Most likely you may find some keys begin to stick once the liquid dries if any of the liquid made it under the keycaps. If any liquid got through the gap around the Trackpad especially by the Keyboard, it could cause issues as there is a cable connection on the Trackpad right there that very often gets damaged by liquid seeping through. Otherwise from your description it will probably be Ok. Any damage has already been done and once any corrosion sets in you get a definitive answer. Depends on your luck.
