"Mm." Wenyan nodded gently, her expression and tone both very natural while speaking.
"He said he's the same age as you, and you guys are good friends. Plus, he's been to our house for a meal, and our two families have been friends for generations. It would be awkward for me to just call him by his full name since he's several years older than me."
Shen Jingxiu: "..." If he remembered correctly, she hadn't hesitated to say "Shen Jingxiu" when revealing her thoughts either, and wasn't he also several years older than her?
He glanced again at Ji Yuanzhou not far away, then turned to Wenyan and asked:
"Do you often meet up privately?"
"No. Since the day he came to our house for dinner, I've only seen him maybe twice."
Shen Jingxiu: "..." And you call that 'only'?
"But aren't you very busy? There were many times Mom wanted to see you, but you were unavailable."
