Leave it with me
Neutral Depends on context
What it really means
Means "I will deal with it". From a reliable person it is a real promise. From someone busy or avoiding the task, the matter may quietly disappear — so follow up politely if nothing happens.
Chinese explanation
意思是"交给我来处理"。出自靠谱的人是真承诺;出自很忙或想推脱的人,这件事可能会悄悄没了下文。没消息就礼貌地追问一下。
Example conversation
A: The heating in my room still isn't working.
B: Leave it with me — I'll chase the landlord today.
A:我房间的暖气还是不好用。
B:交给我吧——我今天就去催房东。
