Chapter 24
After the negotiation, Zhu Jianhua proposed to go to lunch together and he wished the cooperation a smooth one .
Su Jing, Zhu Jianhua, Liu Rin, and Shen Jiayao walked out of the hall and were surrounded by some pet contest spectators and several media . They were asking Su Jing about the Dragon Li Cat . Some people still wanted to buy it, but Su Jing sent them out with the phrase “My Cat has been handed over to the perfect Pet Paradise . ”
The only thing that makes Su Jing wonder is that Zhao Jun, like a dog skin ointment, has followed them . Moreover, he volunteered to choose a Western restaurant . Su Jing and Zhu Jianhua did not know any good restaurants and Shan Jiayao agreed as well, so they agreed to eat there .
Just as they stepped out of Pet Paradise, a car suddenly stopped in front of them . A man and a woman got out of the car . When the beautiful girl saw Su Jing, she was greatly relieved and complained, “Su Jing, I finally found you . Why do you always hang up on me?”
“Hey, what are you looking for?” Su Jing glanced at the beautiful girl, Lin Cai’er, one of the apprentices of the foodie Zhou Xian . Su Jing couldn’t help but wonder . Su Jing couldn’t help wondering what the reason was for their teacher and apprentices to come to the Great Seafood Restaurant for two or three days . They had come to eat Su Jing dishes but they did not find him .
“Mr . Wang looking for you . ” Lin Cai’er pointed to the middle-aged man in his suit who was slightly fat .
“Mr . Su, hello . ” Mr . Wang politely reached out with his hand .
“Mr . Wang, hello . ” Su Jing shook hands with the other hand .
“Mr . Su, can we find a place to talk?” Mr . Wang asked .
“This… I’m going to have dinner with my friends . If you’re not in a hurry, I’ll talk about it later . Su Jing is somewhat confused about Lin Cai’er’s relationship with this Mr . Wang and he was even more confused about Mr . Wang’s purpose .
“That…” Mr . Wang obviously didn’t want to delay his matters but looking at Zhu Jianhua, Liu Rin and others, it was not a good idea to impose himself on others gathering .

“If you don’t like this, then let’s go to lunch together and you can talk after we finished eating . ” Zhu Jianhua suggested .
“If you don’t mind, I’d love to . ” Mr . Wang nodded and Su Jing, Liu Rin and Shen Jiayao all said they didn’t mind . They went to a western restaurant introduced by Zhao Jun, which was only one or two kilometers away from the perfect Pet Paradise .
This restaurant has a high style, luxurious decoration, clean and sanitary, polite waiters, and the overall feeling is very good .
After everyone sat down, they ordered one or two dishes and started to eat . It must be said that Mr . Wang’s participation inevitably made the atmosphere a little awkward . After all, Shen Jiayao had nothing to do with Mr . Wang and neither of them intended to talk to each other .
“This gentleman . ” Just then, a male waiter came to Su Jing .
“Is there something?” Su Jing wondered .
“I’m sorry, you have to dress properly to eat in this restaurant . ” The waiter said .
“You mean, I don’t dress properly?” Su Jing frowned .
“Yes, so please leave . ” The waiter continued . He used a polite word but his tone was far from being polite . This has caused many well-dressed people around to turn around and look scornful at Su Jing, who is wearing jeans and T-shirts .
“How can it be inappropriate? . ” Zhu Jianhua was angry .
“Don’t be so impulsive . Calm down . ” Su Jing spoke calmly, pressing Zhu Jianhua’s shoulder and pushing him back to his seat, glancing at the waiter and Zhao Jun, who watched this scene with a scornful look on his face and he suddenly understood everything . It’s not incomprehensible to say that the restaurant requires formal dress, but it’s unreasonable for the waiter not to stop him when he was at the door and wait until he’s seated and ordered his meal before driving away .
It seems that this restaurant’s staff is deliberately trying to embarrass him . There is no intersection between him and this restaurant before . There is no reason for them to deliberately harass him . The only possibility is Zhao Jun . What a good trick .
“Since they won’t let us stay, let’s go . ” Su Jing gently capped the pepper bottle, put it on the table, and stood up .

