Shen Nian took in Miao Suiping's reaction. She was quite satisfied with the results of that single needle.
"It seems you've had a taste of it now. You should know better than to run your mouth, right?"
Miao Suiping nodded frantically. She understood. She really, truly understood.
"I can let you go. But you should be well aware that if I can do this to you once, I can do it again. You know I have that power."
Miao Suiping nodded again. She knew. This time, she really knew!
"From now on, it's best if your family stays away from us. If your mother does anything she shouldn't, I'll hold you responsible. Understand?"
Miao Suiping nodded again. She understood. She would keep an eye on her mother and make absolutely sure she didn't offend Shen Nian!
"Good."
With that, Shen Nian stood up, instantly retrieving the silver needle from Miao Suiping's body. Then, she turned and walked away.
