I really feel bad for Eiji while I shouldn't, dunno what about him that makes him so relatable.
My guess is that Nao knew that Eiji liked her and confessed knowing it very well. Because I can't see this going on with him just being a saint all the time.
Still rooting for Eiji, even though Nao doesn't deserve anything bad
Also as usual thanks for the update, I really don't know what I'd do if you guys decided to drop this because this is legit my favorite drama at the moment
