Chapter 187 She's dead... Why are you still alive?
At this moment, right in front of Lan Shuyu's grave, the two sides are facing off!
Tang Bugui stared coldly at the person in front of him, his eyes resolute yet tinged with a chilling intensity!
"Get out of the way!"
He lifted his foot, took a step forward, and let the long sword pierce his chest another inch.
"You..." Lord Lan's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously withdrew his longsword.
He injured the Great General of the Shang Dynasty. If His Majesty investigates, that would be a serious crime!
But Tang Bugui did not retreat; instead, he continued to approach step by step.
His gaze was fixed on the tomb; he just wanted to see it once more…
He took one last look at that lonely grave, one last look at the woman he longed for...
Weeds spread across the grave, as if they had grown into his heart.
He clenched his fists, his eyes filled with deep sorrow and bewilderment. In his confusion, he seemed to see a beautiful figure.
"Brother Tang..."
Tang Bugui trembled slightly; he seemed to hear her cry.
Joy welled up in his eyes, and he quickly raised his hand, wanting to grab the slender figure in front of him.
The light and shadow blurred, and before him, there was no woman, only a man holding a long sword, glaring at him with a cold expression...
Tang Bugui tilted his head slightly, the joy in his eyes vanishing instantly, leaving only deep longing and hatred...
He lunged forward and grabbed Lord Lan's longsword!
"Tang Bugui, let go! Are you crazy? This is my daughter's grave! If you're going to act crazy, go back to your home..." Lord Lan's face was extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth and glared at the man in front of him.
He knew Tang Bugui hated him, but he didn't know that this guy was actually a madman who came to dig up his grave!
If the Lan family's grave keeper hadn't gone back to report, his daughter's grave would have been dug up.
He held a long sword in his hand, and drops of crimson blood dripped from the tip of the sword.
Tang Bugui still refused to back down an inch, his gaze burning so intensely it seemed capable of scalding anyone...
"I want to take her away from here. She's not happy here!" Tang Bugui said softly, letting the blood drip from his hands.
"Nonsense! My daughter is in our family's ancestral graveyard, with our ancestors and her mother taking care of her. How could she be unhappy? Don't talk nonsense!" Lord Lan kicked Tang Bugui away and roared angrily, somewhat embarrassed and angry.
"General!" Guard Ling hurriedly stepped forward, his face extremely pale, his voice trembling, and his eyes bloodshot.
When has their great general ever been so miserable?
All of this is because of the Lan family!
Guard Ling and the people behind him hated the Lan family to the core.
Ignoring Lord Lan's words, Tang Bugui looked at the lonely grave, a smile appearing on his face.
The girl is only twenty-one years old. How could she like those old men? She hasn't even gone to church with him yet...
"I want to marry her, bring her into my Tang family, and have her buried in my Tang family ancestral grave... We will not share a bed in life, but we will share a grave in death..." His eyes were filled with tears, but the corners of his mouth were upturned with a hint of joy.
This is insane!
He's really gone mad!
That's the person I've been longing for for over five years!
That night, that one glance, and he knew she was the one.
Before meeting Lan Shuyu, no woman had ever caught his eye; after meeting Lan Shuyu, no woman could ever catch his eye again.
Guard Ling and General Cheng's expressions changed drastically. They had come here with the general to relocate the graves.
But when they arrived, the general chased them away and stayed there alone, talking to the tomb.
Tang Bugui, who had never cried before, lay on the grave mound, talking and then suddenly started to cry, just like a child…
"What did you say!" Lord Lan was stunned. Suddenly, he realized something, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
"Tell me, where were you on October 2nd, six years ago?"
Lan Daren's affection for his daughter also disappeared more than five years ago.
Lan Shuyu was missing for three days and three nights. When she returned, she was covered in marks, clearly indicating that she had been having an affair.
He was furious at the time, but after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find out who the unfaithful man was.
His daughter refused to reveal who the man was, so he angrily locked her in the courtyard to make her reflect on her actions.
Unexpectedly, six months later, her daughter discovered she was pregnant...
Later, Lan Shuyu insisted on keeping the child, but since the pregnancy was too advanced, there was no way to abort it.
For the sake of her child, she was even willing to sever ties with her own father...
Lord Lan was furious, and in that same year, he elevated his former concubine to the position of matriarch of the Lan family!
She was also his mother's distant niece, fulfilling his mother's wish.
From then on, his relationship with his daughter became extremely hostile. The last time he saw his daughter was when she was covered in blood, having given birth to that wretched child.
Lord Lan half-closed his eyes and stared fiercely at Tang Bugui.
"Say it... was that person... you!" Lord Lan stepped forward. He had been cowardly for most of his life, but at this moment his eyes were filled with a fierce light.
Tang Bugui pursed his lips, offering no further explanation: "Yes!"
"Hahahaha... Waaah... Lan Shuyu, you lied to your father so badly! Why didn't you tell your father that the man was him? If you had known, your father would have caught you and brought you back..."
His daughter died. The daughter he had loved for fifteen years abandoned him, her father, for another man and for an unborn baby.
He hates Tang Bugui for being irresponsible!
He also hated Xiao Su Bao. Even though that little girl was born to his daughter, he still hated her. If it weren't for Xiao Su Bao, his daughter wouldn't have suffered such severe bleeding and damaged her health.
How could he be depressed!
Tang Bugui and Xiao Subao are both murderers who killed their daughter.
He knew that Madam Lan treated Xiao Su Bao badly, but so what? She deserved to die anyway!
That was the person who took his daughter's life!
“Give me back my daughter. She’s my first daughter, the one I cherished and raised with all my heart… For you, for that wretched child, she doesn’t want me anymore!”
"You don't want me, the father who raised her... Tell me, why did you want to hurt her?" Lord Lan's voice trembled, his eyes filled with hatred.
His daughter's reputation was ruined; everyone knew that she had been violated. He tried to cover it up, but he couldn't!
In the imperial court, the officials impeached him, and the elders of the Lan family pressured him!
He just wanted to protect his daughter, to safeguard her!
But they all wanted their daughters to go to nunneries, or they wanted to drown their daughters in pig cages!
How could he possibly agree!
She's still so young!
She was only fifteen years old; her life had just begun!
She is the proud eldest daughter of the Lan family, a favored daughter of heaven, and the most talented woman in Chaoge!
But all of this was ruined by this man!
He ruined his own daughter!
Lord Lan was unwilling. He opposed those censors and the clan elders, which angered his mother to the point that she almost beat him to death with a stick.
But he wanted to protect her!
But that brat just wouldn't tell me who that man was!
He was just angry and wanted to punish her to make her realize her mistake!
But he only went on a business trip and came back to find his daughter gone!
He saw Little Su Bao...
But the more he looked at that little girl who looked so much like his daughter, the more he hated her!
Hatred to the core!
Xiao Su Bao is a jinx; she's the one who ruined her own daughter...
"She's dead... why are you still alive!" Lord Lan gripped his longsword tightly this time, about to plunge it into his heart.
