Chapter 1429: Chapter 1114: One Secret Left_2

Rossiyana breathed a sigh of relief, it was good that Wang Ye was not in danger!

She thought of something else and tentatively asked, "Misha, should we discuss this matter with Grandpa?"

Wang Ye nodded readily and said, "Of course, it’s best to let Grandpa know too, so he can be aware. But except for Grandpa, don’t tell anyone else, especially your subordinates."

In fact, by now, Wang Ye felt that his identity was no longer such a big secret; it was alright to let people know gradually, of course within a small circle.

Gradually, everyone ceased to pay too much attention to this matter.

...

Regarding Wang Ye’s identity, Rossiyana dared not discuss it over the phone with Constantin; she only mysteriously told him there was an important issue she wanted to discuss and asked him to come to Moscow.

So on January 2nd, Constantin flew to Moscow.

He often came to Moscow anyway, and had his own private plane—coming over was a simple matter.

Upon reaching Wang Ye’s mansion, Wang Ye and Rossiyana candidly revealed their identities to Constantin.

Clearly, even Constantin, cunning as a fox, was shocked beyond measure when he first heard about it, taking a long time to recover.

"So, that’s the situation, I think it’s time to let you and Rossiyana know since we are all family now."

In the end, Wang Ye spread his hands and spoke with a sincere tone.

Hearing this, Constantin felt somewhat critical inside, thinking that the young man should have mentioned it earlier!

Now that you’ve married Rossiyana, and only then you tell us, isn’t this...

a trap?

But he also understood that such matters, if it were him, he wouldn’t have told others in advance either...

Moreover, to be honest, it wasn’t too terrible a matter—before, Wang Ye’s identity was also a "half-blood", and no one cared.

After all, there are 194 ethnic groups in Russia...

There are all kinds of nations and people, so everyone is rather indifferent about it and doesn’t make a big deal out of it.

Looking at its history, one can understand—"foreigners" could become Tsar and were even loved and supported by everyone.

Anyway, no matter who you were or where you came from, as long as you now consider yourself Russian, then we are all Davarich!

So, in actuality, Constantin was even more indifferent about this than Wang Ye and Rossiyana...

If it weren’t because Wang Ye’s current position was too high, which might lead competitors to exploit this issue, Constantin felt it would be better for Wang Ye to just make his identity public.

Perhaps it could even become a wonderful story!

Of course, with Wang Ye’s current status, it wasn’t appropriate to use his identity to garner attention...

After thinking, Constantin sighed helplessly and said:

"It doesn’t matter, whatever your nationality was before, you are now Mikhail, the First Vice Speaker of the Duma, the Director of the National Economic Committee, and the Director of the Foreign Affairs Committee!

Since the Kremlin plays dumb, then we should act as if they don’t know, and just do what we need to do without too much concern.

Of course, what you said makes sense, try not to have a falling-out with them, just in case.

In this General Election, your approach is correct, staying neutral, supporting no one, this way the Kremlin also can’t criticize."

Saying this, Constantin turned to look at Rossiyana and said with a smile:

"This time don’t count on Misha, you have to rely on yourself, this is also a test for you.

If you can’t even overcome this challenge, then you’re indeed not suited to take charge of the Kremlin!

Of course, you can still utilize the resources from Misha’s side, compared to Medvedev and Grezlov, you still have an edge."

Rossiyana nodded vigorously, her lips clenched, and said with a determined look:

"This position should have been Misha’s!

Since he didn’t participate this time due to his identity, then leave it to me, I will obtain this position!"

"Anyway, whoever takes over the Kremlin, it’s all the same."

Wang Ye had no words to say; he himself didn’t even know why this position should belong to him...

But Rossiyana meant well, so naturally, he couldn’t say anything.

After confessing his identity issues to Rossiyana and Constantin, Wang Ye felt somewhat relieved in his heart.

It’s difficult; too many secrets can really weigh heavily on someone.

Now, he only had one secret left, which he hadn’t told anyone else, and that was not only is he a "fake Russian," but also a reborn person...

Of course, this secret was something Wang Ye would never speak of, not even to Rossiyana or the women around him, including his parents!

Because this matter was too "shocking" and inexplicable by science, speaking of it would bring no benefits but could lead to unforeseeable consequences, so Wang Ye planned to keep it to himself and bear it silently.

After resolving this matter, Rossiyana also let go of her doubts and rekindled her fighting spirit, busying herself for the General Election again.

January 10th, the first round of voting for the General Election officially began!

All polling stations across the nation opened at the same time, and eligible voters began going to the polling stations to cast their sacred vote for the candidates they supported.

The Election Committee, composed of members of both the Duma and the Government, was responsible for managing polling stations and collecting and tallying votes.

If any issues arose during the General Election, it was also the responsibility of the Election Committee to handle them.

Of course, in case of extreme situations, they would have to be escalated to the Duma or the Supreme Court.

After about two weeks, the results of the first round of voting came out, and as expected, Rossiyana, Grezlov, and Medvedev were evenly matched.

Medvedev achieved a support rate of 33%.

Grezlov achieved a support rate of 32%.

Rossiyana also attained a support rate of 32%.

Although Medvedev’s support rate was one percentage point ahead, it was of no use as he was still far from the 50% needed to win.

The other lesser-known candidates had pitifully low support rates and were directly eliminated, and these three moved on to the second round to continue voting!

This round was crucial as it would inevitably eliminate one candidate, retaining only two for the final round.

At this stage, none of them wanted to lose!

Especially Grezlov and Medvedev, who had staked their entire fortunes and political futures.

If they won, everything would be bright.

If they lost, they would be doomed!

Thus, the situation suddenly became tense, and the competition between the three intensified, especially between Grezlov and Medvedev, who began to attack each other unscrupulously.

Two days before the second round of voting began, a program on Russia’s First TV station suddenly exposed a scandal involving Grezlov’s son.

Grezlov’s son wasn’t involved in politics; instead, he had started an architectural company and was into real estate development.

Over the past years, as the national economy developed, especially with the major construction projects in Moscow, Russia’s real estate industry also thrived.

All the substantial real estate developers made a killing.

Clearly, Grezlov’s son also took the opportunity to make a substantial amount of money. His company also undertook many governmental projects, including affordable housing, through connections.

Initially, he was warned by Wang Ye for cutting corners and using substandard materials in affordable housing projects.

Later, he indeed restrained himself somewhat, at least not daring to be too greedy in projects like affordable housing, but after all, with his father’s connections, he obtained many low-cost lands in major cities like Moscow and Petersburg, then developed them into commodity houses and made a fortune!

Now what the First TV Station had exposed was all about these matters.

Releasing it at this time, the intent was not on the wine...
