WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“How could you call me that? I care about you as my real family, so stop misinterpreting my motives.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Fictive Kinship (Jie/Didi)

In Chinese culture, calling someone 'Jie' (older sister) creates a sacred moral boundary of family-like purity and loyalty, which makes any insinuation of perverse or untoward intent deeply offensive.
