Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi, disguised as a Japanese couple, got into the car and sat in the back.
Huo Shaoheng's subordinates drove a normal black BMW 7 Series, and He Zhichu sat in the passenger seat, pretending to be their assistant.
In the car, Gu Nianzhi took out the information she had found and gave a brief introduction to the people in the car.
"… My father's note listed the names of four clinics. They are Batti's Fertility Assistance Center, Labado Project's Parental Treatment Center, Dass Fertility Medical Clinic, and Lajiawan Infertility Treatment Center.
"Last night, I accessed their financial systems and discovered that out of the four clinics, Batti's Fertility Assistance Center is the largest, but the charity funding it receives is average.
"Labado Project's Parental Treatment Center is the second largest and receives more funding than Batti's, but less than the other two.
"Lajiawan Infertility Treatment Center is the smallest and receives the least funding.
"Dass Fertility Medical Clinic ranks third out of the four clinics in terms of size and effectiveness, which is the second last. However, it receives the most donations from the Angels in the World Foundation. Its clinic alone accounts for two-thirds of the foundation's funding.
"That's why we're going to Dass Fertility Medical Clinic today.
"We would like to see how it received the most donations from the foundation with a scale that was neither good nor bad."
Gu Nianzhi sent the information she had found to He Zhichu and Huo Shaoheng's phones. "You can look at it again to see if I missed anything."
Huo Shaoheng didn't even take out his phone. He replied calmly, "I believe you. You don't have to look anymore."
He Zhichu had already taken out his phone, but when he heard Huo Shaoheng's words, he cursed Huo Shaoheng for being despicable. He put his phone back without batting an eyelid. He replied coolly, "I'm not interested in this clinic. I'm just worried about your safety."
He indicated that he wanted to go with them, not to see if there was anything fishy about the clinic, but to ensure Gu Nianzhi's safety.
Gu Nianzhi nodded quickly. "Yes, yes, I know Professor He is doing this for my own good."
He Zhichu turned around and smiled at her. His shimmering almond-shaped eyes sparkled, and he looked very attractive.
Huo Shaoheng pursed his lips and pressed Gu Nianzhi's head against his shoulder. He said dryly, "Go to sleep. You were tired last night. Aren't you sleepy?"
Gu Nianzhi looked at Huo Shaoheng in shock. "I slept last night? How could I … "
"No?" Huo Shaoheng looked at her with a half-smile and leaned over. "… Hmm?"
His last word was deep and magnetic. Gu Nianzhi, who was attracted to his voice, couldn't help blushing. She shifted back and stammered, "… No … Nothing."
Then, he closed his eyes and tried to hide something. "I'm sleepy. I want to sleep for a while."
She wanted to stop Huo Shaoheng from saying those things in front of He Zhichu, but it was exactly what Huo Shaoheng wanted.
He wrapped an arm around Gu Nianzhi's back and pulled her into his arms. He said quietly, "Go to sleep. I'll wake you when it's time."
Gu Nianzhi quickly closed her eyes. Out of sight, out of mind.
He Zhichu's gaze instantly became very sharp. He glared at Huo Shaoheng coldly before turning his head to look ahead. He didn't say anything else.
They didn't speak until they arrived at the parking lot of the Dass Fertility Medical Clinic.
Huo Shaoheng nudged Gu Nianzhi awake. "We're here."
Gu Nianzhi rubbed her eyes and put on her sunglasses. She smiled. "From now on, I'm a mute!"
He Zhichu also put on his sunglasses but didn't get out of the car.
He waved the phone in his hand at Gu Nianzhi. "Your sunglasses have a built-in pinhole camera. I've already connected it to my phone. I'll be able to see everything you guys see. "
Gu Nianzhi pushed the sunglasses up the bridge of her nose and nodded with a smile. She took Huo Shaoheng's arm and walked to the clinic's entrance.
The clinic was a very typical local building. It was square and flat, and liked to use gray marble for the exterior walls. It looked clean and rustic.
It was more upscale than the run-down slums and had a more humanistic feel than the nouveau riche rich area.
There was a green lawn in front of the clinic.
The South Asian early summer sun shone on the grass, and it was full of vitality.
Gu Nianzhi took Huo Shaoheng's arm and maintained a gentle smile as they crossed the lawn. As they walked, she gritted her teeth and whispered to Huo Shaoheng, "… What did you mean by being in the car today?!"
"I meant it literally." Huo Shaoheng still smiled calmly and walked forward with elegant steps. His words were not elegant at all. "Mrs. Huo, you better only have eyes for Mr. Huo. If there's anyone else, Mr. Huo will be very angry. "
"When did I have eyes for anyone else?!" Gu Nianzhi muttered unhappily. "Don't always target Professor He. He's wholeheartedly helping us, but you're still targeting him. Aren't you going to disappoint him? Do you really want to force Professor He to be our enemy? Do you know how powerful he is? "
The smile on Huo Shaoheng's face gradually faded. After a moment of silence, he said, "If he has to be on our side at the cost of you, I'd rather be his enemy."
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
She probably wasn't very satisfied with this answer, but what was with the little joy that rose in her heart?!
She rarely heard traditional romantic words from Huo Shaoheng, but she wanted to hear more from him like today.
Gu Nianzhi pinched Huo Shaoheng's arm and encouraged him. "… What else?"
She looked at him with wide eyes, waiting for him to feed her a mouth full of affection.
Huo Shaoheng didn't need to look to know what Gu Nianzhi's expression was.
He didn't turn around and said calmly, "… Don't push your luck."
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
The two of them joked along the way and finally arrived at the entrance of the Dass Clinic.
They quickly noticed that the patients seemed to be divided into two groups.
One group was Caucasians from Europe and the United States. The men were tall and handsome, and the women were beautiful and enchanting.
The other group looked to be Asian and were probably natives from Japan.
The men and women were all very short and unpresentable.
They looked like God had carelessly molded them out of dough. Their facial features were so flat that they could almost disappear with a swipe of the hand.
These two groups of people made up the majority.
Asian couples like Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi, who were both tall and handsome, were relatively rare.
So as soon as they entered, the eyes of the medical staff in white coats immediately lit up.
They exchanged a knowing look, and a middle-aged Asian woman at the front desk of the clinic took the initiative to walk over and greeted them with a smile. "Hello, how may I be of service?"
She actually spoke Chinese, but it was a bit stiff, so they could tell she wasn't from the Huaxia Empire.
Huo Shaoheng and Gu Nianzhi didn't know if she could tell they were from the Huaxia Empire, but their plan wouldn't change because of a greeting.
Huo Shaoheng made a surprised expression and bowed. He said in Japanese, "Hello, hello." (Translation: Nice to meet you for the first time, please take care of me.)
"Oh? You're not from the Huaxia Empire? "The middle-aged Asian woman was surprised and delighted. Her attitude toward them became even more friendly.
She bowed deeply to them and blurted out in pure Japanese: "Welcome, please come in, please come in."
