"If it's so difficult to trust me then, what about you? How disappointing, even after serving here for two decades, you're still a middle man. I thought you'll be promoted or higher ranked, at least to be the underboss of State F. Tsk, still no progress, Huh?" Louis laughed mockingly at the man in front of him.
Li Louwu could only grind his teeth and savor the sourness spread in his mouth after been mocked like this. Sincerely, he was serving the underworld for so long yet he couldn't make his own notable place or acquire a position higher like second in command. Although, he came in contact with the underworld when he was imprisoned and sentenced for ten years of jail, falsely accused of 'killing with intent'.
Anyhow, he knew by the time he will be released from prison there won't be anything left for him. And as expected. His Li Empire was thrown into an abyss which has no end and reviving it might take some miracle to happen.
