Chapter 31 Stockholm Syndrome

On the eve of the election, the situation was calm across Donia, and the Provisional Government of Donia even allowed the United Nations to send observers to supervise the situation of polling sites in various places.

At 7:00 a.m. on January 3, the Donia general election officially kicked off. Donia voters lined up to vote at about 50,000 polling stations to elect members of the Republic's National Assembly, local governments and local councillors.

Zhang Sheng also went to a polling station to watch the fun. After all, he had never seen the national leader elected by the whole nation.

Zhang Sheng met the voters in a long queue at the polling station not far from the Third Public Hospital. After the vote, the voters' little fingers on their left hand would be painted with a blue mark, indicating that they had voted.

Judging from the voters' discussion, it seems that most residents in downtown Doniago are interested in the reorganized Democratic Party.

The results announced by the National Election Commission on January 6 were not unexpected. The Democratic Party won 317 of the 400 seats in the National Assembly, won the general election with an absolute advantage and could form a separate cabinet.

According to Donia's election law, Donia's new parliament will be established within thirty days after the election results are announced.

But because this was the first Dorian parliament to gain power in forty years, the parliament was established very quickly and soon approved the appointment of a new government, and a professor of economics from the University of Doniago was appointed Prime Minister of the new government.

In fact, judging from the appointment of the new cabinet, the so-called elected government and the former military government are just changing the soup and not changing the medicine.

...

In the evening, Zhang Sheng was invited to Ambassador Sun's study again.

Ambassador Sun sighed and talked about how unsuccessful the talks with Donia's new Prime Minister Kiquet were.

Zhang Sheng could hear that Prime Minister Kiquet had a very scholarly atmosphere and spoke public opinion in everything. He also told Ambassador Sun that the mining project originally signed with China should be reviewed and the consent of local residents should be obtained. Local residents should vote to decide whether the project should be carried out.

Because most local residents are worried that the project will cause local environmental pollution.

Zhang Sheng savored tea. This is how literati governed the country. A university professor with no political experience is passionate and idealistic. Although it is worthy of admiration, he does not know how to adapt to foreign affairs, and will sooner or later he will be bleeding.

"This project still needs to be facilitated by Mrs. Adeye. I will strive to create an opportunity for the ambassador and Mrs. Adeye to meet again." Zhang Sheng also knew in his heart why Ambassador Sun invited him to come.

"Okay, OK." Ambassador Sun smiled and nodded.

...

What Zhang Sheng did not expect was that when Ambassador Sun and Mrs. Adeye met, the presidential secretary named him and hoped that he could also participate.

Zhang Sheng naturally declined the behavior of Mrs. Adeye not playing according to the rules, but Ambassador Sun was obviously not surprised. He had seen some of the more absurd behaviors of African heads of state. What is this small request from the Presidential Palace of Donia?

In this way, Zhang Sheng had the honor to attend the meeting between Ambassador Sun and Mrs. Adeye.

The meeting between the two was in a relatively private reception room in the presidential residence. Without the presence of reporters, the topic was relaxed.

Mrs. Adeye was wearing a light gray formal dress, clean and capable, and had a different kind of bright colors, but it surprised Zhang Sheng. Obviously, Mrs. Adeye is definitely not the dark-hearted beauty he deals with when dealing with him.

Zhang Sheng sat aside and remained silent, but the discussions between Ambassador Sun and Mrs. Adeye were all in his ears.

Compared to Prime Minister Kiquet, Mrs. Adeye is familiar with the outside world. Speaking of the mining project invested by China that Prime Minister Kiquet wants to temporarily shelve, Mrs. Adeye smiled and said: "We will definitely listen to public opinion, but please rest assured Ambassador Sun. We will also do a good job in publicity and let the local people understand how important this project is to them."

Obviously she is very experienced and will never overturn the Prime Minister's opinion, but she also promised Ambassador Sun that she would do her best to make the matter happen.

Zhang Sheng listened next to him and sighed softly. Although according to the Donia Constitution, the president is only a false head of state, depending on the situation, I am afraid that Donia's military and political power will eventually fall into the hands of this woman. Prime Minister Kiquet wants to fight her, so there is no chance at all.

For such a country, what is the Constitution? It can be amended at any time to give the president more power.

The powerful neighbor in the north of my motherland, known as a democratic system, is even more a major Eurasian country. It seems to be enlightened, but doesn’t it do it often? What about these African countries?

At the end of the meeting, Mrs. Adeye smiled and asked Ambassador Sun whether she could stay Dr. Zhang for a while. Because she was not feeling well, although she took Dr. Zhang's medicine to treat her, she still had some questions.

Ambassador Sun naturally agreed with a smile, and several questions were answered satisfactorily. Ambassador Sun was extremely satisfied with the result of this meeting.

After Ambassador Sun left, Mrs. Adeye suggested to Zhang Sheng to take a walk in the garden.

Zhang Sheng agreed without any hesitation, thinking to himself that it depends on what the hell is you doing.

In the garden of the President's Residence, the lampposts are bright and the flowers are clustered. A green river of flowing water winds through the garden under the street lights, and nowhere is known.

Walking on the riverside, Mrs. Adeye didn't say anything for a long time.

Zhang Sheng didn't say anything, just followed her.

When he arrived at a bench along the riverside, Mrs. Adeye slowly sat down and made another gesture. The maids holding fruit drinks behind her bowed and retreated to the distance.

Zhang Sheng sat down beside her. There was no lamppost here, and in the dark shadows of the residence, you could see the stars in the sky.

Zhang Sheng nodded slightly and said, "The air in Africa is particularly good after the rain. The stars in the sky look more than in our country and brighter than in our country."

Mrs. Adeye was silent for a while and suddenly said, "When you first met me, you didn't expect that I would become President of Donia today, did you?"

Zhang Sheng nodded slightly and said, "When you first met me, you probably didn't expect today." He was moved by hearing Mrs. Adeye's words. The wonders of the world are indeed unpredictable.

But his words changed in Mrs. Adeye's ears. Mrs. Adeye bit her red lips and said, "I didn't expect you to be so bad!"

Zhang Sheng was silent, thinking that anyone could be more cruel and worse than you? But in this situation, I didn’t want to provoke war again. I would go back to China in a few days, and I didn’t want to make her trouble again. Besides, thinking about it carefully, Mrs. Adeye’s wealth was mostly saved by her, and she actually took a big advantage in her.

"Are you going back to China at the end of this month?" Mrs. Adeye suddenly asked.

Zhang Sheng nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely deliver the antidote on time."

Mrs. Adeye was silent again, and after a while, she said, "I believe in you."

This made Zhang Sheng stunned. He glanced at Mrs. Adeye, and then he felt that his relationship with her is very strange. He was originally a life-and-death enemy, so why did he sit on the bench and watch the stars? This is something that only lovers can do.
