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 171: Li Qiao Is Feeling Moody

Shang Yu uncrossed his long legs, leaned forward to tap off some ash, and looked down at Li Qiao through his eyelashes, "Come here."

Li Qiao didn't hesitate, threw aside the cushion, and moved to sit beside him.

The air was tinged with the scent of tobacco, intertwining with the fresh agarwood fragrance emanating from him, quietly tempting her rationality.

At that moment, the man tested the temperature of the teacup on the table with the back of his hand, then picked it up and handed it to her, "Sobriety tea, drink it and go to sleep."

The tone was indisputable.

Li Qiao accepted the teacup, the temperature was just right, comfortably warm in her palms.

She took a small sip, detecting the sweet taste of honey.

She hadn't drunk much tonight, just one cup of Remy Martin—it wouldn't knock her out.

But right now, her thoughts felt a bit scattered. The gloom that persisted all night seemed to be clearing up with this cup of sobriety tea.
