Chapter 426 Father is a thing of the past

"Wang Wenzhou, go to hell!" Gao Yingxiang tightened his grip, trying to strangle Wang Wenzhou.

Wang Wenzhou also resisted with all his might.

"Stop hitting me, please!" Gao Guilan cried out in anguish, but the two men on the ground showed no intention of letting go, as if they wanted to kill each other immediately.

Seeing that he couldn't pry Gao Yingxiang's hand off, Wang Wenzhou punched Gao Yingxiang in the face.

"Bang!" Gao Yingxiang felt a lump in his throat, and tears streamed down his face.

Before Gao Yingxiang could even wipe away his tears, he grabbed Wang Wenzhou's hair and slammed Wang Wenzhou's head against the ground.

"Bang!" Wang Wenzhou's face slammed into the ground, and blood streamed down his nose.

Wang Wenzhou realized that although he was younger than Gao Yingxiang, he was no match for him and could only ask Gao Guilan for help.

"Little Lanlan, your father wants to kill me! Come quick, give your father a sword!" Wang Wenzhou said hurriedly.

When Gao Guilan saw Wang Wenzhou covered in blood, she was heartbroken and rushed over without thinking.

"Ah!" Gao Yingxiang turned around, staring at the tip of the sword in astonishment, and said with heart-wrenching pain, "Lan'er, are you going to kill your father? Who raised you with such hardship? Who taught you music, chess, calligraphy, and painting? Who took you out for rides and games? Listen to your father, kill him!"

“Hmm!” Gao Guilan nodded, the tip of her sword pointing directly at Wang Wenzhou.

"Damn it! He's using tears as a weapon!" Wang Wenzhou realized things were going badly and quickly shouted, "Little Lanlan, don't just listen to your dad! Who's holding your slender waist? Who's kissing your delicate, luscious lips? Who's making you scream, tear the sheets, and grab the railings while you're sleeping? Little Lanlan, it's me! Listen to Uncle, I'll chop your dad up!"

Gao Guilan's baby face was pained, and she turned the sword tip towards Gao Yingxiang.

Gao Yingxiang cursed inwardly, "You stupid girl! Your father has loved you, cherished you, taught you, and raised you for over ten years, and yet he's not as good as the man who slept with you for a year? What has that bastard Wang Wenzhou ever done besides sleeping with you?"

"Lan'er!" Gao Yingxiang cried, "You only have me as your father! Your husband is dead, you can find another one!"

After thinking about it, Gao Guilan realized that he was right; a person can only have one biological father!

Wang Wenzhou, seeing the sword tip in sight, quickly said, "Little Lanlan, can you find someone who loves you as much as your uncle? You may only have one father, but can he seduce you?"

"Wang Wenzhou, you shameless scoundrel!" Gao Yingxiang was furious. Perhaps because of his rage, he seemed to have regained his strength.

Gao Yingxiang grabbed Wang Wenzhou by the head and slammed it against the ground repeatedly.

"Clap clap clap!" Wang Wenzhou felt dizzy and didn't even have the strength to speak.

"Dad! Please, let Uncle go!" Gao Guilan pleaded repeatedly.

"Lan'er, today, only one of your father and Wang Wenzhou can live!" Gao Yingxiang was furious. Wang Wenzhou was really too wicked. Not only did he corrupt his beloved daughter, but he also wanted to harm him.

"Father!" Gao Guilan was heartbroken to see Wang Wenzhou's face covered in blood.

Gao Yingxiang ignored this and was determined to kill Wang Wenzhou.

Gao Guilan couldn't hold back any longer and stabbed Gao Yingxiang with her sword.

"Thud!" The sword pierced through his chest. Gao Yingxiang turned to look at Gao Guilan, hardly believing his eyes. His own daughter had actually stabbed him for a man!

"Father! Lan'er is sorry! Go to hell!" Gao Guilan kicked Gao Yingxiang and drew her sword.

