In her current state, swimming was impossible, so Shang Dongyuan directly carried her to the nearby spa bath.
The space was not large, and it was filled with dicinal bathwater.
Afraid she might catch a cold, it was better to soak first before coming ashore.
Chu Xiaoge cried her heart out, and just as she finally quieted down, the mont she was put down and saw another pool in front of her, she started crying again with a loud wail.
This ti, she cried even louder.
Shang Dongyuan had never seen a woman who could cry this much before...
He initially wanted to yell at her to stop crying, but seeing her tear-streaked little face, looking as pitiable as a kitten, it truly tugged at his heartstrings!
After a mont of silence, he still pulled her into his arms, gently patting her back, and softly comforted her, "Alright, alright."
"Sob sob sob... "
He didn’t know how long she cried, but it wasn’t until Chu Xiaoge was exhausted that she sniffed, sat up straight, and left Shang Dongyuan’s embrace.
She had been crying for so long, and Shang Dongyuan had stayed by her side the entire ti.
Chu Xiaoge hadn’t expected this at all.
"Had enough crying?" Shang Dongyuan’s cold voice ca through, and it was clear that he was extrely displeased.
The good swimming plan was ruined by Chu Xiaoge’s crying, anyone would be unhappy about that.
Chu Xiaoge sniffled, wiped the corners of her eyes, lowered her head, and murmured, "Mmm..."
"You’re really foolish. With here, do you think I’d let you drown?" Shang Dongyuan looked at her with disdain.
Wasn’t she quite gutsy before? Why was she suddenly so afraid of dying?
Chu Xiaoge, "..."
Lowering her head, Chu Xiaoge nervously twisted the towel that had unknowingly returned to her.
"I’m afraid of water." She murmured, unwilling to say it but having no choice.
She was definitely not foolish...
Upon hearing this, Shang Dongyuan turned around, his gaze deepening as he looked at her.
"Afraid of water?"
"Mmm." Chu Xiaoge nodded her head and suddenly chuckled. "I don’t like the feeling of being enveloped and swallowed by water; it always feels like I would suffocate..."
Shang Dongyuan listened in silence, a sense of guilt and remorse growing in his heart.
He had dragged her into the water without understanding anything just now.
Seeing her cry like that, she must have been really scared, right?
Look at what he had done...
After a brief silence, Shang Dongyuan took Chu Xiaoge’s hand and led her into the dicinal spa bath.
"It’s just water, what’s there to be afraid of?" Shang Dongyuan said sternly when he saw her flinch a little.
Being afraid of water wasn’t a good habit; it would cause many obstacles in her life.
Shang Dongyuan now wanted to completely cure her of this weakness.
Chu Xiaoge walked down the steps, looking around.
It was another large pool, oval-shaped, with water constantly flowing in and out, maintaining the cleanliness of the water.
The water wasn’t clear, slightly yellowish, and had a faint dicinal fragrance.
Even more astonishing, there were countless rose petals floating on the surface!
Not to the point of being completely covered, but still plenty!
When she stepped in, the water was pleasantly warm.
Chu Xiaoge was puzzled; she had felt hot by the swimming pool earlier, but stepping in here, the temperature instantly dropped. It must feel very comfortable soaking in the water, right?
She really didn’t know how Shang Dongyuan managed to find these places; so parts were cold while others were hot on the sa site.
