Facing Lin Yuan's rebuttal, Chen Changsheng clicked his tongue. "People say there is a kind of person called a born king."
"From the moment such people are born, they are destined to ascend to the highest position."
"But that conclusion is merely a paradox reverse-engineered after people already knew the answer."
"In my view, there is no such thing as a born king."
"A so-called king is merely a victor who has defeated countless opponents."
"If I designate someone to sit upon that supreme position, it is because within a limited time and a limited scope, he is the only most outstanding candidate I can select."
"But as time stretches on and the scope expands, he may not necessarily remain the most outstanding."
"To put it more plainly, my decision is merely a preliminary selection."
"The final outcome does not lie with us, but with you."
Looking into Chen Changsheng's clear eyes, Lin Yuan said word by word, "Young Master, may I say something somewhat presumptuous?"
"With me, you may speak freely."
"Of course, you may not curse me, because I would get angry."
"The person Young Master has chosen is naturally someone close to you. If one day I were to fight him, and he struck to kill me, whom would Young Master help?"
"Lin Yuan, have you gone mad?"
"How could you say something so rebellious!"
Hearing Lin Yuan's words, Lin Tianlang immediately rebuked him, then cupped his hands toward Chen Changsheng in apology.
"Young Master, my younger brother is young and ignorant. I beg you to be magnanimous and spare him this once."
Raising a hand to push Lin Tianlang aside, Chen Changsheng walked straight up to Lin Yuan and stared into his eyes.
"With ambitions this great, do you think I should keep you?"
