Transmigrated into a Parvenu's Ex-wife in the '90s

“Designer Chen is such a nice man. Sounds like you have everything ready except for a wife! How come you don’t have a girlfriend yet with your qualifications?”

“I spent most of my time learning since I have come to City Nan. And I have been busy with work the last few years. I guess I am kind of a boring person and not the type that girls like.” Chen Fei glanced over at Zhang Huaxiu again.

“No, I think that’s good. Men don’t need to be very articulate. One should look for a man who’s responsible to marry. Since Designer Chen doesn’t have a girlfriend yet, why don’t I set you up with someone?” Shu Yan looked over at Zhang Huaxiu deliberately and her meaning was obvious.

“Boss lady.” Zhang Huaxiu stood up abruptly and said, “I am not done with the clothes over in the backroom yet. I... I am going to get back to work.”

Aiya, she had forgotten that girls back then were still very shy. Shu Yan stuck her tongue out to herself and smiled at Chen Fei. “Xiuxiu is the girl I have in mind for you. What do you think? She’s a local of City Nan. Both of her parents are still working. She has an older brother and her family constituent is very simple. Mainly, Xiuxiu is pretty and hardworking. Good temperament too. She’d make a good wife.”

“I agree that Xiuxiu is great. I am just not sure how she feels.” Chen Fei’s hands, resting over his thighs, balled into fists. His palms were sweaty.

“That’s why you need to work harder on pursuing her. It’s a new society now. You need to be a little more proactive when you meet someone you like. You don’t want to regret later on.” Shu Yan stopped there. She truly felt that Zhang Huaxiu was a good woman and Chen Fei a good man. And both of them were interested in each other. It’d be a shame if they let the opportunity slip by. That being said, she couldn’t be too overly aggressive either. Being a matchmaker wasn’t easy.

After Chen Fei had left and Shu Yan was tidying up the inventory with Zhang Huaxiu, she asked about her opinion.

“I think he is nice,” said Zhang Huaxiu with some shyness.

“Nice” meant “very good”! Shu Yan smiled and said, “I think so too. You can try to get to know him better and give both of you a chance.”

And she stopped right there. They would have to pick up from there.

As the clothes started to come in, Shu Yan, Zhang Huaxiu and Yingying worked together at organizing them.

Yingying was a new salesperson that Shu Yan hired last week. She has yet to find herself a store manager. There had been a few candidates, but Shu Yan wasn’t quite happy with them. A salesperson just needed to have a nice body and be somewhat articulate, but that couldn’t be the only requirements for a store manager. The store manager would need to possess both experience and managerial ability. If she couldn’t find someone who fit the bills, she’d rather just leave the position vacant for the time being.
