A long silence. Shen Yi's mind was spinning violently.
Gu Shen plans to play with Zhao Chongyuan, and Zhao Chongyuan must be the one to lose. This plan is definitely not something that can be thought up in a short time. In the days he didn't know, Gu Shen's strategy had extended to such a distant future. The depth of its layout is astounding.
But what followed was fear. It was the fear of the risks Gu Shen would take.
"Gu Shen." He spoke, his voice much deeper than before, "You are well aware of the cunning of your opponent and the importance of reputation. Then you should know that you will face the same risks when executing such a plan."
"One wrong move and you lose everything. It will eventually come back to bite you."
"You can't risk your research results." Shen Yi's voice was very low, but every word was ringing. "Your hard work over the years, your patents, and your international reputation are not tools to play with him."
"Besides, there is no room for error in drug research. Once it fails, what will happen to your new drug? What will happen to the patients who are waiting for you to save their lives?"
He looked at Gu Shen, with anxiety and worry in his eyes, and something that rarely appeared in him. Panic.
"I don't allow you to risk your divine enlightenment. I don't allow you to risk yourself."
Gu Shen felt warm in his heart. Shen Yi always puts him first. But this rare strong tone also let him know that it would be difficult to persuade Shen Yi to agree.
"I'm talking about the worst case scenario." Gu Shen stretched out, trying to ease the tense atmosphere with a relaxed attitude, "The actual situation is better than expected."
"No."
Intention: The idea comes from Gu Shen's ten years of hard work and layout, just so that Shen Yi can follow his heart in the face of choices.
