Not only Zhao Yuan, but even Gu Chen knew what Shen Xi meant.
However, for Gu Chen, this was expected. He was not discouraged, and he still had a faint smile on his face. He picked up a fried dumpling and gave it to Shen Xi, saying, "Don't talk. Eat quickly, or it will get cold."
"Thank you," Shen Xi said politely.
"Why are you being so polite? Xi, didn't you just say that I'm not considered an outsider when I'm in a relationship with you?" Gu Chen's tone was a little dissatisfied, and then he continued, "Calling me Gu Chen is too formal. Why don't you call me Chen? Just like how you called Yuan?"
Shen Xi was a little uncomfortable. She called Guan Lei by his full name. If she called Gu Chen "Chen", it would not be good. If Guan Lei knew, he would probably make a scene.
Zhao Yuan felt troubled for Shen Xi. She sighed and said, "Xi, it's only right for friends to address each other this way."
