身正不怕影子斜(shēn zhèng bú pà yǐng zi xié)

English Translation: “If you stand straight, do not fear a crooked shadow.”

Meaning:
As long as you do things with integrity and honesty, you have nothing to fear, even if others may criticize or cast doubts. It encourages standing by one’s actions and principles.

Example:
她工作认真，做事公正，所以身正不怕影子斜，从不担心别人背后议论。
(She works diligently and with fairness, so she “does not fear a crooked shadow,” never worried about others gossiping behind her back.)
