But we need to keep the quotes? The Chinese line includes quotation marks 「」. Should we keep them? The instruction: translate faithfully, preserve every paragraph break. The quotes are part of the text; we should translate them as English quotation marks? Usually we keep the meaning; we can replace with English quotes. I'd output without the Chinese quotes, just the sentence. Probably fine.
