The Night Leaf

The night before her wedding, her world shattered.
Betrayed by her own sister and abandoned by her fiancé, who demanded her kidney as the price for his love, she thought her life was over. But she refused to be a victim.

At the altar, she made a bold move: she called off the wedding and declared she’d marry anyone willing to step up. To everyone’s shock, he—the richest and most powerful man in the city—stepped forward, claiming it was his “duty” to marry her.

Overnight, she went from a betrayed bride to the wife of her ex-fiancé’s uncle, turning the tables on everyone who wronged her. From navigating family drama to outsmarting scheming rivals, she rose to become the undisputed queen of both families, building an empire of her own.

Now, with a thriving career and a husband who adores her, she’s living her best life. But when her husband calls, begging her to come home because their twins are “starving for attention,” she knows her chaotic yet glorious life is just getting started.

From Runaway Bride to Global Queen

Qiao Yi found an excuse to brush off Old Mr. Lu. She knew that Old Mr. Lu must be aware of the issues between her and Qiao Xin, but he never actively asked about them, and she herself didn't want to bring these matters up.

Seeing that Qiao Yi was reluctant to elaborate, Old Mr. Lu didn't press further. He smiled, nodded, and then had Lu Xiaohua and Qiao Yi link arms with him to cut the cake.


The cake was a towering nine layers, nearly as tall as Qiao Yi.


It was a cake that Qiao Yi had made herself, spending a whole two hours just piping the cream. After finishing it last night, she kept it in the cold storage room and had it brought out just a moment ago.
