[211] The plan is going smoothly_4

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment; people would often compliment her on being young and beautiful, but very few, like Wen Shixuan, were as candid about it, leaving her usually sharp tongue momentarily dulled as she said, "I, I am Manman's—"

Wen Shixuan thought she was being modest and finished the sentence for her, "I know, Manman has already told me over the phone that you're young and capable, working as a lawyer, as a judge."

"No." Zhou Yu hurriedly interrupted him. She was a blunt person and never felt ashamed of her age; to avoid further misunderstanding, she quickly clarified, "Mr. Wen, I am forty-five this year."

Wen Shixuan was at a loss for words, staring blankly at her for a while: Forty-five? Nearly the same age as his two younger sisters, but the difference was astounding. She seemed at most like an elder sister, while his sisters, who were younger, had long since turned into oba-sans.
