After a long while, Wang Ye's father finally asked in disbelief, "Wang Ye... he's really going to become the... that person?!"
No one could blame him. If one counted back more than a dozen generations of the Wang family, before Wang Ye, the most accomplished person had been him, reaching the rank of deputy section chief!
Other than that, they had all been ordinary people...
In fact, it was only because his family had been classified as "poor peasants" that Wang Ye's father had been able to leave the countryside and attend university.
And now, someone was suddenly telling him that his son was about to take the "highest" position in one of the world's major powers!
It was truly difficult for him to accept all at once...
Fortunately, Wang Ye had long since told his parents about his experiences in Moscow, which had at least prepared them for today.

Wang Xueqing smiled. "Not yet. He's only going to take part in the election for now. But his chances of winning are extremely high. Still, as long as things haven't been finalized, there's always a possibility of change."
Wang Ye's mother had come back to her senses as well. She cautiously asked, "If Wang Ye really becomes... that, what effect will it have on us? Why has the state sent so many people to protect us? Is someone trying to assassinate us?! Ah, and is Wang Ye in danger right now?!"
Clearly, his mother had remembered certain television drama plots. In those dramas, whenever princes fought over the throne, didn't they resort to every possible means? Assassinations, poisonings—those things were all too common!
