Bab 113: Coincidence or design

Mei and Lina chatted about men, about work and everything they could think about, lying in wait for hours over Lila. 

At almost 5pm, they were beginning to lose patience.

"Boss, she was supposed to be out an hour ago. What could she possibly be doing for three hours in the riding club!" Mei vented, indignantly. 

Lina just sighed. 

"Socializing...it's a full time job for some women." 

Lina was losing energy to even talk at this point. 

"Well, if spending so much time making an impression on poeple is what it takes to be a socialite, I'd rather recluse myself in the mountains!" 

Lina almost giggled again, thinking about how much socializing Mei would have to do if she ever ended up with Shu Yi. 

Maybe it was too early to think that way. They had hardly spent any actual time together.
