Zhu Yulan enunciated every word, especially that "friend for life" part.
For this haughty heiress, it was a clear as a declaration; her whole body trembled slightly.
Xu Musen looked into her eyes for a long time, quietly sighed, and continued cutting the cake, his gaze slowly narrowing until he shook his head with a smile, "I'm quite greedy, I like a lot of dishes, but sadly, my stomach is only so big. So, every meal, I always save space for my favorite dish, and if I can't finish, I leave it on the table. Wouldn't it be such a waste of good ingredients?"
Xu Musen's gaze softened as he looked at Zhu Yulan.
They were both smart people.
Zhu Yulan slightly pursed her lips, took a bite of the cake, and forced a hum with a tugged smile, "Are you saying I'm not a good dish, not as delicious and delectable as your Nuannuan and Ming Yue?"
It was a curious analogy, just like the girl's complex and entangled heart right now, indescribable by any common flavor.
