"In my view, Third Sister is an 'ordinary person' with an ordinary personality and ordinary pursuits and ideals."
Old Jin once again fell into silence.
After a long while, he gently nodded and sighed, "You're right."
"Everyone has their own ambitions. Even for me, I am ultimately an 'outsider' to Third Sister. I don't share the Tang surname, nor did I give her life. I just lent her a hand during her difficult times."
"In some literary works, it's often said that 'a little kindness should be repaid in vast amounts,' but in reality, things are far more complex than those works. She does indeed thank me, but in her heart, I could never be as important as her parents and family. After all, blood ties are irreplaceable..."
"The Third Sister is actually quite a pitiful child. She indeed has talent, but because her parents are illegitimate children of their respective families and have almost no status within their clans, she receives very few resources and has always been overlooked."
