“You country bumpkin, this is fashion, understand? The elegant socialite look is already outdated. Women today are independent and self-reliant, so our clothing should reflect a spirit of strength and self-improvement. And since I, Jin Luoluo, am the leading trendsetter of the Chu Yun Kingdom, it’s only natural that I lead the fashion world.”
Xiao Che was completely confused by what she was saying, though he did catch that Jin Luoluo was shamelessly praising herself.
Jin Luoluo took a sip of tea and continued:
“Even if I explained it, you wouldn’t understand. In short, my bold and flamboyant fashion sense is beyond your comprehension. Let me give you a piece of advice: don’t mistake ignorance for individuality. If you want to criticize my clothes, go home and study fashion first.”
Hearing her belittle his taste, the veins on Xiao Che’s forehead began throbbing.
However, now was not the time to argue about such things. He absolutely could not let her divert the conversation away from the main issue.
In a deep voice, he said:
“Jin Luoluo, as a respectable woman from a good family, and as a woman who already has a fiancé, how could you dress so revealingly in front of so many men and perform such indecent dances? In the end, you even caused a huge disturbance. It was truly offensive to public morals and decency. Our royal family has always been dignified and proper. No woman of the royal household has ever done something so outrageous. Do you feel no shame whatsoever?”
Jin Luoluo rolled her eyes and lazily swung her leg, stroking her chin as if pondering a serious question.
“Huh? Which law in the Chu Yun Kingdom says I’m not allowed to dance or dress the way I did? Find it and show it to me. You can’t, can you? Then what gives you the right to interfere? As for your royal family’s dignity, sorry, but I haven’t married into it yet, so I really can’t be bothered worrying about your reputation.”
Her utterly unapologetic response only made Xiao Che even angrier.
She seemed to treat shamelessness as a personality trait and completely ignored society’s opinions.
“Do you realize how much damage that dance has done to your reputation? In many people’s eyes, you’re a flirtatious, seductive woman who deliberately tempts men. By acting this way, you’ve not only lowered your own status, you’ve made others look down on you as well.”
Xiao Che was so furious that he spoke without thinking.
A flirtatious woman?
Jin Luoluo’s eyes widened.
He actually called her that.
That damned bastard!
“You’re calling me a flirt? How exactly am I a flirt? I simply performed a dance and displayed my skills. Does that make me one? If you look at the world through lustful eyes, you’d probably get excited even looking at a sow. What does that have to do with my dance? The thing that’s seductive isn’t my dancing—it’s the rotten, lustful hearts of men like you. You’re the ones who are lecherous, yet you push the blame onto women. You’re all a bunch of hypocrites who pretend to be honorable!”
