[Much experience? Not at all but what Huaisang does have is a quick mind and willingness to adapt to new situations. Sure, he's kissed a few courtesans and even slept with one or two over the years but it's not an area of his life he's put much focus on. Honoring his brother and his sect by bringing Jin Guangyao to justice has been his priority for the past decade.

As for the perceived judgment, that's a little harder for Huaisang to take in this context, at least. His self-confidence has improved since taking over leadership of the Qinghe Nie Sect, contrary to what the rest of the cultivational world believes, but he still feels self-conscious and shy sometimes.

Huaisang bows his head a little, averting his eyes, a faint blush rising in his cheeks. He swallows hard before stammering out a response.]

Ah... Thank you, Sect Leader Jiang. I think.

[He doesn't make any motion to pull away but he does glance down at his bracelet witha frown.]

...It didn't work. I thought for sure that would do it that time. Maybe... Maybe it's broken.

[But he and Jiang Cheng sure did kiss. Does it count if it didn't... well. count?]
