Chapter 150: Ne Design


    Trantor: _Min_


    Gu Zhi felt a momentary panic but quickly regained herposure. “There are many simr styles in the world. How can you be sure this ne is yours? And if you’re saying I took your things, do you have proof?”


    Gu Dai looked at her and calmly said, “I never said you took my things. I just mentioned that it looks simr. But now that you mention it, it does make me wonder if you might have taken them.”


    Feigning arrogance, Gu Zhi retorted, “Why would 1 take your clothes, let alone wear something you wore three years ago?”


    Though she spoke confidently, her heart was racing.


    When she had moved into the Gu household three years ago, she couldn’t resist iming all of Gu Dai’s beautiful clothes for herself.


    After her father, Gu Ming, secured the Gu family’s assets, she stopped wearing Gu Dai’s old clothes. In fact, whenever she saw those clothes, they reminded her of the days when she was envious of Gu Dai, and she had thrown them into a small cabin in a fit of anger.


    Now she was living in that small, shabby cabin, and Gu Dai’s old clothes were the best she had to wear. To celebrate Gu Ming’s discharge from the hospital, she wore one of the nes, never expecting Gu Dai to notice it.


    But regardless; it had been three years, and Gu Zhi didn’t believe Gu Dai had any evidence to prove the clothes were hers.


    As this thought crossed her mind, the fact that Gu Dai couldn’t do anything despite knowing what happened, her eyes were filled with smugness and defiance.


    Liu Min chimed in, “Exactly, why would your sister wear your clothes? After all, she was also raised by me and your Elder Uncle. She wouldn’t do such a thing!”


    Gu Ming didn’t speak but nodded in agreement.


    Gu Dai raised an eyebrow, finding the situation amusing. The ne Gu Zhi was wearing was one she had made herself three years ago; there couldn’t possibly be another like it in the world.


    Gu Dai lifted her gaze to Gu Zhi and said with a smile, “May 1 take a closer look at the ne? I feel like it looks even better than the one I had before.”


    Without any suspicion, Gu Zhi took off the ne and handed it to Gu Dai. Crossing her arms and rolling her eyes, she said, “Sure, take a look. But be careful with it. If you damage it, you’ll have to pay me ten times its original price. This is my favorite ne, after all.”


    Ignoring Gu Zhi, Gu Dai took the ne and examined it carefully.


    A sense of foreboding filled Gu Zhi as she watched Gu Dai scrutinize the ne. She extended her hand and said, “Give me back the ne!”


    Ignoring Gu Zhi’s plea, Gu Dai didn’t return the ne; instead, she gripped it tightly in her hand.


    “What do you mean, Gu Dai? Why are you taking my ne?” Gu Zhi’s pupils dted as she raised her voice.


    Gu Ming also furrowed his brow, discontentedly saying, “Gu Dai, give the ne back to your sister!”


    Gu Dai’s smile vanished, and she spoke coldly, “It’s my ne. Why should 1 give it to someone else?”


    Gu Zhi’s pupils contracted. Forcing herself to speak, she said, “This is clearly my ne. You can’t just im it’s yours because you have a simr one!”


    Unable to hold back, Gu Daiughed. She extended the ne for everyone to see and said softly, “So, you’re saying you’re Gu Dai?”


    Confused, Gu Zhi didn’t understand what Gu Dai meant. However, upon seeing the name “Gu Dai” engraved on the ne, she froze, disbelievingly saying, “Impossible. The name wasn’t there when Ist looked. You must have switched it!”


    Nodding her head, Gu Zhi affirmed her own words.


    Liu Min chimed in, “I’ve also seen this ne before, and there was no name on it. You must have switched it when you held it in your hand!”


    Even Gu Ming became exceptionally angry, furiously saying, “Gu Dai, you already have control of the Gu Group. Are you still not satisfied? Now you’re even taking your sister’s ne?”


    In the face of the trio’s usations, Gu Dai remained silent. Instead, she gently pressed a small button on the ne.


    The next second, the name on the ne slowly disappeared.


    When Gu Dai saw the shocked expressions on their faces, she said, nonchntly, “The reason you couldn’t see the name before is that you didn’t activate the switch. This is a feature I specifically designed years ago. Now that the evidence is irrefutable, it’s clear that Gu Zhi took my ne.. Do you still have anything to say?”
