After a few days, Zhang Jing felt that he had gained a lot.It has to be said that on the road of spiritual practice, a master’s guidance at critical moments can save people from many detours.

Except for Zhang Jing, Zhang Taihe is not so concerned about other disciples. On the one hand, he is currently focusing his main energy on sorting out the world behind the bronze gate and Zi Lv Tian Mansion, and on the other hand In terms of aspects, there are also factors that maintain a certain sense of mystery.

The master and apprentice have discussed the structure and existence of the entire sect and even the mysterious world, and how to make the human world gradually accept the existence of this mysterious side world. They have discussed this many times and are making various preparations for this. .

Of course, An Huiling's purchase of a house next door was an unexpected change, but for Zhang Jing, it didn't bother him that much.After all, although An Huiling comes from a wealthy family, her character does not have the arrogance that Zhang Jing dislikes, and in terms of image, she is even more eye-catching.For this junior sister, Zhang Jing happens to have some free time these days and is willing to give some advice on practice.

According to Zhang Jing's observation, An Huiling is quite talented in practicing Buddhism, especially because of her special experience. Not only was she suffering from a terminal illness, but she also experienced life-and-death difficulties on Sulu Island. , so much so that Zhang Jing admired her persistence and seriousness in practice. After all, even the best talent cannot reach a very high level without perseverance and hard work day after day.

He had high expectations for this junior sister.And as they get along with each other these days, the two people's familiarity has further improved. Even if they don't mention the relationship between teachers at that level, they can be said to be quite good friends.

承和37年西历2016年3月11日11:15千罗东南创研院丙字楼3楼宏图数据科技

Qian Ju, who had just joined the company's data business department, was looking through a pile of newly acquired documents on his newly received laptop.The original expectation of starting work after joining the company and showing off his talents did not happen. After he had just become an intern, after two days of business training, he was handed a bunch of documents and asked to read them as soon as possible. Some of these documents were What he has learned in school, and more, is not the same as what he has learned in school, and requires him to re-understand and become familiar with the content.

However, since the company is currently in a period of expansion, it is not possible to give the interns much time to get familiar with each other. From the third day after joining the company, he began to be recruited...

"Zian, come here." A name flashed on the internal communication software.

"Okay." After seeing this, Qian Ju hurriedly put down the document at hand and walked quickly to a fat man in his 30s with thin hair sitting in several adjacent seats. This was an old man in the department, Zhou Tao. The word Jingshan.

Qian Ju whispered: "Brother Jingshan."

"There is a data sheet here. Please help me with it. I have a lot of things to do here, and the boss is in a hurry. I don't have time to get it done... I will package it and send it to you if you ask for specific requirements." The man took a sip from the tea cup at hand, and sighed. Said unhurriedly.

"Okay, Brother Jingshan, I'll get it right now." Qian Ju hesitated for a moment and then agreed.

"Give it to me before get off work." The man nodded and added.

Returning to his seat, Qian Ju found that another name on the communication software was flashing again, but it was a message from Jiang Ruotong. He quickly opened it again.

"That guy Zhou Jingshan arrested you again?"

"Yes, Brother Jingshan gave me a data form and asked me to help. He said it should be completed before get off work."

"That guy is good at judging things. He left everything to you. What is he going to do on his own?"

"Brother Jingshan said he was busy, and the higher-ups were urging him..."

"Stop talking about it. What is he busy with? Is he busy drinking wolfberry tea?"

"Zian, I told you, read through what you have on hand first, don't be stupid and accept everything from others, he is not your boss, that guy likes to recruit new people..."

Qian Ju touched his head and could only give back a silly smile in the end.

At this moment, Qian Ju suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the office seemed to have changed slightly.This was a very subtle change. Some colleagues who were chatting with each other suddenly stopped talking. Zhou Tao, who was not far away, also silently put down the teacup in his hand. Everyone seemed to be fully immersed in their work. .

Qian Ju subconsciously glanced up and saw that at the other end of the office, department director Wu Zhaoyu, well-dressed and wearing tortoiseshell-rimmed glasses, was holding his hands behind his back, looking around, and slowly walking towards his direction.

Although he had only joined the company not long ago, he still knew the head of the department. He didn't dare to look at him anymore, and kept his head buried in the same attitude of actively working.

