Retrieve JSON object till level 1

I'm reading data from database and converting it to a JSON object which have multiple collections and multiple levels but I only want to retrieve json till level 1 and no related collections or data. I've used following line of code in C# for that purpose

var json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj, new JsonSerializerSettings() { MaxDepth = 1, ReferenceLoopHandling = ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore });

Above line is returning following

{
  "abc": [
    {
      "Id": "TEST-06",
      "No": 1,
      "Code": " ",
      "Description": ".....",
      "Percentage": null,
      "Details": []
    }
  ],
  "xyz": {
    "Id": "TEST-06",
    "No.": 1,
    "Date": "2018/07/06",
    "Enable": 0,
    "Reason": "....."
  }
}

I only want the object "abc" but it's also returning xyz. I searched everywhere and they say use max depth property to serialize json object to specific depth. Can anyone please help with that?

You can get only "abc" object simply by using JObject property:

var jObject = JObject.Parse(YourJSonString);
var abcObject = jObject.First;

Update for Without "abc" Object

Create a class with any name for the JSon main object.

public class AnyClass
{
    public string Id { get; set; }
    public long No { get; set; }
    public string Code { get; set; }
    public string Description { get; set; }
    public object Percentage { get; set; }
    public List<object> Details { get; set; }
    public List<object> xyz { get; set; }
}

Deserialize your JSon string with this class type:

var deserializeObject = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<AnyClass>(jsonString);

Now in deserializeObject, you would have all properties and xyz object.
