His words seemed to come with a room for negotiation, but it filled his tone with a warning.
Ming Zhongsheng snorted. "From the day I groomed you to be the next successor, you had no personal life."
"Grandfather, I can really do without Bright Vision." He looked at him with a face of seriousness.
Suddenly, his eyes turned slightly red. "I'm exhausted after all these years. If I could turn back time to 16 years ago, I wouldn't rebel. I would listen to you and accept any assignments you gave me. I won't slip away to skip studying. Then, grandmother wouldn't have died and I wouldn't need to carry so many burdens."
His grandmother's burdens.
However, Ming Zhongsheng didn't give in. He remained adamant. "Even so, I will not agree with your relationship with the illegitimate daughter of the Yan's."
"This time, I won't listen to your orders no matter what."
"I won't give up on Su Yue," he added with utmost determination.
