Chapter 184 (1/2)

Hearing Su Cheng's whisper, Eliza was stunned.

It's the first time Eliza has seen this man's fragile side since she met Su Cheng.

Even in the face of such a dangerous situation that the whole army was defeated and the commander-in-chief was killed, the man did not show a trace of cowardice and bravely and decisively stood up to preside over the overall situation.

In the Wei River annihilation war, he personally went to the front line to command the officers and men of the third army to cross the river. Even in such a dangerous situation of danger and flesh and blood, the man didn't step back and continued to calmly command the attack and withdrawal of the third army.

Although she didn't get along with Su Cheng for a long time and only fought side by side with him once, Eliza seemed to be used to Su Cheng's calm, brave and resourceful appearance, which attracted countless young people of pandragon.

But now, the man holding her hand was like a fragile child, holding her hand tightly, as if afraid that Eliza would disappear from him.

Looking at Su Cheng, who has completely lost her mature appearance in the past, this strong contrast makes Eliza's heart ripple, and it seems that a string has been stirred in her heart.

... it should be alcohol. It is said that under the effect of alcohol, drunk people will take off their usual disguise

——Eliza whispered in her heart.

Eliza guessed that perhaps it was because of the effect of alcohol that Su Cheng revealed his fragile appearance that he might never show to others

”Dad... Mom... Where are you...” Su Cheng whispered again.

After hearing Su Cheng's whisper, the ripples in Eliza's heart could not help getting bigger again.

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 soft at this time.

When Eliza wiped away the tears from Su Cheng's eyes, Su Cheng's whisper continued——

”Alan... Where are you... I only have your... Only family left... Carol... Deng Jiaer...”

One name after another came out of Su Cheng's mouth.

And Eliza is listening quietly.

Although she doesn't know Alan and Deng Jiaer very well, Eliza also knows that these two people, like Carol, live under the same roof as Su Cheng.

Alan, Carol and Deng Jiaer... These three people should be the most important people of Su Cheng.

Just as Eliza thought so, she thought that no one's name would come out of Su Cheng's mouth——

”... Ellie... Sha... Where are you... Where...”

Eliza looked at Su Cheng in amazement.

She never thought Su Cheng would call her name.

Eliza reacted quickly after a brief period of consternation.

Eliza bit her teeth, then leaned down and whispered to Su Cheng:

”I'm here, Eliza is here, don't be afraid, Su Cheng, Eliza is here, I'm here.”

As Eliza spoke, she also clenched the hand that Su Cheng was holding her right hand.

Su Cheng seemed to hear Eliza's words. His originally curled up body slowly relaxed and stretched out.

And the faint color of fear on his face slowly dissipated.

However, the hand holding Eliza was tighter.

Looking at Su Cheng, who seemed to calm down, Eliza smiled helplessly with some joy, and then whispered:

”It seems that you really regard me as an important friend... Really, we have only known each other for more than three months...”

Then Eliza felt her head sinking.

”How dizzy...” Eliza whispered while holding her head with her left hand. ”When I just looked at the stars, I was a little more energetic. I thought the effect of alcohol would subside, but I didn't expect that my drunkenness was still very heavy... Let me sleep too...”

Eliza, who decided to go to bed, pulled over the quilt and went into the quilt.

This big bed has only one big quilt, so Su Cheng and Eliza are covered under the same quilt.

Just now, when she and Su Cheng were sleeping in the same bed and under the same quilt, Eliza felt particularly shy and conflicted.

But now, somehow, after lying in the quilt, Eliza felt no shame and resistance in her heart.

Eliza wanted to take back her right hand that was being held by Su Cheng.

But Su Cheng held on very tight. No matter how hard Eliza tried, she couldn't pull her hand back.

Seeing that she couldn't pull her hand back, Eliza had no choice but to give up and let Su Cheng hold her right hand tightly.

”It's cheap for you... Su Cheng...” Eliza whispered angrily to Su Cheng who was already asleep. ”This is the first time I hold hands with a man other than my father... For your sake of playing with me at the year-end dinner tonight and having a good time with you, I'll give you this precious' first hand '...”

Eliza sleeps on Su Cheng's right hand, and Su Cheng holds Eliza's right hand. In this case, if Eliza wants to sleep more comfortably, she can only face Su Cheng.