In fact, Wu Zhaoyu's eyes did not linger on him at all. He just glanced at him and passed by. After that, he saw him slowly walking towards a seat in front of Qian Ju.

Qian Ju glanced up and saw that the direction Wu Zhaoyu was walking towards seemed to be the direction of Jiang Ruotong's workstation. He was busy sending a message to Jiang Ruotong on the communication software: "Senior sister, Director Wu is heading towards you... …”

Then he saw Jiang Ruotong's "annoyed" expression in return.

Afraid of being seen by his boss, Qian Ju immersed himself in work for a while, then quietly raised his head and glanced in Jiang Ruotong's direction.

Then they saw Wu Zhaoyu standing behind Jiang Ruotong, lowering his body and looking at Jiang Ruotong's computer screen, as if he was talking about something.However, Qian Ju did notice something unusual. First, Wu Zhaoyu's right hand rested on Jiang Ruotong's shoulder seemingly casually, but he never put it down as he spoke.Qian Ju turned around and saw that his right hand seemed to be kneading.

Chapter 400 Workplace X Harassment [-]

Secondly, after he lowered his body, he seemed to be looking at Jiang Ruotong's computer screen. However, the right side of his face and the left side of Jiang Ruotong's face were almost touching, and they were too close.

This seemingly intimate behavior is quite dazzling in terms of the relatively conservative relationship between men and women in Dazhao. In fact, compared to Zhang Jing's previous life, Dazhao in this world has not been affected by the essential impact of Western civilization in terms of etiquette and customs. It also retains quite a few more oriental conservative elements.

At least, in the eyes of many people, the so-called "men and women are not intimate with each other" is still widely recognized.

In the past few days, because of their relationship as senior sisters and brothers, the two of them have been quite close, especially since Qian Ju had just arrived and had not yet had time to register his identity in the campus canteen. He had been eating with Jiang Ruotong these past few days. What is certain is that Jiang Ruotong and Wu Zhaoyu are definitely not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Therefore, Wu Zhaoyu's actions obviously made Jiang Ruotong, the person involved, feel quite uncomfortable. Qian Ju found that Jiang Ruotong was sitting awkwardly, with his body obviously leaning to the right, obviously trying to distance himself from Wu Zhaoyu, but... And because of the superior's face, it was inconvenient to express it clearly.In addition, Jiang Ruotong's face turned red at this time, and even her ears were red. She was obviously extremely embarrassed.

Workplace harassment... Such a word suddenly popped up in Qian Ju's mind. In the past, he had only seen such scenes in the news, but he never thought that it would really appear in front of him just after participating in the internship, and It still happens to people I know well.

Qian Ju looked around, only to find that all the colleagues around him were turning a blind eye and turning a deaf ear. No one seemed to have noticed Wu Zhaoyu's actions. Everyone lowered their heads and were busy with what they were doing, except him. Apart from that, no one even cast their gaze towards it.

Qian Ju looked at Wu Zhaoyu's hand on Jiang Ruotong's shoulder and wanted to say something. He wanted to stand up, but his throat felt a little dry and he couldn't say a word. His legs felt like lead...

At that moment, he thought about how difficult it was to get into a big company, about his ten years of poverty, and about the proud look in his parents' eyes when he was admitted to college...

His heart gradually sank. Qian Ju lowered his head silently and stared at his screen. However, at this time, he couldn't see anything. The numbers and codes on the screen seemed to have become strangers. The characters seemed to be filled with a ball of paste in my mind. It was so chaotic that I couldn't read a word at all.

Somehow, the help that my senior sister has given me these days, her cheerful smile, her pleasant scent of perfume, her daily care and guidance... turned into scenes like mime, flashing back in my mind... …

My fists gradually clenched...

After staring blankly at the screen for a while, Qian Ju raised his head again and saw that Wu Zhaoyu seemed to have said something in Jiang Ruotong's ear, and then he laughed, while Jiang Ruotong looked stiff and lowered his voice. He stared at the screen, not knowing what he was thinking.

While smiling, Wu Zhaoyu adjusted his position, walked behind Jiang Ruotong, and put his hands on both sides of her shoulders in a seemingly affectionate manner...

