Deng Wenchang did not genuinely want Qiao Nan to follow by his side and pick up the achievements in the passing. 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 ambassador, 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 ambassador.
After shaking his hands with the couple, Deng Wenchang introduced himself. When he saw that the ambassador 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.
