Chapter 216 She Brought Fish Soup To Visit Him In The Hospital

The next day, at dawn, Lucia got up from bed.She put on her clothes, ran downstairs to the supermarket, bought a fresh fish, and ran back to the kitchen at home.

Last night, she followed the tutorial on her phone and learned to cook fish soup.

Although it was not a failure, the taste was average.So she deliberately got up early and planned to cook again.

The relationship between her and August was not very good, but when she thought that he had helped her solve her father's operation problem, this pot of fish soup was nothing.

Besides, if she learned how to cook soup, she could cook it for her parents.

August was her guinea pig at best.

Thinking of this, she felt a lot more cheerful, and immediately quickened her movements and boiled a pot of water.

Lucia was busy cooking in the kitchen for more than an hour.

The fish soup was almost finished and looked delicious.It was exuding an appealing aroma and it looked quite good. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Lucia took a sip and nodded with satisfaction.

Compared to the fish soup she had cooked last night, this time it was so successful.

After putting the fish soup into the insulated lunch box, she changed her clothes and rushed to the hospital.

She specially prepared two, one for August and the other for Burton, so that no one would complain.

Walking to the door of the ward, she knocked on the door before she pushed the door open and walked in.

In the ward, August was sitting on the bed with a laptop in front of him.His face was serious as if he was working.

Hearing the sound, he looked up and saw Lucia in a light blue shirt walking in with two lunch boxes in her hands, looking silly but cute.

August retracted his gaze, looked at the computer screen, and said coldly, "Well, that's it.

We'll talk about the rest when I get back to the company"

After giving a brief instruction, he turned off the computer, put it aside, and looked up at Lucia.

"I...made some soup.You can drink it while it's warm."

Seeing that he was not busy, Lucia walked up and put a thermal box on the bedside.

Looking at her, August unconsciously thought of what Joshua had said last night.

Unexpectedly, she came.

"What soup?"

He raised his eyebrows slightly, leaned back, glanced at the other lunch box in Lucia’s hand, and couldn't help asking, "What's in that?’ Lucia glanced at the lunch box in her hand and said softly, "It's also soup, for Burton."

When he heard that it was for Burton, his face suddenly turned cold.

He had thought she was making nutritious soup, especially for him, but...

A trace of displeasure flashed across his heart.

He pursed his lips tightly, and his voice became cold, "I've eaten, and I can't drink.So take it away."

Seeing August's sudden cold attitude, Lucia was a little surprised.

After a few seconds, she got a little angry.

She had gotten up early in the morning and made him soup, but he didn't even look at it and said he wasn't going to drink it.

Seeing August continue to work with a cold face as if he didn't want to say another word to her, Lucia got angry and immediately picked up the insulation box, turned around, and walked out.

"Well, if you don't drink it, I'll just give it to Burton."

Hearing Lucia’s words, August frowned, "How dare you?"

He felt unhappy when he heard that she was going to give the soup for him to another man, even if that person was Burton.

When Lucia got angry, she said angrily without thinking, "Why wouldn't I dare? I made the soup myself.I was stabbed by a fishbone several times! I shouldn't have done it!"

Hearing what she said, August blinked.

She had made fish soup? Could it be that she knew that he liked fish soup? From her tone, the soup was specially made for him.

Seeing that she was about to leave, August immediately stretched out his hand, grabbed her arm, and said in a deep voice, "Let me see."

Lucia said angrily, "Why? It's fish soup, and you don't care!"

August frowned, holding her arm tightly, "I'm talking about your hand."

Lucia was stunned.

Before she could react, he took away the soup box from her hand.

He grabbed her hand tightly.

As soon as she lowered her head, she saw him pinching her hand with a frown and looking at it over and over.

"You..."

Lucia struggled, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Don't move."

August frowned.

Seeing that there was indeed a small red dot on the tip of her index finger, he raised his eyes and his voice softened a little, "Does it still hurt?"

Lucia's heart skipped a beat when she saw his gentle eyes.

"No...it doesn't hurt anymore."

She quickly took her hand out of his hand, and looked away, "You drink the soup while it's warm.I'll send it to Burton."

With that, she quickly walked out.

Before he got to the door, August's faint voice came from behind, "I'll give you a minute.Come back immediately."

Hearing this, Lucia felt speechless.But she couldn't help quickening her pace and quickly walked out of the ward.

After knocking on Burton's ward door and greeting him, she handed over the soup box and said, "This is the fish soup I made.Remember to drink it while it's warm."

Burton was not in a high mood.He forced a smile and thanked her.

Lucia hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but ask, "By the way, how are you and Paula?"

Yesterday, after Paula left her apartment, it seemed that she was going to visit him, but Paula didn't send her a message after that.

Lucia didn't know how it was going between them.

Hearing Paula's name, Burton paused slightly and said slowly, "Not good."

Indeed, yesterday he had sent Paula a message and found that he had been blocked by her.

After they had kissed, she ran away like Cinderella, and then deleted his contact information.

Wasn't it bad enough? Meeting Lucia's slightly startled gaze, Burton smiled wryly, "She blocked me."

When Lucia heard this, she blinked and didn't know what to say.She smiled awkwardly and lightly eased the atmosphere, "Maybe she still doesn't know her heart."

Burton nodded and said nothing.

Lucia came out of his ward unhappily and returned to August's ward with a gloomy expression.

When August saw her come in, he glanced at the clock on the wall, and snorted, "Four minutes."

Lucia came to her sense and glanced at the clock, feeling amused.She hadn't expected August to be so naive.

He had timed her.

She felt speechless.She walked to his bed, glanced at the soup box, and said with a cold face on purpose, "Hurry up.I have to take away the lunch box."

August raised his eyebrows, picked up the soup box, and opened it, and there was a fragrant smell coming out.

The fish soup looked very good.He picked up the spoon, took a sip, paused, and suddenly thought of something.

Seeing August's sudden silence, Lucia was a little flustered, so she asked, "What's wrong? Isn't it good?"

August came to his sense and said lightly, "No, it's delicious."

It was just that he suddenly thought of a person, the person who had made fish soup for him every time he was sick or injured.
