Chapter 464 Andy's Background
After they sat down and ordered a few dishes, Lin Hao asked Andy:

"We didn't disturb you and Mr. Wei, did we?"

Andy said frankly: "No, this is actually the first time I met him!"

Wei Wei also said: "Yes, this is the first time Andy and I have met. We only chatted online before!"

Upon hearing this, Fan Shengmei, who had been observing Wei Wei, suddenly widened her eyes and pointed at Wei Wei.

"Andy, could Mr. Wei be the singularity?"

Wei Wei looked at Fan Shengmei in surprise and said, "Yes, I am Singularity. Do you know me?"

Fan Shengmei smiled and nodded, "I saw Sister Andy chatting with you online before, and I found out by accident!"

Fan Shengmei didn't say that Andy learned this from her consultation, but she still understood the proper limits.

"Really? Then it seems that you and Andy are very good friends!" Wei Wei said calmly.

"Sister Fan and I are neighbors, and we do have a good relationship!" Andy said frankly.

At this time, Lin Hao glanced at Wei Wei, the guy who pretended to be poor to test Andy, and then asked:

"By the way, I wonder where Mr. Wei is employed?"

Wei Wei paused while drinking tea, then said as if nothing had happened:
"Do some small business and make a living!"

Fan Shengmei, who was standing by, looked Wei Wei up and down in surprise, then chuckled and said:
"He doesn't look like that. Judging from Mr. Wei's temperament, he looks more like a successful big boss!"

"Haha~!" Wei Wei laughed awkwardly.

With Lin Hao and Fan Shengmei's support, Andy relaxed a lot. Wei Wei was indeed a talkative person, and as they chatted, the food came up soon.

At this time, Qiu Yingying regretted agreeing to stay, because if it was just her and Lin Hao, she would not be able to get a word in at all.

The meal was over quickly. Wei Wei rushed to pay the bill and left first with Andy, while Lin Hao and the other two also prepared to go home.

On the way back, Qiu Yingying pouted and said:
"I wanted to treat you guys to a meal, but Andy's friend paid first!"

Lin Hao smiled and said:

"It's enough as long as the intention is there, don't take it too seriously!"

Qiu Yingying's emotions came and went quickly, and then she said excitedly:

"I never thought that someone like Sister Andy would actually meet her online crush in private!"

"How does the saying go? Everything is possible!" Fan Shengmei said calmly.

Qiu Yingying thought for a moment and said:
"That's right, but I always feel that Mr. Wei and Sister Andy don't match well!"

"How did you figure that out?" Lin Hao said with a smile.

"Sister Andy is so beautiful and heroic, but Mr. Wei looks a bit old-fashioned and not handsome!" Then Qiu Yingying frowned and said:

"I just feel like he's a little weird. Anyway, I just feel like there's something wrong with them walking together!"

For Qiu Yingying, Andy is the most successful woman she has ever met and can be considered her idol.

Fan Shengmei shook her head and said:
"Of course it's weird. The clothes are wrinkled and look like they're from a street stall, but in fact, everything on my body is branded!"

"Ah! A famous brand?" Qiu Yingying asked in disbelief.

Fan Shengmei shook her head and said, "Do you know what he is wearing? The shirt is Prada, the jacket is Gucci, and the shoes are Dunhill..."

Qiu Yingying widened her eyes and said, "Then why did he pretend?"

"Testing, what else could it be!" Lin Hao said: "This Wei Wei should be a businessman, the kind of businessman who is good at calculating!"

"He was wearing designer clothes, but he chose to meet Andy in such an ordinary restaurant for the first time!"

"Also, when we were chatting, he seemed friendly and funny, but in fact, he was very wary. Of course, it could also be because it was the first time we met!"

"After all, it's the first time we meet, and it's impossible to be open-hearted to a stranger!"

Qiu Yingying looked at Lin Hao with admiration and said worshipfully:

"Really? Brother Lin, you are amazing. You can actually see this person's true nature at a glance!"

······
On the other side, Andy said he would send Wei Wei away, but Wei Wei said he came by subway. Before leaving, Wei Wei exchanged phone numbers with Andy.

