"Dear, I know it must have been traumatic but start with the basics. Was this person a man or woman?"
Lina looked at her concerned expression. She was disgusted. This woman only wanted to appear concerned to play the role of the all-powerful matriarch amongst these elites.
She didn't really care.
But Lina played along.
"It was...a woman. A very young woman, actually..."
The men in the room all sighed audibly. At least nobody would go pointing fingers at them. They would all still remain in Shen Moshi's good books.
They just couldn't make an enemy out of him.
But the panic hadn't subsided.
All the women under thirty began to look around nervously. Would they all be questioned?!
Would someone falsely accuse them to save their own skin?
Lina was disgusted at the pretentious young girls, spoiled and seated on their high horses.
