Lan Xinghe snorted coldly and reprimanded them with dissatisfaction.
The Green Summit Guard and the others were reprimanded by Lan Xinghe in a dignified manner. Their faces were filled with fear as they immediately stopped in their tracks and said in fear and trepidation, "Third Master, it was the Seventh Young Mistress who brought back a valiant cousin. We were no match for him, so we were forced to leave in a sorry state."
He briefly explained what had happened.
Hmm?
Lan Xinghe couldn't help but frown. He was puzzled. After all these years, how come he didn't know that Lan Jiaoye had a cousin? He wondered if Lan Jiaoye had been deceived by that swindler.
"Let's go. Bring me to him. If that person dares to deceive my daughter, I will tear him apart alive."
Lan Xinghe waved his hand domineeringly. They didn't dare to refuse. After all, he had the cultivation of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. His aura was strong. On top of that, he had been in a high position for many years. Naturally, he had developed a strong aura.
"Yes, yes, yes. Third Master, this way please."
The Green Summit Guard was sweating profusely. His back was drenched in sweat. He brought Lan Xinghe to the front yard again.
He didn't know if this was the third time he had provoked Xiao Yang. If Xiao Yang was angry with him, his days would be over.
Soon, they arrived at the front yard.
Lan Xinghe looked at his daughter holding Xiao Yang's hand and acting cute. He was so angry that his nose almost became crooked. His breathing became rapid, and his chest heaved up and down. His lungs were about to explode from the air.
"Impudent! Where did this brat come from? How dare you be so rude? Didn't your parents teach you anything?"
Lan Xinghe's face was red with anger. He glared at Xiao Yang with his bell-like eyes and roared at him.
He was really angry. His daughter had always been unruly and had never treated him like this. Now, she was treating a young man like this. How could he tolerate this? Please, even if he was an old man, he would still be jealous. What if his daughter fell in love with this young man?
"Father, you're here. This is Cousin Xiao Yang. Don't misunderstand."
When Lan Jiaoye saw that Lan Xinghe had arrived, her face lit up with joy and pride. She felt that bringing Xiao Yang's cousin over was a reasonable and rational choice.
"Shut up."
However, as soon as Lan Jiaoye opened her mouth, she was immediately reprimanded by Lan Xinghe.
"Why aren't you coming back? You're a girl, and you're pulling a stranger like this. If outsiders see this, do you still want your reputation? You only know how to fool around all day and not cultivate in peace. You even know how to come back today? You don't have the slightest bit of composure and modesty that a girl should have. Hmph, go and lock yourself up for a month. You're not allowed to go out for a month. "
Lan Xinghe had a fiery temper. No matter which father it was, if they saw their daughter being pulled by a stranger, they would definitely feel uncomfortable.
He doted on his daughter very much. Otherwise, how could this matter be resolved with a month of confinement?
Lan Jiaoye felt wronged. She pouted and pouted. Her cute head tilted to one side. She looked like she wanted to throw a tantrum at Lan Xinghe. She didn't even want to look at him.
When Lan Xinghe saw this, he couldn't help but feel his heart ache.
He immediately softened his tone and said helplessly, "Daughter, I'm doing this for your own good. It's fine if you don't do your job and fool around all day, but you can't just bring any random guy home. That's too casual."
He spoke with a sincere and heartfelt expression. He sighed. The girl in front of him was his precious daughter. Of course, he loved her dearly. He was also worried that his daughter would be taken advantage of.
There was a precedent. His sister, Lan Xingmeng, was acquainted with a guy named Xiao Wangu from Donglin Town. In the end, Lan Xingmeng, who was supposed to inherit the position of the head of the family, ended up in a very bad situation. This was because she was affected by her husband's family.
For a prestigious family like theirs, they had to be well-matched in terms of social status.
Small family in Donglin Town couldn't compare to the Lan family even if they worked hard for a hundred years. How could they have the right to marry Lan Xingmeng?
Lan Xinghe was afraid that his daughter would follow in Lan Xingmeng's footsteps.
"I'm not casual. He's not an outsider. He's my cousin, Aunt Xingmeng's son."
Lan Jiaoye was still firm in her thoughts. Through this period of time, Xiao Yang had taken good care of her in all aspects. He even helped her raise her cultivation by four realms, reaching the sixth level of Martial Master. She had almost surpassed Fourth Sister and Third Sister. This was a great kindness. How could she be an ungrateful person?
"What? You're my sister's child? "
This made Lan Xinghe a little dumbfounded. His face was filled with disbelief.
It had been too many years. Lan Xingmeng's child hadn't been here. He had almost forgotten.
Lan Xingmeng and Xiao Wangu had a child. This child's name was Xiao Yang. However, that was a very long time ago.
It could be said that the reason why Lan Xingmeng was in such a difficult situation was because of the birth of Xiao Yang's child.
If it wasn't for her pregnancy, the Lan family could have completely separated her and Xiao Wangu. Then, Lan Xingmeng would have smoothly taken over the position of the head of the family. However, she even had a child. What could they do? They could only accept it.
Although it was a tacit agreement, Lan Xingmeng's position as the head of the family wasn't just taken away from her. There were many things that were taken away, such as her reputation, image, treatment, etc.
In short, Lan Xingmeng's current situation was very bad.
Once he thought that the main culprit behind Lan Xingmeng's situation was Xiao Yang, he couldn't help but shout at Xiao Yang, "Good boy, it's you. You still have the guts to come here. Don't you see what your mother has become because of you and your father? If it wasn't for your mother's insistence on keeping you, she would already be the head of the Lan family. Everything is because of you. Because she lost everything, you still have the face to come here? I'm going to teach you a lesson on her behalf."
Lan Xinghe thought about many things. His entire body became violent. With a fiery temper, he was about to hit Xiao Yang.
However, he was quickly stopped by Lan Jiaoye.
"Stop, father. You're a dignified elder. Don't you feel embarrassed to hit a junior? In name, you're his uncle." Lan Jiaoye stood in front of Xiao Yang and stubbornly looked at Lan Xinghe.
"Bullsh * t, I don't have a nephew like that."
Lan Xinghe was so angry that his face turned red. However, his raised hand didn't fall. Firstly, his daughter was standing in front of him. Secondly, his heart was very complicated. He didn't really want to hit Lan Xinghe, but he felt that he couldn't take it anymore. He needed to vent his anger.
