no other fun except work and does not know romance. Even if we don't have love, we can always have a little interest in life. Now I understand that he is not slow, he just has not met the person he loves. When he faces me, he doesn't want to worry about how to please me, but when he faces you, he can rack his brains and make you happy in different ways. This is the difference. If I hadn't known you, I'm afraid I wouldn't know that he still has such a tender side."

Zhang Pei listened to Alice's story and looked at Peter who was talking to Luke again. She never realized how deep Peter's feelings for her were. She thought it was a common little thing, but everyone around her told her that Peter loved her very much.

Otherwise, no matter how you say it, you will know nothing about it.

Alice raised her wine glass and said, "Let's have a drink. I hope you and Peter will be happy. I hope one day I can attend your wedding."
