I think she was realizing he was staring at her, not actually flirting back.
Still, for her to not at all be shrinking back in fear is incredible. Ling Qi has come so far.

I would love to see Meng Dan and Bao Qian meeting each other.
Bao Qian: It's a pleasure to finally meet you, sir Meng.
Meng Dan: Likewise, it's a pleasure to finally meet Ling Qi's business partner.
Bao Qian: *Narrows eyes*.

That's the point, she's gonna get kudos because we had to not "insult" her gramps and give concessions just so she wouldn't be a giant quarrelsome dickhead in territory and proceedings she has no say and is a guest in.
Grumpifying!

LQ: I'm a good and honest student of the Dreaming Way.
MD: Who's teaching you?
LQ: Nobody important. Just, eh... The Arch Heretic of the Dreaming Way. He's not at all biased though!
Obviously LQ does her own investigating but it's pretty funny she can get away saying what she did. I love it when she does the fey shtick.

Ok. Thank you. So we've MADE a PSA but we haven't MASTERED it yet. Still wild we have 2/3 the amount of advanced insights required.
Is it possible to gain more advanced insights than 3 or....
Same with just normal insights.

We have a cap at... I think 6+2*our level inside green for normal insights, don't think we have any for advanced green
No I think at the end there she realized that she was staring at him. Hence her embarrassment and expectation of Sixiang teasing her.

My read:
He stared at sudden, assumedly beautiful, "Thank you" smile, covered it up with his classic amused look, then LQ kept looking at him to find more sincere feelings, and he looked away because maybe he has them and is bashful.
A cute moment, in the also negotiating a snitch agreement to avoid explosive international fallout way.
More than a little bit manipulative on LQ's part, though, and if LQ has feelings to return for him, her "continued observation" moment is where I'd expect to hear a snip of them, since we're in her head. Silent as it is, it's hollow like she's waiting to feel something, and we get *his* reaction breaking eye contact.

I think you're mistaken: The Dreaming Way is what the Weilu made of the Pure One's lessons, and even if it hads probably drifted in time, the Meng keep to it. The Hui spinned a variant of it called the Pure Way, but that's almost certainly derived from a corrupted interpretation of the Palace of One's ascencion.
The fair option is winning handily, so I can forsake pragmatism in favour of principle.

I find that a little overly pessimistic. Qi herself has stated that she finds him handsome before so I think the simpler thing was just that she was checking him out.
As we can see here, it looks like she realized she was out of it a bit looking at him, and was expecting to be teased by Sixiang for checking him out. Sixiang wouldn't tease her for feeling nothing for a person.

Out of curiousity. Other than spite can anyone give me a justification for Pushing back against the Flowers?

The better our favorability with the White Sky at the end of the summit, the better it is for us long term... I guess
