“Why? That’s impossible!” The stall owner exclaimed as he checked Yue Xin’s two cards. In the end, he concluded that the cards were indeed dealt from his hands.
Yue Xin yawned and let the stall owner check the cards before checking the table. She suddenly felt so tired and wanted to lie down and sleep immediately.
Han Wen was delighted to see the boss lose his composure. He leaned over and said scornfully, “Didn’t you just say that this is a game that depends on luck?
How is it impossible? Don’t tell me you… can’t afford to lose? No way, no way? You have no integrity!”
“That’s impossible! This round doesn’t count! You must have cheated. I won’t acknowledge it!” The stall owner said as he retreated. He actually didn’t want the chips and stall anymore and prepared to run away.
Yue Lingfeng immediately noticed the stall owner’s thoughts. He strode forward and blocked the stall owner’s path, “A loss is a loss.”
The stall owner said, “That’s impossible. I won’t recognize it since you cheated!”
Yue Lingfeng knew that it was useless to reason with such a scoundrel. He could only convince him with the truth. Moreover, he was also curious about how Yue Xin won. He was just curious.
“Yue Xin, tell him how you won just now.”
Yue Xin thought about it and felt even more sleepy. She yawned again and said, “It’s… ha… counting the cards.”
“Count the cards? How?” Han Wen was extremely curious. He suddenly leaned in front of Yue Xin, startling her and causing him to be slapped.
Han Wen covered his head. ‘I feel so wronged.’
Yue Xin shook her aching hand and explained, “Count the cards numerically from 2 to 6. 10 is -1, 7 to 9 is o. According to this logic, you can predict the remaining cards from the number of cards that have appeared and use mathematics to calculate the probability of the next round.”
Yue Xin paused for a moment and continued, “Moreover, the boss used a perfect shuffling method, so it’s easier to calculate.”
Han Wen was confounded. What did it feel like to listen to such knowledge which would slip out of his mind without leaving a trace?
When the boss heard Yue Xin’s explanation, he was stunned. It was not uncommon to see people memorizing cards in their line of work, but he really could not understand how to calculate cards. Was this really something a
human could do? Mental arithmetic? Without the help of any tools? What surprised him, even more, was that this little girl had seen through his shuffling method! This was an expert! He had made a lot of ill-gotten gains with this shuffling method, but up until now, this was the first time he had seen Yue Xin turn the tables!
Han Wen was a little stunned. He looked at Yue Xin in a daze. “Sister Xin, can you really calculate it?”
Yue Xin said, “Read more.” Many people in the prison liked gambling. There was even a building that was ranked according to gambling skills. There were countless ways to cheat in that building. If you couldn’t see through how others cheated, if you couldn’t control the entire situation without leaving any traces but relied purely on luck, you wouldn’t be able to win for the rest of your life.
“Yue Xin, the best way tor ordinary people is to stay away trom gambling.”
Yue Xin felt that Big Sister was right. An ordinary person like her should not gamble in her life. After taking the money, she should quickly go back to sleep!
Yue Xin staggered to the stall owner and reached out for the money.
The stall owner was no longer as shameless as before. Instead, he looked at Yue Xin with admiration and shouted crazily, “Master! Please take me as your disciple, Master!”
Yue Xin was dumbfounded. Was he crazy?
Yue Lingfeng stopped the crazy stall owner and said in a deep voice, “Behave yourself.” After he said that, he instinctively looked at Yue Xin to see if she was frightened.
Unexpectedly, Yue Xin’s expression did not change. Not only was she not frightened by the stall owner at all, but she also reached out even closer.
The little girl in front of him was wearing sportswear, but it was impossible to hide the golden light on her body. She looked like an immortal child from another world.
She opened her mouth and said softly, “Money.”
Yue Xin was anxious to death. The sun was shining on her butt. It was such a good day. It would be a waste of her life if she didn’t sleep!
However, this was the first time the stall owner had seen such exquisite gambling skills. How could he let it go? He continued to act shamelessly and refused to let go of Yue Xin. “As long as you accept me as your disciple, I’ll give you money immediately!”
Yue Lingfeng did not frown. Just as he was about to reject on Yue Xin’s behalf, he heard Yue Xin say in a cold voice, word by word, “You. Give. Money. First!”
Yue Lingfeng increased the strength in his hand appropriately. Before the stall owner could speak, he let out a wail.
When Yue Lingfeng saw that this person was in so much pain that he could not take it anymore, he relaxed a little. Even if he did not say anything, the meaning was very obvious..
