She looked at the old man, her expression still icy, "Didn't you say I am your biological granddaughter? After all these years, you owe me some compensation."
The old man nodded, "Yes, what would you like, a car, a house, or what?"
"I don't want anything." Ji Anning shook her head, "I just want you to let me go, and to treat my uncle kindly."
Having said this, she turned with tears in her eyes and walked towards the door.
She had not taken many steps when the old man said behind her, with pain in his voice, "Anning, it's precisely because you are my biological granddaughter that I can't let you go."
Ji Anning did not turn back, replying coldly, "I am twenty years old now, surely I have the freedom to live my own life?"
"Anning, you are a good child." The old man still wanted to retain Ji Anning.
Watching her stubborn little silhouette, he furrowed his brows, lost in deep thought.
