The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 363

Daniel's reply caused Aiden to roll her eyes disdainfully.

"Stop talking nonsense, you're never serious!"

"You really do have vision problems, Aiden. You seriously need treatment. Look at me, every pore on my body exudes the essence of a serious man."

"Get lost!" Aiden rolled her eyes again, "If you're what passes for a serious man, then there are no perverts in this world."

"Aiden, how can you know I have a problem without having tried me? How about we book a hotel room tonight, and you can see for yourself if I’m okay?"

"Get lost!" Aiden swung the old tree root lightly at Daniel once again. Learning from her previous mistake, she aimed for his back, not his thigh.

But then, with a loud "smack," the root seemed to steer itself and, inexplicably, landed on Daniel's buttocks again.

Brittany witnessed it and immediately flew into a rage.

"Have you two no shame?"

If the first strike was an accident, this second one couldn't possibly have been unintentional! Since Aiden had aimed properly after the prior mishap, it should have been impossible for the root to hit the wrong target. Yet, the old root had ended up on Daniel's backside again? Something was definitely off, and it wasn't with Aiden—it was that old tree root!

Realizing this, Aiden fixed her gaze on Daniel with her beautiful eyes wide and asked, "Are you the one with the problem?"

"How do I have a problem?"

"Why else would my two strikes both land on your backside? My first intention was to hit your thigh, the second was your back. I can’t land a proper hit if this old tree root keeps veering off to your butt. What's going on with that?"
