Chapter 79: Matter Settled
Ignoring her, Wang Yan said to Yang Yuanzhang on the side: "Dean, let's find a quiet place, and you can tell us the details of this child's situation."
Yang Yuanzhang sighed and said: "Follow me."
Wang Yan supported Andy, who couldn't stop crying, and followed Yang Yuanzhang half-hugging her.
Bringing the two to her office, Yang Yuanzhang looked at Andy, who was lying on Wang Yan's shoulder and crying silently, and poured two glasses of water and placed them in front of them.
"Hey, this child, at that time..." Yang Yuanzhang sighed and began to tell the story of Andy's brother in detail.
Accompanied by Yang Yuanzhang's narrative, Andy imagined her brother's experiences over the years and was heartbroken. When she heard the dean's last sentence, "By the way, this child is particularly sensitive to numbers, and can recite pi particularly long...",
Andy was struck by lightning, and the scene of her taking her brother to recite pi emerged in her mind, and she couldn't help but cry out, lying in Wang Yan's arms and constantly muttering: "It's him."
"Looking at her current state, let's go first. Let's come over tomorrow to get a detailed file and do a follow-up investigation. After that, take a sample for DNA testing, do you think that's okay, Dean?"
"No problem, then let's do it tomorrow. Do you have a place to stay? How about I arrange a room for you to make do for the night?"
Looking at Andy, who was crying with her head buried, Wang Yan nodded and said: "Okay, then I'll trouble the dean. It's really embarrassing to trouble you for so long late at night."
Yang Yuanzhang waved her hand and didn't say anything. She took the two to an empty room with two beds, turned out two quilts, found some toiletries, said hello, and left. She thought the two were together and didn't think much about it. And Andy didn't say anything; she just kept crying, how could she have the heart to think about so much.
Andy cried enough, lay on the bed blankly looking at the ceiling, and didn't say a word.
Wang Yan lay on the other side, thought for a while, and said: "Andy, tell me about your childhood?"
Andy turned her head to look. The hazy moonlight shone through the window onto Wang Yan, making her feel exceptionally at ease. After a long silence, Andy said tremblingly: "I had already been in the welfare home with my brother when I remembered things. At that time..."
Wang Yan listened quietly. For a long time, Andy's chattering voice grew weaker until there was no sound. Turning his head to look, Andy, who was exhausted, fell asleep at some point...
The next day, the powerful biological clock made Wang Yan open his eyes on time. Looking at Andy, who was sleeping soundly on the side, Wang Yan didn't disturb her, got up lightly, went out, and started practicing boxing slowly in the courtyard. He didn't bring a change of clothes, and it would be inconvenient to be covered in sweat, so just loosening his muscles and bones would do.
The elderly who got up early looked at this strange young man practicing quite well, and gathered in twos and threes to watch the fun.
When Wang Yan finished his boxing, he happened to see Andy yawning, standing at the door, staring at Wang Yan, who had turned his head back. There was gratitude, tenderness, fear, and hesitation in her eyes...
Wang Yan stepped forward and said: "Let's go, wash up, and go eat breakfast."
In the cafeteria, Yang Yuanzhang handed a small sealed bag and a file bag to Wang Yan: "This is Xiao Ming's information, and his hair."
"Okay, thank you Dean, no matter if it works or not..."
Sitting on the side and watching the silly figure eating big mouthfuls of food in the distance, Andy said decisively: "It won't not work, he is my brother."
Wang Yan said: "Yang Yuanzhang, is there anything you need in the nursing home? Some daily necessities, or basic infrastructure? Just say it, we will try our best to help. On one hand, to thank you for your help, and on the other hand, to contribute to this cause and add a brick."
Yang Yuanzhang said politely: "Let's handle the matter first, and you can also set your mind at ease. We can talk about these things later." She could see that the two were not short of money, but it was obviously not a good time.
"Then that's fine, we'll talk about it later. I'll go check it out. Can you control yourself? You know his situation, don't disturb him."
