His Captive Grace — Grain of Mercy

Alright The medicine seems to work well. Why Who told you to skip meals?

No, sir. I just couldn't eat. Couldn't eat? You dumped it down the drain.

Tell me Who gave you the nerve to play tricks right under my nose? Sir,

please forgive me, I'll eat it all. I'll eat whatever you say. Don't lock me up, I know I was wrong.

But some mistakes aren't wiped clean with tears and kneeling. So scared of this? It's a nutrient shot.

You've gone days without eating. Your body's this weak. No, but you said—

Today's shot just keeps you alive. After all, if my little darling starves, where would I find one so perfect?

I'd actually give it to you then, and you'd be begging me for the next dose. Next time, if there's even a grain left, I'll take it as you wanting me to feed you.

If there's any left next time, Miss Xiang, please eat. Miss Xiang, please rest. The doctor says you need a change of scenery.

It's too stuffy here. Not good for recovery. The upstairs bedroom has been redone. It has windows.

You can see the garden. You'll stay there from now on. I can grant you three wishes. Anything within reason.

You can ask for that too.
