"Well, Sister Andy is right. Plans can't keep up with changes. Let's just let things take their course!"
"Now that we've talked about this, just enjoy your meal. After that, I'll take you to work!"
"Yeah, I'll be right there!"
...........................
The atmosphere between the two of them became more harmonious. After breakfast, they went to work together, chatting and laughing.
On the way, Guan Juer, as usual, kept asking various questions and learning management experience from Andy.
Andy is a decisive person and never drags her feet in doing things. After she dropped Guan Juer off at Huaxin Securities, she called Han Tao before she even arrived at the company.
Without beating around the bush, he directly told her about Guan Juer's visit to him, and then expressed his attitude towards the matter.
After listening to this, Han Tao nodded and said, "I see. If I'm not mistaken, you plan to take Xiao Ming out to play on New Year's Day?"
"That's right. I originally planned to take him to an island for vacation, but now I've changed my mind. I'll just accompany him to play in the Magic City!"
Han Tao understood after hearing this, and thought that Andy was planning to let him go with her, so he said:
"Okay, although Xiao Ming is almost recovered, it's best not to go too far.
One is that he can't get enough rest after flying around, and the other is that the unfamiliar environment makes him feel insecure, so it is better to stay still than to move.
In fact, there are many fun places in Shanghai. We will be back in a day or two. Then we can go out to sea on a yacht and have a good time for two days. "
"That's right. Xiao Ming has finally adapted to the environment of the Magic City. He is not suitable for running around. Then I will take him to Disneyland, Ocean Park and the Zoo for two days. I will arrange other activities when you come back."
Andy nodded. Ever since Wei Guoqiang showed up, he hadn't spent much time with his brother and had been avoiding him intentionally, fearing that it would affect Xiao Ming's recovery.
So she originally planned to take advantage of the fact that things were over and it was the New Year's Day holiday to find a tourist island to visit.
Now listening to what Han Tao said, it does make sense. There is no need to travel too far. I can set aside some time to spend more time with my brother, which will also help him recover.
Seeing that she understood what he meant, Han Tao smiled and said, "That's settled, you guys play for two days first, and when I come back I'll take you around the Magic City.
Xiao Ming is just autistic, so he is sensitive to everything in the outside world. He just can't establish normal interpersonal relationships with others, but he knows who is good to him and who is bad to him.
I have just built up some confidence and have a group of friends who share the same interests. So I will strike while the iron is hot and continue to consolidate this achievement.”
Andy nodded: "I know what you mean. I did ignore this problem a little bit, and I also know what to do."
"Andy, you should also take care to rest and don't put too much pressure on yourself. Don't always doubt yourself just because of Wei Guoqiang's words.
No one knows the exact situation of your grandmother and your mother. After all, one of the two people who knew about it has passed away, and the other person’s words cannot be trusted at all.”
"I understand. I will face these things calmly in the future. After all, I have not shown any signs of going crazy even now. Xiao Ming is not mentally ill. Facts have proved that he is just autistic."
"That's right, you have to believe in yourself. Even if this gene really exists, I believe we can defeat it. Man can conquer nature!"
"Well, thank you Han Tao. I thought I would only have Lao Tan as a friend in this life, but I didn't expect God to let me meet you and the sisters on the 22nd floor. I am grateful for the encounter. I'm hanging up now!"
"Okay, call me if you have anything. Thanks for meeting me. Bye!"
Han Tao sincerely hopes that Andy can face it correctly. Only if his mental quality is strong enough can he avoid great emotional fluctuations due to external stimuli.
What's more, Andy's grandmother and mother's mental illness is not necessarily as serious as Wei Guoqiang said.
Otherwise, how could He Yunli live with his wife for so many years? How could he raise Andy's mother together, but choose to run away when his daughter had a seizure?
Why did Andy's mother fall into the water, or jump into the river? In those days, many people did things against their conscience in order to return to the city, and there are many things that Wei Guoqiang said that are not credible.
Besides, if you have a fever for a month, even if you are not sick, you will develop a disease. Such cases were not uncommon in that era, and it does not mean that you have inherited a mental illness.
Han Tao is more inclined to believe that Wei Guoqiang is just looking for excuses for his actions back then.
Only by exaggerating the madness and danger of Andy's mother's illness can he highlight their helplessness, make the detective feel less guilty, and find a righteous reason for his escape.

Chapter 817 The world is impermanent
In the director's office of Mingtang Law Firm, Han Tao ended the call with Andy, looked at the tall buildings outside the floor-to-ceiling window, turned around and shouted outside.
After a while, Lin Rui walked into the office, opened the document in his hand and handed it over, saying: "Director, this is the work arrangement for this morning, please take a look.
Vice President Lin also called to confirm whether you will attend the meeting this afternoon."
"Reply to Mr. Lin and tell him that I will arrive at Xinghan's conference room on time at 2 pm and ask him to notify the relevant personnel as usual."
