How come I was born a deity?

Chapter 32: This is too sinful

"Welcome to the company." Standing across from Qin Bo at the bar, Chen Qi opened a bottle of Coke and extended his hand to him.

Qin Bo shook hands with Chen Qi, then picked up his Coke and took a sip as a sign of respect.

"Speaking of which," Hu Yao, who was holding a strawberry bear, walked over and asked, "What's the name of our bookstore? I think I've only ever heard the word 'bookstore,' but I've never heard the name."

Chen Qi also realized the problem; he seemed to have never seen the bookstore's sign before.

Shen Nianxu looked slightly embarrassed, while Qin Bo took out his notebook, flipped through a few pages and said, "The bookstore has never had a name since it was founded. It is said that this was a strategic consideration of the previous owner, who believed that 'no name is the best name'."

"The end result was that no one knew the name of the bookstore at all. Even the previous owner and Miss Shen's arrogance spread, but the name of the bookstore did not."

Chen Qi turned to look at Shen Nianxu, "Is this true?"

Shen Nianxu nodded helplessly, "That's right, I'm terrible at naming things too, so it's just been like this all along."

"From my perspective, the bookstore really needs a name," Qin Bo said. "A name that is catchy and well-known can help increase the bookstore's revenue and expand its influence in the cultivation world."

"It's like when people mention a mustache, they think of..."

Chen Qi quickly raised his hand to interrupt him, "Wait a minute, what you said is a bit too sensitive. Let's not give any more examples. I already understand what you mean."

"Naming is indeed very important, but we can put that aside for now. We have something more important to do today."

Chen Qi clearly remembered the task Wang Shande had entrusted to them yesterday, since there was money to be made.

"Oh right," Shen Nianxu remembered, staring at Chen Qi's face for a long time before asking in confusion, "Did you...sleep well last night?"

"I'm fine, what's wrong?"

Chen Qi didn't understand what Shen Nianxu meant by her question, so he answered truthfully.

Shen Nianxu was full of questions and said, "Can you take that sachet out and let me see it?"

He took the sachet out of his pocket and handed it to Shen Nianxu, who stared at it for a long time before tilting her head.

"Huh? Where did the ghostly aura go?"

"Ghostly aura?" Chen Qi was hearing this term for the first time. "What does it mean?"

Qin Bo opened his notebook again. "The so-called ghost energy is a kind of power that ghosts possess. Where there is ghost energy, there are usually ghosts."

Chen Qi's eyes widened in disbelief. "There's a ghost inside this sachet!"

"It was there before; I felt it yesterday," Shen Nianxu scratched her head. "How did it suddenly disappear? What did you do to it?"

"I don't know," Chen Qi shook his head honestly. "Yesterday I just cultivated as usual, and before going to sleep I put the sachet and the luminous pearl on the bedside table and then went to sleep."

"I put them in my pocket and brought them over this morning when I got up. Didn't I do anything with them?"

Listening to Chen Qi's description, it seemed that there was nothing unusual, but how could the ghostly aura on it suddenly disappear?

Shen Nianxu was completely baffled, but when she thought about how it happened to Chen Qi, everything suddenly made sense.

After all, he already has that terrifying talent, so what else is there to say?

"So, what exactly is this thing?" Chen Qi asked. "Yesterday you told me that you'd find out today why this is so difficult to deal with. It's not because it's haunted, is it?"

Shen Nianxu rubbed her forehead. "I don't know how to explain this to you right now... Oh well, I've already accepted the request, so I can only bite the bullet and do it."

As she spoke, Shen Nianxu patted Hu Yao's head and said, "You can stay in the shop and mind the store. I already explained the work at the bookstore to you last night, right?"

"Hmm!" Hu Yao nodded like a chick pecking at rice. "Reading is free, and it costs ten yuan to use the toilet, but if you order a drink, using the toilet is free!"

"Then, if you want to buy books, pay according to the price on the back of the barcode; for drinks, pay according to the bar's price list!"

Shen Nianxu patted Hu Yao's head with satisfaction. "Hmm, you're really smart. I'll leave the shop to you. If anything happens, just call this number from the landline on the second floor."

As she spoke, Shen Nianxu handed Hu Yao a slip of paper with a number that Chen Qi had never seen before written on it.

"Whose phone number is that?" Chen Qi asked Qin Bo.

Qin Bo didn't even glance at it before answering, "It's Senior Wang Shande's number."

"No, you didn't even look at it, how do you know whose number it is?"

"You don't need to worry about that."

"..."

After explaining everything to Hu Yao, Shen Nianxu led Chen Qi and Qin Bo to the shop entrance.

Chen Qi pointed at Qin Bo, "Should we take him along?"

"Of course," Shen Nianxu nodded, "I wouldn't feel comfortable letting him stay with Hu Yao."

Qin Bo didn't speak, but Chen Qi looked confused. "Why? Yesterday, it was Boss Qin and Granny Qin who were hostile towards us, it had nothing to do with him, right?"

"Heh," Shen Nianxu sneered, "Do you still remember that little girl you saw yesterday, the one in the cheongsam with her hair in a bun?"

Chen Qi nodded. "I remember. What's wrong?"

"That young girl is the fiancée of the second son of the Qin family."

Chen Qi: "..."

What the hell!

That's so sinful!

……

They hailed a ride-hailing car on the roadside. Shen Nianxu sat in the passenger seat, while Chen Qi and Qin Bo sat in the back.

"Miss, what's the last four digits of your license plate?"

Shen Nianxu gave the last four digits of her mobile phone number.

The car slowly started moving and drove along the lane. The driver glanced at the navigation and then smiled, "The three of you are here so early."

Chen Qi didn't know the destination, nor why the driver asked that question. "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing," the driver quickly explained, thinking he had offended the three of them. "I was just asking out of curiosity. This is the first time I've ever seen someone go to the club so early in the morning. I thought people only went there in the afternoon and evening."

where?

Clubhouse?

Chen Qi looked at Shen Nianxu with a horrified expression, "You actually took us to a place like this!"

Shen Nianxu rolled her eyes at him.

Sitting next to him, Qin Bo had a cold expression and said to Shen Nianxu, "So this is what it feels like to mentor a newcomer."

"You explain it to him," Shen Nianxu waved her hand, "I'm too tired."

"He'll know when he gets there. I'll explain when we get off the bus." Qin Bo put it tactfully, but in reality, it wasn't convenient to explain with a driver, an ordinary person, in the car.

Moreover, once Chen Qi arrived at that "club," he naturally understood its meaning.
