let’s see... tell her she does not make it because of her looks, then hand her the keys to the car on a dangerous cliff road and ask her to drive the rest of you home.

"The 29-year-old woman, identified only as Yu, was a waitress when she met the businessman at a restaurant in the coastal city of Qingdao in 2000.

At the time, the businessman, identified only by his last name -- Fan -- was married and had four other mistresses, according to the Peninsula Metropolis Daily newspaper in Qingdao."

I'm not a big Fan of adultry, but see what Yu get when Yu mess around?

She should have made a Yu turn.

Either way, it was bound to hit the Fan.
