Li Qingzhao did not get up right away.
She lay flat on the bed, her long, limpid eyes staring blankly at the exquisite ceiling above her for a full three seconds.
Then—
Everything that had happened in the neighboring mansion yesterday surged back into her mind like a breached flood.
The floodgates of memory burst open!
She remembered how she had shamelessly taken the initiative to visit.
She remembered the table full of delicacies she had never seen before, and that fifty-three-proof Flying Fairy Maotai that had gone straight to her head.
And even more, she remembered...
How, emboldened by that domineering liquor, she had rested her cheek on one hand, cast seductive glances at Young Master Jiang, and spoken those outrageously bold words!
"Qingzhao is but a humble willow of a woman. I wonder... might I have the honor of catching Young Master Jiang's eye?~"
"Oh, heavens..."
Li Qingzhao pulled up the blanket and buried her burning face beneath it.

When she had said those words under the influence of alcohol, she had felt exhilarated and had not thought anything was wrong at all.
But now that she had sobered up, reason had reclaimed the high ground.
Remembering how wantonly she had acted, actively seducing a man like some woman from a pleasure house, Li Qingzhao felt suffocating shame wash over her!
Though she was free-spirited and unconstrained by trifles,
she was, after all, still an unmarried young girl who had never even held a man's hand.
To go straight for the jugular with a stranger she had only met once and say such brazen words practically offering herself to his bed...
If word got out, would she still have any claim to her reputation as Bianliang's foremost talented woman?!
