Her master was missing, and her sect was on the verge of collapse.
The sect's mountain had been divided up and stripped bare.
As the group prepared to leave the mountain, carrying pots, bowls, and pans, their eldest senior sister Ling Miao, the youngest in age but longest in seniority, decided she had to say a few parting words:
"Junior sisters and brothers, once you're down the mountain, make sure you find honest work! Don't let the glittering world down there dazzle you!"
She spoke earnestly, but everyone burst out laughing.
"Little Ling Miao, you're the one who needs to remember that most."
"The handsome men down there are the best liars. Be careful, and don't get fooled by a pretty face."
"As if I ever would. I'm an honest person."
Ling Miao declared righteously, "I'm going down the mountain to uphold justice, not to chase after handsome men. I'll carry on our sect's legacy!"

Down the mountain.
She wandered into a brothel by mistake.
After accidentally stumbling into Wen Suyu's bedroom, Ling Miao wiped away a nosebleed, snuck a few peeks, and said timidly, "Good sir, this is my first time down the mountain. I don't know much about the world."
"I've never seen chest muscles like yours. Can I touch them a few times?"

Wen Suyu truly thought he must be insane to have agreed to so many of Ling Miao's unreasonable demands.
Ling Miao: "Your hands are so big. Can I feel them?"
Wen Suyu: "..."
Ling Miao: "You smell so nice. Can I get a little closer?"
Wen Suyu: "..."
Ling Miao: "Can I kiss you? Can I use my tongue?"
Wen Suyu: "Try sticking it out and see what happens! I'll bite you."
