Chapter 412: Saving People in Progress, This Is Not Your Fault
Chen Qin's look of watching a good show was too realistic, and Jin Li couldn't help but laugh.
She said to Chen Qin, "This is a society ruled by law. I won't go and hire a private investigator to specifically investigate a certain person. The profession of private investigator is against the law; we are good citizens."
The reason Jin Li wanted this list was to know if Qu Wenhui was working in the hotel.
Perhaps the hotel name in her memory was another hotel with the same name.
She didn't look at the shareholders or formal employees listed in the front, but instead looked at the part-time and temporary workers.
The personnel list registered on the internet only contained formal employees.
Chen Qin remembered Jin Li's previous instruction to include part-time and temporary workers as well, so this list was something the security guard had specifically added at the end.
If the security guard tried to shirk, Chen Qin would shout that she was going to call the police.
At the time, the security guard had actually told Chen Qin to call the police if she had the ability, as he felt Chen Qin was making unreasonable trouble.
As a result, when he saw Chen Qin really pick up her phone to dial 110, the security guard panicked, hurriedly snatched her phone to hang up, and honestly wrote out this list.
The scene was so quiet that only the sound of turning pages remained.
Chen Qin and Driver Xiao Cheng looked at each other.
Since Jin Li said she wasn't investigating, why did she still want this list? Could it be to go door-to-door to confront people one by one?
Soon, Jin Li flipped to the last page.
This page was entirely handwritten, and every character was crooked, but recognizing them wasn't a problem.
Right on this page, she saw the three characters "Qu Wenhui."
Jin Li's heart relaxed; it was finally settled.
Qu Wenhui worked in this hotel. As expected, Master wouldn't ask her to save someone for no reason unless the fated person was right beside her.
Today was also the birthday of the Water Official Great Emperor, suitable for dispelling disasters and resolving difficulties. Jin Li felt this matter should be handled sooner rather than later and decided to resolve it today.
She had Chen Qin call the hotel to communicate, requesting to see the cleaner "Qu Wenhui."
Hearing Chen Qin's request, the hotel manager was a bit puzzled and cautiously probed:
"Why does Jin Li suddenly want to see a cleaner? Did the cleaner lose something while performing room service?"
Chen Qin smiled and said, "It's nothing, you don't need to worry. It's not a big deal. Jin Li just wants to understand some things, so she's asking the cleaner some questions. She's not looking for trouble with you."
Chen Qin repeatedly said she just wanted to ask some questions, and the hotel manager volunteered: "If Jin Li wants to know anything, she can ask me. I guarantee I will tell her everything I know!"
Chen Qin restrained her smile and said flatly, "It seems you don't understand human speech. I said I'm looking for this cleaner, not you. Could it be that this cleaner is some big shot that Jin Li can't see?"
Since the hotel manager didn't give her face, Chen Qin wouldn't give him any either.
Call her a bully, or call her someone who got cocky after a little success—it didn't matter.
Jin Li was standing right in front of her watching; she couldn't possibly fail to get this done.
With the hotel being so evasive about Jin Li wanting to see a cleaner, Chen Qin even started to suspect if this cleaner was someone who couldn't be seen, or if there was really something sordid going on.
The manager immediately said, "No, no, I'll call Qu Wenhui over right now!"
While notifying Qu Wenhui to go to the room where Jin Li was staying, the manager pulled up Qu Wenhui's cleaning records for the past few days.
He didn't believe Chen Qin's words. Jin Li's circle had no intersection with cleaners; how could she suddenly want to see one?
It must be that Qu Wenhui lost something of Jin Li's while performing room service, which is why Jin Li was looking for her to inquire!
However, when the manager saw Qu Wenhui's cleaning records, he was dumbfounded again.
Qu Wenhui had been working these past few days, but she hadn't cleaned the floor where Jin Li was staying at all!
The cleaning record signatures corresponding to Jin Li's presidential suite were not Qu Wenhui's.
So, what exactly did Qu Wenhui do wrong?
Thinking of the extreme fans Jin Li had encountered a while ago, the hotel manager felt uneasy and decided to come over in person.
The hotel's efficiency was high.
Qu Wenhui received the notification from her superior while she was cleaning another floor.
Qu Wenhui was stunned at first, the expression on her face suddenly twisting, as if she were in a frenzy of joy from being hit by a prize falling from the sky!
She took a few deep breaths, struggling to suppress the corners of her mouth that were curling upward, and only after several seconds did she say, "But I'm working..."
"Put it down first, I'll find someone else to replace you."
