As soon as he finished speaking, Old Master Zou let out a cold laugh.
"Me? Ha! I am but a mere ephemeral being in this vast world. All things are like a chess game, and I am merely a chess piece. When it comes to the title of 'Gambling King,' there is only one true king in the three provinces of the Northeast, and that is Oliver..."
"What I wish to convey is that these gambling kings from various regions are intertwined—there is a sharing of interests among them. Most hold stakes in one another's ventures, thriving together..."
I nodded slightly, recalling that Sister Rose had shared similar insights with me during my time in Fengtian.
At this juncture, Old Master Zou appeared somewhat weary.
Gazing at me, he continued,
"You've been curious about who arranged for me to send someone to the airport that day. Who, in turn, caused the unfortunate Meilu to return to his small hometown?"
Meilu?
I was momentarily taken aback.
