บท 102: Chapter 102

Despite the mini fight she had with Sheng about leaving the house, a fight she won, Jiao spent a fun evening with Naomi and Francine, who also ended up coming over for a girl's night. They talked a lot, well the she-wolves did, Jiao kind of listened, absorbing their stories, and envying their easy friendship. She didn't understand the name calling ? bitch, wench, skank ? but obviously, Naomi and Francine didn't take offense at the often derogatory terms uttered with affection and laughter.
