How come I was born a deity?

Chapter 47: It turns out he's Senior Chen's son

Seemingly hearing the commotion downstairs, Hu Yao also ran out from the second floor and went down the stairs, almost tripping in the process.

"Good morning!" Hu Yao greeted Chen Qi and Qin Bo, then saw Sun Yiyan, whom she had kicked out yesterday. "It's you! You stinking fishmonger!"

Chen Qi slapped Hu Yao on the head. "What are you saying?"

"Waaah..." Hu Yao clutched her head.

"No job is inherently superior or inferior. How could you say such a thing?" Chen Qi said in a somewhat reproachful tone. "Anyone who earns a living through sweat and effort deserves respect. Apologize to all ordinary people in related industries!"

With tears welling in her eyes, Hu Yao said, "I'm sorry..."

Sun Yiyan: "..."

Hey guys, can you apologize to me first? Isn't she obviously insulting me?

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh," Chen Qi straightened his clothes and extended his hand. "Mr. Sun, right? Let me introduce myself. I'm the current owner of the bookstore, and my name is Chen Qi."

Sun Yiyan glanced at Chen Qi, then at Qin Bo.

Qin Bo: "He is indeed the boss; I am the CEO."

"The CEO of the bookstore!" Sun Yiyan's eyes widened, and she quickly grabbed Qin Bo's hand. "I didn't expect Qin Bo from Qin's Firm to join the bookstore. It's an honor to meet you here. How's your brother doing lately?"

Chen Qi: "..."

Qin Bo said with a stern face, "They're still alive and well."

Sun Yiyan looked regretful, "That's such a pity..."

Qin Bo nodded. "It is indeed a pity."

Chen Qi: "..."

"Oh, right," Qin Bo added, "Chen Fuzhou is his father."

Sun Yiyan: "..."

He glanced at Qin Bo first, then at Chen Qi, and asked, seemingly without much confidence, "You mean... Chen Fuzhou, the one who cut through the Black Mountain with a single sword strike?"

Qin Bo countered, "Is there another Chen Fuzhou in the cultivation world?"

"Oh dear," Sun Yiyan suddenly smiled shyly and grabbed Chen Qi's hand, which was suspended in mid-air. "I'm so sorry, look at the mess this has made. So you're Senior Chen's son. You're quite the handsome young man."

This change in attitude is too drastic.

Chen Qi wasn't annoyed. He hadn't really made a name for himself yet, and he didn't intend to use the bookstore to gain fame.

"Please come in. What's the point of chatting outside all this time? It's cold."

Sun Yiyan nodded, "It's alright. Compared to our Bincheng, Qingcheng is quite warm."

Entering the bookstore, Shen Nianxu finally came downstairs.

She usually goes out with a bare face and is too lazy to put on makeup, so she was probably just sleeping in at home.

"Huh?" Shen Nianxu noticed Sun Yiyan sitting at the bar and was somewhat surprised. "What are you doing here?"

When Sun Yiyan saw Shen Nianxu, her expression stiffened, clearly indicating some unpleasant past. "I... I just came to see Senior Wang, I didn't intend to do anything else."

Shen Nianxu muttered, "What you're doing is none of my business..."

Qin Bo, who was standing nearby, added: "Sun Yiyan came to Qingcheng once before. At that time, he was young and impetuous, and the Sun family spoiled him, which made him a spoiled young master. As a result, he caused trouble in the bookstore."

Chen Qi immediately understood the seriousness of the problem. "It's obvious that he was severely beaten up by Shen Nianxu and the previous boss."

"No," Qin Bo corrected, "Shen Nianxu pulled down his pants, put him in a set of Queshi diapers, and then hung him upside down on a street lamp, letting people watch for three hours."

Chen Qi: "..."

Pampers' move is too ruthless.

"Ahem," Sun Yiyan cleared her throat, seemingly having overheard Qin Bo and Chen Qi sharing their information, and steered the conversation back on track. "These old matters are no longer important. Actually, I also have some things to discuss with your bookstore."

Chen Qi leaned against the bar and sat on a small round stool, asking, "What's the matter? As long as there's money, everything is negotiable."

Sun Yiyan glanced in Shen Nianxu's direction, then looked at Chen Qi. "Could we have a drink first? I've been guarding the door for hours."

"Okay," Chen Qi waved, "Little Yao!"

Hu Yao peeked half her head out from behind the bar counter. "What's wrong?"

"Serve the tea to the guests!"

"oh."

Hu Yao responded quietly and went to make tea for Sun Yiyan.

"That's how it is," Sun Yiyan said. "To be honest, I used to be a bit too arrogant and domineering. My family members also doted on me, so they didn't dare to say too much."

"But ever since I returned home after the battle of Qingcheng, I've become a completely different person!"

Chen Qi gasped. "Like poop? That's a bit scary."

Sun Yiyan ignored Chen Qi's tired joke and continued, "At the time, my parents and elders were incredulous. They felt that Qingcheng was a blessed place for our Sun family, so when they heard that this year's newcomer evaluation was being held in Qingcheng, they immediately sent a newcomer over..."

At this point, Chen Qi immediately understood Sun Yiyan's meaning, and his eyes turned lewd. "So, your Sun family has raised another纨绔 (spoiled brat), and you want to use our bookstore to correct his character and help him get back on the right track, is that right?"

Sun Yiyan gave an awkward laugh, "It's not that you can't understand it that way..."

"I understand what you mean," Chen Qi nodded. "If children aren't properly educated when they're young, then when they grow up, society will have to teach them. I can understand that."

"These things are trivial to us, but..."

Sun Yiyan subconsciously pressed for an answer: "But what?"

Shen Nianxu, leaning against the bar wall, held a glass of water in her hand and glanced at Chen Qi.

"However, you should also know that our bookstore hasn't been doing very well lately. If you were willing to pay a 'small' dream guarantee deposit, this little matter would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?"

Dream guarantee fund?

Sun Yiyan didn't understand what Chen Qi was saying, but Shen Nianxu, who was leaning against the bar, suddenly smiled with satisfaction.

"What dream guarantee? I can give you money if you want," Sun Yiyan replied. "As long as you can correct your temperament, the Sun family is willing to spend a fortune!"

"Hey, hey, hey!" Chen Qi immediately interrupted Sun Yiyan, "Our bookstore never does anything for money, don't talk nonsense! This dream guarantee fund is a manifestation of your Sun family's kindness, after all, our bookstore has always allowed children to come and read books for free."

"If our bookstore goes bankrupt due to management problems, who will protect the dreams of children?"

"So, this is what you call a dream guarantee fund!"

Qin Bo: "How come I remember this thing being called a hospital construction fee?"

Chen Qi: "CEO, shut up. The boss is trying to get sponsorships, or you'll end up on the streets with Hu and Yao."

Qin Bo: "Okay."