Han Tao nodded and took the document. He sat on the sofa and scanned it from top to bottom before continuing to instruct:
"By the way, please inform Mr. Bai in person and change the meeting originally scheduled for 11 o'clock to tomorrow, otherwise it will be too late."
Lin Rui took the information with both hands and nodded, "Okay, Director, I'll make the arrangements. If you have any other instructions, please call me at any time."
"Well, go get busy!"
Han Tao nodded, and after Lin Rui closed the door, he returned to his desk and started working.
At the Xinghan Group head office, after receiving the reply, Vice President Lin Shaotao immediately asked his secretary to notify everyone one by one that Han Tao would preside over the group's second meeting on time in the afternoon.
After receiving the notice, the CEOs of all subsidiaries of Xinghan Group, including Longji, Huihuang Film and Television, Paoze Security, Doudou, and Lutu Coffee, as well as the head of the newly established medical company, all expressed that they would arrive in advance.
Of course, the heads of important departments at Xinghan Group’s headquarters, including the Legal Department, Operations Department, Audit Department, Finance Department, Human Resources Department, Administration Department, and Marketing Department, have all made arrangements in advance so that they can attend on time.
The current Xinghan headquarters is more than twice as strong as it was at the first meeting. All the competent departments of the headquarters have been established and are able to operate perfectly.
In addition to personnel, the company's scale has also expanded a lot. In addition to the main and secondary office buildings, the company purchased a twelve-story office building in the Tenglong business district to establish Xinghan Comprehensive Medical Company.
This was a decision Han Tao made after careful consideration. For this purpose, he also acquired three private hospitals and a biomedical research institute in Shanghai.
This step is bound to happen sooner or later. Xinghan Group has more than a dozen subsidiaries with so many employees in total. If you have a minor illness, you can't always go to other hospitals.
Medical care is a big deal in society now. Several months' salary will be wasted on just one medical treatment. Even a cold will cost hundreds of dollars. Not only do they feel distressed, but Han Tao feels distressed for them as well.
Of course, the hospital still needs to be integrated before it can be put into use, but once the plan was announced, a wave of reputation came along and the cohesion of all employees became stronger.
According to Han Tao's plan, this hospital will also serve as a sanatorium, so dozens of special wards and twelve independent suites will be set up, hidden in the sky garden on the roof.
Many flowers and potted fruit trees have been planted inside, and there are even a few vegetable gardens where people living in the suite can grow some vegetables when they are bored.
Nurses in these special wards and advanced wards can be assigned by the hospital or brought by patients themselves, providing truly considerate service.
In addition to the hospital, Han Tao is also planning to build one or two more staff communities. After all, he owns Longji Real Estate and is a major shareholder of Jingyan Group, so the cost of developing real estate is much lower.
In this way, the company's employees don't have to worry about housing. As long as they work hard and are loyal to the group, they can live in peace for the rest of their lives.
It’s not that Han Tao is so great, but many domestic group companies usually have their own real estate projects, which are mainly to meet the housing needs of employees and enhance the corporate image and reputation.
........................
At the same time, Gu Jia met Mrs. Wang and learned some things, so she hurriedly sent a message to Han Tao.
Han Tao was a little surprised by this information. Recently, Gu Jia had been very busy with the establishment of a new company. Apart from sending Xu Ziyan to school every day, she had focused all her energy on the company and seldom contacted him.
After asking, she found out that this morning, Gu Jia met Mrs. Wang downstairs in Grand Hyatt Mansion, and learned from her about the recent situation of other wives in the wives' circle.
Mrs. Ma, who had previously boasted that her son and daughter were admitted to Oxford, was exposed. Her personality was all fake. Her two children attended an ordinary fake university abroad, similar to the one that Qu Xiaoxiao attended.
Mrs. Liu, who angrily scolded Gu Jia as a nobody at the time, had her husband cheat on her and is currently getting a divorce. She heard that her husband had already transferred his property away a long time ago, so she estimates that the ending will be tragic.
But the worst thing was Mrs. Li who cheated Gu Jia. Because their family's backer collapsed, Mrs. Li's family was in debt and was even put on the integrity blacklist.
In other words, Mrs. Li, who once occupied the C position in the wives' circle and whose handbags cost millions, is no longer the same as before. She is hiding from debts everywhere, dares not show up and has disappeared from the wives' circle.
Mrs. Wang, who had just said this, looked at Gu Jia and teased her, "Gu Jia, everything you said came true in such a short time. Do you think your mouth has been blessed?"
"If I really had this ability, I wouldn't have been cheated so badly during that time. But then again, people should still act in accordance with their conscience. In this day and age, everything is retribution in this life!"
Gu Jia was still very happy in her heart, as this was a way for her to vent her anger.
Mrs. Wang also smiled and changed the subject, "You've been in the spotlight recently. I've heard a lot about the Huadi Group.
By the way, one of my friends runs a tea business, the kind that runs a physical store.
They have hundreds of tea shops across the country, and recently said they want to sell them or find a partner. Are you interested?"
