Chapter 393: Another kind of comfort, Tan Zongming's depression
In the car, Andy stared blankly ahead, his thoughts in a mess, his mind full of the future and some unpredictable scenes.
Chen An opened the car door and got in. Seeing Andy's dazed look, Chen An's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a hint of a smile and teasing, "What's wrong? Are you afraid that you will become like this one day, so you are ready to bow to the fear of the unknown?"
"You, how did you know?" Andy's eyes were full of surprise and confusion. She opened her mouth slightly and looked at Chen An.
Seeing Andy's reaction, Chen An knew that his method was right. Although it was a bit far-fetched to say that it was harmless, sharing something could indeed reduce the pain. Since Andy didn't take the initiative, he might as well just point it out himself.
"People are always in awe of the unknown. If this happens to oneself, then it may be fear. Because the future is unclear, this fear will be infinitely magnified until one day, this fear will overwhelm oneself." Chen An's tone was steady and firm.
Andy's face turned pale. She was at a loss when her worries were exposed. She lowered her head slightly, her eyes showing panic and confusion. At the same time, she had a strange feeling that this man knew her so well, as if nothing about her could escape his eyes.
"You're right. Someday in the future, I might become like my brother. We have so many similarities." Andy's voice was a little low, and her eyes were full of worry and helplessness.
"People are actually quite funny sometimes. Many adults feel that life is tiring and want to go back to their childhood. Xiao Ming's condition is actually just that he is mentally immature and doesn't like to interact with strangers. He just has the mentality of a child." Chen An analyzed slowly.
"If one day you really become like your brother, you will just become a child of a few years old. This kind of thing appears in the fantasies of too many people, but unfortunately it cannot be realized."
Andy looked at Chen An's expression and was very surprised. "Are you trying to comfort me?"
"I guess so. I'm worried that I won't get paid." Chen An shrugged with a teasing smile on his face.
"Thank you, Xiao Chen." Andy said solemnly. Her eyes were full of gratitude, and she lowered her head slightly to express her gratitude.
Chen An shook his head and smiled, "The gears of fate have never stopped turning, and they will not stop because of anyone."
"And what you should do now is not to be afraid of the unknown, but to think of ways to deal with it and make more money for your future. Even if problems really arise, you can still live the second half of your life decently." Chen An looked forward, guiding Andy not to get stuck in a dead end.
"Or you can just find someone who can take care of you for the rest of your life, so that you don't have to worry about the future and can work and live a good life. You are very sensitive to numbers and should understand the meaning of probability better than me. Being too pessimistic can only increase the probability, and an optimistic attitude is the best way to reduce the probability."
Andy was very interested in Chen An's proposal, and looked at him with a more curious look, even looking at him carefully. Recalling what he saw last night, his face turned red.
After Chen An finished speaking, there was no response from Andy for a long time. He couldn't help but frown and turned his head. When he met Andy's eyes, he was stunned. This look was so familiar. Isn't this the interested look he would show when he saw a woman he liked?
Chen An frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and poked Andy's forehead, pretending to be angry and asked, "What are you doing? I've been talking for a long time, but my feelings are all wasted, right?"
"No, I listened to you. You are right. I should make more money..." Andy lowered his head, his eyes full of embarrassment and shyness. He did not dare to look directly into Chen An's eyes.
Chen An felt that the atmosphere was somewhat ambiguous, but he knew when to stop, as fantasy was the most deadly poison.
"I just told Dean Yang that she will give us something soon. We will do an appraisal as soon as possible. This will be safer and I will have completed my task."
When Andy heard this, he subconsciously refused, "Ah, that's not necessary. I can basically confirm that Xiao Ming is indeed my brother's."
"No, I like to finish what I start, so this one must be done." Chen An's eyes were full of determination, and his tone was full of unquestionableness.
In fact, Andy felt something was wrong after she finished speaking, but she didn't understand why she subconsciously refused just now. Seeing Chen An's attitude, she could only nod and agree.
In Shanghai, Tan Zongming received a call from Andy and heaved a sigh of relief.
He was really worried because this matter would affect Andy. On the one hand, it was because of their friendship, but also it involved his own interests.
"Andy, it looks like you've recovered. That makes me feel relieved. I've asked Lao Yan to go look for you. Don't worry, there will be results soon." Tan Zongming comforted in a relaxed tone.
But Andy's words made his expression freeze instantly, "Old Tan, I have found my brother."
"You're not going to Daishan alone, are you?" Tan Zongming's eyes were full of surprise and worry, and he frowned slightly.
"No, my friend came here with me." Andy's voice was a little low, but when he said the word "friend", he felt inexplicably comfortable in his heart.
"Friend?" Tan Zongming's voice was full of curiosity and confusion.
Andy explained, "That's the person I asked you to check for me last time."
After hearing this, Tan Zongming's face instantly darkened. According to the time calculation, it was very likely that Andy left him and went directly to find that man.
After so many years of friendship, she didn't come to me first, but instead went to find a neighbor she just met.
This made Tan Zongming feel that God was unfair. Was it just because that guy was more handsome than him?
Suppressing the awkwardness in his heart, Tan Zongming comforted her, "That's good, I feel more at ease knowing that someone is with you..."
"By the way, where did you find your brother and how did you confirm it?"
Andy told her about the meeting, including how Chen An helped her figure out how to find someone, but she didn't mention the fact that Chen An vomited blood.
Tan Zongming's originally unhappy face suddenly turned gloomy. He couldn't help but frown and think about it. Almost subconsciously, he felt that there was something wrong with this matter.
But after thinking about it, I still don’t know where the problem lies.
If Chen An is his enemy, then apart from himself and Andy, only Lao Yan knows that Andy is looking for his brother.
Andy trusted Lao Yan very much, and Andy had just returned to China. Before that, even Lao Yan didn't know the purpose of Andy asking him to find someone, so the possibility of leakage of this matter was almost zero.
Or is he Andy's enemy? But this doesn't make sense, after all, Andy has returned to China, and even if he is an enemy, what is his purpose?
Tan Zongming recalled the information he checked last time. There was no evidence to show what kind of background Chen An had. The only master he had was dead. Combined with the current situation, a most magical and most suitable guess for the current situation flashed through Tan Zongming's mind.
That is, Chen An's master is a very capable person, and those connections were left by his master. As for what he relied on, it was probably his fortune-telling skill.
He couldn't help but feel excited when he thought of this. You know, people who do business are very superstitious about Feng Shui and wealth. What's more, all signs indicate that Chen An should be a capable person.
"Old Tan, why don't you speak?" Andy waited for a long time and asked.
"Nothing. By the way, you called me because there is something you need my help with?" Tan Zongming asked after he came to his senses.
"It's about DNA identification..." Andy's voice was a little low.
"That's no problem. I'll help you contact them later." Tan Zongming asked with concern, "When will you be back?"
"Thank you, Lao Tan, I will go back tomorrow..." Andy said gratefully.
