Chinese etiquette: decline twice; they’re just being polite unless they offer three times.

IIRC, modern Japan* has something very similar to this as their de facto etiquette in such a situation, so I had wondered if that was the case :D I’m delighted to find out my first instinct was correct! It makes the scene so much funnier when you know the underlying etiquette.
