He didn't pay much heed to the statement about him not being worthless. He never did. People didn't know. While Temari knew more about him than most people, she still didn't know everything. There were even a lot of things he hadn't told Ryuutaro before... but at least for the time being he was still useful enough not to be thrown away.
That isn't to say the damage hadn't been done. While for the moment he was too relieved for his self-doubts to start crawling through his head again, they would return, as well as a bit of wariness of Temari's words in the future... but for now, everything was okay.]
