As expected, Ms. Zhu felt that as a lady of Muyu Peak, meeting a woman who looks more beautiful than herself naturally makes her feel inferior, coupled with the fact that she indeed feels sorry towards Yun Qian... thus she panicked and couldn't speak.
It makes sense.
After realizing her own guilt, she immediately started dissecting her thoughts. The answer was definitely not as bizarre as Miss Lu might have imagined. Although there is indeed some reason for her pretending to "seduce" Xu Chang'an, most of the cause still comes from... Liu Qingluo.
After all, she's the one who personally sent Qingluo into the Immortal Sect.
Qingluo may be self-aware, but it doesn't prevent Ms. Zhu from feeling guilty herself.
She herself knew she had no intention of ruining the relationship between Xu Chang'an and Yun Qian, but being looked at by Yun Qian with that penetrating gaze inexplicably quickened her heartbeat, and she couldn't control it.
'Can't let this continue.'