Her superior warned, "Jin Li doesn't know why she's looking for you. You must be cautious in your answers; you need to have a bottom line in your heart about what should and shouldn't be said.
If she asks about your work content, tell the truth. If she asks about the internal situation of the hotel, you can reveal the general situation, but don't reveal specific details.
For example, don't tell her about things like how they always make you work overtime or delay wages, understand?"
Qu Wenhui nodded hurriedly: "Understood!"
Jin Li wanted to see her; she was so happy she was going crazy, just like someone in despair grabbing a ray of redemption. Her light wanted to see her!
She was too happy to refuse; how could she possibly refuse?
If Jin Li wanted to know the internal situation of the hotel, she guaranteed she would say everything.
For example, the gossip she heard from her companions while cleaning: which president was keeping a mistress, which department employee was cheating with a married person, the hotel's unreasonable scheduling, and not paying overtime...
She would tell it all truthfully!
The manager's previous warning?
Heh, she was about to see her light; she wished she could dedicate herself to her. What did the life or death of others have to do with her!
Qu Wenhui felt that to gain the approval of her light, she had to be prepared to follow her.
She had nothing to hide.
Even if Jin Li knew it was her standing outside the door knocking and wanted to call the police to arrest her, she would be willing.
Qu Wenhui was currently in the extreme state of a brainless fan. In this state, even if Jin Li told her to stab someone, she wouldn't hesitate for a second.
"Knock, knock!"
The door was knocked, and Qu Wenhui didn't ring the doorbell.
Chen Qin opened the door, looked Qu Wenhui up and down carefully, and asked, "Are you Qu Wenhui?"
Qu Wenhui nodded, looking at Chen Qin with envy.
Not envying her job, but envying her ability to stay by Jin Li's side often.
"Come with me, Jin Li has some things to ask you."
Chen Qin took her to a room where Jin Li was sitting on a chair with a book on her lap, reading.
Jin Li wanted to talk to Qu Wenhui alone, but Chen Qin and Driver Xiao Cheng both disagreed.
But Jin Li didn't want them to know the content of the conversation, so she simply opened the door and let them sit in the room opposite, where they could watch them from a distance but couldn't hear their conversation.
After doing all this, Jin Li then looked at Qu Wenhui in front of her seriously.
She looked the same as she did in the mirror in her memory, but she was much older than in the mirror, not only thin but also sallow-faced, with some puffiness in her skin.
From the outside, one could tell that Qu Wenhui was not living well.
Qu Wenhui's eyes were numb; she had lost hope in life, her life was a pool of stagnant water, as if she had no interest in anything.
But at this moment, looking at Jin Li, there was a glimmer of light in her eyes.
Jin Li had never believed in any "savior." Rather than relying on others' salvation, it was better to rely on oneself.
But in Qu Wenhui's eyes, she felt that she was the "savior."
"Jin Li, I'm so happy. I'm your fan. I, I, I, I'm so happy to see you!"
Qu Wenhui was so excited she couldn't complete her sentences. She wanted to shake hands with Jin Li, but just as she reached out, she pulled it back, repeatedly wiping it on the sides of her pants, again and again.
Jin Li acted as if she hadn't seen her actions and took the initiative to hold her hand.
"Hello, I'm very happy to see you. Are you my fan?"
Qu Wenhui nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I especially like your works. I really liked the recently concluded 'Assassination.' I really like Li Feifei's personality; her revenge was too decisive!"
Jin Li asked her: "Besides Li Feifei, what else do you like about 'Assassination'?"
Qu Wenhui: "I like everything. It filmed the campus very realistically. Those students and parents were all hateful, and the teachers were also hateful, shielding them!"
Jin Li smiled and said: "I came to find you just to chat with you casually. After hearing your name, I felt I had a connection with you. I really like your name.
Since you like 'Assassination' so much, let's talk about 'Assassination.' Let me tell you, when I filmed this drama, I looked up a lot of psychological materials and many real cases..."
Qu Wenhui listened seriously and didn't express any opinions.
It wasn't until Jin Li mentioned those real cases that Qu Wenhui was touched and took the initiative to ask how those people did it.
Jin Li said: "When everyone encounters problems, they are afraid to speak out, thinking it's shameful and afraid of being looked at with strange eyes.
They are all too young and don't want to grow up accompanied by strange eyes in the future. Even if they know these things are wrong, they still choose to endure."
Every time Jin Li said a sentence, Qu Wenhui nodded, her eyes instantly turning red.
Jin Li changed the subject: "But after these people gradually grow up, face their past experiences, and distinguish right from wrong, they all use legal means to protect themselves.
