Chapter 983: Shocked! Mr. Winton, why are you here?

"Mr. Tan, the scenery here is really beautiful! Although this is my first time visiting Dragon Country, I have long been fascinated by your country's scenic spots and historical sites. This time, I am very happy to be able to visit this rare scenery with your company!"

In the Diaoyutai Scenic Area, Duke Winton, accompanied by Tan Qianli, walked around the scenery. He looked happy and relaxed.

Under the leadership of Tan Qianli, the two came to the shore of a lake.

"Birds are resting on the sandbank, the house is winding and deep, there are vines and flowers, and the water is purple. Mr. Winton, places of interest like this can be found everywhere in China! I sincerely hope that Mrs. Sa can visit my country as agreed. By then, I hope she will be attracted by the magnificent mountains and rivers and places of interest in my country, just like you!"

With his hands behind his back, Tan Qianli gracefully pointed out the covered bridges and winding paths and pavilions on the lake. He had the elegance of a diplomat from a major country, and the confidence of a Chinese citizen.

It was this magnanimity that made the Wintons, who were sitting under the pavilion, admire him so much.

Here they talked about life, national affairs, and recent developments in a harmonious atmosphere.

Half an hour later, Jian Jingzhe got off the accompanying jeep and walked to the lakeside, reminding him lightly, "Ambassador Tan, the four treasures of the study artist from Jiangnan has arrived!"

"Mr. Tan, are you leaving?" Mr. Winton was a little surprised and stood up to ask.

Tan Qianli smiled and turned around and said, "Mr. Winton, Ms. Winton, please excuse me for a moment!"

As he was speaking, he changed his tone and said, "As the saying goes, courtesy is the key to reciprocity! Your delegation came here and treated us with courtesy. They brought us many gifts from across the ocean, so we naturally have to treat them with courtesy!"

After saying that, he smiled apologetically and walked away.

"Actually, Ambassador Tan doesn't have to do all this himself, but he values ​​your friendship very much and asked me to let him take a look at the gifts when I prepare them!" Jian Jingzhe said a few more words to the Wintons at the right time.

“I see!” Winton was stunned, his expression slightly moved. He watched Jian Jingzhe leave, shook his wife’s hand, and said with emotion: “Mr. Tan is not a friend in vain!”

On this side, Tan Qianli got into the car, and after Jian Jingzhe got in, Tong Cheng started the car and drove away at high speed.

"Comrade Wang Defa and Comrade Lei Jin are ready! The Duke and Duchess of Winton are accompanied by Minister Hong, you can rest assured!" Jian Jingzhe reminded as soon as he got in the car.

There was already some sweat on Tan Qianli's back, and the closer he got to the forty-minute time limit, the more uncomfortable his cervical spine felt.

In addition, the temperature has been quite high these past two days, and it is not easy for him to hold on at the age of over 60.

"Li Xiangnan was able to think of this way to turn things around! Very smart! If we do this, it will be much easier!"

Tan Qianli felt that Li Xiangnan's method of using the national treasure as an excuse to temporarily leave Winton was convenient.

This method not only makes Winton feel valued, but also makes it easier for him to treat illnesses and give acupuncture.

This tactic of "blocking is not as good as venting" is indeed effective.

He left with a legitimate reason and was not afraid that Winton would suspect anything.

"Yes, to be honest, Mr. Tan, I admire this young man's ability to plan and deal with problems and difficulties. He has courage and wisdom beyond his age. He is a rare talent!" Jian Jingzhe also admired him very much.

Tan Qianli looked at her with some surprise, and said in amazement: "Xiao Jian, it's rare for you to praise someone with such a high evaluation!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Back at Building 10, Li Xiangnan was waiting at the door. When he saw Tan Qianli getting out of the car, he breathed a sigh of relief. He went up to the diplomat and supported him, then asked, "Mr. Tan, is Duke Winton okay?"

"Your method is really the best! Winton is really grateful and surprised! You kid, you're a talented person!" Tan Qianli was helped out of the car by him and easily entered the acupuncture room that had been prepared long ago.

"Mr. Tan!" Lei Jin and Wang Defa immediately began to give him acupuncture.

Jian Jingzhe brought over the four treasures of the study from Jiangnan and asked Tan Qianli to look at them. He selected a set and asked his secretary to report it to the staff of the Protocol Department.

