Xiaoling skeptically held her chopsticks and grabbed the piece of meat along with some rice. Hou Hai only started eating after ensuring she had eaten what he offered her. As she continued to eat, she felt slightly dizzy. She set her chopsticks aside and tried to reach for the water.
Hou Hai saw as she struggled to grab the jug since her vision was dissociating. She gave up after a few times of struggle, laying back in her chair. Her body felt like it was shaking.
"What's wrong?" Hou Hai asked in a condescending tone. He reached for the jug and poured water for her, pushing the glass to the table's edge to make it easy for her.
Xiaoling frowned in confusion as she slowly grabbed the glass. As she drank the water, she felt Hou Hai's words and actions were polar opposites. She set the glass aside and looked up at him. She rubbed her eyes out of frustration at not being able to see correctly.
