"Mom, I can explain." Guan Ming said as calmly as he could. "I have a friend over, she got into an accident and I had my assistant buy her clothes. I need you to not over react to this."
"A friend from this country? How can you have a friend from this country? You've never been here!" His mother accused. "Did you book a whore or something?"
"Mom!" Guan Ming said angrily. "You will not call her that, she is my friend. Also yes I have friends in this country, two, or three, I don't know how to consider the other one. But I met them in Hong Kong."
"Where you met your boyfriend?" Lu Ning said as her eyes became as wide as saucers.
"Mom, no, I've never been romantically involved with a man!" Guan Ming said as he tried desperately to defend himself.
"Ming, I understand you want to protect your image, but you can tell mom." Lu Ning said as she tried to be as supportive as possible towards her son.
