Chapter 452 Deep Virtual Reality 280

"Big brother, are we really leaving no way out?" Shen Xiuying didn't quite agree with Shen Chen's decision. Although she had barely managed to control the Shen family now, it would be a problem if most of her strength was used to fight against those conglomerates that were on par with the Shen family.

As a businesswoman, she didn't think this was a wise decision. She never put all her eggs in one basket, but now Shen Chen seemed to be betting everything on Xie Ning.

She admitted that Xie Ning, as an engineer, had secretly built a pharmaceutical company and even swallowed up Alibo Pharmaceutical, the local power in Surabiya City. He was indeed a formidable figure and should not be underestimated.

She had indeed misjudged him. Although she didn't know how Xie Ning had evaded her investigation, this incident made Shen Xiuya feel frustrated for the first time. She hadn't expected someone to be so cautious as to pretend to be someone else when talking to others.

However, Shen Xiuying still did not believe that Xie Ning's strength was enough to overthrow such a large conglomerate. Even a rotten tree has its roots deeply embedded in the soil, making it difficult to uproot.

Even though she controlled most of the power of the Shen Group, and even with Shen Chen's help, she wouldn't dare to say that she could topple the giant tree that the entire Federation had supported.

Shen Chen didn't reply, only flipping through the report in his hand. Only after Shen Xiuya tapped the table again did he lift his eyelids and say without any emotion, "Her strength is even greater than you think, Xiaoya. Although I really don't want to admit it, Awakened Ones have innate talents. They are born with unparalleled power."

Ordinary people can only rely on technology to break through their own limits and overcome the challenges of their environment.

Perhaps there was sweat and toil involved, but tireless effort day and night is merely the initial state of those who have awakened.

"No!" Shen Xiuying didn't want to hear that.

"Brother, how many Awakened Ones have you encountered along the way? Quite a few! They are geniuses, but only you have made it to the end, only you have reached this position. Everyone in this world admires you."

She absolutely refused to admit that her older brother was inferior to Xie Ning!

Her older brother is always the best and the most amazing!

Seeing Shen Xiuying's tears, Shen Chen sighed, "I'm not denying my efforts and value. I just want you to know that Ms. Xie is very good, and she is worth my all-or-nothing choice."

Even though he and Xie Ning didn't communicate much on a daily basis, they were both intelligent people, and they understood each other immediately.

He knew more inside information than Shen Xiuying did.

Although he was occasionally amazed by Xie Ning's rapid growth, Shen Chen could see the hard work behind Xie Ning's success; she had climbed to the top step by step.

Since they share the same goals, why can't they place more trust in each other?

What Xie Ning wanted to do was also what he wanted to do, except that his methods were more ruthless than Xie Ning's. He was thinking about how to achieve his goal faster, and as for other sacrifices... they were all unavoidable, and it didn't matter whether there were more or less.

"I don't believe her, but I believe you." Shen Xiuying rubbed her face, her expression resolute. If she lost the bet, she could just start over. Even penniless, she could still navigate the market!

Shen Chen couldn't bear to look at the documents in his hand anymore. He walked to the window and looked at the rain falling outside through the transparent glass.

He was never valued by his father, and his mother raised him and his sister alone from a young age. Although they did not suffer from poverty, they were no less tormented by the powerful and wealthy.
