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

Shang Yu's sparse cold smile faded, but Mo Liang's gaze silently landed on the left pocket of Li Qiao's hoodie.


At that moment, Li Qiao's hand was still in the pocket. Catching the man's gaze, she intuitively stretched out her hand, revealing a wrinkled little brocade bag lying in her palm, "Someone just gave me a peace charm. It's said to ensure safety wherever one goes. If Master Yan likes it, I'm re-gifting it to you by proxy."


The man's somber expression softened, and he stopped the motion of fiddling with his fingers. Under Li Qiao's surprised gaze, he reached out of the car door and very proudly, slowly took the little brocade bag, "Hmm, accepted."


The moment he took it, his rough fingertips brushed against Li Qiao's palm, tickling and tingling, like an electric current seeping into her skin, restlessly stirring her soul.


Li Qiao couldn't help but lower her head and curl the corners of her mouth, her mood, shrouded in gloom for so long, suddenly brightened.
