Shocked! The Young Master's Petite Darling Is a Master of Mysteries-Chapter 314: Showing Authority

I don’t know if the Gu Family did it intentionally or unintentionally. Even though Gu Zhi is the one with some connection to the Gu Family, the room allocated to Gu Zhi is evidently not as good as the rooms given to Xia Mian and others.

Xia Mian’s room faces the sun, and the interior is grand and elegant, the overall environment clean and tidy.

Meanwhile, Gu Zhi was given a dark, damp, and somewhat shabby small room, resembling a storeroom.

The moment the door was pushed open, those unpleasant memories from the real world Gu Family flooded Gu Zhi’s mind.

In the real world Gu Family, she was also the one who was neglected and unloved, carrying the identity of an illegitimate daughter, living in the servant quarters.

Now, she has come to her real home, yet still has to face such treatment...

"The Gu Family seems quite wealthy, but unexpectedly, they can still find such a shabby and cramped room." Xia Mian had somehow arrived behind Gu Zhi, looking at the shabby room and mocked unceremoniously.

The Gu Family servant who was about to lead Gu Zhi inside heard this, and his face turned slightly embarrassed, "Miss Xia might not know, this is our young lady’s intention, wanting to temper Miss Gu Zhi’s character."

As soon as the servant’s words fell, Xia Mian scoffed again, "Your young lady’s intention? How does your young lady have the face to do such a despicable thing?"

Xia Mian spoke with no politeness, causing Gu Zhi to glance back at Xia Mian.

This is Gu Family’s territory, yet Xia Mian, in order to defend her, showed not a shred of respect to the Gu Family.

The servant’s face looked somewhat unpleasant, "Miss Xia, this is our Gu Family’s internal matter."

Xia Mian sneered, "Gu Zhi is my friend, I’m still here, and you dare to treat her so disdainfully! What? Do you look down on me?"

Xia Mian’s words were quite aggressive.

Gu Zhi is Gu Zhi, Xia Mian is Xia Mian, yet she was completely mixed up into one.

Gu Zhi raised her head to look at Xia Mian, a warm flow spread in her heart.

Once, she regarded Xia Mian as her greatest enemy, the biggest stumbling block for Qin Shuang’s revenge.

But now, after Qin Shuang tricked Xia Mian, and risked everything in the river of time, Xia Mian is genuinely sincere towards her!

"Since Miss Xia feels this situation is inappropriate, I will report to the young lady and rearrange Miss Gu Zhi’s accommodation!" The servant, though feeling Xia Mian’s interference with Gu Family affairs a bit meddlesome, recalled the Family Head’s previous instruction not to offend Xia Mian, and she did not dare confront the Divine Clan’s young lady.

Xia Mian smiled slightly, "You better make me satisfied, my patience and temper are not very good."

Xia Mian’s words carried a threatening tone, and though the Gu Family servant’s face was pale, they did not dare to retort.

Though Xia Mian hasn’t been in the Mystical World for long, legends of Xia Mian are everywhere in the Mystical World.

This girl, who seems young and harmless, truly possesses the power to overturn the clouds and rain!

The servant replied hesitantly, "Miss Xia, please wait, I will be right back."

After the servant left, Gu Zhi looked at Xia Mian with a complicated expression, "Miss Xia, actually, you don’t need to do this for me..."

Xia Mian gave her a glance and lazily replied, "Today’s your first day back to the Gu Family. It’s one thing if the Gu Family doesn’t give you a welcoming ceremony or acknowledgment, but such disdain? Do they look down on you? No, it’s me they are looking down on!"

Xia Mian’s expression turned cold, "If they set this precedent, once I leave here, do you think you can survive in the Gu Family?"

Gu Zhi tightened her lips and said nothing.

She understood well the logic Xia Mian was speaking.

But it’s only the first day in the Gu Family, and Xia Mian was already confronting the Gu Family for her. She’s afraid the Gu Family might secretly plot something against Xia Mian.

"These days, you should focus on practicing. After the so-called clan competition in the Gu Family, I want to see what else the Family Head can say!" Xia Mian’s eyelids lightly drooped, concealing a trace of anger in her eyes.

She wants to see how far the Gu Family will go!

The servant returned quickly and with a smile, "Miss Xia, our young lady has already rearranged accommodations for Miss Gu Zhi! We still have to give face to Miss Xia in the Gu Family!"

Xia Mian slightly curled her lips without saying anything.

"But, the yard is a bit far from Miss Xia’s, if you two want to have late-night discussions, it might be inconvenient!" The servant smiled somewhat insincerely.

Xia Mian’s eyes slightly darkened, is the Gu Family still trying to stir trouble?

By separating them from Gu Zhi, would it make it easier for them to target Gu Zhi?

"I see there are a lot of rooms here in the yard, just vacate the one next to mine for Gu Zhi to stay in!" Xia Mian didn’t pick up on the servant’s words but casually pointed to the room next to her own.

Following Xia Mian’s finger, the servant’s face immediately changed, "Miss Xia, that room has never been occupied."

Xia Mian raised an eyebrow, "Unoccupied? Is there something unclean inside? Then why have me arranged next to that room? Is it an attempt to harm me?"

Xia Mian spoke with seriousness, nearly making the servant cry.

"Miss Xia, you’re joking!" The servant said with a sad face, "I can’t say what’s in that room, but it’s a rule that it can’t be occupied. I’m just a servant, please don’t make things difficult for me..."

Xia Mian nodded gently, "Difficult, huh? We’re not obligated to stay in your Gu Family."

While speaking, Xia Mian turned to loop her arm with Lu Zechuan’s, "Let’s go stay at an inn!"

Lu Zechuan smiled slightly, "Okay."

Seeing Xia Mian and the others about to leave, the servant’s complexion changed immediately, "Miss Xia, please wait!"

The Family Head instructed her to arrange everything for Xia Mian and the others. If she didn’t do well, she would be held accountable. Being kicked out of the Gu Family would be a minor consequence; her life could be at risk!

For the sake of her own life, she had to go against the young lady’s wishes, "I will rearrange accommodations for Miss Gu Zhi immediately!"

Under the pressure of the Gu Family’s young lady, the servant arranged for Gu Zhi to stay in the room next to Xia Weizhang.

Upon leaving, the servant’s expression was extremely unpleasant, like mourning.

Failing to execute the Family Head’s instructions could cost her life. Acting against the young lady’s wishes to give Gu Zhi a hard time wouldn’t fare well either...

Watching the servant leave, Xia Mian slightly squinted her eyes, "This Gu Family’s young lady is really on par with that fool Xia Weiyang."

Gu Zhi tightly pressed her lips together, saying nothing.

Before she was recognized by the Gu Family, she was already being targeted by the younger generation of the Gu Family?

But she doesn’t have Xia Mian’s overwhelming strength. In the Gu Family, can she really stand her ground and reclaim everything that belongs to her?
