The word "play" was used cleverly.
Eudora portrayed herself as a playgirl, so she self-deprecated to make Colbert think she was promiscuous.
"You're lying. The first time you accidentally entered Philomel Apartment, you were still a virgin!"
"Oh, come on! It's just a thin layer of membrane; every time I change partners, I go to the hospital to replace it. It's all about excitement. You know nothing! You're so boring for not knowing such a simple thing."
Eudora brushed away Colbert's hand and turned to face the bookshelf, pretending to look for a book.
In reality, her lips twitched slightly, and she secretly sighed in relief.
"Fuck! I've already portrayed myself as shameless and lacking self-respect. I hope this man doesn't actually find me attractive."
"Such a shameless woman!"
Just as Eudora was secretly speculating in her heart, Colbert's deep voice suddenly sounded behind her.
