zyx199199 Posted August 23, 2014 at 11:30 AM Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 at 11:30 AM normally it means "fall victim to you" or "be defeated by you" in the context you provided, it humourously means that these beautiful ladies fell in love with 黄海波，they fell for 黄海波（as skylee said） Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneEye Posted August 24, 2014 at 09:41 PM Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 at 09:41 PM Any native speakers know? skylee is a native speaker. I believe "thank you" was the appropriate response, not an ungrateful insult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPhillips Posted August 24, 2014 at 09:55 PM Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 at 09:55 PM It could be taken as a backhanded compliment, in that Skylee's English is perfect! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
