The cherry-red miniskirt… ruined her mood.


She immediately switched on her laptop and contacted the customer service platform on the website.


To her surprise, the customer service attendant answered her politely, “I’m sorry, but you’ve already washed the item and cut the tag off. You can’t return it anymore. How about we compensate you with an amount of ten dollars?”


An Xiaoning felt like she was about to vomit blood.


She decided not to argue with the customer service attendant and accepted that she could not return the item.


Instead, she immediately gave the online store a negative review that included a detailed description of the skirt that she had received.


Not long after, Fan s.h.i.+xin said to her, “Young Madam, the customer service attendant of that online store called and requested that you delete the review.”


“Pa.s.s me your phone.”


He handed it to her and asked, “Are you unsatisfied with the product?”


She described the condition of the skirt to Fan s.h.i.+xin, after which he immediately said, “They’ve seriously gone overboard. How could they still have the cheek to call us and request that we delete the comment? I can’t believe they offered you a compensation of ten dollars. Are they out of their mind?”


“Use another phone, leave yours with me for the time being.”


“Sure.”


An Xiaoning headed to the dressing room to pick out an outfit. Just as she was in the midst of putting on some makeup, Fan s.h.i.+xin’s mobile phone began to ring.


She placed her lipstick down and walked toward the bed. She then picked up the ringing mobile phone to see that it was a number from A City.


Thinking that it must be a call from the customer service attendant of the online store, An Xiaoning answered and turned on the voice recording function. “h.e.l.lo.”


“May I ask if you are Fan s.h.i.+xin? I’m Xiao Zhang, the customer service attendant of XX online store. You bought a cherry-red skirt from us and left a poor review, right?”


“Yes.”


“We sincerely apologize for the unpleasant experience you’ve had while shopping with us. You see, we’ve already refunded ten dollars to you and I think that we can talk things over calmly. Will you delete the poor review you’ve given us?”


Standing in a consumer’s shoes, An Xiaoning felt that the attendant was just patronizing her, although she sounded rather sincere.


“There’s too huge of a difference between the display photos on your website and the actual product. Do you know that you guys are deceiving consumers? I only rinsed the skirt in water before wearing it. You either accept my return or let the review stay online, alright?”


There was a sudden s.h.i.+ft in the customer service attendant Xiao Zhang’s tone, and she said, “Ms. Fan, if you insist on acting that way, then you’d better prepare yourself for calls of hara.s.sment. It won’t cause us much inconvenience anyway, we’ll see how long you can tolerate it for. We’ll continue hara.s.sing you until you delete that review.”


An Xiaoning squinted and answered sarcastically, “Oh, I see.”


“I wonder if you’ve heard about news of customers being threatened with knives and receiving shrouds for giving online stores bad reviews.”


“I’m sorry but I haven’t. However, you’re most welcome if you’re planning to do so. I shall tell you my measurements first, lest the shroud doesn’t fit me well. If you’re planning to show up at my doorstep with a cleaver and threaten to slaughter me, please inform me beforehand. Alternatively, you can also send your people here to fight me one on one. I’ll be waiting for you.”


The customer service attendant was dumbfounded. I used to be able to easily threaten those customers who left negative reviews into deleting their comments. How could this woman be so arrogant?


“Okay, return the item and we’ll refund you half the amount you paid.”


“No, give me a full refund,” An Xiaoning insisted.


“You d.a.m.ned woman… do you really think we won’t send our people to deal with you immediately?”


“Well, do you really think that the recording of our conversation won’t be sent to the police station immediately?”


After a long pause, Xiao Zhang mellowed her tone and apologized, “I’m sorry, Ms. Fan. We’re willing to give you a full refund. Will that do?”


An Xiaoning smirked and answered, “Miss, everything would have been settled if you’d said this earlier, wouldn’t it? Judging from your att.i.tude, you must have threatened customers pretty frequently, haven’t you? Transfer the money to my account before I mail your clothing back to your store.”


“Okay.”


After ending the call, An Xiaoning placed the phone down and muttered, “Turns out it was just another paper tiger. I really thought they had the audacity to show up at my door to slaughter me.”


She walked toward the dressing table and continued to put on her makeup.


Minutes later, An Xiaoning received the full refunded amount in her bank account. She then removed the skirt from the sink, wrung it dry, and dried it further with a hairdryer. She then placed the skirt into a plastic bag and handed it to Fan s.h.i.+xin. “Mail this back to them. Their address is written on the bag. Here, your phone.”


“Young Madam, did they call to threaten you?”


“It’s not just threatening, it’s blackmail. Fortunately, I’ve recorded the conversation. I deleted the voice recording from your phone after I received the full refund.”


“Young Madam, I doubt anyone would expect you to still purchase clothing online. I’m sure most people think that you live extravagantly and purchase the most expensive things and food. They probably think that an average lifestyle can’t be compared to yours. Little do they know, you can afford to drive a luxury car but you’re also comfortable with taking the public bus. You can afford to live in a mansion but you can also make do with a simple house.”


“I just decided to buy it because I thought it was rather nice.”


“I think they must be tired of living. How dare they threaten you? If they have the gall to, I’ll make sure they don’t make it out of here alive. I’ll mail the item back to them now. However, it’s already so late, are you still planning to go out, Young Madam?”


“I’m going back to Sanqiao Estate for a while. When your Young Sir comes home, tell him that he doesn’t have to wait for me to have dinner.”


“Sure.”


When An Xiaoning returned to Sanqiao Estate, she caught sight of Mo Li and No. 8 sitting on the bench, each holding a popsicle in their hands. They seemed to be in the midst of a joyous conversation.


Upon the sight of her car, No. 8 and Mo Li stood up and walked toward her. An Xiaoning drove her car into the entrance and alighted before saying to him, “Your relations.h.i.+p has really escalated. You two are such happy lovebirds.”


Blus.h.i.+ng red with shyness, No. 8 asked, “Sis, may I ask something of you?”


“What is it?”


“I want to marry Mo Li, but I don’t have a household register. Although I do have an indenture, it’s not legally recognized.”


Unsurprised, An Xiaoning asked, “Have you two decided to spend the rest of your lives together?”


They nodded and answered unanimously, “Yes.”


“Alright then, I’ll get s.h.i.+xin to settle the household register later. But whose account should you register your name under? My name is still under the Gu family’s household register, you can’t possibly register your name under that too. Mo Li, how about you and No. 8 register both your names under a single register?”


“Sure.”


“Alright, leave this to me then.”


“Thank you, Sis,” No. 8 exclaimed agitatedly.


“Let’s talk inside.”


“Okay.”


At the sight of her return, s.h.i.+ Qingzhou immediately asked, “Xiaoning, are you having dinner at home tonight?”


“Yes.”


“Alright, I’ll start cooking now then,” said s.h.i.+ Qingzhou, who hurriedly put on her ap.r.o.n.


An Xiaoning turned to the side and asked No. 8, “Did you propose to Mo Li or was it the other way around?”
