The Favored Heiress

The Li Family's most beloved daughter, Li Qiao, suffers a broken engagement. Her family, incensed by the man's actions, vows retribution. Later, Li Qiao encounters her ex-fiancé’s elder brother, Shang Yu, also known as Shang Shaoyan. He is described as Nanyang's most mysterious figure, a powerful and obsessive underground Overlord whom many fear. Li Qiao, standing in the rain, introduces herself to this formidable man with a slight smile, hinting at a potential future as his wife, or at least sister-in-law. Months pass, and Li Qiao crosses paths with her former fiancé. He mocks her, questioning if she still harbors hope. Suddenly, a stern voice intervenes, commanding him to show respect to his sister-in-law. From that moment, Nanyang City whispers of only one rumor: the notorious Overlord of Nanyang cherishes a single woman, Li Qiao, with unwavering devotion.
