"Shen Ziyun!" Chen Junfeng's mother said coldly, "What are you doing?" 0
 
"I'm calling the police," I replied. "Is there a problem?" 0
 
"Junfeng!" Chen Junfeng's mother was furious. "Look at what kind of girlfriend you found!" 0
 
"Mom," Chen Junfeng said, "this time Fangfang is in the wrong." 0
 
"Shen Ziyun, what nonsense are you talking about?" Chen Fangfang shouted. "I didn't open it!" 0
 
"That's right!" Lu Yueyue chimed in. "I can testify that the delivery box was opened, and the skincare products inside were also unsealed." 0
 
"Shen Ziyun, you're just slandering!" 0
 
The police officer asked me, "Is what Lu Yueyue said true?" 0
 
"Half true, half false," I said. "The skincare products were indeed unsealed." 0
 
"But it was Chen Fangfang who opened them, not me." 0
 
"I bought the skincare products; why would I open them?" 0
 
"Because you want to frame Fangfang!" Lu Yueyue exclaimed. "Officer, I can testify!" 0
 
"Lu Yueyue," I sneered, "you just said I'm a woman who loves to spend money and that I've had an abortion." 0
 
"Now how come you've changed your tune?" 0
 
A hint of panic flashed across Lu Yueyue's face. "I... I had a bit to drink that day, so I'm not too sure." 0
 
"You’re making baseless accusations!" Chen Fangfang shouted. "I didn't open your package at all!" 0
 
"Officer," Chen Junfeng's mother interjected, "my daughter is right; we didn't open the package." 0
 
"Shen Ziyun is just a woman who loves to spend money; she can't afford such expensive skincare products!" 0
 
"And Lu Yueyue also said that Shen Ziyun has indeed had an abortion!" 0
 
"Mom!" Chen Junfeng exclaimed. "Don't make things worse!" 0
 
"What?" Chen Junfeng's mother raised her voice. "Am I not speaking the truth?" 0
 
"I was standing right next to you; I didn't hear Lu Yueyue say anything about an abortion!" 0
 
 
"Ha." I scoffed, "I have surveillance cameras at home. Do you want me to pull up the footage for you right now?" 0
 
"Chen Junfeng, show the video to the police immediately!" 0
 
"Uh..." Chen Junfeng's expression faltered, "I... I didn't turn on the surveillance." 0
 
"What?" the officer asked, "You didn't turn on the surveillance?" 0
 
Chen Junfeng nodded. 0
 
The officer sighed, "Then there's nothing we can do." 0
 
"Right now, we only have Lu Yueyue's testimony and no other evidence. We can't proceed." 0
 
"You all discuss whether to resolve this privately or just let it go," he said. 0
 
"Let it go?" Chen Fangfang exclaimed, "That's not acceptable!" 0
 
"She slandered me; she must apologize!" 0
 
"You slandered me too," I retorted, "You must apologize to me as well!" 0
 
"Enough!" the officer interjected. "You all discuss it among yourselves. Once you've come to an agreement, come back tomorrow for the police report." 0
 
With that, the officer left. 0
 
I followed him downstairs. 0
 
"Ziyun." Chen Junfeng rushed out after me, "I'm sorry." 0
 
"I don't have that much money right now. Can I pay you in installments?" 0
 
"Why didn't you turn on the surveillance?" I asked. 0
 
"I..." Chen Junfeng sighed, "I didn't want my mom and sister to get involved in a lawsuit." 0
 
"Oh really?" I chuckled lightly, "Then why didn't you buy new skincare products?" 0
 
"I..." Chen Junfeng replied, "I don't have that much money." 0
 
"Nonsense," I said. "The surveillance on your computer has been running; how could you not have any?" 0
 
Chen Junfeng's expression changed: "You knew about that?" 0
 
I snorted coldly, "I assembled that computer for you; how could I not know?" 0
 
 
"Junfeng, do you not believe me?" I pretended to be upset. "Why are you doing this?" 0
 
"It's not that I don't believe you," Chen Junfeng said. "I'm thinking about our future." 0
 
"Are you breaking up with me?" I feigned sadness. "What did I do wrong?" 0
