Reborn in the 90s with a Space: Winning Back My Husband

Chapter 173: Chapter 173: Where Her Future Lies

"Sis, I didn’t mishear that, did I?"

Shen Xiangnan asked Shen Nian after staring blankly for a long moment.

"Pinch yourself, and you’ll know if you misheard!"

’If this weren’t her brother, Shen Nian really wouldn’t want to deal with the goofy-looking Shen Xiangnan in front of her.’

"Huh? Ow, that hurts!"

Before Shen Xiangnan could even react, a sharp pain shot through him, and he saw that Lu Xinyue had pinched his arm.

"So you can feel pain. Looks like we really didn’t mishear!"

Seeing Shen Xiangnan’s reaction, Lu Xinyue nodded in satisfaction.

"Lu Xinyue, what did you pinch me for!"

"No reason. Just wanted to confirm whether we misheard or not!"

"Then why didn’t you pinch yourself!"

"Pinching myself would hurt too much. Pinching you is better!"

"You..."

Shen Xiangnan glared at Lu Xinyue. ’How could this person talk about pinching someone so righteously!’

Infuriated by Lu Xinyue, Shen Xiangnan momentarily forgot the shock of finding out Shen Nian was the provincial top scorer.

Lu Xinyue, however, didn’t continue bickering with Shen Xiangnan. Instead, she turned to Shen Nian with stars in her eyes.

"Sister-in-law, you’re actually the provincial top scorer! That’s so amazing! I admire you so much! Sister-in-law, from now on, you’re the person I admire most, bar none!"

’From now on, not even her brother could compare to her sister-in-law’s place in her heart!’

’It was a no-brainer. Keep her sister-in-law happy, and her big brother would naturally be happy too!’

Not to be outdone, Shen Xiangnan chimed in, "Sis, from now on, you’re my idol—the die-hard kind!"

"..."

’Can I have someone throw these two die-hard fans out?’

However, the leader on stage didn’t give Shen Nian the chance to keep pondering whether or not to throw them out.

"Next, let’s welcome our provincial top scorer, student Shen Nian, to the stage to say a few words!"

Li Zhe announced from the stage. The moment his voice fell, thunderous applause erupted, and everyone around Shen Nian turned to look at her.

"!!!"

’Why didn’t anyone tell me beforehand that I’d have to go on stage? Director Li, is it really okay for you to be so impulsive?’

However, under everyone’s watchful eyes, Shen Nian couldn’t just run away. Besides, it wouldn’t be right to show such disrespect to the Director of the Education Bureau and the principal.

On top of that, the two die-hard fans behind her, along with Lu Cheng, were all looking at her with encouraging eyes.

Shen Nian sighed and, with everyone’s eyes on her, could only walk toward the stage of the grand auditorium.

"Student Shen Nian."

After welcoming Shen Nian onto the stage, Li Zhe handed her the microphone he was holding.

From an angle the audience below couldn’t see, Shen Nian shot Li Zhe a glare before taking the microphone.

"Hello, everyone. To be honest, when I heard the Director ask me to say a few words, I was completely baffled, because no one told me this was part of the program! But since I’m up here, I’ll just share a couple of thoughts. No matter where we stand now, or where we are headed in the future, I hope all of you can seize the present, see the people and things around you clearly, cherish what should be cherished, and grab the opportunities that belong to you, so that your future will have no regrets! I am very lucky to have already found my future, and I hope all of you can be as fortunate as I am. Thank you!"

After speaking, Shen Nian bowed to the audience. When she straightened up, her gaze fell in Lu Cheng’s direction.

’Standing there was the person she wanted to cherish most in this life! He was her future!’
