"There, now you're as good as new!" declared Li Yuilan, gently rubbing the cheek of Xie Qing, where a small wound had been.
She looked pleased that she had managed to heal the man's wound and now sat beside him, swinging her legs in the air while perched on a high stool.
Zhang Mei merely cast a silent glance at the two and muttered something under her breath before continuing her work.

"Festival?"
Xie Qing raised an eyebrow, sipping tea on the balcony. Beside him sat Li Yuilan in her usual white, closed dress, smiling gently and "looking at him." Well, "looking" was not quite accurate, but it seemed as if she was staring at him.
"Yes. The festival is called 'Big Moon Day,' when the moon is at its largest for the year. So our sect celebrates it with as much enthusiasm as the New Year," explained Li Yuilan, giggling and adding, "The festival features top-quality wine, dancing, food, and the like. It starts in the evening and lasts until dawn."
