Exhale and don't do it again. Bleach is usually Calcium Hypchlorite and water (usually 5% solution), like the brand Clorox. What you will inhale is a mild chlorine gas that liquid bleach gives off. It will convert to hydrochloric acid and irritate throat and nose. You'll get a sore throat. I would drink some water. This will dilute it and send it to the stomach where it proably will combine with something quickly and be harmless. I have never heard of anyone being concerned about inhaling liquid bleach. It is not very volatile and shouldn't be enough of a problem to be concerned with unless you do it for a long period of time. I have personally inhaled the gas from bleach tablets used in a swimming pool which is much more concentrated and a bigger problem. If you are force to inhale it very long, I would go to a hospital. If you got just a wiff, you'll get over it.
Seek medical attention ASAP. While not always apparent, damage can continue after the fact and cause problems long term.
If you had a chemical inhalation immediately leave the contaminated area and call the local emergency number. Chemical inhalation can lead to a breathing emergency.
