She turned to Song Yinzhang and said, "Although Ming Jing took your first place in the last exam, Ming Jing is also my good friend, and I care about both of you. Please reconcile for my sake and shake hands."
Song Yinzhang laughed and said, "Ziyan, do you really think I'm that narrow-minded? Just because someone gets better exam results than me, I should hold a grudge against them? You not only underestimate me, but also insult Ms. Zhu."
Ming Jing glanced at Song Yinzhang, smiled, and said, "For the next exam, I'm happy to have you challenge my first place."
"Deal."
The two seemed to have a mutual appreciation for each other.
While they chatted and ate, Song Yinzhang quietly asked, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming to Jiangzhou? You only told me when you were about to leave."
"You're so busy, I didn't want to disturb your studies."
"Did you sneak out again? Go back and wait for Mr. Bai to break your legs."
