Chapter 691: Chapter 691: Out of Strategies_1

Wang Ye gave a helpless, bitter smile.

This issue, he had been continually avoiding it, but in his heart Wang Ye also understood.

Running away is not a solution, sooner or later he would have to face it!

If he was just a minor wealthy man, maybe Wang Ye could live more freely than now, because there wouldn’t be so many people paying attention to him and he wouldn’t bear much pressure.

But after being in a high-ranking position, his power has increased a lot, and should look very glorious in the eyes of others.

Yet the extent of the pressure on him, only he himself knows...

Even one’s marriage is no longer a personal decision on whom they like and whom they wish to marry, there were way too many aspects to be considered!

No wonder those prominent families usually prefer to arrange marriages to maintain equality of social rank and so on.

Now Wang Ye has somewhat understood.

After thinking for a while, Wang Ye finally spoke: "I have too many commitments and am too busy at this moment, that I don’t really have time to consider personal issues. Let’s slow it down. Once things get less hectic, I’m still only twenty after all. To marry and have children at this age, it somehow feels...weird..."

Shao Yigu laughed without a word.

Indeed, Wang Ye is extremely young, but because he holds a high position, that often makes people overlook his age.

The truth is, Wang Ye is still a university student.

Shao Yigu did not say anything more, after all, it’s enough to bring up this kind of matter once. He isn’t a professional matchmaker, the more he says the more likely it is to annoy people.

Rossiyana seemed a little disappointed, but she did not lose heart.

Because she believes that she, with her qualifications, will not be disliked by Wang Ye.

Whether it be in terms of looks, talent, or family background, women who could compare to her should not be many!

...

After having dinner, they had a little chat and parted on good terms.

Shao Yigu said farewell happily, and Wang Ye and Rossiyana accompanied him downstairs.

Shao Yigu was quite a low-key person, despite his high position, he didn’t have a convoy like Wang Ye did.

He usually travelled with only one car, which used to be an old Mercedes-Benz S-class sedan. However, now it has been replaced. In support of Wang Ye’s business, it was replaced with a Land Rover Range Rover.

There was a dedicated driver and a guard in the car, both of whom were waiting for Shao Yigu in the car.

When Shao Yigu and Wang Ye were spotted, the guard quickly jumped out of the vehicle and opened the rear door for Shao Yigu.

Shao Yigu didn’t hurry to get into the car, instead, he stood next to the car and chatted with Wang Ye for a little longer.

"I estimate that there will be some changes in my position in some time. If there is someone in the Safety Bureau that you trust who needs an arrangement, I can help get it done before I leave."

He was fairly straightforward about his intentions!

Something shifted in Wang Ye’s heart, although the Safety Bureau was not well-known, its power was indeed strong.

If he instated some people there...

However, upon careful consideration, he shook his head, as the Safety Bureau was where Puding started from, and is very strictly monitored.

Planting his own people there, would be crossing a line and if it gave rise to Kremlin’s suspicion of him, the loss would outweigh the gain. He better give it up.

However, he was quite curious as to which department Shao Yigu was moving to!

So he asked: "In advance, I would like to congratulate you on your promotion, uncle. BTW, which department will you be moving to?"

Shao Yigu gave a little smile and answered: "The army, to preside over military reform. This is not exactly a promotion, but a tough job, let’s consider it as being exiled, haha."

Although he said he was ’exiled’, there was no desolation on his face. It was obvious that things were not the way he portrayed them.

Wang Ye remembered Shao Yigu’s position in his previous life, and recognized the situation.

It seems like starting from now, Kremlin began laying groundwork for Shao Yigu to take over the army!

Let him preside over the military reform first, establish his credibility in the army and wait for his seniority to build up so when the time comes for him to take over as the Minister of Defense, it would be justified...

Although the Safety Bureau, Ministry of Internal Affairs, and Ministry of Defense are all at the ministerial level.

There are major differences among them!

Especially in Russia, there ain’t any "X Committee," "Joint Meeting" and such above the Ministry of Defense, so the power of the Ministry of Defense is enormous!

With Shao Yigu’s current seniority, of course, he is not qualified to take over that position directly. Even if he was forcibly made to take over, subordinates wouldn’t accept it sincerely.

It could easily lead to chaos.

Hence, Kremlin was also careful, first sending Shao Yigu to preside over military reforms, to gradually move up to hold power in the army, they might even hold a "great purge"...

Once Shao Yigu fully controls the army, then the situation will change altogether.

Although Wang Ye just thought about this stuff, he wouldn’t say it out loud.

...

After bidding farewell to Shao Yigu and watching the tail lights of the car disappear into the distance, Wang Ye turned back and smiled at Rossiyana saying, "It’s getting late, let me take you home."

Rossiyana was not living here.

After hearing Wang Ye’s words, Rossiyana deliberately looked up towards the sky, "It’s very late, I’ll just stay here. Anyway, there are many rooms here. The suite you live in is quite big, with several bedrooms."

Wang Ye was a little stumped.

Room is indeed not a problem, not just one Rossiyana, even if there are ten or a hundred of her, there would be enough space to accommodate.

But, the thing is, Kaja and Nalan Yaqi also live here.

So if Rossiyana came to live, what would that entail?

Especially if, Rossiyana "oversteps her bounds" and moves in permanently, wouldn’t he then have to face three girls?

Whether they would compete for his attention or not is secondary, the key issue is he can’t be in so many places at once; he can’t manage his time...

...

After thinking a bit, Wang Ye spoke sincerely: "Nana, it’s not that I don’t want you to live here. I’m mainly considering for you.

Think about it. We are alone together, both at work and at rest, what would people say if this thing gets out?

This might not be good for your reputation.

I am a man, so I don’t care about this.

But for you girls, reputation is very important, especially when you have to consider the reputation of your family as well..."

Rossiyana was actually just testing waters and hadn’t really decided to move in permanently.

So hearing what Wang Ye said, she changed the subject:

"Humph, are there any...people here that... it’s not convenient for me to meet with?

Never mind, I’ve known for a long time that you are a playboy, I don’t mind.

As long as...

As long as after marriage, you don’t mess around outside."

She is a worldly girl and it is clear to her that a successful man like Wang Ye would not lack women around him.

One needs to look no further than the female assistants in Wang Ye’s office...

Moreover, coming from such a prominent family, she had seen too many "dirty things," she was somewhat immune to all these secrets.

In the Duma Building, many staff members had joked behind Mikhail’s back, saying that among all the generations of Duma, Mikhail was the most "romantic and talented" one!
