Which is appropriate?

'You hit me real hard'
'I'm sorry but you asked/you'd asked for it'
Is past or past perfect more appropriate here if the incident being talked about happened ,any years ago. Thanks.

The Simple Past is usually used when the sequence of events is clear, as it is here, The supposed asking obviously came before the hitting.
