Since everyone thinks this experiment is a success, it must be successful. You've done a great job. No one could do this until now." Then he turned to Rick and continued, "I believe the higher-ups must be anxiously waiting. Now isn't the tto argue about this. Anyway, let's submit the experimental results to them first. What do you think?" Rick seemed to have loosened up after hearing what Mike said. He turned to look at the tubes on the shelf beside him, then glanced at the computer again. "It's those, right?" Before Lily could speak, Rhea quickly responded, "Yes, those are the ones. I'll pack them right away." She feared Lily would say something untimely, so she took the lead. Lily watched from the side and did not move a muscle. She observed Rhea seal the tubes carefully and put them in a proper container.
"Done." Rhea handed the packed box to Rick.

I'm tiredNow that everything is a success, I can finally rest! I think you should go yourself. I won't accompany you." With that said, she smiled and walked away. However, Rick grabbed her arm as she walked past. "You can't leave." "What?" Meanwhile, Rhea and Mike looked at Rick in puzzlement, not understanding what he meant.
Mike said despite himself, "Rick, you-" Before he could finish, Rick shot him a stern look, and Mike immediately stopped talking.
