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

Chapter 231: Chapter 231: A Stronger Dose is Needed

As for the others, they had been worried that Shen Nian would be bullied by Miao Suiping! But now, it was plain to see Miao Suiping kneeling on the ground, begging Shen Nian! How could she possibly be in any position to bully Shen Nian?

Shen Nian stopped when she reached the doorway.

In truth, Shen Nian never intended to actually call for help. She was just bluffing to scare Miao Suiping.

After all, if word of this actually got out, the Miao Family would lose face, and people might even start gossiping about her and Lu Cheng.

Shen Nian had no desire to let the Miao Family suffer such a huge loss—and potentially drag her and Lu Cheng into a scandal—all over someone like Miao Suiping.

Besides, Miao Suiping was just as terrified as Shen Nian had anticipated.

There was no use reasoning with someone like Miao Suiping. And since they were relatives, Shen Nian couldn’t very well resort to violence. The only option was to scare Miao Suiping so badly she would never dare to try something like this again.

As it happened, Miao Suiping had inherited her personality entirely from Guo Chunxiang—weaknesses and all.

"So, you admit you were wrong? You won’t dare to do it again?"

Shen Nian said, turning back to look at Miao Suiping.

After crying out that last sentence, Miao Suiping had squeezed her eyes shut, not daring to look at Shen Nian, terrified she would see her walk out to call for help.

Only when she heard Shen Nian’s voice did Miao Suiping slowly open her eyes.

When she saw Shen Nian stopped in the doorway, Miao Suiping finally breathed a sigh of relief. But she couldn’t relax completely. After all, Shen Nian was still standing right there. One more step and a single shout was all it would take for people to come running.

"I won’t. I won’t dare again."

The circumstances left her no choice. No matter how unwilling she felt, Miao Suiping could only surrender for now.

Hearing Miao Suiping’s answer, Shen Nian walked over to her and squatted down in front of the woman, who was crumpled on the floor.

"Remember what you said today. If you ever make the same mistake again, today’s threat will still be very much in effect!"

Shen Nian whispered this into Miao Suiping’s ear, then she looked at her, smiled, and stood up. She walked back to where she had been standing before, paying Miao Suiping no more mind.

That final smile from Shen Nian, however, seemed to be seared into Miao Suiping’s mind, and she wouldn’t be able to forget it for a long, long time.

So much so that in the future, whenever Miao Suiping even thought about doing something to harm Shen Nian, that smile would flash through her mind.

Watching Shen Nian return victorious, Shen Xiangnan wanted nothing more than to rush over and give her a round of applause. But when he glanced back at Miao Suiping, he still felt a little worried.

"Sis, will this really work? What if she starts spreading rumors after we leave?"

’Words are just words; there was no guarantee Miao Suiping wouldn’t try to cause trouble some other way.’

’Everyone here today knew Miao Suiping was trying to steal Shen Nian’s husband, but other people didn’t! If she started spreading nasty rumors, wouldn’t it be Shen Nian’s and Lu Cheng’s reputations that suffered?’

"Hmm, you’re right."

Shen Nian looked at Shen Xiangnan and nodded. ’With a personality like Miao Suiping’s, she probably does need a stronger dose of medicine.’

And it had to be said, Miao Suiping was thinking exactly what Shen Xiangnan had suspected. ’Anyway, once their family leaves, this place will be my domain!’

To her dismay, however, Shen Xiangnan had called her out on the spot. Worse, Shen Nian had agreed with him. And now, even though Shen Nian had already been walking away, she was turning back, approaching her again with a beaming smile.

"You... what are you doing? What else are you going to do to me?"