Seeing this scene, Qian Ju felt like there was a breath in his chest. Somehow, he seemed to be driven by an emotion. He stood up, left his work station, and walked quickly towards Jiang. Ruotong walked over.

Just as Qian Ju stood up and walked towards Jiang Ruotong, there were many vague glances from around him, some with worry, some with disdain, and some with hidden sarcasm...

Quickly coming to Jiang Ruotong's side, facing the director's indifferent gaze, Qian Ju felt that the energy he had just raised was quickly fading away, and he already had some fear in his heart.

But now that the matter has come to this, it is useless to regret, and it is no longer possible to go back, so I bite the bullet and say hello to Wu Zhaoyu first, without looking at his face, and then say to Jiang Ruotong: "Sister Ruotong, you There are some parts of the document that were handed over to me that I don’t quite understand. Could you please give me some advice..."

At this moment, it was naturally inconvenient for Qian Ju to continue calling him "Senior Sister" to avoid making people conjecture, so he changed his name to Sister Ruotong.

Jiang Ruotong turned around and glanced at Qian Ju, who looked a little pale and a little uneasy, with a complex expression, sighed secretly, nodded to him and said: "You go back first, I'll come over and take a look when I'm done. "As he said that, he pursed his lips in a vague way and made a gesture of leaving quickly.

"Wait." Wu Zhaoyu on the side calmly put his hands down from Jiang Ruotong's shoulders, as if nothing had happened. He looked Qian Ju up and down first, and then said slowly: "You He's...the new intern, right? What's his name?"

"Yes, director, my name is Qian Ju." His heart was beating hard, Qian Ju lowered his head and whispered.

"Qianju... a good name... behave yourself." Wu Zhaoyu said with a smile: "Young people, when you first come to the company, you must know the rules. This is not a school... learn more, do more, do less Say, do you understand?"

"Yes, director, I understand." Qian Ju said respectfully.

Wu Zhaoyu turned around noncommittally and walked slowly towards his office. When he passed by Qian Ju, he reached out and patted him gently on the shoulder...

After Wu Zhaoyu left, Qian Ju turned around and returned to his work station. He let out a sigh of relief. For a moment, he felt that his back was covered with sweat, and he actually broke out in a cold sweat.

He looked around, only to find that all the eyes of his colleagues seemed to be avoiding him, and the office area was quiet.

At this time, Jiang Ruotong's name started to pulse again on the computer screen. When he opened it, he saw a "hug" and "thank you" expression from his senior sister.

His mood suddenly relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face subconsciously. Qian Ju casually responded with a "hug" expression.

"Zian, thank you very much just now... But you shouldn't have come here. Now you have offended him terribly." Jiang Ruotong sent a message right after.

"Maybe... it's not that serious, right?" Qian Ju scratched his head. Although he felt uneasy, he still replied.

"That guy is famous for being petty. Some colleagues resigned because they couldn't stand his harassment. No one dared to say anything..." Jiang Ruotong made a disappointed expression at the end of his words. Qian Ju knew that he This senior sister has a strong character. Although she has never mentioned the situation in her hometown in front of her, according to Qian Ju's guess, this senior sister who lives in a shared apartment in the suburbs of Linzhou should not have a well-off family. It is most likely that A young man from a poor family who relies on his own efforts and hopes to gain a foothold in a big city.

4 Workplace X Harassment Completed

After all, these days, Qian Ju has hardly seen his senior sister buying snacks and other shopping outside of lunch.

"If it really doesn't work, I'll go to another company at worst. If I don't stay here, I'll have a place to stay..." Qian Ju replied with a wry smile. After all, the matter has come to this, and it's useless to scare him.

"You are an intern, I'm just worried that he is messing with your internship evaluation." Jiang Ruotong's reply made Qian Ju worried again. Indeed, what makes him different from other colleagues is that he has not graduated yet, so Theoretically, the employer needs to evaluate the graduate internship experience. If the evaluation is not good, it may have some unnecessary impact on his graduation.

However, he soon saw another message from Jiang Ruotong: "Don't worry too much. If something like that really happens, I will go back to school to explain it to you. Several teachers are still here, so I can't help but That’s reasonable…”

Jiang Ruotong's statement made Qian Ju feel quite heart-warming. According to the customs of this world, after a woman is sexually harassed, many people conceal it, especially unmarried women.Because such incidents will damage the woman's "honor", although with the rise of women's rights and other consciousnesses, the slogan of gender equality has also been widely accepted.However, certain concepts that have been held for thousands of years still make many women choose to keep things quiet when faced with such incidents, and do not want to become someone else's conversation piece...

