WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“Please don't take what I said about favors seriously; you don't owe me anything.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Renqing (Relational Favors)

In Chinese culture, bringing up '人情' (reciprocal favor) can feel heavy or transactional; explicitly dismissing it as a joke relieves social debt and prevents discomfort.
