Listening to Su Cheng’s whisper, Eliza was surprised.
It is the primary time Eliza has seen this man’s fragile facet since she met Su Cheng.
Even within the face of such a harmful state of affairs that the entire military was defeated and the commander-in-chief was killed, the person didn’t present a hint of cowardice and bravely and decisively stood as much as preside over the general state of affairs.
Within the Wei River annihilation conflict, he personally went to the entrance line to command the officers and males of the third military to cross the river. Even in such a harmful state of affairs of hazard and flesh and blood, the person did not step again and continued to calmly command the assault and withdrawal of the third military.
Though she did not get together with Su Cheng for a very long time and solely fought facet by facet with him as soon as, Eliza appeared for use to Su Cheng’s calm, courageous and resourceful look, which attracted numerous younger folks of pandragon.
However now, the person holding her hand was like a fragile baby, holding her hand tightly, as if afraid that Eliza would disappear from him.
Taking a look at Su Cheng, who has fully misplaced her mature look previously, this robust distinction makes Eliza’s coronary heart ripple, and it appears that evidently a string has been stirred in her coronary heart.
… it must be alcohol. It’s mentioned that below the impact of alcohol, drunk folks will take off their ordinary disguise
——Eliza whispered in her coronary heart.
Eliza guessed that maybe it was due to the impact of alcohol that Su Cheng revealed his fragile look that he may by no means present to others
“Dad… Mother… The place are you…” Su Cheng whispered once more.
After listening to Su Cheng’s whisper, the ripples in Eliza’s coronary heart couldn’t assist getting greater once more.
Eliza held out her left hand, which was not held by Su Cheng, and gently wiped away the tears from Su Cheng’s eyes. Her face was smooth presently.
When Eliza wiped away the tears from Su Cheng’s eyes, Su Cheng’s whisper continued——
“Alan… The place are you… I solely have your… Solely household left… Carol… Deng Jiaer…”
One identify after one other got here out of Su Cheng’s mouth.
And Eliza is listening quietly.
Though she would not know Alan and Deng Jiaer very effectively, Eliza additionally is aware of that these two folks, like Carol, stay below the identical roof as Su Cheng.
Alan, Carol and Deng Jiaer… These three folks must be an important folks of Su Cheng.
Simply as Eliza thought so, she thought that nobody’s identify would come out of Su Cheng’s mouth——
“… Ellie… Sha… The place are you… The place…”
Eliza checked out Su Cheng in amazement.
She by no means thought Su Cheng would name her identify.
Eliza reacted shortly after a short interval of consternation.
Eliza bit her tooth, then leaned down and whispered to Su Cheng:
“I am right here, Eliza is right here, do not be afraid, Su Cheng, Eliza is right here, I am right here.”
As Eliza spoke, she additionally clenched the hand that Su Cheng was holding her proper hand.
Su Cheng appeared to listen to Eliza’s phrases. His initially curled up physique slowly relaxed and stretched out.
And the faint shade of worry on his face slowly dissipated.
Nevertheless, the hand holding Eliza was tighter.
Taking a look at Su Cheng, who appeared to relax, Eliza smiled helplessly with some pleasure, after which whispered:
“Plainly you actually regard me as an necessary pal… Actually, now we have solely identified one another for greater than three months…”
Then Eliza felt her head sinking.
“How dizzy…” Eliza whispered whereas holding her head along with her left hand. “After I simply regarded on the stars, I used to be a little bit extra energetic. I believed the impact of alcohol would subside, however I did not anticipate that my drunkenness was nonetheless very heavy… Let me sleep too…”
Eliza, who determined to go to mattress, pulled over the quilt and went into the quilt.
This large mattress has just one large quilt, so Su Cheng and Eliza are coated below the identical quilt.
Simply now, when she and Su Cheng had been sleeping in the identical mattress and below the identical quilt, Eliza felt significantly shy and conflicted.
However now, in some way, after mendacity within the quilt, Eliza felt no disgrace and resistance in her coronary heart.
