Although Rosiana's reminder made Wang Ye realize that he had handled this matter somewhat inappropriately.
After all, Khovchenko was an independent-minded person, not his subordinate. He had no need to act according to Wang Ye's arrangements.
But he had already discussed this with the Kremlin. Was he supposed to go back on it now?
The arrow was already on the bowstring. It had to be fired!
If he truly sat down and talked things over with Khovchenko, Wang Ye felt that Khovchenko would still be able to accept it. After all, this was the position of Moscow Oblast governor, unquestionably one of great authority and prestige.
The only question was whether he would accept it willingly.
Would this matter create resentment between them...
As Wang Ye pondered, Rosiana studied his expression and spoke again. "Actually, aside from Uncle, have you considered whether there might be someone more suitable to compete for this position?"
Someone more suitable?
Wang Ye frowned and thought for a while, but he could not come up with anyone better.
After all, this time they would be going head-to-head with Luzhkov, competing for an extremely important position.
Anyone lacking sufficient seniority or prestige simply was not qualified!
Khovchenko was the only one who fit the bill. He had formed a faction and participated in the presidential election. Though he had ultimately lost, he had at least made it into the final round.
He was still highly recognizable among voters across the country.
That was why he was qualified to compete with Luzhkov. But even so, without Wang Ye backing him, Khovchenko probably would not be able to beat Luzhkov...
Seeing that Wang Ye had remained silent for so long, Rosiana grew a little anxious. She cautiously asked, "Misha, what do you think of me?"
