Before saying goodbye, The Emperor patted Wang Ye on the shoulder with a smile, praising, "You've done well, especially with the acquisition of the Siberian Oil Company. Keep up the good work, you'll achieve as much as your uncle one day."
This was the second time The Emperor had said such a thing that night!
Wang Ye was moved. People like The Emperor didn't speak lightly.
If he repeated something twice, it surely contained profound implications!
Wang Ye understood that The Emperor might be hinting that if Wang Ye "sided" with him, he could provide him with no less than what Khodorkovsky offered!
He might even position Wang Ye to "inherit" Khodorkovsky's legacy...
Understanding aside, certain things shouldn't be voiced aloud, and Wang Ye hadn't decided to "betray" Khodorkovsky just yet.
Truthfully, Wang Ye was grateful towards Khodorkovsky
Firstly, Khodorkovsky treated him well, offering resources without hesitation.
