"Don't forget you have Song family," reminded Huang Shuyi. "And that's a big family."
"I have the blood of Xiang family in my veins," retorted Xiang Wai. "Not Song family." From a very young age, she never accepted herself as a part of a Song family. And that's why their opinions hardly mattered to her. She knew very well that she was part of the Xiang family. Her surname was Xiang. Not Song. So, just staying with the Song family won't make her a member of that family.
"Come, I'll treat you to lunch, my deskmate," said Huang Shuyi. His tone was quite sarcastic when he called her 'deskmate'. This idiot woman wasn't even willing to call him a friend! And it's true that if he didn't try to stay in contact with her, she'd have long drifted far away from him. So even though they talked only a handful of times in a year, it was still better than his other classmates. "Who knows when I'll see you again."
