The next day, at Duke Dingguo Mansion, Qin Liuxi arrived as scheduled.
However, upon reaching Jiang Wenyan's courtyard, she happened to see a servant dragging a woman away, her hair done up in a married woman's style.
Qin Liuxi laid eyes on the woman, with large features and sparse eyebrows, a plump chin marred by a scar. This woman, though outwardly kind, harbored a venomous heart, skilled in using her superficial warmth to mask her inner darkness.
The woman, looking rather deranged, seemed to sense someone watching her. She looked over and upon meeting Qin Liuxi's gaze, felt a sudden panic, quickly lowered her head, and allowed herself to be led away without a word.
During the acupuncture session, Qin Liuxi learned from Jiang Wenyan who the recently dragged away woman was – she was the very person who had secretly acted against her from the beginning, her husband's wet nurse.
