He patted Guo Linkun on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Guo, it's really a loss for the party and the people that someone as talented as you hasn't joined the standing committee."

Guo Linkun chuckled and said, "Mayor Dou, the provincial committee recently advocated that leading officials learn more foreign languages. May I ask how you're progressing?"

Upon hearing this,

Dou Qingquan waved his hand and said, "Don't mention it. I'm already in my fifties, asking me to learn a foreign language is like asking for my life."

Guo Linkun's eyes lit up with joy and said, "Mayor Dou, I've recently met a foreign teacher whose language teaching is very smooth. How about I introduce you to her?"

He intended to refuse but didn't want to hurt Guo Linkun's feelings.

He nodded and said, "Xiao Guo, you're really thoughtful."
