WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Don't worry about me getting old; everyone on the team has been worked to the bone even more than I have.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Modesty Through Collective Hardship

In Chinese workplace and social culture, when someone points out your personal sacrifice or fatigue (like getting white hair), it is customary to deflect attention to the group's shared effort rather than accepting individual pity.
