Chapter 1407 - They Really Know Each Other (1/2)
Deng Wenchang did not genuinely want Qiao Nan to follow by his side and pick up the achievements in the pa.s.sing. It was because he dared not do anything to Qiao Nan. If he could, Deng Wenchang would not only make Qiao Nan miss this event but also simply evict her from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. That would resolve all his worries at one go.
In front of the foreign amba.s.sador, Deng Wenchang was so brazen and fearless with this cheap trick of his. He was not at all worried that He Yi would make him leave since that would put the country in an awkward position in front of the foreign amba.s.sador.
After shaking his hands with the couple, Deng Wenchang introduced himself. When he saw that the amba.s.sador couple did not feel any revulsion toward him, Deng Wenchang then specially mentioned that he had been to the United Kingdom before when he was studying overseas.
He had a deep impression of the United Kingdom and even praised it for being a wonderful country.
When Deng Wenchang felt that he had established enough presence in front of the couple and won a positive first impression, he gently stepped aside as if he had just recalled that Qiao Nan was behind him. “Please allow me to introduce…”
“Oh, Qiao!” Just as Deng Wenchang moved slightly, revealing Qiao Nan behind him, and before he could finish his introduction, the amba.s.sador couple widened their eyes in a pleasant surprise. They then opened their arms and walked to Qiao Nan.
With a gracious and radiant smile, Qiao Nan also opened her arms and hugged the amba.s.sador couple. They even kissed each other on the cheeks. “I miss both of you too. Thank you very much for the previous matter.”
“…”
“…”
The group from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs gaped in shock as they watched the close interactions between Qiao Nan and the amba.s.sador couple. Some of their jaws dropped so much they could barely retract them.
He Yi raised his brow, his eyes s.h.i.+ning brightly. When they were in the department previously, his little junior’s expression did seem to reveal that she knew this new amba.s.sador couple personally. So, this matter was true?
He Yi was elated over the situation. He felt that it was useless no matter how hard Deng Wenchang worked. Deng Wenchang would definitely become Qiao Nan’s accessory today. When Deng Wenchang saw the situation, he stared blankly at Qiao Nan and the amba.s.sador couple hugging and cheek-kissing. That affectionate behavior looked as though they were visiting relatives during the Lunar New Year. One would be able to feel the sincerity from the other party without even using their hearts.
Next, he saw Qiao Nan chatting with the couple as if they were old friends. They were no longer talking about national affairs and the two countries’ relations.h.i.+p. On the contrary, they were on common topics and showing concern for the recent happenings in each other’s lives. Deng Wenchang had directly transformed into wind, blown until he turned into dust and could not be pieced together anymore.
d.a.m.n! No one told him that Qiao Nan had relatives overseas!
d.a.m.n! No one told him that Qiao Nan’s overseas relatives were coincidentally the amba.s.sador couple today.
