Jia, if you assume that:

1. The geometry of each line is identical
2.  The noise does not violate the CM range of the receiver,
3. The CM rejection of the receiver is perfect

Then you will not see any effects whatsoever.  Put in more realistic models 
for each point above and you will find:

1. Differential noise injection
2. Very bad if this happens, don't let it!
3. Increased jitter

For these reasons, it is a poor idea to reference high performance links 
against multiple voltage rails.  It doesn't mean that you cannot do it 
successfully, but it does mean that you have a lot of additional homework 
to do, and may not be able to meet a given performance target.

Steve.