Andy nodded and said: "Thank you."
Wang Yan didn't talk nonsense and said: "That's it for now. You should call Tan Zongming, we might have to stay for two days before going back."
After eating breakfast in big mouthfuls, he left Andy to interact with her brother at the nursing home, and Wang Yan drove off to investigate the ins and outs of the matter, and by the way, do a DNA test. It was much easier to find the process with the answer, and Wang Yan handled it very smoothly, without much effort, and connected it with what Old Yan said.
After Wang Yan left, Andy called Tan Zongming: "Hello, Old Tan. I want to ask for two days off."
Tan Zongming, who was in the villa, stood up and walked to the window to look at the scenery: "What's wrong? Is your body uncomfortable?" He knew Andy quite well, a complete workaholic, and didn't understand what had happened to Andy.
"I... I might have found my brother."
Tan Zongming frowned: "What happened?" They were still saying there was no news yesterday, and they found it today?
Andy told Tan Zongming everything from returning home yesterday to today.
After listening, Tan Zongming was silent for a long time: "I see, Andy. Who is this Wang Yan you mentioned?"
"He lives upstairs from me. After I moved to Joyful Song, we have been together." Thinking that maybe it was to comfort herself, Andy continued: "Hmm... he is a very good friend."
"Friend?"
"Friend!"
"Alright, that's it. It's okay for you to rest for a while. You've been exhausted recently. Handle your affairs there first." Tan Zongming smiled: "I'll let Old Yan go help you, he has a wide range of connections."
"Good, then I'll trouble Old Yan to make a trip, thank you Old Tan. That's it, bye."
"Bye."
Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window tomorrow, Tan Zongming thought for a while, took out his phone, and called Old Yan: "Hello, Old Yan, Andy has a discovery, go help her. Also, pay more attention to Andy's situation, try not to let her discover the clues and know the truth."
"Good. That's it."
Immediately after, Tan Zongming called his secretary: "Help me check a person named Wang Yan, he lives on the 23rd floor of Building 19, Joyful Song, as soon as possible."
Putting down the phone, Tan Zongming put his hands in his pockets and looked at the scenery outside, speechless for a long time...
Andy patiently accompanied her brother to play games, draw, and talk, but when she heard him recite pi, Andy inevitably lost control. However, thinking of Wang Yan's instructions, she barely held it back. During this period, Qu Xiaoxiao called her, saying she wanted to go out and enjoy herself with her. Andy hung up the phone as politely as possible, not wanting to talk to her much.
Qu Xiaoxiao on the other end of the phone heard Andy's impatience. After hanging up, she started to study whether Andy had any opinions about her... After thinking for a while, she had no clue and didn't study much, because GI had already given a reply and would come over to negotiate with them next week, and she still had a lot of preparations to do.
In the afternoon, Old Yan rode his motorcycle to the nursing home. After observing Andy's state, he didn't say much. After asking Andy for Wang Yan's contact information, he met Wang Yan at the hospital.
"Just call me Old Yan, how is it?"
Shaking hands with Old Yan, Wang Yan handed the test results to him: "Correct."
Picking up the test results and looking at them: "The cause and effect are all clear?" Seeing Wang Yan nod, Old Yan continued: "Your actions are very fast, it seems I'm redundant."
"Old Yan, you are too modest. Without you narrowing the scope, how could it be found out so quickly?" Wang Yan said indifferently: "Just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse."
"There is one thing I want to tell you." Seeing Wang Yan nod, Old Yan pondered for a moment and told Wang Yan about the situation of Andy's possible mental problems. As for her father's matter, Old Yan didn't talk too much: "The situation is roughly like this. Old Tan doesn't want Andy to be affected. So I think you should take Andy away as soon as possible. This is also Old Tan's meaning. For Andy's sake, it's better not to let her have too much contact with people from the original welfare home, so as not to let her discover the clues."
Regarding Old Yan's words, Wang Yan nodded and didn't speak.
"Okay, that's it. Since it's all clear, I don't need to be here, so I'll go back to Shanghai first. Tell Andy, I won't go over."
