try s instead of n if you want to enter subroutines ..

s [expr] Single step. Executes until the beginning of another
statement, descending into subroutine calls. If an
expression is supplied that includes function calls, it
too will be single-stepped.

n [expr] Next. Executes over subroutine calls, until the beginning of
the next statement. If an expression is sup­
plied that includes function calls, those functions will
be executed with stops before each statement.