Watching Wei Wei getting off the overpass to take the subway, he came to the same conclusion as Lin Hao: Wei Wei is a very cautious person, and the key is that he looks average!
Originally, Andy wanted to go home directly, but at this time he suddenly received a call from Tan Zongming, so Andy drove to Tan Zongming's home.

"How is it, did you find it?" Andy asked Tan Zongming as soon as he got out of the car.

Seeing that Andy was a little excited, Tan Zongming pressed his hand and signaled her to calm down.

Tan Zongming said with a complicated look: "Let's go, let's go in and talk!"

Andy walked along the bluestone path to the backyard and saw another middle-aged man sitting next to the floating pool.

Tan Zongming introduced: "This is my old friend Yan Lvming, you can just call him Lao Yan!"

"She has been helping to investigate personally during this period. Things are much more complicated than expected, so let Lao Yan tell you!"

Andy looked at Lao Yan after hearing this, and Lao Yan coughed lightly and said:
"As for your brother's situation, after much trouble, I have investigated..."

Then Lao Yan talked about the information he found, and finally said:
"The couple who adopted your brother sent him back to Daishan before they left. It was said that it was because your brother~ might have a mental illness!"

"Then where is my brother now?" Andy said in a daze. At the same time, because of his emotional excitement, he began to drink water continuously to relieve his tension.

"If your brother's intellectual development is indeed relatively slow, and now that the welfare home has been closed, your brother is most likely still in Daishan!"

"So I plan to go to Daishan again and look for local staff who used to work for the welfare home. But it's going to be very difficult, so you have to be mentally prepared!"

Although Lao Yan's words were very tactful, Andy knew what he meant. Her brother was most likely mentally retarded, and now his whereabouts were unknown and his life or death was unknown.

At this time, Andy was so nervous that he kept drinking water, and it took him a while to calm down.

At this time, Tan Zongming comforted:
"Andy, don't worry too much. Since the person has been sent back to Daishan, let Lao Yan search every family one by one. Don't miss any possibility. As long as the person is still alive, we will find him eventually!" At this time, Andy had an idea. She thought that her brother might be mentally retarded, so Andy said to Lao Yan:

"Old Yan, if my brother really has mental problems, will he be admitted to the local mental hospital?"

So I'd like to trouble you for a favor. Please help me check if there is a man born in 1990 in the local mental hospital!"

"Andy, don't go to extremes!" Tan Zongming shouted sternly.

"Old Tan, we must seek truth from facts. The adopter would not have abandoned my brother for no reason. If he had such symptoms at that time, assuming he is still alive now, according to probability calculations, this is most likely a mental problem, and that person is very likely in a place like this!"

Old Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this. Seeing that the two were still arguing, he immediately advised:
"Don't worry, I'll check again. This is indeed a clue!"

At this time, Andy took another big sip of water, thinking about something, and then suddenly said:

"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Yan. I'll go back first!"

Andy picked up his bag and left Tan Zongming's house. Seeing that Andy was still a little excited, Tan Zongming asked with concern:

"Wait a minute, can you drive now?"

"It's okay, it will be fine in a while!" Andy said as he hurriedly got into the car and drove away.

Tan Zongming sighed as he watched Andy leave, not knowing what he was thinking.

Old Yan, who was standing by, handed over a brown paper envelope and said:

"It contains relevant information about Wei Guoqiang. Also, are you going to continue to keep Miss Andy's background a secret?"

"No, we can't tell her for now!" Tan Zongming shook his head, sat back on the sofa and said:

"I've known her for so many years and I know her personality very well. If I tell her everything at once, she will definitely not be able to handle it. What if..."

Tan Zongming paused for a moment, glanced at the information in his hand, and then continued:
"We will find an opportunity later and slowly reveal it to her bit by bit, so that she can prepare herself mentally and be prepared in advance!"

Old Yan nodded, he knew what Tan Zongming was worried about.

Originally, Tan Zongming was interested in Andy. After all, Andy, a Wall Street elite, was indeed quite powerful. If he married Andy, it would be a choice that maximized benefits for both Tan Zongming's own industry and future descendants. Besides, Tan Zongming himself liked Andy.