Watching Old Yan ride his beloved black big motorcycle away, Wang Yan also drove back to the nursing home.
Andy, who was sitting in the courtyard hugging her arms and enjoying the starry sky, saw Wang Yan's car drive in and hurriedly got up to greet him.
Looking nervously at Wang Yan walking to her, Andy asked tremblingly: "Is... is there a result?" Seeing Wang Yan nod, Andy asked repeatedly: "Is... is it?"
She had thought about it countless times during the day. Although she firmly believed that it was her brother, everything had a ten thousandth chance, and no one could say for sure. She also thought about what she should do if it was her biological brother, and she had spent the whole day in fear.
"Yes."
Seeing Wang Yan nod, Andy let out a long breath. Between great joy and great sorrow, her body went limp and she was about to fall.
Quick-eyed, Wang Yan took two quick steps, picked up Andy to avoid her falling, and carried her back to the room where the two lived yesterday.
Carried by Wang Yan, Andy didn't have the heart to think about useless things; her mind was full of her brother being found.
Putting Andy on the bed, Wang Yan told her about what happened after Old Yan investigated it, and said: "The matter is like this, calm down yourself." After saying that, Wang Yan went out to find a place in the courtyard to sit down and took out his phone to start replying to messages. He had been busy all day and had piled up a lot again.
Andy, who was lying quietly on the bed looking at the ceiling, thought about her brother's matter. The excitement was just for a while, and she had long since calmed down. After all, she had been building her psychological construction for a whole day, so she was prepared.
She was thinking about how to arrange her brother, and thinking about how to take care of him by her side in the future. Thinking about her brother's illness, whether it was congenital or acquired, and if it was hereditary, would it affect her? If it was acquired, could it recover? Thinking about Wang Yan's help, thinking about his decisiveness, thinking about the unspeakable feeling in her heart, thinking about whether it was liking? Was it love? Thinking about what Wang Yan thought of her? If the two hit it off, was there a possibility of being together? If they were together, then was her brother's illness hereditary? Would it affect her? How to arrange her brother...
Thinking about these things back and forth, Andy found that this was a dead loop, and thinking so much was useless.
Looking at Andy, who was sitting beside her, Wang Yan replied to a message, looked up, and asked: "Thought it through?"
Andy shook her head and didn't speak.
Wang Yan asked: "How do you plan to arrange your brother?"
"I want to take him away and take care of him by my side."
"To be honest, I don't suggest you do this." Seeing Andy's puzzled expression, Wang Yan continued: "Your work is very busy, you don't have time to take care of him. Whether he can adapt is also a problem. Besides, he lives very well here. The dean and other elderly people love him very much and take care of him. Before you came, he had lived like this for many years. His feelings for the people here are much more than for you. Why do you think following you is a good choice?"
Thinking about it, Wang Yan continued: "As for his illness, I suggest going to the hospital for a check-up to see what caused it, so you can be prepared. These two points are what trouble you, what do you think?"
After pondering for a moment, Andy said: "Let me think about it again, tomorrow."
"Of course, go back, it's cold outside."
The next day, still in the big cafeteria, Andy was still looking at the silly figure eating, and said to Wang Yan, who was sitting opposite: "You're right, he will be better here." After a pause, hesitating for a long time, Andy continued: "I want to take him back to Shanghai today to check, see his illness..."
Wiping the corners of his mouth, Wang Yan said: "Okay, I'll go contact Yang Yuanzhang in a bit and let her accompany you for a trip."
Except for Andy, who was lost, trance-like, worried, and afraid after seeing the results, the overall process was quite smooth. Yang Yuanzhang had taken care of Andy's brother for many years, knew his temper well, controlled him very well, and was very cooperative. Andy used Tan Zongming's connections to make an appointment with authoritative doctors in both mental and psychological aspects in Shanghai, and did a comprehensive test, which was the root of Andy's emotions.
