The Favored Heiress

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.

Chapter 99: Sounds Very Special

Li Qiao paused to think for a moment, her eyes brimming with a smile, "Not yet, has Master Yan eaten?"

Shang Yu did not answer and simply turned his gaze toward her slowly, his cool eyes deep, still, and without a ripple.

Li Qiao met the man's gaze, his exquisite features highlighted and three-dimensional in the sunlight shining through the window, but the slight pursing of his lips and the crease between his thick eyebrows all spelled displeasure.

Knowing she was in the wrong, Li Qiao took a soft-hearted step forward, her hands propped on the edge of the large desk as she leaned in with a smile to explain, "You weren't here when I left; I'll let you know in advance the next time I go out."

Shang Yu reached out to crush the cigarette butt in the ashtray, languidly lifted his eyelids, and with a slight tilt of his chin toward the direction of the coffee table, he spoke in a somewhat helpless tone, "Go heat up the food."
