Analysis
The Chinese phrase "不客气" has two meanings and in this joke "A" doesn't distinguish the two meanings. The first meaning is you're welcome, which is used when others say thank you to you. The second meaning is unkind or impolite which is used when someone is angry and unkind or impolite.
If you want to understand more clearly, then you had better to search in the online Chinese. You can also ask your teachers in the Chinese classes.