When Andy called Tan Zongming, Tan Zongming specially asked her to hand the phone to Wang Yan. Tan Zongming was quite horizontal and quite strong. He said this: "It seems you didn't pay attention to my warning." After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Andy also wanted to take her brother to Joyful Song to see, but unfortunately, it didn't happen. Her brother was tired of tossing all day and was clamoring to go back to the nursing home. Even Yang Yuanzhang couldn't handle it; he just wanted to go back.
When they returned to the nursing home again, it was already past eight o'clock on Monday evening. Andy's brother had tossed all day and had long since fallen asleep. Wang Yan carried him to the bed, Andy covered him with a quilt, and then stared at him fixedly from the side...
Wang Yan, who had gone back to lie on the bed to rest, was replying to messages from Guan Ju'er and Qiu Yingying. It was very strange not to see Andy in the morning, so he cared about whether there was any problem, and of course, he couldn't suppress his gossiping heart.
Seeing Andy come in, Wang Yan comforted: "Actually, you don't have to have such great pressure. The doctor also said, keep a good mood, don't be stimulated, and move your brain more when you have nothing to do, there won't be too much problem."
Lying on the bed, Andy sighed: "I know, I know everything, but I can't help but think about it." Speaking of this, Andy turned to look at Wang Yan and said: "Wang Yan, I'm really scared, scared that one day I will be like that. If that really happens, I dare not imagine how I and Xiao Ming will do."
"Maybe you need to do other things and invest in them, such as your work, to distract your attention. After a period of time, you will adapt." Wang Yan didn't say anything else. He had been chattering all the way, and he had said everything that should be said. The rest was just for her to think about it.
Andy thought about it and said: "Maybe you're right, I really should go back. There are a lot of things on Old Tan's side, and I have to be worthy of the salary he pays. I'll spend some time with my brother tomorrow morning, and we'll go back in the afternoon."
The two chatted for a while, and Andy fell asleep at some point, even snoring. She was too tired these two days, and her mind was too messy, and the blow to her was too big...
Joyful Song, 2202.
After ten o'clock, Qiu Yingying dragged her exhausted body back to her little nest.
What she saw when she opened the door was Guan Ju'er and Fan Shengmei looking at her together. Qiu Yingying, who was a bit unnatural, turned around to close the door and put the key on the small cabinet on the side: "What are you doing looking at me like this?"
"Back so late again?" Guan Ju'er on the side said: "Except for yesterday when you rested for most of the day, you have been working overtime until so late for five consecutive days. Yingying, you have lost weight in these few days, if it really doesn't work, relax and rest, Brother Wang said it's all up to you."
Fan Shengmei took over: "Yes, Little Earthworm, you seem to have become a different person, I almost don't dare to recognize you."
She laughed embarrassedly: "It's not as exaggerated as you say, Brother Wang's original words were 'I gave the opportunity, whether you can grasp it depends on you'." Qiu Yingying learned the demeanor and tone of Wang Yan at that time and laughed: "Didn't I tell you, I'm the only intern in the whole company, and the others have at least three years of work experience. Brother Wang takes such good care of me, of course I have to work harder. Besides, what I learn is my own, I'm still far behind."
"Forget it, you're determined." Fan Shengmei waved her hand listlessly, and then turned to look gossipy, leaning forward: "Hey, Little Earthworm, let me ask you, did Wang Yan go to the company today?"
Hearing this, Guan Ju'er also hurriedly leaned forward.
Qiu Yingying was asked without a head or tail, and said blankly: "No? Brother Wang is very busy, I sent a message to ask him today, saying he went on a business trip. What's wrong?"
Guan Ju'er said: "We saw Brother Wang and Sister Andy running in the morning, and when we went to work, Sister Andy didn't call me. I sent a message to Sister Andy, she didn't reply, and Brother Wang's answer was the same."
"So, we suspect..." Fan Shengmei whetted Qiu Yingying's appetite, but didn't see Qiu Yingying jumping up to ask for the truth as before, just looking at her curiously, and couldn't help but feel bored: "Forget it, I'll tell you, we suspect they went out together, so..." As she spoke, Fan Shengmei gave a look that you understand.
