WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“How could you suspect me? I would never betray my own brother!”
💡 Cultural Insight: Brotherhood and loyalty (xiongdi / jiang yiqi)

In Chinese social circles and 'jianghu' culture, 'brotherhood' denotes the highest standard of moral loyalty. Harming or betraying a 'brother' is regarded as an egregious moral failing; thus, invoking brotherhood serves as the speaker's strongest defense to assert innocence.
