In the eyes of immortals, this world built by mortals as insignificant as ants is developing at a terrifying speed. Their civilization and technology are step by step making them the true masters of this world, from the microscopic world invisible to the naked eye to the macroscopic world composed of the sun, moon, and stars.

They have created manned spaceships that can take people away from Earth. They have built terrifying nuclear weapons that can instantly destroy a city or even the planet. They can perform surgery on the human brain... Yet all of this is dismissed by immortals, just as we dismiss the busy scurrying of ants.

Emily Clark accidentally ended up in this world. After integrating into it, he suddenly realized that this mundane world he once looked down upon actually harbors much wisdom and achievements that immortals cannot comprehend. This discovery sometimes makes Emily Clark feel that falling into the mortal world is not necessarily a bad thing. On the contrary, not only has he rediscovered the joys of being human, but it is also very likely that he will achieve even greater success on the path of cultivation by leveraging the civilization of this world.

Emily Clark first posted a roommate wanted ad on the nineteenth floor. Of course, unlike David Sullivan, who was driven by lust to find a pretty girl to live with, for Emily Clark, having a girl under the same roof would bring a lot of inconvenience, so he specifically noted the gender—male.

After posting the ad, Emily Clark started browsing the Provincial Science and Technology Network. The research institute had paid the information office of the provincial science and technology department, so the institute’s network could be used to search for scientific and technological information.

Ever since coming to this world, Emily Clark had become obsessed with its scientific and technological civilization.

After eight o’clock, colleagues began to arrive for work one after another, but Emily Clark was still sitting in front of the computer, surfing the web.

Usually, people would make tea, read the newspaper, and chat, and wouldn’t officially start working until between eight-thirty and nine. Emily Clark had gotten used to this lifestyle.

At eight-thirty, Emily Clark logged off right on time as usual and began his work for the day.

Emily Clark’s department was called the Chemistry Lab, a laboratory certified by the national metrology authority. Normally, besides completing a few state-assigned tasks and research projects, the Chemistry Lab mainly conducted chemical testing and agricultural environmental assessments for external clients. The department’s revenue mainly came from taking on outside assignments, and the bonuses for Emily Clark and his colleagues depended on this.

Overall, whether it was the current Emily Clark or the previous one, he rather enjoyed working in the lab. The only thing that dissatisfied Emily Clark was that, due to his education and lack of connections, he was still a contract worker and hadn’t secured a permanent position.

Emily Clark was quite capable at his job. In just one year, he had published a paper in "Physical and Chemical Testing." In most people’s eyes, he was a diligent, eager-to-learn, and reliable young man. Based on his current performance, if he pulled some strings, his permanent position might be up for discussion by the end of the year.

However, the previous Emily Clark had a scholar’s pride, and the current Emily Clark had an added touch of immortal arrogance. He was unwilling to pull strings or even flatter the leaders. So, despite his abilities, the institute’s leadership consistently ignored him, never asking about him, let alone bringing up the issue of a permanent position.

The morning passed quickly amidst the busy work with bottles and jars.

At noon, as Emily Clark was immersed in the technological civilization of this world, his phone rang.

“Is this Mr. Emily Clark?” A clear and pleasant female voice came from the other end, making it easy to imagine that the caller was a pure and charming young woman.

Emily Clark was slightly taken aback and asked, “Yes, who is this?”

“My name is Yvonne Foster. I heard you’re looking for a roommate, right?” The woman, who introduced herself as Yvonne Foster, realized she had dialed the right number and introduced herself.

Only then did Emily Clark suddenly realize what was going on, but he clearly remembered that he had specified the requirement for a male roommate.

“Sorry, I require the roommate to be male.” Emily Clark refused decisively.

The girl on the other end was clearly not expecting Emily Clark to refuse. She was momentarily stunned, then immediately, as if injected with a stimulant, quickly retorted, “Don’t you want to live with someone of the opposite sex?”

“No, I don’t!” Emily Clark replied bluntly.

“But I’m a very beautiful girl!” The girl’s voice on the other end was very alluring, just like those voices on certain phone hotlines.

“That’s your business. I’m hanging up!” Emily Clark hung up without any courtesy.

“Oh yeah! Finally found a roommate!” As Emily Clark hung up, at the nurse’s station in the inpatient department of Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital, a nurse with a pure and delicate face, big eyes, long and curled eyelashes, and stylish short hair like a boy, jumped up happily.

She was the one who had called—Yvonne Foster!

After work in the afternoon, Emily Clark strolled home as usual. Then he leisurely climbed up to the seventh floor, only to be stunned at the stairway.

At his door, a woman was leaning against the wall.

This woman was dressed casually, youthful and stylish, tall and sexy, with an extra-large suitcase by her side.
