The emphasis in 聚談 is more on discussion than meeting.
The present def makes it sound like a punctual verb rather than a durative verb.
It's durative here:
- 無限的聚談和回憶 (TP)
- 大家正在聚谈 grouped together, talking (J)
- 聚談多時 (LA example sentence)

Looks like just two people in the following J example, so perhaps it would be good to add
"to have a chat with sb" or sth like that.

"he has just gone, and I am sure he'll be exceedingly sorry not to have had the pleasure of seeing you before he went."
“他刚刚去,我想他这次错过了和你聚谈的机会一定会感到很遗憾的。”
Diff:
- 聚談 聚谈 [ju4 tan2] /to meet for discussion/
+ 聚談 聚谈 [ju4 tan2] /to have a discussion in a group/to have a chat with sb/
