Chapter 2 I Called the Police
Zhang Muzhe's face changed at once. He rushed up and knocked my phone away.
"Bitch, dare to call the police? Watch me beat you to death!"
I screamed at the phone on the ground. "Officer, did you hear that? He's going to hit me!"
Passersby crowded around at once. The fried noodle stall owner next door grabbed his spatula and shielded me tightly behind him.
"Bullying a woman in public, are you even a man!"
Cheng Yanqiu edged forward carefully and took my hand.
"He Qingwei, how could you call the police over something so small? Our years of friendship..."
"Small?"
I stared at her, finding it absurd.
"Overturning my stall is small? Cheng Yanqiu, when did you become so unable to tell right from wrong?"
"But you didn't have to call the police..."
I shook her off. "How did I never see before that you're a love-brained fool who forgets friends for a man?"
"Wake up! Cheng Yanqiu!"
"He can overturn my stall today, and he can lay hands on you tomorrow! A man with unstable emotions is a bomb. You still want to stay with him?"
"Bullshit!"
Zhang Muzhe jumped in the crowd.
"Cheng Yanqiu, don't listen to her sowing discord! I'm helping you get justice!"
"These three years of Combo Deal with her, three full years of discounts—how much money did you lose!"
"Without me, you'd still be used and cheated by her!"
I watched Cheng Yanqiu lower her head, looking as if she was being swayed.
My heart went completely cold.
