The Forsaken Son-in-Law is the Dragon Sovereign

Xu Haoran is the unwanted son-in-law of the Wu family—a man mocked, ignored, and treated like a servant in his own home. His wife, Wu Yuting, barely speaks to him, and her mother, Zhao Ailin, makes no effort to hide her contempt. Every day, he cooks, cleans, and endures their coldness without complaint.



But everything changes one evening when Zhao Ailin receives a frantic call: Wu Yuting has been hit by a car and is in critical condition at the hospital. Rushing there in shock and fear, she’s stunned to learn it was Xu Haoran who carried her daughter in and stayed by her side.



As Wu Yuting fights for her life, old grudges resurface. Zhao Ailin lashes out at Haoran, blaming him for everything, but for once, Haoran stands his ground—not with anger, but with quiet strength that leaves Zhao Ailin shaken. His words suggest that Wu Yuting’s accident may not have been random… and that she might have been trying to protect someone.



Later, as Haoran walks the hospital corridors, a strange woman approaches him. She knows his name—and she says she’s been looking for him.