"Really?" Qiu Yingying asked, and then talked to herself: "But it would be quite good if they were really together, hmm, quite a match."
Looking at the two who were looking at her incredibly, Qiu Yingying hurriedly said: "Alright, alright, I won't talk to you two, I'm exhausted, I have to wash up and sleep." After saying that, Qiu Yingying hurriedly flashed back to her room.
The two at the table looked at each other and shook their heads without speaking. This girl was probably possessed, stupid from working, and hopeless.
It wasn't that Qiu Yingying had changed her nature, it was really that she had no heart to study those things. She was like a beast all day long, and she didn't have any leisure time at all, so where did she have the energy? Now she was just working, working, working all day, full of documents, various colleagues' teachings, and precautions, etc...
The next day, Andy accompanied her brother to draw for a whole morning, because Wang Yan fooled him into drawing a picture for Andy on the side. Andy was both complaining and happy, and the feeling was very complicated.
Wang Yan talked to Yang Yuanzhang about what was missing, and he helped fill it. In fact, for so many years, no matter in which world, whether it was buying amulets, paying protection fees, or some of his own ideas, he had always been doing these things and had never stopped. The real world is fine, he is doing quite well just taking care of himself for now.
Of course, helping this Daishan Nursing Home was entirely because of Andy, but if there was no Andy, he would also fund other welfare institutions, which didn't matter, and he could sell a favor by the way, why not do it.
At six o'clock, the two finally returned to Shanghai. On the way, Andy kept looking at the painting, laughing from time to time. Wang Yan knew that painting; it was Andy, her brother, and Wang Yan playing with mud under the blue sky and white clouds.
This child is still good, listening to advice. It wasn't that Wang Yan fooled people with low intelligence, mainly because the breath on Wang Yan's body could indeed make Andy's brother feel at ease, and it was normal to have some good feelings.
Finding a place to eat casually, the two returned to Joyful Song and went back to their homes.
Andy, who returned home, washed up, mainly because she hadn't changed clothes or taken a bath in the past two days.
After taking a comfortable bath, Andy wiped her body and hair, picked up her phone, and called Tan Zongming: "Hello, Old Tan, I've handled it, I'll go to work tomorrow."
"Are you okay? If not, rest for a while."
"It's okay."
"Then see you tomorrow."
"Good, bye."
Hanging up the phone, Andy poured a glass of wine, drank alone, thinking about what happened in the past few days, her expression was painful for a while, tangled for a while, and sweet for a while, and she didn't know what she was thinking...
At this time, a new message notification on her phone, Andy took a look, it was Bao Yifan.
Old Wei had been sending two messages to test her every day for the past two days, but Andy had no heart to pay attention to him, so she replied "busy, don't disturb," and kept disturbing for several days without any movement, and he was anxious. He wanted to call directly to ask what was going on countless times, but thinking of the unpleasantness during the meal, he didn't dare to disturb rashly, so as not to make the already bad impression worse.
After thinking about it, Andy replied.
Wei Wei on the other side saw Andy reply to the message, "sat up," and hurriedly replied to the message with painstaking efforts, and under his guidance, made another appointment.
Wang Yan returned home and tidied up, drank tea, read books, and wrote calligraphy, which was his daily routine.
The next day, life returned to normal, Wang Yan got up for his morning exercise.
He met Andy, who was in good spirits, and Guan Ju'er, who was sleepy, in the elevator.
"Brother Wang, morning, long time no see?"
Nodding to Andy, Wang Yan said: "It's only been a few days, and it's a long time?"
"Hmm... I always feel like a long time has passed."
"Illusion, it must be because you didn't wake up in the morning. Have you stayed up late these two days? The dark circles are much thicker."
Guan Ju'er was stunned: "Really?" She turned to Andy on the side: "Sister Andy, look, is it? I haven't looked in the mirror when I got up in the morning." Although she didn't care too much about those things now, she was a girl, how could she not want to be beautiful.