"Okay, Mrs. Wang, thank you for still thinking of me. Please make an appointment when you have time. As long as they are doing business honestly, I will accept them."
"It's settled then. I'll text you when I make an appointment."
"Okay, I have something else to do here, so I'll leave first. See you later!"
After saying that, Gu Jia returned to the car, and while instructing the driver to go to the company, she sent a message to Han Tao, with a hint of sigh in her tone.
It's a pity that things are unpredictable. Fortunately, she had her own help and left the wives' circle in time, otherwise the final result might be even more embarrassing than theirs.
And now she feels that this wives’ circle is poisonous, and even involves some metaphysics, because her experience is a combination of what happened to other people in the wives’ circle.
I also experienced divorce and being cheated. My son Xu Ziyan almost couldn't go to his current school. Fortunately, I was able to withdraw in time. Otherwise, it's hard to say whether the situation would be more serious.
Han Tao smiled slightly after hearing this and said a few words of comfort. In fact, he knew all of this, especially the fact that Mrs. Li's family was in such a miserable state. It was not just because their backers had fallen, but there were also some plans of his own involved.
It is not so easy to cheat your own money. Although the tea factory belongs to the Gu family, all the money is yours, including the initial transfer fee and the subsequent revitalization costs.
Therefore, after this move, Han Tao not only got back his cost from the Li family, but also made a huge profit from their family's stocks and interception.
.....................
Chapter 818 A far-reaching plan
During lunch break, Guan Juer, who had just finished overtime, was just thinking about calling Han Tao and then going out for dinner.
But before I even left the company, I received a call from home. I had no choice but to deal with my mother first.
After the call was connected, before Guan Juer could say anything, a concerned voice came from the other end:
"Guan Guan, I called you six or seven times in the past hour and a half. Why did you just answer the phone?"
Hearing this, Guan Juer pushed up her glasses, looked at the missed call awkwardly, and then responded:
"I was busy today, so I was busy working and didn't have time to look at my phone. What's wrong, mom?"
"Working overtime again? I told you girls, don't work too hard on your career. You worked overtime every day during your internship, and now you're still working overtime after getting a promotion. When will this end?"
Mother Guan felt sorry for her daughter, so she complained a few times excitedly, and then continued with concern:
"Guan Guan, it's already past one o'clock. Have you not eaten yet? Oh, you must be starving, right?"
"Yeah, I'm really hungry. I feel like I can eat a whole cow right now." Guan Juer subconsciously touched her stomach, and it was indeed growling.
"Then hurry up and eat, don't let mom worry. By the way, how is the matter I told you before going? It's been more than a week..."
In addition to her concern, Guan Juer's mother started her routine nagging again, asking about her and Han Tao going back home to celebrate the New Year's Day together.
Guan Juer had already received a positive response from Han Tao and had communicated well with Andy, so she nodded calmly:
"Mom, I've already made an agreement with Brother Han that we will go back together on New Year's Day, don't worry!"
"That's good. I was originally thinking that if he didn't agree, then Mom would ask her friends to introduce you to a few boys during the New Year's Day holiday. Now it seems that's not necessary."
"Mom, why do you say that? Even if Brother Han has something to do and doesn't have time to go back with me this time, you can't arrange a blind date for me.
I have a boyfriend now, so please don’t interfere. I want anyone else except Brother Han!"
Guan Juer was a little anxious. What she was most worried about and what she hated the most was that her mother always arranged various parties and blind dates without her consent.
Although she looks well-behaved, she has firm beliefs and an independent spirit in her heart.
What they least want is to be bound by the life arranged by their parents, and even more unwilling to give up their own pursuits in order to cater to the expectations of others.
Especially with the existence of Han Tao, he is her most perfect partner choice. He is handsome, talented, very good to her, considers her in everything, and never imposes his ideas on her.
"My silly girl, you've already turned your back on me before anything has happened. Don't worry, I don't want to force you to do anything you don't want to do.
But mom has a very big truth that she must tell you. There's nothing wrong with being wholeheartedly devoted to a relationship, but don't be foolish.
Sooner or later you will get married and have children, so we must choose a good man. We can't just keep hitting the wall and not turn back once we find one.
Look, mom, you are living a happy life now because you found a good man like your dad, right?"
Hearing her mother's words, Guan Juer responded helplessly: "Well, I'm happy, especially happy."
Seeing her daughter's answer, Guan's mother nodded in satisfaction and said, "Then what should you do? Should you study hard and be happy in the future?
If so, then listen to your mother, be more careful, and be sensible in everything, okay?"
Guan Juer knew her mother's temper best, so she quickly said, "I know, I will definitely listen to you, don't worry!"
"That's more like it. Mom has made her position clear today. You are in the rising stage of your career now, and I won't rush you to get married, but you must have an explanation.
If you are not comfortable telling me, then when you come back, Mom will tell Xiao Han. It won’t do if it’s unclear.
