It was rare for Nn to be so flustered that he stammered.


    If his subordinates had seen him, they would have been so shocked that their eyes would have popped out.


    But fortunately, he only showed this helpless side of himself in front of Serenity.


    Nny down next to Eliza, feeling inexplicably happy.

    Listening to his crush talking to him seriously by his side, it felt like he was being coaxed to sleep by his lover. Nn, who felt quite sweet, finally rxed and gradually fell into it.


    As Nn''s breathing gradually calmed down, Eliza''s chanting voice also gradually became quieter.


    Little by little, in the end, there was only the sound of the stream flowing and the feeling of the breeze blowing gently.


    Eliza, who felt sleepy for some reason, rubbed her eyes.


    She thought, ''Forget it, I''ll just take a nap.


    ''Tina will definitely call me when shees backter.''


    Thinking of this, Eliza moved her body andy down on the side.


    There was some distance between her and Nn, neither too close nor too far.


    After she fell asleep, it seemed that only the two of them were left in this space. When Nn woke up, he saw this breathtaking scene.


    The sleeping Eliza was so quiet that he couldn''t help but want to get closer to her. He wanted to listen to her breathing and gaze upon her sleeping face.

    Shey there peacefully, her robe slightly disheveled. Her hat had fallen off at some point, revealing long, ck, and smooth hair scattered across the stone, slightly messy.


    Her eyes were tightly shut, eyshes trembling slightly. Her rosy lips were parted a little, and with every soft breath, a certain man couldn''t help but draw closer.


    Just as he was about to touch Eliza''s lips, Nn stopped himself.


    She knew nothing. If he went any further, he might ruin the rtionship they had just found.


    He had to restrain himself.


    The distance between them now didn''t define their future.


    He would have his chanceter.


    Even if the opportunity didn''t present itself, he would create one himself.


    Eventually, reason triumphed over the beast that was about to break free from the cage within his heart, pushing back the unspeakable desire.


    Just as Nn was about to straighten up and pull back, Eliza, who was sleeping soundly beneath him, seemed to have tossed and turned, perhaps because she was lying ufortably.

    With this movement, Nn''s thin lips brushed against Eliza''s delicate cheek.


    Nn''s pupils constricted instantly, almost losing control.


    He hurriedly left Eliza''s side, breathing heavily, then turned and punched himself hard.


    The punch was silent, but forceful.


    He hit himself so hard that blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.


    Thus, when Eliza woke up, she saw Nn with a cut on the corner of his mouth and a slightly swollen face,


    Unaware of what he had done to himself, Eliza asked in surprise, "What happened to your face and your mouth?"


    Unable to tell the truth, Nn made up a clumsy excuse. "I slept too soundly just now and identally fell off the rock, hurting my face and the corner of my mouth."

    Eliza suddenly felt remorseful upon hearing his words. "It''s my fault. If I had known, I would have stayed by your side and you wouldn''t have fallen like this." Nn didn''t think it was her fault at all. Seeing her ming herself, he quickly said, "No, it''s okay. I''m not very stable in my sleep. Even if you had been watching me, I might still have fallen, so it''s not your fault.


    "Besides, it''s not a big deal. Just some ointment will do."


    Eliza was now even more nervous than he was.
