Wait, that was the wrong one. This one is better.

[...Why is Di Feisheng sending him a-- Oh. Oh no.]

That wasn't for you! Why are you responding? Just delete it and don't say anything.

Better yet, keep it and be grateful. It still doesn't need to be remarked on.

[Crawling into a shaoye-shaped hole and digging deeper.]

[wife_material]

[There is no amount of digging in the world that will save shaoye now. Grateful?]

It was sent to me. Why wouldn't I respond?

Is this what you do at work all day?

[detective_xiaobao]

[But digging is all he has.]

You should have known by context that it wasn't for you. If you received a letter about matters that didn't involve you, would you respond to that to?

I do plenty at work. Am I not allowed to capture a picturesque moment now and then?

[wife_material]

[Untrue. Clearly he also has a grave karmic burden. Is the picturesque in the room right now?]

I don't see any context. Are you sure you sent it?

Capture and share. Very generous.

[detective_xiaobao]

[Karma doesn't understand how handsome this shaoye is, clearly. He's a treasure, it's right there in the name.]

The context is in the sending itself.

Maybe you should try being more generous once in a while. What's a picture if not for looking at? It would be stranger if I kept it for myself.

[See? He's normal.]

[wife_material]

[Listening and learning so much.]

Then there was no way to know it wasn't a request for my opinion, was there.

Good point.

[Unfortunately, he IS normal just this one time, as well as powerful enough to withstand bullying with a sound ego. It's just that it's very funny.]

[detective_xiaobao]

[His ego is robust; it will survive the winter. If there's still a flush to his face, it's only because embarrassment is so good for his circulation.]

[The argument about the context is a losing battle, so he's dropping it in favor of a fight he has a chance of winning.]

If it's a good point, then you should try it. Go on. Let's see how you do.

[wife_material]

[But what's to be embarrassed about? He's normal. Though it might be a little more normal to realize there are only losing battles, here.]

I don't think I trust your judgment.

[detective_xiaobao]

[Not all losing battles. He thinks he can win this one.]

Then send it to Li Lianhua. He's seen plenty. Or do you not trust his judgment either?
