At this point, Khoo walked out from another unit and asked what was going on, said Ms Wu. She did not elaborate on why he was there.
Khoo told the guard that Ms Cui was his friend, sparing her from being chased away, said Ms Wu.
Khoo then drove her home, telling her on the way that she was a good woman and it was her ex-boyfriend's loss not to treasure her. He also asked her to be his girlfriend.
Ms Cui agreed after considering for a month, although Ms Wu said she and others cautioned her against going out with a man who would ask a stranger to be his girlfriend.
