"Replying to my master, the woman we just met is my junior sister, Qin Guchun, the same one who poisoned Weng An," Xiu Cuicui said, her expression turning a shade dimmer, "I was just reminded of the past and felt a bit resentful."
```
```
"Back then, you feared returning to your sect because Weng An might plot against you. Now that you've encountered a fellow sect member, have you ever thought about telling them the truth about what happened that day and asking the sect to support you?" Bai Ruozhu asked tentatively.
