"Then why are you avoiding her?" asked Raelle. It's not like she hadn't noticed it. Before whenever he talked about Tang Hebe, he was calm. But since yesterday, he had been avoiding her name and definitely didn't want to go to see her either.
"Do you think I recalled our memories once I looked at her after all these years?" asked Shui Xian in return. "Then you're wrong.
