Chapter 934 A Mere Supplicant (2/2)

”Mr. Li, you must have misunderstood.” Darren wore a faint smile with a tyrannical and haughty look on his face, as if he was a king and everyone should throw themselves down at his feet in the flat submissive posture of a mere supplicant.

In truth, Darren should have been the one currying favor with Mr. Li. However, all of a sudden, Mr. Li found himself feeling like a chessman in Darren's hands at th
