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 379: Not a Romantic Deal

The business car stopped beneath the laboratory building.

Li Qiao slept soundly, showing no signs of waking up.

Shang Yu gave Liuyun a look, and then the automatic door slowly opened.

The man gently held Li Qiao in his arms as he got out of the car, walking along the road in front of the lab building towards the dormitory building in the backyard.

The night was as dark as thick ink, and the surroundings were so quiet that only an occasional cicada's chirp could be heard.

Liuyun and Luoyu maintained a moderate distance behind them, providing protection.

Upon entering the building, the white incandescent light overhead shone on Li Qiao's face, and she snuggled further into Shang Yu's embrace with closed eyes.

The man slowed his pace, looking down at her, "Awake?"

Li Qiao's face pressed against his neck, rubbing with her forehead, "Mmm."
