Although he is 45 years old, Western men are not too old. And he has a good demeanor, he looks like a mature male in his thirties, exuding an aristocratic demeanor all over his body, which makes people very fond of him.

"Miss Wen, nice to meet you, oh! What a beautiful and noble woman."
He uses Chinese, and his Chinese is very standard, without the slightest contortion.

At this point, Wen Xinya already knew that this Mr. Gilles-de-Castei said that he really recognized her.
Jill looked very happy, and asked a gentleman: "It's ten o'clock in the morning, and there are still two hours before lunch. Why don't we order some exquisite refreshments and chat while eating?"
The French attach great importance to dinner, and generally important invitations are in the evening.
Jill chooses the morning because he wants to do as the Romans do. People in country Z always attach importance to the morning. Important invitations such as visiting relatives and friends, meeting guests and friends are usually in the morning, and lunch is more grand, except for banquets of course.
Wen Xinya smiled and said: "The guest is up to the host, I have no objection to your arrangement, Mr. Jill."
This Mr. Jill is more cordial than expected, Wen Xinya admires him very much.
