Becoming a Russian Oligarch After Rebirth
Chapter 1154 - 977: The Last Question

Chapter 1154: Chapter 977: The Last Question

In the evening, after the hustle and bustle had settled down, inside the hotel room where Wang Ye was staying.

All the members of the delegation had completed their reports, and Wang Ye’s suite had become quiet as everyone had gone back to their rooms to rest.

Natalia quietly slipped in.

After a passionate kiss, the two of them took a long hot bath together, which took a bit longer than expected...

Afterwards, perhaps because the bath had drained their energy, both appeared somewhat exhausted.

Lying on the soft and wide bed, Natalia and Wang Ye began discussing the recent situation in Kiev.

"You wouldn’t believe it, but during the trial of those people we caught, ambassadors from several countries stationed in Kiev came to observe.

They made outrageous statements to the media, expressing concerns about the fairness of Kiev’s judicial system and whether it could guarantee the basic rights of their citizens.

They even sent notes to our Ministry of Foreign Affairs, demanding we release some of the foreign suspects.

I shot them down right away.

Those suspects don’t have judicial immunity, and since they committed offenses in Ukraine, they must face trial here!"

...

It was clear that Natalia was thriving as the Attorney General, possessing a savvy and shrewdness that belied her sweet appearance...

But this was exactly what Wang Ye wanted to see.

He needed such a tough character to help him firmly control the situation in Kiev.

Not a pretty vase to sit there just for decoration!

Wang Ye, looking up at the ceiling, said with a smile, "As long as we are acting according to regulations, we don’t need to worry about so many external factors. We’ve already offended those countries; might as well offend them thoroughly."

Initially, he directed two paths of action, one overt and one covert, capturing all the domestic and overseas forces plotting trouble.

Not only did he pave the way for Yanukovych’s and Yulia’s smooth accession to power, but he also eliminated the hidden threats planted in Kiev by overseas forces!

At the same time, he made Yanukovych completely commit to Russia’s embrace, leaving him no leeway with certain countries...

It was indeed killing several birds with one stone!

Of course, Yanukovych was originally inclined towards Russia; otherwise, Wang Ye wouldn’t have chosen him as his "proxy."

It could only be said that Wang Ye was prepared for every eventuality.

After all, politics is too complex, and who can guarantee that Yanukovych wouldn’t change his stance after gaining power?

Natalia nodded in understanding; among Kiev’s power trio, she was Wang Ye’s true confidant and the one he absolutely trusted, and of course, she understood some of his attitudes.

After discussing formal business, Natalia suddenly brought up Angelina.

She asked solemnly, "Have you visited Simferopol recently?"

Wang Ye shook his head, "No, I’ve been very busy lately. I just made a trip to China, and after coming back, I arrived here in Kiev within a few days. When I return, I still have to visit countries like Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Kazakhstan."

He indeed hadn’t seen Angelina in a while.

Though they would occasionally call each other, calls could never replace face-to-face meetings.

"You should visit her when you get the chance. The last two times we spoke on the phone, she seemed kind of unhappy. I don’t know if she’s encountered trouble at work or something else. I asked her, but she didn’t say," Natalia said.

Wang Ye frowned; during their phone calls, Angelina had not shown any signs of distress.

It probably wasn’t trouble at work because if it was, Angelina wouldn’t have kept it from him. It must be something else...

"I’ll visit her after I’m done with the Collective Security Meeting," Wang Ye said, shaking his head.

......

Having stayed another day in Kiev to sign several framework cooperation agreements, it was mostly Wang Ye’s entourage who conducted negotiations with the Ukrainian representatives while Wang Ye found some rare leisure time, meeting privately with Yulia for a "cordial meeting."

Being young, Wang Ye had the vitality to withstand such activities without feeling too exhausted...

After the intense and cordial "meeting," they got ready and started discussing work in the sitting room of the suite.

"We’ve had an internal discussion, and at the Collective Security Meeting held in Moscow, Yanukovych will personally attend and declare his intention to join publicly.

However, whether as a reward or as support, the benefits that should be given must be given.

For example, your Mikhail Plan from yesterday, we want to join during the preparatory phase and after its formal establishment, Ukraine should receive at least thirty percent of the annual support funds.

Of course, we won’t just take the money and do nothing.

We will certainly maintain consistency with the larger direction and... with you, Misha," Yulia said, looking earnestly at Wang Ye.

Being on the same side, she spoke very directly, without beating around the bush, laying her cards right out on the table.

In essence, Ukraine’s precondition for joining the Collective Security Organization was one thing: they needed funding!

If Ukraine’s economic conditions were better, perhaps their terms would have been more tactful, not so direct and blunt.

But there was no helping it, they were just too poor!

So they didn’t hide their demands; they were willing to cooperate on anything as long as they were given enough money.

Actually, Wang Ye had gained a general understanding of these matters during yesterday’s discussion with Yanukovych, but Yulia hadn’t gone into as much detail.
