Seeing her sister staring at her with a confused look, Ding Lizhen took a deep breath and said, “It’s… it’s down there.”
At first, Ding Lina didn’t catch on, but the moment she saw how embarrassed Ding Lizhen looked, it suddenly clicked.
Ding Lina glared at her with a mix of frustration and worry. “Are you sure it’s down there? You little brat—have you gotten yourself a boyfriend? Spill it!”
Ding Lizhen replied, looking wronged, “No, sis! You know I’ve never been interested in guys. All I want right now is to study hard. How could I possibly have a boyfriend?”
That only made Ding Lina even more confused.
She knew her little sister’s personality inside out. Just as Ding Lizhen had said, she’d always been obsessed with studying and learning ever since she was little—it was almost like she was addicted to it. That was why the family had never worried about her having a crush too early. In fact, after she went to college, they started worrying that she might never find a boyfriend and end up an old maid.
The reason Ding Lina had gotten so angry earlier was simply because she was afraid Ding Lizhen might have actually gotten a boyfriend without telling her—and if she ran into some player, it would be a total disaster.
Seeing how anxious Ding Lina was, Qin Jiang spoke up. “Let’s run some tests first and see what’s really going on.”
He turned to Zou Molly.
“Take her in for an examination, and let me know the results afterward.”
Zou Molly nodded and motioned for Ding Lizhen to follow her.
Ding Lizhen visibly relaxed when she realized it would be a female doctor doing the exam.
Once Ding Lizhen was gone, Ding Lina said urgently to Qin Jiang, “Doctor, my sister is a really good girl who takes care of herself. Even if something did happen, it would definitely be because some scumbag tricked her.”
“Is this… some kind of problem down there?”
Qin Jiang glanced at Ding Lina and said flatly, “Based on the pulse, there’s a strong possibility it’s a sexually transmitted disease. But as for which specific one, we’ll need the test results to confirm.”
Ding Lina looked extremely worried.
“How could it really be that kind of disease! If she has it, is there a chance of a cure? Will it leave permanent scars or anything?”
Qin Jiang shot her a puzzled look.
Why did it seem like this older sister knew quite a bit about it?
Just then, Ding Lina’s phone rang.
The moment she answered, a polite voice came through.
“Hello, is this Ms. Ding Lina?”
“Yes, that’s me. What’s up?”
“We saw your return request online. May I ask if you weren’t satisfied with our clothing, or if there was any quality issue?”
Ding Lina scoffed. “I’m perfectly satisfied. I just don’t like it anymore. What, can’t I return it?”
The store owner kept a courteous tone.
“Ms. Ding, we received the clothes you sent back, but we noticed they’ve already been worn.”
“There are wrinkles in several places, and there’s also a bit of an odor…”
Before the owner could finish, Ding Lina cut her off impatiently:
“So what if they’ve been worn? Am I not allowed to try on clothes after I buy them?”
“How else am I supposed to know if they fit or suit me?”
“Our country supports seven-day no-reason returns! Do you even know what ‘seven-day no-reason returns’ means? If you don’t give me my refund, I’ll take you to court, and you’ll end up paying me even more!”
The store owner hadn’t expected Ding Lina to be so difficult.
She let out a resigned sigh and said, “Alright, Ms. Ding. We’ll issue the refund to your account shortly.”
Hearing that the owner agreed to the refund, Ding Lina was satisfied.
But she quickly added, “You’re Shangyi Fang, right? I bought two of your newest styles last night. Make sure you ship them out early—don’t be so sluggish about it.”
The owner explained, “Ms. Ding, we’ve already canceled the orders for those two items.”
“What!”
Ding Lina was furious.
“Who gave you permission to cancel my orders! I already paid!”
“You’re in business—how dare you cancel my order!”
The owner patiently clarified, “Ms. Ding, we checked your purchase history.”
“Since last month, you’ve bought over thirty items from our store—all of them our latest styles.”
“But every single time, on the sixth day after purchase, you’d apply for a return and send the worn clothes back to us.”
“So after careful consideration, we’ve decided to add you to our store’s blacklist. From now on, we will no longer do business with you.”
With that, the owner hung up without giving Ding Lina a chance to argue back.
Ding Lina clutched her phone, fuming.
“This is infuriating! What kind of customer service is that? I’m going to report them! I’m going to leave them a bad review!”
Because Ding Lina had her phone volume turned up high, everyone in the livestream had heard the entire conversation.
Seeing her so livid now, the viewers found it hard to sympathize.
“Wait, why is she so mad? Has she ever thought about her own behavior?”
“Buying dozens of clothes—all the newest styles—and returning them on the sixth day? We all know what that’s about, don’t we?”
“That’s not what the seven-day no-reason return policy is for! People like her are just abusing consumer protection laws.”
“I used to run a clothing store. Before I opened it, I had over a hundred thousand in savings. After a year, I was over three hundred thousand in debt.”
“The thing I feared most about running an online store was the seven-day no-reason returns—especially during sales events. You’d sell thousands of orders in a day, ship everything out, and then get thousands of returns right after the event.”
Quite a few viewers who had run online stores before started sharing their own horror stories about difficult customers.
At first, everyone thinks running an online store is a goldmine—like you can invest a little and make a fortune.
But in reality, it’s a total trap.
Between all the policies, the crazy customers, and the platform fees, it can drain your life savings in no time.
Qin Jiang also noticed that Ding Lina’s clothes and pants still had their tags attached. Which meant she was probably planning to return today’s outfit too?
Just as Qin Jiang was pondering this, Zou Molly came out of the exam room with Ding Lizhen.
Zou Molly leaned in and whispered something to Qin Jiang.
He nodded and gestured for Ding Lizhen to sit down.
“Dr. Zou just examined you. You have cauliflower disease.”
Ding Lina, who had been fussing just a moment ago, suddenly went quiet, her expression turning strange.
Ding Lizhen looked confused.
“Doctor, what kind of disease is ‘cauliflower disease’?”
Qin Jiang said flatly, “It’s a type of STD. The medical term is condyloma acuminatum, cauliflower-type.”
