GoodReadJust that her body was all water.
Alexis looked down and saw that she had fallen into a small stream. The water was not deep, only up to her
ankles.
Quinn sat in the water, pitifully staring at him.
Their hair was all wet, hanging in front of her chest, water was dripping down her chin; and her already tattered
robe was now wet as well. The man stared at her, his eyes darkening.
Unaware of his darkening gaze, Quinn looked at him with a face of innocence.
As the wind blew, she shivered from the cold.
Alexander rubbed his temples in frustration, reached out to pull her out of the water, glanced at her soaked
bathrobe, and took off his coat. Alexander said, "Take it off."
Quinn bit her lip, and in front of him, she took off the robe. He tightened his face, put the coat on her, and
buttoned it up for her. As he buttoned, his fingers becsomewhat uncontrollable.
Alexander closed his eyes, took a deep breath, then stepped back. "Button it up yourself."
His change in attitude startled Quinn. She thought Alexander was blaming her for running around and falling into
the water. Quinn quickly buttoned up, walked up to him, pulled his hand.

Quinn sat beside him at a loss, her face filled with guilt.
Alexander turned to her and said, "This water is drinkable."
Quinn paused. Only after his reminder did she realize that her throat was so dry it felt like it was about to catch
fire.

She reached out, scooped up water from the stream, and gulped it down.
After drinking the water, she felt hungry.
Her stomach growled; and she turned her head, looking at Alexander with resentment.
The expression on her face was similar to the two dogs waiting for food in the villa, almost identical.
"There's nothing to eat." Alexander ruthlessly shattered her illusions.
Quinn sat on the ground, feeling helpless and powerless.
Alexander sighed, glanced around, and suddenly noticed a small patch of knee-high grass ahead.
He stood up abruptly. "Wait here for me, don't move, got it?"
Quinn nodded.

With her assurance, Alexander walked towards the patch of grass. He took out his knife and swiftly cut a bundle,
stripping off the leaves, and returned holding the stalks.
He gathered the verdant stems and set them before Quinn. After washing them in the water of the nearby brook,
he offered them to her, saying, "Here, eat."
Without a second thought, Quinn

After finishing one stem, she gestured, "What is this?"
Alexander handed her another one. "It's water bamboo."
She didn't understand.