Andy smiled: "He's lying to you, don't listen to him, there's a little bit. But seriously, Xiao Guan, you really need to pay attention to rest."
"Sister Andy, why are you talking about me?" Guan Ju'er looked at Andy's face carefully: "You should pay attention too, your complexion is much worse than before, is it because you've been too busy on business trips recently?"
Andy didn't care and shook her head: "Indeed. Let's go, we're here."
When eating breakfast, Guan Ju'er felt that the atmosphere was very strange, and always felt that they were hiding something from her. She couldn't help but look at this one and that one, but she wasn't a talkative person after all, and didn't say anything in the end. It was just that she kept thinking in her heart: "It wouldn't really be what Sister Fan said, right? Are they together?"
How could this little thought be hidden from Wang Yan's eyes? He didn't care, easily guiding the atmosphere of the three people eating, and the morning passed like this.
When it was time for work, Wang Yan called Qiu Yingying downstairs to go to the company together.
Qiu Yingying was quite happy to see Wang Yan: "Brother Wang, did you go out with Sister Andy?"
Wang Yan looked at the road and said: "Why do you ask?"
Qiu Yingying sold Guan Ju'er and Fan Shengmei without hesitation, told the story of that night, and then talked to herself: "Actually, it would be quite good if you and Andy were really together, hmm, quite a match."
Looking at the two who were looking at her incredibly, Qiu Yingying hurriedly said: "Alright, alright, I won't talk to you two, I'm exhausted, I have to wash up and sleep." After saying that, Qiu Yingying hurriedly flashed back to her room.
The two at the table looked at each other and shook their heads without speaking. This girl was probably possessed, stupid from working, and hopeless.
It wasn't that Qiu Yingying had changed her nature, it was really that she had no heart to study those things. She was like a beast all day long, and she didn't have any leisure time at all, so where did she have the energy? Now she was just working, working, working all day, full of documents, various colleagues' teachings, and precautions, etc...
The next day, Andy accompanied her brother to draw for a whole morning, because Wang Yan fooled him into drawing a picture for Andy on the side. Andy was both complaining and happy, and the feeling was very complicated.

"Are you okay? If not, rest for a while."
"It's okay."
"Then see you tomorrow."
"Good, bye."
Hanging up the phone, Andy poured a glass of wine, drank alone, thinking about what happened in the past few days, her expression was painful for a while, tangled for a while, and sweet for a while, and she didn't know what she was thinking...
This was just Andy being okay for now, and Wang Yan still had the patience to talk to her. If it were later, forget it; it would be good if he didn't torment her.
Qu Xiaoxiao had nothing to say, just like that.
Fan Shengmei, well, let's not talk about her flirting and double standards, it's meaningless.
Wang Yan felt that Fan Shengmei was quite twisted. Her attitude toward her family was inconsistent with her own personality and style. Judging from the show, normally Fan Shengmei shouldn't have had a good time at home since she was a child, not to mention being tortured, but her childhood probably wasn't very happy. And growing up in such a family environment, normally, she shouldn't have had high expectations for her family.
Wang Yan instinctively grabbed the incoming fist, kicked out with his leg to trip him, and simultaneously turned his body to fling him away with the momentum. Tan Zongming was thrown directly into the office, rolling twice before coming to a stop.
If it were Wang Yan, he would definitely sever ties with his family. Once his goal was achieved and he had money, it would be fine to return home in glory and throw some money to repay the upbringing. As for the so-called secular eyes and the views of others, when he went back to throw money later, it would definitely be praised, and he wouldn't hear a single bad word. Of course, there was a high probability that he wouldn't succeed, which was another matter, but it was much better than being dragged down and sucked dry like this, with a butt full of messy things.
Like Wang Manni back then, both of these women wanted to rely on their own beauty to climb up. They both thought that lying down was better and easier. But they never thought about relying on themselves, nor did they mention improving their abilities to make progress.
