SB1 Visa vs Abandon Green card

Hey all,

I have my 2 years green card through marriage and it expires next month. I initially came to China for a business trip then Covid hit, now i've been here for 1 year and 2 months. I still have so much ties in the US: my wife, our rented house, my stuff, my company, my staff and i paid taxes 2019 and 2020.

My lawyer is giving me 2 options:

1- apply for SB1 visa

2- Abandon my green card and apply for 10 years one since it's been 3 years we're married.

My question: if i still need more time here in China, should i just abandon it and apply for a new one? Or should i try to apply for SB1 visa?
