"Sir."
At this moment, Scott spoke, hesitating.
As Ian curiously raised his head and looked at him, Scott confessed, "I'm actually still a bit afraid."
"You said that after you leave, all matters in Xiawei Territory will be entrusted to me to handle... You have confidence in me, but I'm not so confident in myself."
"Interesting."
Ian commented, "What are you not confident about? Even if you really lack confidence, do you think I have someone else to choose?"
"Green Tide... uh, no, his thinking is too simple." Scott thought for a moment, somewhat uncertain, "Mr. Gu Ying and Old Farrel? Especially Mr. Gu Ying, he is truly a very smart person. Without his help, I couldn't have taught myself mathematics and biology, and he's quite knowledgeable about alchemy and inscriptions, almost as learned as you, sir."
"That's an exaggeration; in specific areas, I sometimes need to consult Gu Ying. I just have broad but shallow knowledge."
