Mia sat on the edge of the lounge chair, while Ask straightened up and poured some sunscreen into his palm.
"Hey~" As soon as his palm touched her, Mia twisted her body and nimbly avoided Ask's clutches.
"What are you doing?" Ask was puzzled.
"Itchy." Xiaomia said in a soft voice, with tears welling up in her eyes.
"No way, your skin is so sensitive?" Ask touched it again, but Mia twisted her body again and quickly dodged.
Ask: …
"Little sister, there's something wrong with you." He put down the bottle of sunscreen and said seriously.
"Ah?" Xiaomia turned around blankly.
"Your skin is so sensitive to external touch, this might become your weakness!" Ask pondered.
"That's not the case. It has nothing to do with that." Mia lowered her head and said softly, "I don't know why, but when you touched me, Ask, I felt my whole body and face getting hot. I wanted to get away from you quickly... Captain, am I sick?"
"Ah, yes." Ask said seriously, "You must go and see Nora as soon as possible."
Mia: …
She left inexplicably. So Ask lay down again and closed his eyes for a short nap when he heard a steady voice next to him.
"Isn't this bad? Captain."
"What do you mean?" Ask opened his eyes and saw Eleanor standing beside the recliner, looking down at him.
"Mia probably has some feelings for you." Eleanor pointed at Mia's back in the distance and said, "Since she has come to you in various ways to confess her feelings, why don't you at least respond properly? Acting crazy and stupid is not gentlemanly behavior."
"I'm not a gentleman. Besides, that's just your guess." Ask sat up and silently took the bottle of sunscreen. "If she didn't mean that, wouldn't it be awkward for me to reply to her seriously?"
"It's just a guess, but my intuition tells me it's right." Eleanor watched him squeeze the sunscreen into his palm and quickly whispered, "No, I can apply it myself."
"Your hands can reach your back?" Ask was a little surprised and put the bottle down again.
"No, I have a towel." Eleanor took down the white towel hanging on her shoulders and demonstrated, "I can apply sunscreen on the towel, then hold both ends with both hands and rub it back and forth on my back to evenly distribute it."
"Witty," said Ask.
Eleanor was silent for a moment, then she said casually, as if carelessly:
"But since you've squeezed it out, help me apply it."
"Then sit down."
"Um."
Eleanor sat on the edge of the lounge chair with her back to him, and pulled her blonde hair into a ponytail around her neck and to the front, revealing her smooth white back.
Ask was casually helping her apply the cream evenly when he suddenly noticed that her straps seemed a little loose.
Uh, no way...
"Okay?" Noticing that his hand had stopped, Eleanor was about to turn around and stand up, but sure enough, the strap broke with a snap, and the equipment that could not bear the weight fell off immediately.
Before Ask had time to close his eyes, Eleanor covered her chest with her hands as fast as lightning, and then the light of will flowed, completely covering it.
