At a travel agency in Shanghai, I asked the Chinese girl behind the counter if she could escort me on a city tour and asked her for her mobile number so I could call her to make arrangements.
She gave me a big smile, nodded her head and said, “Sex sex sex wan free sex for tonight.”
I replied, “Wow, you Chinese women are really hospitable!”
A guy standing next to me overheard, tapped me on the shoulder and said, “What she really said was: 666136429.”
