Upon arriving at the Yukos Building, Wang Ye spoke to Xie Liaosha, who was driving the car: "You guys can knock off now. Leave a car for me. I'll drive myself home after the meeting."
Xie Liaosha nodded, switched off the ignition, handed the car key to Wang Ye, and walked towards the car parked behind them.
Wang Ye sat in the car and dialed Mr. Hofchinco's number to tell him that he had arrived.
Shortly afterwards, the secretary of Mr. Hofchinco appeared at the entrance of the building.
Seeing Wang Ye's car, she waved at him. Wang Ye got out of the car and walked over.
Strangely, Mr. Hofchinco's secretary wasn't a beauty, but rather a woman in her forties.
Obviously, unlike traditional Russian ladies her age, she was quite sophisticated and well maintained.
Upon seeing Wang Ye, the secretary greeted him with a warm smile, spreading her arms for a heartfelt embrace.
"Misha, Mr. Hofchinco is waiting for you in the restaurant. Please, come with me."
