A single question had changed everything.
Not long ago, Lanlan had made him promise—no more intimacy. They would keep their relationship as father and daughter, but they wouldn't cross the line again.
Of course, Wang Xiao hadn't agreed easily.
She had begged. Over and over. Until she swore to him—she would never marry anyone else, would never love another man.
And deep down… she knew the truth.
She had never really refused him.
Not just her, but all of his daughters—after growing up, they had all started connecting the dots.
Even back in school, they had noticed—why did any male friend they made mysteriously disappear?
The older they got, the clearer it became.
Escaping Wang Xiao was impossible.
Even as he claimed, "You are free to do whatever you want."
There were always unspoken rules attached to being his "daughters."
They couldn't disappoint him.
That was the rule.
