Chapter 892: Chapter 847: Eliminate Hidden Dangers

Upon hearing Khodorkovsky’s question, Wang Ye was taken aback.

He had not expected Khodorkovsky to be so direct...

After hesitating for a moment, he responded, "It’s hard to say about things six years from now, but I probably won’t participate..."

Glancing at Khodorkovsky, who was still staring at him, it was clear he was not quite satisfied with that answer.

Wang Ye said with a wry smile, "Uncle, you’re not unaware of my other identity, how could I possibly get involved in an election?"

Khodorkovsky shook his head, "What other identity? You now only have one identity as Mikhail! You are my nephew Khodorkovsky, the son-in-law of the Romanov family, the fiancé of Grand Duchess Rossiyana, the party leader of The Second Faction, and the Deputy Speaker Duma!"

Listing out such a long string of titles, Khodorkovsky had to pause to catch his breath, and there were still many titles Wang Ye held that were not mentioned...

But Wang Ye got his point.

The issue of his identity had been completely resolved when he got engaged to Rossiyana.

Unless the Kremlin, the Patriarch, and the Romanov family were willing to slap their own faces, or they all lost power and reputation, they were guaranteeing the authenticity of Wang Ye’s identity.

If anyone dared to question Wang Ye’s identity, they would first be going against the Kremlin and the Patriarch!

Wang Ye himself wouldn’t need to explain anything, as Puding would step in to deal with the person who raised questions...

The key was that Wang Ye himself had not yet overcome that mental barrier!

He still felt he was not a "real" Russian, just an "imposter," so he hadn’t really considered future matters.

If he could have a stable time at Duma, he would be quite satisfied.

However, after being "jolted awake" by Khodorkovsky’s words, Wang Ye also realized something.

Indeed, having come this far, why was he still so hesitant!

"Wang Ye" had become a thing of the past, as long as he did not admit it himself, even if others tried to attack him with that, it would be futile.

He was "Mikhail"!

......

After thinking for quite some time, Wang Ye finally raised his head, his gaze settling with determination.

"I know what to do now, uncle, don’t worry.

Perhaps six years from now I still won’t be sure whether to join the Election, but I will definitely fight for the things I should," he said.

Honestly, whether he must sit in that position, Wang Ye felt indifferent.

What’s more important is whether he could actually hold real power in his hands!

If, years later, through his own maneuvering, Duma’s power could stand equal to the Kremlin, or even surpass it in some aspects.

Then why not be the Duma Speaker, why bother vying for the position in the Kremlin...

Khodorkovsky’s face broke into a knowing smile, and he patted Wang Ye’s arm lightly, saying in a gentle voice:

"Observing you over these past three years, I’m becoming more and more convinced that maybe you are the person who can lead our country back to the pinnacle!

Of course, the prerequisite is that you truly integrate yourself into this country, and truly identify as a Russian from the bottom of your heart, instead of always feeling like an outsider.

Trust me, as long as you can do this, even someone like me who knows your true identity will not regard you as an outsider.

Because, since ancient times, Russia has been a country of great inclusivity.

Just look at the history of past Tsars and the Former Soviet Era, and you’ll understand, there have been many foreigners in power.

..."

Wang Ye was somewhat speechless, he could tell that Khodorkovsky really meant what he said, and even seemed somewhat proud.

To let a "foreigner" take control of one’s own country, that’s something perhaps only Europeans could accept...

Indeed, different cultures, different ways of thinking.

......

Since he planned to "sever" ties with his past self and completely abandon the identity of "Wang Ye," he needed to do some things.

The next day, he didn’t go to his Duma office to work but asked Rossiyana to handle the routine work for him. She was to handle anything not urgently requiring his attention.

After arranging his Duma affairs, he took command from his office on the top floor of Xiao Ying Hotel, closing the door to deal with his "personal affairs."

The first matter was to make a call to Ruan Xiaozhu.

Once the call connected, Wang Ye said directly, "Sister Xiaozhu, cancel Qingyun Study Abroad Service Company and that SIM card company as quickly as possible!"

Ruan Xiaozhu seemed startled on the other end, quickly asking, "What’s wrong, did something happen?"

Wang Ye didn’t keep it from her, since she was well aware of his affairs, and simply stated, "I plan to let the original identity disappear, at least it should disappear here in Russia, so the companies related to Wang Ye’s identity should be dealt with."

Hearing this, Ruan Xiaozhu didn’t ask further and said she would handle it immediately.

"Oh, there’s one more thing. I have a couple of streets in the New Sun Supermarket area. I’ll have someone send you the documents later. Take them to Big Head Kong of the New Sun Group and negotiate to sell all these shop units back to the Group. Let’s price them at... say 150,000 US dollars each, which should be slightly below market value," Wang Ye instructed further.
