Wang Lan found it really hard to join in the conversation about women's topics.
Jiang Xinyu and Yu Zhisha, however, seemed to hit it off like old friends, chatting about everything from fashion to handbags, from this spring's new arrivals to future trends.

The mall, which didn't seem large in Wang Lan's eyes, made him feel as though he had traversed an entire training ground map.
After nearly an hour of shopping, Wang Lan found himself carrying six or seven shopping bags, yet the main purpose of Jiang Xinyu's trip seemed as distant as ever.

"Shopping," Jiang Xinyu replied.
"No, I mean, didn't we come out to buy bath products?"
