Hearing Elder Shen speak like that, Wufu laughed. She wasn't sure if the old man aimed to win big with little or was just bursting with confidence. Either way, his approach was well-suited to stone gambling.
After all, gambling relies on luck and skill, doesn't it?
If one revealed their hand beforehand, it wouldn't count as gambling. As for Elder Shen's demeanor?
Wufu glanced over; the elderly man had salt-and-pepper hair and was of advanced age. His eyes were calm, without much stir. Perhaps he had seen through it all over the years?
She didn't try to guess too much about the old man's thoughts and feelings but focused her gaze on the stone instead.
In her previous life, she was no stranger to gambling on stones. She had even taken part in many high-stakes games. That thrill was something only those in the business could understand: win and you achieve wealth and glory; lose and you face utter ruin—all dependent on luck and experience.
