Chapter 50: Chapter 50 Humble
Liam saw Mark lower his head and then raise the wine glass using both hands respectfully and said in a rather admiring tone, "Brother Liam is really amazing, I truly admire you. Just now, Brother Liam, I was really surprised by your piano skills. I never thought that the piano could be played like that. It really was an eye-opener for everyone!"
"I have been playing the piano for a long time and have never seen anyone play like Brother Liam. I admire people like you the most!"
"Before, I might have done something that Brother Liam misunderstood and made you a little unhappy. So I wanted to apologize and pay my respects to Brother Liam. Let me offer you a toast. Let us both have a good time. How is that?"
Mark's posture at this time was very low. His words were so apologetic. On his face was a trace of sincerity, shame, and respect.
It seemed to really accept defeat and want to make peace.
Liam looked at Mark slightly.
In Mark's acting, be it in his movements, behaviour, his tone, there weren't any flaws at all.
It seemed like because of too much admiration and the unbearable pressure of Liam, Mark sincerely apologized and wanted to make peace.
But Liam knew very well that no matter how well Mark acted, everything was just a show.
Liam's understanding of Mark's character is probably better than Mark knew himself in many aspects.
With Mark's unrestrained and rebellious character, there is no way he would lower his head sincerely just like now.
Since Mark intentionally did it, he definitely has a plan. There is a high likelihood that it is a conspiracy to target Liam.
However, Mark's posture right now is really very low, even showing a little bit of inferiority. If Liam doesn't agree to make peace, he would look bad in front of all the people present there.
In addition, emphasis is easy to see, while negative behaviours are hard to defend. Liam doesn't mind watching what Mark's conspiracies are so that he can deploy his defences and plan his counterattacks.
Of course, even though he intends to pretend to accept Mark's apology, Liam still wants to make him lower his head for a little while.
Liam did not refuse instead just stared at Mark who was currently lowering his head.
Liam's movement was neither to accept nor reject Mark's apology which made Mark very embarrassed.
Mark just bowed his head for two to three seconds.
He couldn't stand it anymore, so he raised his head and said with a humble expression on his face: "Brother Liam if you are done then let me do it first."
After speaking, Mark drank the wine and directly stretched out his hand for a handshake.
This time, Liam also stretched out his hand and shook Mark's hand gently. The reason why Liam stretched out his hand was because he knew exactly what Mark was trying to do.
During the handshake, Mark's face was ecstatic.
To others, it seemed Mark was happy because of Liam's forgiveness. Only Liam knew how fake Mark's smile was.
Holding his cup, he discreetly smelled the hand he just shook with Mark.
Sure enough, there is a very faint smell that can hardly be recognized without carefully smelling. Recognizing the fragrance, Liam knew what Mark put and transferred it into his hands.
To be more specific, Liam already knew when he shook hands with Mark because this was Mark's usual trick.
Poisoning!
Yes, he usually makes use of poison.
For those people who opposed him and whom he can't handle directly, will be quietly killed by his poison.
For example, he pretends to be humble and offers a toast, and a handshake.
He uses the handshake as his golden opportunity to transfer poison into Liam's hand.
He did this because he was afraid to be discovered by Liam and be investigated and have to take responsibility afterwards. After all, since they are at the banquet where there are a lot of people, there is also a lot of surveillance and security around.
So, the poison he gave to Liam was not so lethal, it was also colourless and tasteless.
This poison will make Liam's limbs weak, he will also have a fever and experience slurred speech.
Liam was not only aware that Mark administered the poisonous medicine, but he also knew how to counter it.
Not to mention that this kind of poison is the most powerful poison that Mark can use against him without killing him.
Although he knew everything well, he still pretended not to know anything and appeared satisfied with Mark's initiative to seek peace.
He even seemed proud of him and so patted Mark on the shoulder.
But Mark did not notice that when Liam patted his shoulder some poisonous powder flew out from Liam's fingers and coated his neck.
Liam knew everything that Mark wanted to do.
But Mark didn't know and thought that Liam hadn't found out anything about it yet and that he was completely left in the dark.
Seeing Liam's slightly complacent appearance, Mark couldn't help laughing.
Make him, Mark Zen, Lower his head?
That is simply impossible!
What Mark did just now was to try to poison him. Liam cannot be killed by such medicine though.
This time, Mark intends to obtain the interest first.
In the future, he will surely think of ways to slowly kill Liam.
But the concentration of the poison Mark just applied to Liam's hand was not light. It can make a person feel pungent and weak, just like a usual fever does.
And this will last for three to four days. Thinking of the torture that awaits Liam, Mark felt a little refreshed.
After his goal is achieved, Mark would eventually not stay any longer.
The humble expression on his face was swept away, then turned around and left. But when he turned around, Mark did not notice that Liam patted him in the shoulder.
Mark unknowingly scratched his slightly itchy neck and smiled.
Looking at Mark who left with a smile on his face, a smirk appeared on Liam's handsome face.
