A story about a Chinese woman in Kenya

Mama told me that there’s a Chinese woman named Mary in this community. All the rich old men know her very well, and vise versa. So, this afternoon I got the chance to meet her.
She owns a club house, which sells beer, Indian food (now I know a lot of them on the menu), Kenyan food, and Chinese food. The club house is decorated in Chinese style, with the red latterns hanged on the ceilings and the laughing Buddha on the corner. At 6:00pm, there are some customers at the club, none of them female. Telling from the way how she dealt with costumers, I think she is good at socializing.
So, who is Mary? She came from Shanghai and arrived in Kenya in her 20s and all of a sudden, she became the most popular prositute in this Indian community. To be honest, she is quite beautiful, comparing with other aging Indian womens. Now she is 40 but still looks charming. Chinese women are good at keeping themselves looking young!!! Her beauty makes her become the enemy of all the women in this community. She is quite rich. She got a lot of fortune given by men. Now she became the director of Mary’s house club.
After a short conversation in Chinese, I got her business card. Mary Huang, director of Mary’s club. Well, there’s nothing to blame her. You know, it’s easy to condemn one person. Where there’s demand, there’s supply. So, there’s nothing wrong with prostitute. Instead, she is successful today and she earns by herself. She is just a model of businesswoman. Different from the prostitues in the slum, she knows how to do business, make more income, and protect herself. She always sees her futre, but not the girls in the slums.