Eliza wished to take again her proper hand that was being held by Su Cheng.
However Su Cheng held on very tight. Regardless of how laborious Eliza tried, she could not pull her hand again.
Seeing that she could not pull her hand again, Eliza had no alternative however to surrender and let Su Cheng maintain her proper hand tightly.
“It is low cost for you… Su Cheng…” Eliza whispered angrily to Su Cheng who was already asleep. “That is the primary time I maintain fingers with a person aside from my father… In your sake of enjoying with me on the year-end dinner tonight and having a superb time with you, I will offer you this valuable’ first hand ‘…”
Eliza sleeps on Su Cheng’s proper hand, and Su Cheng holds Eliza’s proper hand. On this case, if Eliza needs to sleep extra comfortably, she will solely face Su Cheng.
Subsequently, after whispering “complaining” about Su Cheng, Eliza confronted Su Cheng, adjusted her physique posture, modified a extra comfy sleeping place, and closed her eyes.
Su Cheng and Eliza lie in mattress head to head.
Due to their window angle, they did not see a full moon hanging excessive within the night time sky.
Simply now, after they regarded on the stars collectively, the moon was on the opposite facet, in order that they did not see it.
Presently, the total moon has fallen within the course reverse the window on the head of their mattress.
Beams of brilliant moonlight got here in via the window.
——Sprinkled on the fingers of the 2 uncovered and tightly held collectively.
……
……
HMM… my head hurts
It feels just like the solar shines on my eyelids
Is it… Daybreak
How lengthy have I slept
… huh? Unusual… How do I all the time really feel… I appear to be holding one thing
——Su Cheng opened his eyes slowly as he thought so.
After opening his eyes, Su Cheng first noticed the very brilliant room now. A beam of heat sunshine got here in from the window, asserting that Su Cheng was already within the daytime.
After waking up, Su Cheng discovered that he appeared to be holding one thing smooth and heat.
So Su Cheng turned his eyes barely and regarded into his arms.
After casting his eyes into his arms, Su Cheng’s eyes, half closed as a result of he simply wakened, instantly opened vast.
And virtually screamed.
As a result of after casting his eyes into his arms, Su Cheng was shocked to search out what was holding in his arms.
——It is Eliza!
Though he was very drunk final night time, Su Cheng clearly remembered that when he went to mattress final night time, he ought to sleep on Eliza’s left facet and Eliza’s proper facet.
Now, the 2 have modified instructions. Eliza is on Su Cheng’s proper and Su Cheng is on Eliza’s left.
The 2 of them, who didn’t know when to vary their place, had been mendacity on their sides. Su Cheng faces to her proper, whereas Eliza faces to her left.
Su Cheng’s left hand handed via Eliza’s proper shoulder and again and hugged Eliza tightly.
——Su Cheng tightly hooped Eliza along with his left hand and firmly hooped Eliza in his arms.
Not solely that, Su Cheng additionally noticed that his proper hand was clasping with Eliza’s left hand.
——Su Cheng might nonetheless see the 2 fingers he was holding tightly with Eliza. As a result of he was holding too laborious, his bones turned white.
Eliza, who’s firmly held in Su Cheng’s arms, nests her small head in Su Cheng’s proper shoulder socket.
Su Cheng might nonetheless really feel Eliza’s heat breath blowing on his proper shoulder.
Their current posture can not be described as ambiguous.
If any third occasion is current, you’ll really feel that Su Cheng and Eliza have to be an excellent lover or husband and spouse. In any case, they maintain so tightly.
Though women and men had been equal within the British Empire a very long time in the past, the communication between women and men was additionally very free and open.
However it’s not open to the extent that heterosexual buddies can maintain one another so carefully.
Taking a look at Eliza, who was being held in her arms, Su Cheng panicked for a second. He did not know what to do now.
On the identical time, Su Cheng additionally felt that his cheeks had been burning at a really quick pace.
——That is the primary time Su Cheng has held a woman so intimately since he was so outdated, besides along with his mom and Alan.