Jiang Ruotong would rather expose his "ugliness" than help Qian Ju clean up his innocence. Such a statement itself is already extremely difficult.

Qian Ju sighed secretly. Until now, he still doesn't know what happened to him, why he suddenly stood up and walked out...

He is not a fool. Even if he has no previous work experience, he still knows that Jiang Ruotong is right. Alas... the current plan is to take it one step at a time.

承和37年西历2016年3月12日10:35塞尔柱帝国高门堡人类联盟总部大厦B872号会议室

Dressed in a crisp official uniform, Pan Weihan, the Zhao Empire's permanent representative to the People's Federation headquarters, slowly walked into the door of the conference room with an entourage.

After entering the door, he calmly glanced at the scene in the conference room. There were six people in the conference room, most of whom were Pan Weihan's old acquaintances. They were Baron Sean Birney, the permanent representative of the United Kingdom of Loon to the People's Federation headquarters. ; Permanent Representative of the Republic of Grande to the Headquarters of the People's Federation, Lord Bonois Antoine; Permanent Representative of the Empire of Holstein to the Headquarters of the People's Federation, Baron Konrad Adenauer.The other three should be their attendants.

(Note: The naming of aristocratic surnames in the West in this world is more complicated, such as "Olas. François Bastian. Sebastiani. de la Porta". Among them, "Se Bastiani" is the surname, and "La Porta" is his birthplace. The naming method "De La Porta" is a reflection of his aristocratic status, that is, someone from such and such a place. .

The remaining part "Olas Francois Bastien" is his name, but part of it may have been inherited from his ancestors.

Here "Aulas" is his name, and "Francois Bastien" may be one or several of his ancestors.According to custom, he can be referred to as "Olas Sebastiani".

Assuming that the ancestor here is his father: "Olas Francois Bastian Sebastiani de la Porta" can be translated as: from the town of La Porta Olas, son of Francois Bastian of the Sebastiani family.

Therefore, in this article, for the convenience of description and for the author to avoid breaking his head thinking about names, all subsequent Western names will be abbreviated. )

The three countries of Rune, Grande and Holstein are vaguely the three most powerful countries in the Western Continent today, and Rune is the leader among them. If the Jokhang Empire in the East does not exist in this world, then there is no doubt that Rune will En will be the most powerful country in the world.

Even now, with Dazhao's huge population base, it can't be said that it can surpass Lu En in terms of comprehensive national strength.

The three countries of Rune, Grande and Holstein have many differences in culture, religion, race, etc. They have been entangled in history and have had many large-scale wars.Therefore, even if they are both countries in the Western Continent, their interests and demands cannot be coordinated in normal times.

However, just last night, representatives of the three countries suddenly sent an invitation to Pan Weihan through abnormal channels, requesting to hold a small-scale closed-door meeting today, and specifically requested that Pan Weihan, the most senior diplomat of the Zhao Empire's delegation to the People's Federation, attend in person.At the same time, they gave a document, which the empire's diplomatic mission paid great attention to, and conducted in-depth communication with the country overnight.

Avoiding possible military or economic alliances among the countries in the Western Continent has always been the core of Jokhang's diplomacy. At the top of the empire, there is also a special title "Western Continent Balance of Power Policy."Therefore, before attending this meeting, Pan Weihan was somewhat vigilant. Any coordinated action by the countries in the Western Continent would be a potential threat to Dazhao.In particular, there is indeed considerable sensitivity to the topics of this meeting.

After entering the conference room, Pan Weihan smiled in line with diplomatic etiquette and shook hands with the representatives of the three countries who also stood up and smiled in the conference room.

After a sterile courtesy conversation, everyone sat down again and the door to the conference room was closed.

"Mr. Pan, we hope this is an open and honest communication." Baron Sean Birney said first.

"of course."

"However, this invitation is a bit urgent, so there are some issues that I haven't fully understood yet." Pan Weihan shrugged, his subtext being that this was not in line with diplomatic practice.

