Granny Li's farm stead, Duan
As her new friend Xiaolian had predicted. Their dinner was brought in by two guards just as it got dark. Liqiu stiffened as the door opened and the light came in from the lamp in the hallway.
She drew back, silently feeling the ground around her for anything that could be used as a weapon.
She did not let down her guards until two guards stepped in with a lamp and lit the lamp hanging by the wall a short distance away from the door
After turning on the old single lamp on the wall the guards instructed them to line up and collected their dinner.
It was nothing much just a piece of round sticky rice ball and water, two guards delivered the basket of rice balls and water
Liqiu who hadn't eaten in days accepted the rice ball gratefully. Her stomach rumbled as soon as the scent of the rice balls enter her nose.