"This time you go over, and when you come back it will be lunch time!" Li Xiangnan was much more relaxed at this time, so he smiled and said, "Basically there won't be any problems!"

"Well! The difficult part is the closed-door meeting that starts in the afternoon! These two and a half days will be hard to endure!" Tan Qianli smiled helplessly.

"It's okay, I'll take care of everything!" Li Xiangnan had read through all the information about Duke Winton.

It was just as he said, there were no problems at the lunch, the meeting, or even the press conference held at 7 o'clock that evening.

Whenever the time was about thirty-five minutes, Tan Qianli would always be invited to come out and leave for a while.

Either the Jingdezhen ceramic set has arrived, or the Ru kiln tribute porcelain has arrived.

Either the southern Yunnan scented tea has arrived, or the Northeastern ginseng has arrived.

This time, Li Xiangnan almost figured out all the Song family’s relationships across the country.

He really didn't expect that if he wanted to bring honor to the country, the Song family must have important industries in the local area.

In short, although the money is not much, the thought behind the gift is great.

A small teacup from the Ru kiln would surely make the Wintons very happy.

On the afternoon of the third day, there was only one hour left before the closing of the conference.

Tan Qianli was about to conduct the last diagnosis and treatment of the entire three-day conference, which would end this cruel and 'inhumane' test.

This first-generation diplomat of the Republic has been injected with countless needles.

There were five doctors present who were too numerous to count, and Li Xiangnan himself couldn’t count them either.

To this day, even Wang Defa and Wang Qileijin no longer wanted to use acupuncture on Dr. Tan’s neck.

Because the old man's neck had already been pierced to pieces by countless frequent and strong acupuncture treatments.

It was all purple and there were mottled bloodstains beneath the skin.

"Mr. Tan!"

Looking at this shocking skin, Li Xiangnan's eyes were red. He couldn't imagine that this came from a strong old man.

Feeling the choked tone behind him, Tan Qianli patted Li Xiangnan's hand with his backhand, smiled and encouraged: "It's okay, it's almost over! It's over, you should have a good sleep!"

"It's you who should have a good sleep!" Li Xiangnan's eyes were red and he didn't dare to look at his hand that was rubbing the needle.

His palms were already covered in blood.

That is the sequelae of the skin's inability to heal wounds quickly!

"Mr. Tan!" Jian Jingzhe took out a shirt waistcoat with a fake collar from the bag beside him and handed it over, turning away his red eyes, unable to bear to look at it.

"Let me help!" Song Yi took the fake collar from her hand and helped Mr. Tan put it on with the crying Ding Yuqiu.

In the trash can on the side was the fake collar that Tan Qianli had just changed. The plaster on the back half of it had long been soaked with blood and turned black and purple.

Li Xiangnan meticulously applied special blood-absorbing cotton and bandages to him, reached out and held the buttoned-up hand of Mr. Tan, and said softly, "Mr. Tan, you have worked so hard!"

"Haha!" Tan Qianli smiled fearlessly, stood up and said, "Kids, you are the ones who have worked really hard!"

Huang Ninglei, who was standing at the door with some emotion, reached out to hold the door handle and said with relief: "Engineer Tan, this time when you come back, it's over! You must have a good rest!"

"um, I……"

Tan Qianli smiled and nodded, but before he could finish his words, there was a knock on the door.

Everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Who is it?

"Is that Zimo? He went out to buy soda. Open the door!" Wang Defa glanced at the people in the room and said with a smile.

Only those who are familiar with this mission know the purpose of this reception room.

Everyone nodded, but didn't take it seriously.

Huang Ninglei glanced at Li Xiangnan and found that he nodded to him, so he opened the door and stuck his head out with a smile, "Zimo, soda... Duke Winton? Why are you here?"

But the second half of his sentence turned into an exclamation, and then his tone suddenly became horrified.

"..."

Everyone in the room was startled.

Even Li Xiangnan stood up.

Squeak.

After the door opens.

The Duke of Winton stood outside the door. He was in his fifties and tears were streaming down his face.

His gray beard trembled uncontrollably.

Tan Qianli put on a Zhongshan suit to cover his bloody shoulder, looked straight at him and said, "Mr. Winton, why are you here?!"
