WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“You are making a humiliating scene; there is no point trying to reason with someone behaving like a lunatic.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Fear of Public Disgrace (Diu Lian)

Making a scene in front of a crowd (当着这么多人面) violates Chinese public decorum norms; accusing someone of '撒泼' severely undermines their social standing and legitimacy.
