Goading her

Gu Xingyu smiled gently as she walked over to the door of the prison where she turned the key into the lock and then opened the small gate. 

"It just so happens that I have some braised pork here. If you do not mind then you can eat this, little girl," Gu Xingyu said to Gu Mu whose eyes almost popped out of the sockets of her eyes when she saw Gu Xingyu pulling out a bowl of rice that had been placed inside the lunch box. 

The meat was glistening and the rice grains were filled with a lustre that Gu Mu had never seen before, no in fact she had seen rice grains as good as these but after spending the entire day in hunger, she felt like she had never eaten rice as shiny as the one that filled up the bowl.
