WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“You'd rather pay an outsider than deal with me because you think you're too good to owe me anything.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Debt as Social Bonding (Renqing)

In traditional Chinese culture, mutual indebtedness (owing money or favors) cements relationships; adamantly refusing to owe someone can be interpreted as an aggressive boundary that signals contempt or a refusal to associate.
