Journey 1995:Non-Stop

Chapter 231 Be a good person and do things
(Chapter 10 was unsealed earlier, and many people didn't see it.)
In Jinan, it gets light as early as four in the morning in the summer. Yan Hui got up at five-thirty, tidied up, and went out for breakfast at six.

After finishing his meal, Yan Hui rode his beat-up motorcycle and arrived at General Manager Han's office around 6:50. He had brought a large towel with him to wipe the table.

Yan Hui tried to go inside, but was stopped by the security guard at the entrance.

"Who are you looking for?" The security guard had also gotten up early. He looked Yan Hui up and down, making sure he hadn't seen him before.

"I clean Mr. Han's office," Yan Hui explained.

"You look like a janitor?" The security guard stood up and walked up to Yan Hui. "A bunch of people want to see President Han every day, and you're just spouting nonsense."

“If I were making something up, I wouldn’t make up such an excuse. I talked to President Han yesterday, and I’ll be in charge of cleaning his office from now on, so don’t interfere with my work.” Yan Hui waved the towel in his hand.

"Are you kidding me?" The security guard called out to another guard not far away, "Old Sun, look at this kid, he said he was going to clean for President Han, did someone notify you?"

"No, this person is from the South, right? I'm sure I've never seen him before." Old Sun shook his head.

"Look, nobody knows you, you can't get in." The security guard, now confident, looked at Yan Hui again.

"President Han shouldn't be here yet. Have his two assistants, President Jiang and President Lin, arrived? You can ask them." Yan Hui wasn't angry with the security guard.

"Hmm?" The older brother suddenly became serious.

Countless people know General Manager Han, but few can name his two assistants by their surnames. The security guard, being perceptive, tried asking again, "We haven't heard of you. Why don't you call General Manager Jiang or General Manager Lin? I'll let you through immediately if you get a call."

“I don’t care,” Yan Hui shook his head. “If you don’t let me in and things get delayed, that’s your problem. President Han held a big meeting here yesterday, and the meeting room and office are filthy. Starting today, a bunch of bosses will be coming to visit one after another. If the place isn’t clean by 8 a.m., that’s not my responsibility. I’m just a cleaner. Do you really think I have President Jiang’s or President Lin’s phone numbers? I heard from President Jiang yesterday that mentioning his name will let me in.”

The security guard hesitated, "Alright then, you can go in. But..."

"How about this, you stay with me while I clean up, and you watch over me. That should be fine, right?" Yan Hui revealed his purpose.

To be honest, don't underestimate cleaning; it's actually quite troublesome. The most crucial issue is confidentiality.

In Mr. Han's territory, there were bound to be all sorts of documents and materials. Yan Hui didn't want to look at them, but he was also afraid of arousing suspicion. So he proactively hired a security guard to keep an eye on him, so that Mr. Han would feel at ease.

"Alright, Lao Sun, come here!" The security guard agreed to Yan Hui's request.

Watching Yan Hui clean, there shouldn't be any problem.

Without wasting any words, Yan Hui skillfully entered the building and quickly found the meeting room from yesterday.

The meeting room had been cleaned, but in Yan Hui's opinion, it wasn't clean at all.

Yan Hui has always been very serious about his work. When he first arrived in Jianye, he tidied up his cousin's messy room, which had been in disarray for a long time, and his own room has always been very clean.

He checked the time and quickly got to work.

Yan Hui is always quick and efficient at packing. He quickly swept the floor of the conference room and then started arranging the chairs.

After arranging the chairs, he wiped the table, then went to the bathroom to find a mop and began to mop the floor carefully.

President Han's office was locked, so Yan Hui definitely couldn't get in, and he wasn't in a hurry.

Around 7:30, Yan Hui had tidied up the conference room, and President Jiang had already arrived.

Seeing the security guards standing at the conference room door, General Manager Jiang asked with some confusion, "What's going on here?"

"Mr. Jiang, you've arrived!" The security guards were tired from standing. "This man said he's here to clean for Mr. Han." "Hmm?" Mr. Jiang took a few steps forward, saw Yan Hui wiping a chair, and frowned slightly. "How long has he been here?"

"Hello, Mr. Jiang," Yan Hui said before the security guard could speak. "It's been about half an hour. I was worried that it would be inconvenient for me to be here alone, so I asked the security guard to stay with me."

This sentence absolutely cannot be said by the security guard. If the security guard says it, Yan Hui will be in a passive position.

"Oh, okay," Mr. Jiang nodded, glancing around the conference room. "Then come with me to the office."

Then, General Manager Jiang pointed to the security guard: "You come over here too."

General Manager Jiang opened General Manager Han's office and let Yan Hui go in to clean. He glanced at the security guard, implying that the guard should keep an eye on things, and then General Manager Jiang left. He still had to go to the cafeteria for lunch.

General Manager Han's office was about 35 square meters. The desk was quite messy, with a lot of tenders and materials, but Yan Hui only glanced at it before giving up on the desk.

Don't be fooled by the mess; this place is definitely off-limits.

Mr. Han's office was fairly standard, with a full set of desks, chairs, and sofas, as well as a tea set.

Yan Hui spent half an hour cleaning the sofa and tea table until they were spotless and sparkling clean before starting to wipe down the clothes hangers and other areas.

At that moment, President Han arrived.

When President Han saw Yan Hui cleaning, he was somewhat surprised.

This child is a bit...
They actually came?

Without saying a word, President Han turned around and went to the cafeteria to eat, while Yan Hui quickened his pace and cleaned up everything except the main table.

After finishing, President Han still hadn't returned, so Yan Hui headed straight out.

"Huh? You're leaving already?" The security guard was a little surprised. "Wasn't President Han supposed to be back soon?"

"I'm just a cleaner, what am I doing here?" Yan Hui shook his head.

He's actually quite annoying, and he understands that basic truth.

He simply had no choice. Should he let his feelings of "embarrassment" or "worry" sway him when he had the chance to be alive?

Opportunity waits for no one. If he had interrupted even a little later when his brother-in-law was chatting with President Han, his brother-in-law would have taken his leave, and he would have never had the chance.

In short, if an opportunity arises, seize it; if it doesn't work out, bear the consequences yourself.

Now that I'm here, there's no rush. Since President Han isn't talking to me, I absolutely can't be foolish and boast about myself. I should get things done first.

"Brother, will you still be here tomorrow?" Yan Hui asked the security guard when they arrived at the door.

"Huh? This is my shift this morning. I'm on the night shift, from night until 8:30 in the morning," the security guard said.

"Okay, I'll come early tomorrow morning. I was a bit rushed today and almost made the boss miss using the office." Yan Hui then handed over a pack of cigarettes. "Please take good care of him tomorrow."

When offered a cigarette at this moment, the security guard was at a loss for words: "Oh, no problem, no problem."
