The engagement of the most adored daughter of the Li Family was broken off. Her furious family members railed against the heartless man and vowed to make him pay the price. * Later on, Li Qiao met her ex-fiancé’s big brother by chance. Some said he was the most mysterious man in Nanyang and his name was Shang Yu, aka Shang Shaoyan. While some others called him the overbearing and obsessive underground Overlord of Nanyang from whom everyone should stay away. Standing in the misty rain, Li Qiao gazed at the ruthless and untamed man with a shallow smile, said, “Hello, I’m Li Qiao.” She would become her ex-fiancé’s sister-in-law, if not wife. * Li Qiao and her ex-fiancé met again on the street several months later when he sneered at her, “Are you following me? Haven’t you given up hope yet?” A harsh voice berated him from behind, “Show some respect to your sister-in-law!” From now on, only one rumor was circulating in Nanyang City – The merciless Overlord of Nanyang had one woman he uncritically doted on. Her name was Li Qiao.

The Favored Heiress

Of course, the slap was never going to reach Li Qiao.


The moment the woman made her move, Li Qiao had already calmly picked up the thesis materials on the table and, as the palm was mere centimeters from her cheek, she used the thick materials to forcefully knock the woman's wrist back.


Under the effect of inertia, the woman's body swayed unintentionally, and she propped herself against the table with barely concealed anger, her eyes slitting with fury, "You dare to fight back?"


Li Qiao remained indifferently seated in her original position, and the teachers who had rushed over to separate them now stood protectively by her side, warning the woman not to strike again.


Li Qiao found this whole scene quite ironic.


In truth, ever since that exposé was posted last week, few in the campus sought the truth; the majority of students, including the teachers, predictably had their opinions led by the prevailing winds of public sentiment.
