"I will go with you to see Li Niang later."
"All right, Sister Li must also be very happy when she sees you," Yue Ran answered naturally.
The leader was relieved to see that the attitude of the young woman in white was not unusual at all. Later, the three of them went to pay a visit to Li Niang at her home. Seeing that the three young women were like sisters, conversing and laughing in a normal manner without any exaggeration or effort and recounting their old memories, the leader was at ease.
It seemed that his suspicions appeared to be unjustified. He may simply be overly paranoid because of the incident caused by the evil witch that made everyone more or less tense.
On the way back to the troupe, Yue Ran was asked by the leader if she would like to perform on stage during the day of the Immortal Sacrifice Ceremony.
Yue Ran, as a matter of course, pretended to be happy, surprised, and shy before humbly refusing the offer several times as if she was scared.
