Hyson came back very soon and started eating the cake. He didn't even offer a bite to anyone even just for the sake of being polite.
"Yan Zi said you love cakes. It seems you really do."
Hyson looked up at Xia Zhao, "Of course, I love cakes. But then again, I like anything sweet."
"Really? You see like a chocolate guy to me though."
"Huh?"
"You know, someone who seems sweet but hides a darker bitterness behind that sweetness."
Hyson paused and looked into his eyes before focusing back on eating his cake without commenting on that statement. He didn't think it was a question. And neither did he think, Xia Zhao wanted an explanation. It was just that; a statement.
And it was a statement he couldn't refute either.
