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 111: Pass

Li Qiao disappointedly uttered an "oh," even Shang Yu didn't know, maybe...only her father was privy to the inside story.

"Since the marriage has been annulled, naturally the marriage contract is void. Instead of dwelling on the marriage contract, why don't we talk about how you plan to thank me?" Shang Yu's deep gaze fixed on Li Qiao, his tousled hair slightly moving, the lift at the end of his sentence mixed with the sound of rain, possessing a kind of gentleness that stirred the soul.

Li Qiao stretched out her hand toward the outside of the corridor, preventing the rain from falling in clear patters against her palm, but that did little to extinguish the burning in her heart.

She slowly clenched her fingers, letting the rainwater slip through her fingers, suppressing her slightly erratic heartbeat, cleared her throat, and asked with a forced smile, "What kind of thank-you gift does Master Yan like? Could you give me a hint?"
