When Xie Pan'Er said this, tears began to fall from Luo's eyes, large and incessant. Her silent crying made Xie Pan'Er's heart ache even more.
"Mother! If you don't want to talk about it, then don't. But I will not be returning this servitude contract.
I will wait for my brother to return. Once he's back, we will go to our Eldest Uncle, retrieve the family registry, and strike our father's and grandfather's names from it. We will take the properties that rightfully belong to our fifth branch and establish our own household."
Xie Pan'Er's unyielding stance was fully taken in by Luo, whose body involuntarily trembled even more.
"Pan'Er, no, I beg you! If you want your freedom, just find someone to marry, and you will be free.
You can go live your own life and not worry about your father and me. But this servitude contract, we cannot accept it, let alone be removed from the clan. Pan'Er, please listen to me."
