I Regained My Memories and Became Rich After Getting Divorced

Chapter 169: Kneel before me, and I’ll forgive you

Translator: _Min_

After the manager heard Gu Dai, he didn’t dare to utter a single retort. Instead, he nodded obediently and stammered, “1’11 make changes, I promise to rectify everything moving forward.”

Gu Dai’s voice tinged with skepticism as she asked, “Change?”

Before the manager could nod in agreement, she smiled and continued, “If you had truly wanted to rectify things, you would have done so already.”

Turning to the sales associate beside her, Gu Dai inquired, “There are surveillance cameras in the store, right? Can we review the footage?”

Captivated by Gu Dai’s radiant face, the associate blushed slightly and stammered, “Yes, we have them.”

Feng Xue wanted to intervene, to stop the associate from complying. But under Gu Dai’s penetrating gaze, she dared not make a move. All she could do was watch as the associate went to retrieve the surveillance video.

The footage began playing from the moment Gu Dai entered the store. Though fast-forwarded, every event unfolded clearly on the screen.

After watching the video, Gu Dai’s eyes fell on the manager as she questioned, “Considering Feng Xue is an employee who steals others’ sales, bootlicks the powerful, and freely expels customers from the store—aren’t her actions grounds for her dismissal a thousand times over?”

The manager’s face twisted in discomfort, and he spoke softly, “I think…”

Gu Dai interrupted, “1 get it, she’s your daughter, so you don’t want to fire her, right? Well, in that case, I’ll have to take it up with the owner.”

Gu Dai pulled out her phone and sent a message to the store’s owner. Almost as soon as she relayed the situation, a reply came back.

Owner, “1 apologize for the poor experience. We will take serious action against these two employees. The final decision will be communicated to you as soon as possible.”

Although the manager couldn’t see the message’s details, he recognized the owner’s profile picture instantly.

Seeing this, he pleaded with Gu Dai in desperation, “1 have parents to support and three children in school. I can’t afford to lose this job…”

Unmoved, Gu Dai responded coldly, “The day you nepotistically put your daughter in this job, you should’ve considered the potential consequences. And given your position, you’ve likely reaped quite a few benefits yourself, haven’t you? 1’11 also remind your boss to investigate your recent actions.”

As soon as Gu Dai’s words fell, the manager’s phone rang.

The voice of the owner on the other end was loud and furious, directing the manager and his daughter to head to the company headquarters for further action.

Jiang Yue finally snapped back to reality as she saw the two leave.

She picked up the tie she had bought and prepared to leave, only to be stopped by Gu Dai the very next second.

Gu Dai said, “Did you forget something? Like the bet you lost to me just now?”

Jiang Yue’s face stiffened with regret. She had made the foolish assumption that Gu Dai didn’t have the means to win the bet.

The shame of having to kneel before Gu Dai would be unbearable; she’d rather die on the spot!

Backing away, Jiang Yue spoke softly, “You’re not my elder. Why should I kneel before you? You’re humiliating me, trampling on my dignity!”

Gu Dai couldn’t help but laugh at this, responding coldly, “If I remember correctly, you were the one who suggested this form of punishment. And when you thought 1 had lost, you had no problem demanding that I kneel, without any concern for dignity or self-respect!”

Jiang Yue’s face paled. She remained silent for a long moment, her eyes catching a car pulling up at the entrance. A glint of scheming darkness flashed across her eyes.

In the next second, tears shimmered in Jiang Yue’s eyes as she spoke in a pitiful tone, “Yes, I’m sorry, Sister Gu Dai. I shouldn’t have competed with you for the tie in the first place. Then none of this would have happened.”

Gu Dai’s eyebrows knitted together but she remained silent, curious to see what Jiang Yue was planning.

Jiang Yue continued, “It’s just that 1 love Brother Song Ling so much. 1 wanted to give him this tie as a gift, which is why 1 acted as 1 did. Can you understand me, Sister Gu Dai?”

Hearing the sound of the store’s door opening and seeing Jiang Yue’s woeful demeanor, Gu Dai guessed that Song Ling must have arrived.

So Jiang Yue was planning to frame her?

If that was the case, then she would play along.

With a cold voice, Gu Dai declared, “Kneel before me, and I’ll forgive you..”