“Let’s go then . ” Mr . Wang put down his fork and did not eat the steak in front of him and stood up .
“This is wrong . ” Zhu Jianhua said with a sullen face .
“Ha-ha, some people can’t even dress properly, Coming with you disgraced us all . ” Zhao Jun, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly sneered at him coldly .
“Some people dress like dogs, but they’re just rats in human form . ” Su Jing responded faintly, flicking his finger under the table and a small piece of something fell precisely into Zhao Jun’s pocket .
“Well, the dog can’t spit out his ivory . ” Zhao Jun snorted coldly .
“Let’s go, Zhao Jun . Don’t follow me anymore . ” Shen Jiayao is quite clever and she had already guessed that this situation is made by Zhao Jun . She stood up and left with Su Jing, Zhu Jianhua, Liu Rin, Mr . Wang, and Lin Cai’er . Zhao Jun did not get up and laughed at Su Jing’s departure .
“This is my business card, give it to your boss . ” When he passed the waiter, Mr . Wang stuffed a business card in the waiter’s hand . The waiter was stunned and looked at the back of Mr . Wang and Su Jing . He hesitated for a moment and finally took this business card to his boss . When he entered the office, he saw Boss Li who was between 40 or 50 years old and he was sitting in an office chair, He said something to his secretary who was a woman that caused the said women to giggle .
“Boss . ” The waiter respectfully said .
“Did you kicked out the kid?” Boss Li asked .
“Yes . ” The male waiter nodded .
“Go and invite Young Master Zhou in and serve the dishes and drinks . ” Boss Li waved .
“Yes . ” The waiter nodded and handed the card given by Mr . Wang to Boss Li . “Boss, one of the men with that boy gave this business card to me, saying it was for you . ”
“Don’t just accept anyone’s business card . ” Boss Li exclaimed, but still subconsciously glanced at his business card . First, he was stunned, then suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open and his face shocked . “What about this gentleman? Is he still outside?”
“He has already left . ” The waiter’s reaction to the boss was very strange .
“Go…left? You…you just said that he was with the kid, so he was also driven away by you?” Boss Li’s face quickly sweated and his face held traces of fear on it .
“He followed the boy . ” The waiter realized that something was wrong and his voice became smaller .
“Pop” Boss Li slapped the waiter in the face and shouted, “Are you an idiot and blind? How can you let him leave? You want to kill me?”
The waiter’s face was green and red and he almost couldn’t help shouting at his Boss . Didn’t you tell me to hurry, but he finally swallowed the words back into his stomach .
Boss Li rushed out and wanted to see if he could catch up, but Mr . Wang and Su Jing and others had long gone by car .
“Boss Li, what are you so panicky about?” Zhao Jun wondered .
“Young Master Zhou, you really killed me this time . ” Boss Li cried but he couldn’t blame anyone else . He had invited Mr . Wang several times in the past and when that person finally came to his restaurant he chased him out and the other party did not even demand to meet with him . He settled his account and left a business card, which means that the other party will remember this matter, which means that he caused a big disaster .
“What’s wrong with you?” Zhao Jun is baffled .
“Ah!” Just then, at a window position in the dining room, a girl screamed in a high decibel, followed by many screams . Zhao Jun and Boss Li turned to look .
A large group of mice were rushing into the dining room .
Some of them quickly climbed up to the seat where Su Jing had just been sitting and they crazily rushed towards Zhao Jun .
Looking at this strange and disgusting scene, Zhao Jun and Boss Li were stunned for a second .

Ph. D. In Sorcery
Follow Anastasia, the unlucky physicist turned wizard, as her reality gets turned upside down and she is plunged into a world of gods, magic, swords, and adventure. Short and sweet description, anything more would be a spoiler and I detest those. Now, what you can expect from reading: This is my first time writing, or better said allowing someone else to read that mess so don’t raise your expectations too much. Still, I will try to keep the story flowing, while also devoting as much time as I can to editing. In my opinion, the story is written at a faster pace than normal with time skips here and there. I will do my best to not allow the faster pace to ruin the story by using those time skips to raise the skill of the main character. I am mainly looking for feedback while I test myself in new and unexplored waters. I did put a lot of thought into worldbuilding and the magic system, it is something that has been mulling inside my head for years before I sat down to write anything down. First and foremost I am an engineer and not a writer. I will try to do my utmost to make the world logical and consistent, but sometimes I might not express that in a way that’s clearly understood. I have a rough outline with several possible endings, but the story will change and evolve as I do. But in case I have to stop for whatever reason, the story will get an ending. It will be done even if I have to send coded messages from a bunker. I am a big fan of the Dresden Files so you can be certain that everything mentioned will in most cases be used, with a few red herrings sprinkled in the mix. But that also means I will enjoy putting the main character through the meat grinder while I eat popcorn and laugh from my evil lair. Physics, and to be more precise electromagnetism, quantum field theory, general and special relativity are very interesting topics for me that I research in my spare time. That means that the premise of the story will be using that research to bring logic to magic. Stupid I know, magic is magic, but to me, there is no reason why there shouldn’t be a concrete set of rules there. But it is still magic and that allows me to play with some things that shouldn’t normally be possible. I will focus on evolving the main character and having her react as anyone normal would, from my perspective. There will be scenes of battle, gore, and sexy times, but I will not go into too many details, counting on your imagination to fill the gaps. There will be plenty of combat, even battles ranging from a few dozen, a hundred, and thousands of participants. I could go on but there isn’t much to say that would convince anyone to read, either you thought the title was cool or you liked the poster. Or not, but after several days in photoshop, that’s the best I could do. And the title was originally Sorceress with a Ph.D. The new one makes a little less sense but I like the ring of it more for some reason. I just hope someone enjoys what I write as much as I do. In the end that is the reason, I am doing this, because I enjoy putting my thoughts on paper and seeing the outcome. Credit for the art: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/e0o8nw

8 140What Lies In Between
Earth is on the tail end of its recovery after suffering near-apocalyptic events. Catastrophic storms and sudden, dramatic shifts of the tectonic plates almost destroyed modern society. And to make matters worse, a mysterious disease that would later become known as the Deep Sleep Syndrome swept through the population. Penthus Argyris is one such person affected by this illness. Abandoned by his mother—his last living relative—he wastes away in a hospital ward. It was lonely, but Pent had grown used to it. He no longer dreamed of traveling across the earth to explore the ruins of the fallen nations; the world outside his sterile white cage was all but a distant fantasy. Pent had all but come to terms with his lot in life—that is until his adopted cousin showed up out of the blue with some surprising news… News that would shake the tentative foundation that Humanity had only just managed to piece together.