"Please forgive me, we believe that these important events require major powers to coordinate their positions as soon as possible..." Baron Sean Birney is an old gentleman who is unsmiling, and his true thoughts cannot be seen from his face.

Pan Weihan nodded slightly, acquiescing to Baron Sean Birney's words.

"You must have read the previous documents." Sean Bernie asked.

Pan Weihan nodded calmly.

"We have noticed that in some areas of the world, some unusual events have occurred, some of which seem to be beyond the mainstream academic circles' previous understanding of the world." Baron Sean Birney continued: "These events , are highly dangerous, and some even cause considerable casualties.”

Chapter 4 Diplomatic Undercurrent

"Just last week, a supernatural incident in a village in Strasbourg caused the tragedy of more than ten casualties. Due to the sensitivity of the incident, our country implemented news control on the incident." Bonoy .Lord Antoine added from the side.

"That document is information related to certain important events."

"From a humanitarian perspective, I would like to express my sincere condolences for what happened in your country." Pan Weihan bowed his hand to Lord Bonois Antoine with a heavy face.

As the highest-ranking official of the Zhao Empire stationed at the People's Federation Headquarters, Pan Weihan, in addition to his formal diplomat status on the surface, also had another identity, that is, the highest-ranking intelligence officer of the Empire stationed in Gaomen Fort.As a famous spy capital on the earth, Gaomen Castle has always been a key city for intelligence agencies from various countries, and the overt and covert battles under the water have never stopped.

Because of this, Pan Weihan is not completely ignorant of certain events that have occurred in various countries recently. As for that document, he has already known most of the events, and even some of the events were discovered and reported to the country through his channels. .However, he still showed a solemn expression now.

"Thank you." Lord Bonova-Antoine stretched out his hand to press his chest and bowed slightly in response to Pan Weihan's condolences.After that, he glanced at the diplomats of the two countries standing aside and said: "We believe that these abnormal events will have unpredictable impacts and risks on the current countries, people of all countries, and even the entire human civilization. We The extent of this impact and risk is currently being assessed."

Baron Sean Birney observed Pan Weihan's expression from the side, and seeing his calm attitude, he added: "Your Excellency, we would like to know the Zhao Empire's attitude towards these events?"

Pan Weihan silently observed the expressions of several people and weighed it quickly in his mind. With such an eager meeting, it is conceivable that the three countries should already have a certain degree of tacit understanding. However, it is not clear how this tacit understanding was formed...

In addition, it can also be seen that the three countries are indeed feeling pressured by the development of the situation.

"I have already sent the documents back to the country. However, due to time constraints, there is currently no clear order sent back to the country. Therefore, I am sorry that I cannot give you an answer right away." Pan Weihan motioned to the attaché on the side to write down the question: "But , I think our country’s view must be based on the position of a civilized country.”

"Our country believes that for certain events currently occurring in various places, major countries must bear corresponding responsibilities based on their strength and status." Baron Sean Birney said.

Diplomats from other countries did not express any objection to his view.

"The Zhao Empire is an ancient civilization with a long history. From the current archaeological point of view, the beginning of Eastern civilization can be traced back to 2500 years ago..." Baron Konrad Adenauer glanced at Sean Bo. Baron Ni said loudly.

"According to historical records and some archaeological excavation evidence, our civilization can be traced back to the first dynasty 5000 years ago." Pan Weihan corrected, in public, the Zhao Empire has always claimed that its history stretches for 5000 years, and Accordingly, Western historians generally refuse to acknowledge the past 2000 on the grounds that there is no definite evidence.Behind the historical debate, there is actually the shadow of the cultural game between East and West.

Baron Konrad Adenauer did not dwell too much on this issue, but continued: "According to our observations, some recent events may involve certain religions and ancient legends..."

"I believe that it is necessary for countries to carry out closer exchanges in humanities, religion and related fields."

Baron Konrad Adenauer looked at Pan Weihan and saw that he did not make a clear statement, so he continued: "I propose that all countries can establish a four-party coordination mechanism within the framework of the People's Federation. Based on the information currently available to each country, Coordinate and communicate information for such abnormal events."

Pan Weihan thought thoughtfully, and then said: "I am not opposed to this in principle, but I think it is necessary to have a special discussion about the details."
