Manxi

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

Li Qiao ate distractedly during the meal.


Even though the food at Crystal Garden was delicious, she still felt that something was missing.


Twenty minutes later, she set down her chopsticks with a cold expression, wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, caught a glimpse of the cellphone by the table from the corner of her eye, picked it up, stood up, and said, "I'm going to take a walk."


"Hmm?" Tang Yiting was chewing on a meatball, her mouth corners still adorned with two strands of crystal noodles. She hastily chewed a couple more times and watched the retreating figure at the doorway, muttering to herself, "Why do I feel like she's about to abandon me again?"


Tang Yiting was quite accustomed to this routine abandonment.


Wen Shi put down his bowl and chopsticks as well and glanced at the private room's door, seemingly off-handedly murmuring, "Is she and Shang Shaoyan close?"


Tang Yiting slurped a mouthful of vermicelli and vaguely shook her head, "I don't know!"