"Bang!" Gao Yingxiang fell backward to the ground. It wasn't that he lacked the strength to get up, but rather that he didn't want to. He simply couldn't understand why his own daughter would treat him this way. Was it because Lan'er had grown up? But even if she had grown up, her father was still her father!

"Are you alright?" Gao Guilan squatted down, holding Wang Wenzhou's head in her hands, and asked softly.

"It's alright! My little Lanlan is still the best!" Wang Wenzhou smiled slightly, very happy, and nuzzled his head against Gao Guilan's chest.

Gao Guilan tilted her head and looked at Gao Yingxiang lying on the ground, then quickly took the rope and went over to him.

Wang Wenzhou stared blankly at the father and daughter, who were tying him up with a rope. Wang Wenzhou was filled with mixed emotions. He should have been happy that Xiao Lanlan had chosen him in the end. But now, Xiao Lanlan had betrayed her own father. He suddenly felt Xiao Lanlan's sadness and regretted dragging her into this.

"Wang Wenzhou!" Gao Guilan looked up and glared at Wang Wenzhou, saying resentfully, "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and come help!"

"Mmm!" Wang Wenzhou quickly went over, and after the couple tied Gao Yingxiang up, they bandaged his wounds.

"Alas..." Gao Yingxiang sighed softly, looked at Wang Wenzhou, and said coldly, "I have lost. I never thought I would lose to you."

"Old Gao, don't worry, you're my father-in-law, I would never let you die!" Wang Wenzhou said with a smile.

Gao Guilan dared not look her father in the eye, nor did she want to speak to him. She said, "Wang Wenzhou, I'll go wake up Lord Sun."

"Go ahead." Wang Wenzhou felt a pang of pain in his heart. Although Xiao Lanlan had chosen him, she had changed. Suddenly, that cute, naive girl had grown up and no longer called him "Uncle." Wang Wenzhou truly regretted it. If he could do it all over again, he would never have let Gao Guilan be there.

"Boxin! I'm entrusting Lan'er to you. She loves you so much, please treat her well. Otherwise, I will haunt you even as a ghost!" Gao Yingxiang said as if he were giving his last instructions.

"Old Gao!" Wang Wenzhou put his arm around Gao Yingxiang's shoulder and comforted him, "Don't be sad. Children can't stay with their parents forever after they grow up. If Xiao Lanlan stayed with you, could you sleep with her? You can't! I'll be the one sleeping with her for the rest of my life!"

"Hmph!" Gao Yingxiang snorted coldly.

"Congratulations, Lord Wang! Congratulations, Lord Wang, on achieving such a great feat!" Sun Chuanting immediately began to flatter Wang Wenzhou after waking up.

Wang Wenzhou shook his head with a wry smile. "What great achievement? Because of this, even my adorable little Lanlan has changed."

Gao Guilan had her back to Gao Yingxiang. She didn't dare to look back at her father because she knew she had betrayed him.

Wang Wenzhou stood up and said, "Old Sun, I'm leaving Lao Gao to you. Let's go."

Sun Chuanting nodded, walked over, and helped Gao Yingxiang up.

Wang Wenzhou held Gao Guilan in his arms and whispered, "Little Lanlan, I'm sorry."

Gao Guilan looked at Wang Wenzhou and said painfully, "Wang Wenzhou, I will have no father from now on!"

"I'm sorry!" Wang Wenzhou quickly hugged Gao Guilan tightly.

Baby Gao Guilan hugged Wang Wenzhou's neck and cried like a child.

Wang Wenzhou gently stroked Gao Guilan's hair, sighing inwardly, "Everyone grows up. But often, the ones who most oppose and find it hardest to accept their children growing up are the parents. Because in a parent's heart, their children will always be adorable and immature kids."

The four people slowly walked out of the tent.

Upon seeing the ropes binding Gao Yingxiang, Huang Long's expression changed, and he immediately commanded, "Brothers, the King of Chuang has been murdered by treacherous people! Follow me to save him!"

"Don't move! I'd like to see who dares to make a move!" Qiao Qian Gao shouted sternly.