But since he found out Andy's background, Tan Zongming hesitated.

As the investigation deepened, it was discovered that Andy's mother and grandmother both suffered from mental illness, and his younger brother also showed symptoms of mental illness, which was obviously hereditary.

Tan Zongming knew that Andy was extremely sensitive and didn't want others to have physical contact with her. Whenever she got nervous, she would drink water continuously to suppress her emotions.

There is no need to conduct a DNA comparison to guess that Andy may have such a genetic risk in his genes.

Tan Zongming was indeed attracted to Andy, but he knew that his wife needed to be versatile and able to thrive in social situations, but Andy could never do that.

What's more, the consequences of marrying Andy, such as facing a mental illness outbreak at any time and offspring inheriting the mental illness gene, so they are destined to be people from two different worlds.

So he restrained his emotions and chose to maintain the relationship between them above friendship but below love.

Including hiding Andy's background, he didn't reveal everything at once, but instead revealed it bit by bit so that she could be mentally prepared.

Moreover, considering Andy's mental state just now, telling her rashly that her father abandoned them because she and her siblings inherited mental illness would probably make things worse.

······
Andy fled back home in a daze, leaning against the wall and thinking about his brother. What would happen if he was alive? What would happen to him if he was unfortunately dead?
The more Andy thought about it, the more scared she became. She kept drinking water to relieve her inner tension and anxiety.

Andy knew she couldn't think about it any further and had to divert her attention. She desperately wanted to find someone to talk to.

She thought of Qidian's dinner together today. The impression Wei Wei left on her today was not very good. She also thought of Lin Hao, whom she had been in contact with during this period. When comparing the two, it was obvious who was better.

Andy recalled what had happened from the time he met Lin Hao to the present, the things that had happened, and the words he had said.

Andy then realized that the more she came into contact with this man, the more charming he became, and the more she wanted to get to know him. The key was that she found that she was not repelled by Lin Hao.

"Maybe it's a good idea to talk to him?" For no reason, Andy wanted to talk to Lin Hao.

Another thing is that she always felt that Tan Zongming did not finish what he said today. Maybe Lin Hao had a way to help her find the whereabouts of her brother!
She was not a shy person. She did what she thought and went straight out of the house, downstairs and knocked on Lin Hao's door.

Hearing the door opening, Lin Hao opened the door and saw Andy, who was in a state of dismay. He was stunned for a moment: "Come in first, what's going on?"

"I need your help with something!"

Lin Hao was not surprised by Andy's visit. After all, without his skills to guide him, Andy would not have suddenly thought of coming to him for no reason.

Lin Hao invited Andy to sit in the living room, and then said:
"Come, sit down and drink some tea, calm down, and talk slowly if you have anything to say!"

Nodding, Andy sat down, picked up the tea that Lin Hao had just poured and took a sip. For the first time, he felt that drinking tea was actually quite good.

"That's right, I've been asking Old Tan for help..."

Andy then told the whole story from beginning to end, then looked at Lin Hao steadily and said:

"So I would like you to help me find out the whereabouts of my brother!"

Looking at the somewhat anxious Andy, Lin Hao put down his teacup and said:
"I do have a suggestion. Tomorrow is Saturday. Since it is basically certain that the person may be in Daishan, why don't you go there in person?"

"Go to Daishan?" Andy said puzzledly: "But~, but we don't know the exact whereabouts of my brother, it's useless for us to go!"

Lin Hao shook his head and said:

"At least it can give you some peace of mind. Look at your anxious state now. Are you sure you can still work well and sleep well tonight?"

Seeing Andy shaking his head, Lin Hao said again:

"Then why not just go for a walk? If there's no news, go take a look at the place where you lived as a child and recall the past. Maybe you can come up with some other clues. Isn't that good?"

Andy thought about it and felt that what Lin Hao said made sense. Instead of being upset and restless here, it would be better to go there and take a look!
"That makes sense!" So Andy said, "Then I'll tell Lao Tan and ask him to ask Lao Yan to lead the way for us!"

Lin Hao shook his head and said:

"No need. Since you think Lao Tan is hiding something from you, why don't you go there in person and verify the results of his investigation with your own eyes!"