They start to speak out in various occasions, telling their childhood encounters, encouraging women who encounter problems to stand up bravely. This is not their fault; it is the fault of others. Don't pay for your whole life for the mistakes of others."
Qu Wenhui was stunned for a moment, "Is this true?"
Jin Li affirmed: "It's true. They collected all the evidence, sued people in court, let the law give those people an iron fist, and some even went to jail and were locked in prison."
"Wenhui, reality is not 'Assassination.' We can't use the means shown in 'Assassination' to take revenge.
Because of her misfortune in middle school, Li Feifei spent her whole life taking revenge. Since her parents died, she hasn't lived for herself for a single day.
Although I played Li Feifei, I don't agree with Li Feifei's methods. Ambushing them for revenge is certainly satisfying, but you also lose the happiness you should enjoy.
Please don't carry the mistakes of others on yourself. Victims deserve a better life. Looking forward is never empty talk, but letting go of those dark pasts and moving forward to welcome a beautiful new life."
Jin Li held her hand tightly, thought for a moment, and gave her a hug.
"Don't let those unpleasant pasts bind you. You deserve a better life. In this world, besides love, there is friendship and family affection.
Whenever I want to give up, I think, I even have the courage to give up, so why don't I have the courage to continue?"
Qu Wenhui looked at Jin Li blankly. Under that clear gaze that seemed to see through everything, she felt all her little thoughts had been guessed.
Did Jin Li know something?
How did she know that she had wanted to give up her life several times recently?
She hadn't mentioned her past to her, but these words Jin Li said were clearly guiding her.
Qu Wenhui had actually secretly prepared a knife. After finishing the last month of work, she would take the knife to find her former teacher, and the two of them would end it all.
In her daze, Jin Li suddenly said: "Wenhui, are you interested in my work?"
"Entertainment industry, actor?"
Qu Wenhui shook her head, "No, I can't do it. I don't look good, I can't!"
Jin Li smiled: "Then are you interested in being my assistant? But not now. I will recruit a college student assistant in a few years. You have experience working in a hotel and are careful. I hope to see you when I recruit later."
Qu Wenhui shook her head again: "I, I can't... I can't do it, I can't."
Jin Li: "Being an assistant isn't a job with high technical content. You can even do such detailed work as hotel cleaning, why can't you be an assistant?"
She said deliberately: "That's right, a college student coming to be an assistant is a bit shameful."
Qu Wenhui: "No, no, I didn't mean that. I just, I'm not confident!"
Jin Li looked at Qu Wenhui's eyes, and this thought suddenly arose.
She wouldn't be a savior; only self-rescue could get help.
But since Qu Wenhui admired her so much, she would guide her to continue her studies and continue to move upward.
Recruiting an assistant in a few years was just an excuse. She hoped more that Qu Wenhui could find things she loved in this process.
If she really wanted to be her assistant in a few years, then she would be.
If she competed for it based on ability, then she would be based on ability.
Jin Li patted Wenhui's shoulder: "I'm really looking forward to seeing you again, Wenhui. Life isn't just about love; don't always revolve around those irrelevant people!"
Qu Wenhui nodded heavily.
Her brain was still a bit dizzy at this moment.
Before coming, she had prepared to confess everything and was prepared to be sent to the police station.
But she didn't expect Jin Li to really be guiding her.
Qu Wenhui felt guilty and uneasy, and said in a low voice: "Jin Li, a few days ago I..."
Jin Li: "You're talking about that incident a few days ago? It's okay, this isn't your fault. It's just that some fans were too enthusiastic to see me. I will communicate well with the fans on my blog."
Qu Wenhui: "Don't you feel scared? Don't you feel disgusted?"
Jin Li shook her head: "No, they were too nervous. I'm not scared."
She had the confidence not to be scared.
Under the protection of the gods, she never worried that something would happen to her.
To say something like a salted fish, if something really happened to her, it would be inevitable; no matter how she hid, she couldn't avoid it.
Qu Wenhui looked at Jin Li, unable to imagine that Jin Li was such a kind person. All of this was like a dream.
She cried out: "I, I, I'm sorry, I have AIDS, you shouldn't touch me, and you shouldn't hug me. You should hurry and get a shot, wuwu, I'm sorry..."
Jin Li laughed.
"Even if you have AIDS, normal hugging and holding hands are no problem. Do you want to eat with me tonight? We can taste the hotel's buffet together."
Tears blurred Qu Wenhui's vision. She grabbed Jin Li's sleeve tightly and nodded heavily. ===== CHAPTER 413 =====
