Ah?
Crying from her own beating?
Lin Da was greatly surprised; he only intended to teach Lia a lesson and correct her arrogant nature, never did he expect to make her cry.
The moment Dark Whip loosened, Lia kicked him in the stomach.
Lin Da plunged into the bath with a splash, swallowing several mouthfuls of water.
Emerging from the pool, he saw Lia, her eyes red, wiping her tears and clutching her clothes as she headed out.
Seeing Lia's strong reaction, everyone felt a hint of awkwardness as if the joke had gone too far.
They thought they were in for some entertainment but ended up making someone cry instead.
Aiko felt the most guilty; she had been unable to close her mouth from laughter at Lia's embarrassed state, having mentally applauded at least a hundred times.
"Where are you going?" Lin Da called after her, "The Dragon Blood in the pool hasn't been fully absorbed yet."
"I'm going home." Lia, now dressed in her adventurer's garb, was pulling on her socks.
