Congressional Republicans are demanding answers about Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s reported affair with the daughter of a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) official.

The affair occurred years ago when Walz taught English at a high school in Foshan, China, and involved a woman named Jenna Wang, currently 59, according to a report by the Daily Mail.

Their relationship began several months after Walz arrived in Foshan. He was delivering a lecture when he suddenly approached her and whispered in her ear, “You are very beautiful.”

“Tim was very handsome,” Wang told the Daily Mail. “I loved his eyes and his big mouth. We talked afterwards and he was very complimentary about my English. My colleagues couldn’t speak whole sentences but Tim told me that if he closed his eyes and listened it was like being back in America.”

As the two grew closer and began spending time together publicly and privately, they avoided overt shows of affection, lest Wang’s father, CCP official Bin Hui, discovered their affair.

“We talked for hours and hours, we stayed in bed, we had sex,” Wang recalled. “He continued to buy me gifts. I could never stay overnight because of the social conventions. It was very repressive. Couples walked around the city like robots. My father would have been very, very angry and sad if he had found out.”

When Walz returned to the U.S. for the summer, he even asked that she send him a passport-sized photo, suggesting that he intended to help her obtain a visa. But Wang soon discovered it was all lies.

After Walz returned to China, Wang confronted him about their future — she wanted to get married and start a life together. In response, Walz inexplicably accused her of being more interested in obtaining a U.S. passport than in getting married.

“This was very offensive,” she told the Daily Mail. “I said to him that it is both or nothing. I wasn’t giving up my life and my position to move to Nebraska, a cold place in the middle of nowhere that most Chinese people had never heard of.”

“I was giving it up to be with Tim, to get married and start a family. Knowing now that he wasn’t going to marry me made me feel cheap and common as if I was being treated like a prostitute,” she added.

“The next morning Wang slipped out of their hotel and took a taxi to a remote clifftop where she says she contemplated throwing herself off rather than returning to her old life in disgrace,” the Daily Mail noted.

But instead, she returned by bus to Foshan, where she tried to leave Walz, only for him to beg her to stay.

“The bus stopped but I didn’t get off,” she recalled. “He said, please come and let’s talk, let’s give this a chance. But I said no, I felt dead inside. I wasn’t going to force a person to love me. I never saw Tim again.”

“I was deeply insulted, hurt and I had to leave that place because many people knew that we had a relationship,” she added in remarks made to the New York Post. “His lack of character, as a man, a responsible person who had worked in education or [the] military. I thought he also loved me. I loved him.”

Returning to the present, Republicans like Sen. Marco Rubio are now demanding answers.

“If the story today in @DailyMail is true Tim Walz had a relationship with the daughter of a high ranking Chinese Communist Party official and remained in contact with her for years after, if you aspire to be Vice-President of the United States, voters deserve to know everything about any and every link you have to the CCP,” he wrote in a tweet Monday.
