Chapter 270: Chapter 270: The More Dangerous, The More Exciting_1

However, Wang Ye doesn’t currently have the time to address the issue with Lyublino.

It’s still uncertain whether the opposition will make a move, and if he becomes paranoid, that might make him an easy target to underestimate.

With regards to such matters, it’s just about meeting force with force, right?

Just handle things as they come...

However, Maylov’s reminder was reasonable. He would need to pay attention to his personal safety in the recent period.

Four bodyguards seem insufficient. So, another Mercedes and four more bodyguards should be added!

Well, since he owns his own security company, let alone eight bodyguards, even eighty could be arranged...

...

"Uncle, have you been busy lately? It’s been a while since we last chatted. How about we find time to have a meal together?" Wang Ye asked with a laugh over the phone.

A smile appeared on Khodorkovsky’s face as he kindly responded, "I’ve been a bit busy, merging two large companies requires a lot of work. But so far, it’s been relatively smooth. It’s easy to have a meal together, you can come over anytime."

"Uncle, as one of Russia’s top tycoons, can you stop eating in the company cafeteria all the time? How about this, I’ll treat you to dinner at the Turandot Restaurant tonight." Wang Ye jokingly suggested.

Khodorkovsky hesitated but eventually agreed, "Alright, I’ll be there at six thirty, but I have to leave before eight thirty as I have an important meeting tonight."

Now that’s a real big shot, controlling an "energy empire"!

Also being a workaholic, he has numerous daily tasks to handle, making Wang Ye look a bit "lazy" in comparison.

The arrangement to meet for dinner wasn’t a spontaneous decision.

Firstly, Gavriil reminded him to maintain his "uncle-nephew relationship".

Secondly, Wang Ye needed to report to Khodorkovsky on his work progress. After all, the real boss behind both the Polar Bear Investment Company and New Sun Group was Khodorkovsky - Wang Ye was simply a "high-ranking employee"...

...

Wang Ye left his apartment just before six in the evening to prepare for his departure.

He had invited Khodorkovsky to dinner at the Turandot Restaurant that evening, so he needed to get there ahead of time.

Downstairs, the two black Mercedes were already up and running.

Wang Ye had already instructed Anton to arrange for the new car, but it wasn’t ready yet.

However, two new bodyguards had been assigned and were ready, meaning Wang Ye would now be accompanied by six bodyguards whenever he goes out!

In the car he was in, Xie Liaosha and another man served as two bodyguards.

Four bodyguards were stationed in the follow-up car!

Once the new car arrives, two additional bodyguards will be added, making a total of eight bodyguards!

More importantly, all these bodyguards have rich combat experience. They were actual soldiers who had seen real combat!

Unless Lyublino’s boss wanted to start a "war", this number of bodyguards should be more than enough...

You see, this is Moscow - the capital of Russia!

However bold and reckless they might be, they wouldn’t dare to make too much noise, would they?

Once inside the car, Wang Ye unusually took out his gun from the glove compartment and put it in a prepared bag to carry with him.

He’s still young and doesn’t want any "accidents"...

...

"Boss, is someone out to get you? Do you need the brothers to do something about it?"

Just after getting into the car, Xie Liaosha turned to ask.

A look of excitement crossed his face, as if a great opportunity had presented itself, leaving Wang Ye speechless...

It was also understandable. Since Xie Liaosha and his men had left the army, they hadn’t had a real "drill" with actual weapons.

As for the recent episode with the two Russians, Xie Liaosha hadn’t had a chance to participate.

If he had participated, he probably wouldn’t have enjoyed it, because it was too easy.

Being a bodyguard for Wang Ye had been quite boring, because Wang Ye had never encountered any danger!

When Wang Ye suddenly instructed to increase the number of bodyguards and purchased another Mercedes, planning to increase the number of bodyguards to eight, Xie Liaosha quickly sensed something.

The boss must have perceived some kind of danger...

Otherwise, there would be no need for such measures!

Unable to contain his curiosity, he immediately asked Wang Ye about it as soon as he saw him.

The young man in the passenger seat didn’t turn his head, but his ears perked up, clearly also very interested in the matter.

Wang Ye just laughed, "You’re hoping for something to happen, aren’t you? Just be careful during this period, there might be danger, but then again, there might be none. Anyway, better safe than sorry."

Xie Liaosha nodded with a smile, thumping his chest, "Boss, rest assured, with us brothers around, there will be absolutely no danger to you!"

After he finished speaking, he stepped on the gas, and the Mercedes roared off...

......

Wang Ye sat alone in the familiar private room at the familiar Turandot Restaurant.

It wasn’t quite six thirty yet, and Khodorkovsky hadn’t arrived. He was a very punctual person, if he said he would arrive at six thirty, he would arrive exactly at that time, neither early nor late...

Wang Ye held the delicate white porcelain cup and took a sip of black tea.

He was considering what he should discuss with Khodorkovsky.

Although their relationship is supposedly that of uncle and nephew, it’s not really. Wang Ye doesn’t actually think himself as Khodorkovsky’s "nephew" - self-awareness is a virtue.

In his eyes, a significant portion of their relationship is based on mutual use...

Well, you could also say mutual benefit; it sounds nicer this way!

Of course, it’s not devoid of any emotion. After all, Wang Ye did save Khodorkovsky’s life, and Khodorkovsky has given Wang Ye quite a lot too!

While he was pondering, the door to the private room was knocked and a maid led Khodorkovsky in.

Wang Ye promptly stood up and said with a laugh, "Right on the dot at six thirty, uncle, you’re very punctual! What would you like to eat? I haven’t ordered yet."

Khodorkovsky waved his hand and had the maid bring over the menu. After flipping through it, he casually ordered a few items.

He then pushed the menu to Wang Ye. Wang Ye didn’t even flip through it, but just smiled at the maid, "The usual will do."

He wasn’t a first-time or twice-time visitor here, but a regular. The maids knew what he liked to eat.

The maid nodded with a smile and left the room, leaving only Wang Ye and Khodorkovsky.

"How have things been on your end lately? I heard you acquired two Russian Internet companies?" Khodorkovsky asked casually.

Clearly, he was referring to Wang Ye’s acquisition of MAIL.RU and Yandex.

Wang Ye chuckled and casually replied, "Yes, out of all the Russian Internet companies, I value these two the most. To be honest, I don’t see potential in the others."
