Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth

Chapter 1030: Chapter 914 Someone Above_2

After all, his highest title was just Deputy Speaker of the Duma, and theoretically, there were still many above him in the hierarchy.

Even Medvedev, the newly appointed Prime Minister, was of a higher rank than himself.

But in reality, when it came to actual power, Wang Ye ranked himself as the third, no one dared to claim they were the "Second Brother".

Because in terms of real power, Wang Ye was ranked second, only next to the Kremlin!

"Alright, there’s really nothing left for me here. I was thinking of waiting for Yanukovych to take office before returning, but that would still take weeks, I can’t wait that long," Wang Ye said with a smile.

By now, there was indeed little point in him staying in Kiev any longer.

Since everything was settled and no changes were expected to occur.

Just to attend Yanukovych’s inauguration ceremony and then stay for about a week seemed really unnecessary.

And when the time comes, it would be more appropriate for someone from the Kremlin to attend the inauguration ceremony, not him!

No matter what, Ukraine is a sovereign country, and Yanukovych is a legitimately elected president; a certain level of reciprocity is required.

As for Wang Ye, he would just quietly be a behind-the-scenes figure, since he didn’t want to steal the limelight anyway.

He had long passed the age of seeking public attention anyway...

......

Before returning to Moscow, Wang Ye still had some matters to explain to Yanukovych and others.

So in the evening, he called Yanukovych, Yulia, and Natalia to his temporary office for a small meeting.

Among the three, except for Natalia who looked exhausted and somewhat spiritless, the other two were radiant and full of energy.

Indeed, Natalia had been working intensely for almost thirty-six hours without sleep, and if it weren’t for Wang Ye’s summon, she probably wouldn’t have had the time to rest back at her apartment tonight.

When the three arrived at the appointed time, Wang Ye was standing by the large window, looking out at the distant night scene.

He turned his head and smiled, asking, "Has the martial law been lifted throughout the city? I see quite a few cars on the streets already."

Natalia nodded with a smile, "Yes, it was lifted ahead of schedule at six in the evening, since the operation was successfully concluded, and there was no longer any need to keep the city locked down."

Yanukovych gave a thumbs up, repeatedly praising, "I really didn’t expect Prosecutor Natalia to be so decisive and bold. Such spirit, absolutely unrivaled!"

Natalia indeed had significant bravery, just her televised speech declaring martial law in Kiev, which lasted nearly a whole day and night, was not a decision every person dared to make.

If Yanukovych and she had switched positions, he probably wouldn’t have dared to make such a call!

Yulia now looked at Natalia with admiration and even envy.

Initially, she thought Natalia, this "little girl," was just clinging to Mikhail’s coattails to bag a position.

But unexpectedly, this "little girl" had turned Kiev upside down and completely annihilated Yushchenko and his gang...

Truly, appearances can be deceiving!

......

Facing Yanukovych’s praises, Natalia simply smiled faintly, without saying much, and certainly without any complacency.

Even though Yanukovych would be the next president, hence her direct superior, Natalia didn’t need to pander to him.

Because she really had powerful backing "above" her!

Moreover, her backer could probably be considered Yanukovych’s behind-the-scenes boss.

Wang Ye motioned for the three to sit down on their own, and then he also took a seat.

He first looked at Natalia and asked with concern:

"You haven’t rested since yesterday, have you? Take my advice, go take a hot bath and get some good sleep.

No matter how big the issue is, it can wait until after you’ve rested. The body is the capital of all your work."

Natalia nodded obediently, and since her apartment was in this building, it was convenient to go back as well.

Wang Ye then turned to Yanukovych with a smile and said, "Congratulations, Mr. President, when is the inauguration ceremony?"

Yanukovych laughed, his mouth twisted as he hurriedly replied, "I discussed this with Mr. Gu Qima; it’s tentatively scheduled for ten days from now since there are still many affairs to manage, and the handover isn’t so quick."

Wang Ye nodded, showing understanding.

Indeed, the current situation in Kiev was chaotic; it definitely wasn’t the best time for a handover.

Gu Qima would persist for a few more days, solving the most difficult problems for Yanukovych in advance, and then, conducting the inauguration ceremony would be a lot better.

"I can’t wait for your inauguration ceremony, there’s too much going on in Moscow, and I’ve been away for too long. I must hurry back as soon as possible.

Today, the main reason I asked you all to come over was to bring the three of you together, to sit down and discuss how we should proceed."

......

Yanukovych was quick-witted. As soon as Wang Ye said this, he immediately declared:

"Mr. Mikhail, rest assured, after I take office, the first thing I will do is announce Yulia as the total candidate and promote Natalia to Attorney General!

In the future, the three of us can consult on any important matters.

Unity gives us greater strength."

Yulia, too, responded with a smile:

"The three of us working together, there should be no challenges left here in Kiev.

The only somewhat threatening person was Yushchenko, and Natalia has him caught.

By the way, will he really be convicted of treason?"

The last sentence was directed at Natalia.

Natalia nodded decisively and replied, "Based on the evidence I currently have, he cannot escape the charge of treason."

"Tsk, I never thought, Yushchenko seemed so elegant and insightful, yet he was colluding with foreign forces behind our backs. Luckily, I did not collaborate with him in the election. In this regard, I owe my thanks to Chairman Mikhail," Yulia said, overwhelmed with emotion.

She was almost going to join forces with Yushchenko in the election.

It was Wang Ye who pulled her back from the brink...

Otherwise, tonight, she wouldn’t be here chatting and laughing with everyone, but more likely she and Yushchenko would be sitting in a cage...

It just shows how miraculous life can be; sometimes, choice is more crucial than effort!

Yanukovych too shared the sentiment, had he not completely leaned towards Mikhail and firmly held onto his "thick thigh", it might have been impossible for him to win the election.

......

Wang Ye had no time to beat around the bush and said straightforwardly:

"I hope once you take office, you will not forget your original intentions, and always remember that your responsibility is to seek benefits for the people and a future for the country!

Unite all the forces that you can and develop the country together.

This way, you will not let down what I have done for you.

Also, I won’t come to your inauguration ceremony, but my father-in-law should be there in person.

..."

After handing over the tasks, Wang Ye waved his hand and said:

"All right, go back, those who need to rest should rest, and those who are busy should get busy.

I’ll leave directly tomorrow, don’t come to see me off.

I came here quietly, not many people know I’m here, and I should leave without drawing attention too."

Yanukovych and Yulia stood up to say goodbye, as they indeed had a lot of work to attend to.

In ten days, they would officially take office...

Meanwhile, Natalia pulled Wang Ye to go back to rest together; it was Wang Ye’s last night in Kiev, of course, she didn’t want to rest alone...

......

The next morning, when Wang Ye got up, Natalia was still sleeping deeply.

After a hot bath the previous night, and a "massage" personally given by Wang Ye, Natalia felt wonderfully relaxed...

Without waking Natalia, Wang Ye got out of bed, washed up, dressed, and had a simple breakfast.

Then he handwrote a note telling Natalia that he was heading back to Moscow, left it on the bedside, and quietly left the house.

Since he did not want to attract too much attention, Wang Ye did not take his own private plane but just rented a business jet that took off directly from Kiev Airport, flying to Moscow...
