Chapter 294 The Engagement Invitation

After a long time, just when Lucia felt that she was about to lose her breath, the hand that was clasped on her shoulder suddenly let go.

Like a fish being released, she inhaled heavily, with her heart thumping uncontrollably.

Once she looked up and met August's shining eyes, she was embarrassed and became even more nervous.

The man narrowed his eyes slightly, smiling, "Still spicy?"

Lucia spoke with some embarrassment, "No...I don't feel spicy anymore."

With saying that, she hurriedly averted her eyes, picked up the porridge box on the table, lowered her head, and began to eat.

Although she felt that her mouth was not hot anymore, she felt her heart was hot.

After quickly drinking half of the porridge, Lucia hurriedly spoke, "President Adams, I’m done eating and I'll go back to work..."

"Wait a minute."

August frowned and swept a glance at the porridge that was still half left, "Why are you eating so little?"

He had known Lucia for so long that he knew very well how much she could eat.She must not have eaten enough with such a small amount.

Originally Lucia was feeling too awkward with him like this and wanted to leave earlier, but she didn't expect to be exposed so soon, so she smiled at August with some embarrassment, "I am trying to lose weight recently..."

"Lose weight?"

As if a layer of frost had been stained between his eyebrows, August pursed his lips and said, "Why?"

She was so skinny.

If she still was on a diet, she would be malnourished and anemic.

Seeing the warning in the man’s eyes, Lucia had to sit down again, "I'm just saying."

"Do not lose weight."

August raised an eyebrow, "You are just right."

What did he mean by "just right"? Lucia was confused, "What do you mean?"
