WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Don't act as his shield; if he has the guts, let him face me himself.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Direct Confrontation vs. Intermediaries

While Chinese culture frequently employs third parties to resolve conflict smoothly, demanding someone 'come say it themselves' directly shames the offender for evading responsibility and lacking courage.
