Xiang Wan responded with a cold laugh, "Since that's the case, why do you worry about him being with me? You should be glad he's getting close to me, using me, taking revenge on me. Why do you keep asking me to stay away from him?"
Xun Lu was at a loss for words momentarily: "I just don't want him to take any more risks..."
Before she could finish, Xiang Wan cut her off: "It's not that you don't want him to take risks, it's that you don't want to take a 'risk' yourself. You can't be sure whether what you just said is actually what he's thinking, and you have no clue what's really on his mind; you're afraid that he truly can't leave me. Sowing discord works once, but do it too much and it becomes fake and annoying."
Xun Lu didn't speak, just looked at her coldly.
Xiang Wan shrugged her shoulders: "It looks like I'm right. Actually... if it weren't for the years I called him 'Uncle', a man like him is quite likable. You think so too, don't you? You like him."
