Chu Ge's scrutinizing gaze fell on the man lying on the sofa. He was slim, with a listless demeanor, looking quite sickly as if he were unwell.
On the coffee table in front of him, sat the waste stone from which Chu Ge and Wei Xiang had absorbed Spiritual Energy during their gambling stone session.
Chu Ge slightly narrowed his eyes, a hint of surprise flickering in them.
The man on the sofa glanced at Chu Ge, chuckled softly, and said, "Sir, does this waste stone look familiar to you?"
Chu Ge's gaze became focused as he pondered, could it be that he has seen through something?
"What do you mean?"
Chu Ge asked.
The man on the sofa toyed with his fingers and said quietly, "My name is Zhang Tao, I'm the actual boss of this Gambling Stone Field."
Zhang Tao slowly raised his hand to see Chu Ge and said, "Mr. Chu, I've heard of your reputation in Capital City. But I'm curious if your fame relies solely on these unsavory methods?"
