Chapter 33: Makes Sense
Chapter 33: Makes Sense
The ride-hailing car quickly brought the three of them to a magnificent building by the river.
If the driver hadn't warned Chen Qi beforehand that this was a private club, Chen Qi would probably have suspected that some landlord had opened his home here.
A huge golden signboard came into his view.
"Ten Thousand Demons Club"
Chen Qi wasn't joking; this was a truly prestigious brand, and the four large characters seemed to be made of real gold.
He dared not imagine how much money he could make if he removed even a single character from it.
In front of the club's glass doors, several women dressed in white silk cheongsams stood in two rows, bowing and greeting the three men as if welcoming feudal lords in ancient times, and chanting in unison, "Welcome to the Ten Thousand Demons Club~"
A sales supervisor in a suit, wearing a bow tie and a walkie-talkie hanging from his shoulder, approached and said solicitously, "Hello, gentlemen. Did you make any appointments for today?"
Chen Qi didn't reply. To be honest, he really wanted to ask the supervisor if there was any place to "relax" here, but looking at Shen Nianxu rushing ahead, Chen Qi felt it was better to keep quiet.
"I want to see your boss." Shen Nianxu was too lazy to argue with the supervisor and directly stated her purpose.
The supervisor looked embarrassed. "Excuse me, sir, may I ask who you are...?"
Shen Nianxu stared at the supervisor and said, "Shen Nianxu from the bookstore, don't you recognize me?"
"N-no... I don't know her," the supervisor replied. She was clearly an ordinary person working at the club, unfamiliar with the world of cultivators, and naturally didn't recognize Shen Nianxu. All she could tell was that she was a very beautiful woman. "May I ask what your relationship is with our boss...?"
Shen Nianxu sighed and said, "Get the person in charge of your department out here today."
"I'm the foreman in charge today."
"What I mean is, the person who's going to solve your problem," Shen Nianxu didn't want to get entangled with an ordinary person for too long, "I'm giving you ten seconds. If your boss or someone in charge doesn't come out soon, I'm going to cause trouble!"
The supervisor was immediately embarrassed. "This customer... please calm down. If this continues, we'll have to call the police."
Shen Nianxu's hair suddenly began to flutter, "Ten..."
Supervisor: "This guest..."
At that moment, a rather unremarkable woman emerged from among the group of waitresses who had been standing in front of the door.
"Alright, Miss Shen, please calm down," the woman, dressed in a long cheongsam, walked gracefully to Shen Nianxu and said softly, "We're in business after all. If you pull this kind of stunt, how can we do any business?"
Chen Qi then noticed the woman's presence. Strangely, the woman was very beautiful. Although she wasn't quite at Shen Nianxu's level, she always exuded a captivating charm that men found hard to resist.
In a crowd, this woman would obviously attract more attention than Shen Nianxu.
After all, everyone likes beautiful women, but once you reach a certain level, no matter how beautiful they are, they all seem the same to everyone.
That alluring charm in her every gesture is irreplaceable and attracts attention far more than mere physical appearance.
"You still know you're running a business?" Shen Nianxu frowned slightly. "Do I need to tell you myself what your Ten Thousand Demons Guild has been doing?"
The woman's eyes flickered slightly, then she gestured for them to go inside and talk. "It's not very convenient to talk outside."
Shen Nianxu did not refuse and strode into the gate of the Ten Thousand Demons Club.
Chen Qi and Qin Bo exchanged a glance behind them and quickly followed.
The woman brushed past Chen Qi and Qin Bo, her gaze lingering on them for a moment, a strange glint flashing in her foxy eyes.
After the four entered the club, the manager looked incredulous and asked the female waitresses at the door, "Wh...what's going on?"
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask," one of the waiters answered his question in a cold voice. "Just do your job."
The foreman was silent for a moment.
On his first day at work, he received a warning from his senior colleague.
Working at the Wan Yao Club requires you to do one thing.
That means "do more and ask fewer questions".
In particular, never ask about the identity of the guests, and never have too much conversation with the particularly beautiful women in the Wan Yao Club.
Although the foreman didn't know why, he listened to the suggestion from his senior.
The voluntary resignation rate of employees at Wanyao Club is 0%, but the dismissal rate is as high as 90%. The supervisors who have been with the company for about one or two years must have been practicing this principle to have persisted until now.
……
Inside the Wan Yao Club, the woman led the three to the elevator and then pressed the button to go to the basement.
While waiting for the elevator to slowly descend, the woman turned around, looked at Qin Bo behind her, and asked, "Young Master Qin from Qin's Firm, right? I've often heard rumors about you."
Qin Bo replied with a straight face, "Really? That's an honor indeed."
Chen Qi: "Why are you staring at me?"
During his conversation with the woman, Qin Bo never made eye contact with her, keeping his eyes fixed on Chen Qi the entire time, which made Chen Qi feel a little uneasy.
The woman wasn't annoyed by this and continued to turn to Chen Qi, "This... must be the new owner of the bookstore, right? I can tell at a glance, you're truly an exceptional person. Is this your first time visiting our Wan Yao Club?"
Before Chen Qi could reply, Shen Nianxu, as if protecting her own, pulled Chen Qi to her side and squeezed herself between the two of them.
"Hey Ning, don't blame me for not warning you," Shen Nianxu stared coldly at the woman, "It's one thing if you tempt other customers, but if you lay a hand on the people at our bookstore, don't blame me for being impolite."
The elevator reached the basement level, and the woman chuckled softly. "Then I really need to be careful. After all, everyone knows how short-tempered you and the previous owner of the bookstore were."
As the elevator doors slowly opened, the first thing that entered Chen Qi's senses was a fragrance.
A familiar fragrance, mixed with a strange, foul smell, which was exactly the scent he had smelled in the sachet before.
Outside the elevator doors was a vast, secluded paradise.
A huge indoor garden comes into view. The center of the garden has been hollowed out and turned into a swimming pool filled with water. Countless men and women wander around this indoor garden. If it were filmed, their faces would have to be blurred.
What's even stranger is that every woman here has some animalistic features, like cat ears or dog ears, which are not worth mentioning at all.
There are even people here!
"Holy crap!" Chen Qi nudged Qin Bo in the ribs with his elbow. "Did you see that? There's some really exciting entertainment here!"
Qin Bo tried his best not to make eye contact with any of the women present, keeping a straight face the whole time. "Ahem... I don't want to see."
Just as Chen Qi was about to say something, Shen Nianxu, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and glared at him.
Chen Qi: "Tsk, what's the emergency number again? A gentleman like me can't stand this kind of scene. I have to report it!"
The woman quickly said in a voice so sweet it was almost sickening, "No! We've already been very restrained. This only happens on the basement level. The upstairs is all legitimate stuff!"
"Formal content?" Chen Qi's eyes sharpened.
"Whether it's legitimate or not, I'll only know after I experience it."
woman:"……"
Shen Nianxu: "..."
Qin Bo: "That makes sense."
