But Linda treated Chrona like a strict father, which made Monica afraid of her!
All I saw was Chrona sniffle, and the little pearl fell out with a whoosh. She wiped it with her sleeve while making a whimpering sound.
It's like a teacher scolding a naughty elementary school student!
Krona, who was incredibly proud and sharp-tongued in front of Monica, was brought to tears by Linda's few words!
Ai Ke was somewhat flustered.
Although she didn't seem to care about Chrona, seeing Chrona cry, Eko acted like a 'mother' whose conscience had been awakened, hugging Chrona and whispering words of comfort:
"Don't cry, it'll be so embarrassing if Monica sees you."
Linda snorted coldly.
"Ignore her. Only then will she understand that crying won't solve anything!"
Linda knew that Chrona was an orphan. After arriving at Xueyan, she probably regarded him and Eko, who were older, as 'parents' figures, thinking that crying loudly would solve all the problems.
Out of sympathy for Chrona's past, Linda had been quite indulgent towards her in her early years. But now, Linda must take responsibility and guide Chrona to become a mature adventurer.
"Adventurers only shed blood, never tears."
Crying solves nothing.
"Look at Leah, Eko, Isa... have they ever cried? No. Facing reality and taking firm steps forward is what an adventurer should do."
Linda crossed her arms and stared indifferently at Chrona: "If you keep crying, you'll disappoint people."
Upon hearing this, Chrona vigorously wiped her face, her eyes red and swollen as she tried to hold them back.
Monica waved her little fist behind Linda, cheering for Chrona.
Through this period of time together, Monica could sense that the other person was not a bad person at heart.
He's just a bit foul-mouthed and can't stand losing at games... Putting those aside, he's actually a nice person.
Krona gave her a limited edition white cat doll, and the bunny head bag was full of snacks, which she would take out and share, generously giving her half of them.
The two even made a promise to go to the Magic Game Center together when they had time.
There were too many people in that kind of place; Monica didn't dare go there herself.
But Chrona declared confidently that it was her territory, and that Monica could go there and have fun as she pleased, with all the expenses covered.
Monica, realizing that Chrona wasn't inherently bad, hoped that Linda could forgive her.
"I...I'm not crying anymore." At this moment, Chrona took the handkerchief that Eko handed her and rubbed her nose.
Linda's expression softened slightly.
"Oh, right."
He picked up the sketchbook again and said, "Although there hasn't been much growth, this 'Krena' is much better than she was at the beginning."
"I personally quite like this picture book."
Linda smiled and reached out to rub Chrona's head, saying, "When you get back, listen to Eko and Lia, and don't stay up late anymore, okay?"
The little pearl that Chrona had managed to hold back finally fell out again.
Only Linda takes care of her; Aiko and Lia basically let her roam free! Sometimes they don't even call her for meals!
Krona nodded her little head and hummed in agreement.
"That's great, Captain forgives you." Monica smiled sweetly and took Chrona's hand.
Chrona burst into laughter through her tears, "Mmm!"
Seeing this heartwarming scene, Ai Ke's expression relaxed, and she even felt a little happy.
Eko, realizing what was happening, was startled: Strange, why would she care so much about Chrona?
She's just a spoiled little devil, what does it have to do with her!
Indeed, stupidity is contagious.
After spending a lot of time with Lia and Chrona, she also became a member of the Snow Goose's idiot nest.
'We can't stay in Xueyan any longer. The chicken soup plan is bound to succeed. We'll win over Linda today!'
Aiko's eyes darted around, and she touched her lower abdomen, muttering to herself, "Ah, I seem to be a little hungry. Does anyone want to grab something to eat?"
"I just happened to cook some chicken soup, which is good for the stomach. Drinking chicken soup after drinking alcohol is good for your health."
Of the four, only Linda had been drinking.
Linda wasn't too confident in Aiko's cooking skills and said, "Maybe... forget it, I'm not that hungry yet."
“I’m not the same person I used to be.” Ai Ke grabbed Linda’s wrist aggressively. “You absolutely have to try this. The chicken soup is made with a level 15 Black-boned Chicken King, which is extremely rare. One of them costs a thousand gold!”
"I want to drink!" Chrona raised her little hand.
Monica's mouth was also watering. But because she wasn't familiar with Aiko, she was too embarrassed to say she wanted some, and stood awkwardly to the side.
"Then let's eat something." Linda smiled helplessly and pulled Monica to sit down on the sofa.
good!
Aiko mentally gave the two little girls a thumbs up.
She took out the lunchbox that she had prepared beforehand.
This is a box divided into four sections by partitions.
Only the piece facing Linda had the addition of spring sunflower, which has a strong astringent effect.
Her own, and those of Chrona and others, are all just normal inspirational quotes.
The black-boned chicken soup has a beautiful white color and an enticing aroma.
The eyes of the people present lit up.
Linda looked at Aike in surprise. In just one month, Aike's cooking skills had improved a lot.
I used to be a lazy dog...
"I'll serve you some." Ai Ke, like a gentle and virtuous wife, tucked her blonde hair behind her ear to avoid spilling it into the chicken soup.
She took out a soup bowl from her spatial ring, filled it with chicken soup, and placed it in front of Linda.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
The chicken soup smelled delicious, and Linda took a big gulp.
