How to implement chat in c# client-server application?

Question

C++ / C#

This action takes place in a game that I have not yet completed in c # wpf (tic-tac-toe for the course).
I did the user authorization, the creation of a lobby, and similar things through requests to the server, everything is clear here, but it’s not clear how to make a chat between two players in the lobby. I think that with the help of requests it will not work (maybe I don’t know something), then what should I do?
Alternatively, you can create a separate thread and communicate with the server in a loop, but in my opinion this is an extra load and this thread will interfere with my other requests to the server (probably haven't tried it yet)

UPD. Sorry, I didn't say what I'm using. I use sockets, protocol tcp.

For such things, there is the SignalR library , with a bunch of examples of how to write a chat on it, for example .
In general, I advise you to dig in this direction.
