Chapter 429: Backdoors work abroad too
Chapter 429: Backdoors work abroad too
Having this idea, Huang Xiaochuan immediately prepared to put it into practice. This matter could not be delayed. If Yu Xiang did not get pregnant sooner or later, her two mothers would find out that she could not get pregnant.
However, the best HTG Fertility Center in the United States requires an appointment; you can't go whenever you want.
After thinking for a long time, Huang Xiaochuan called Zhang Yun and asked her to come to Shanghai soon.
Huang Xiaochuan wanted Zhang Yun to help him contact HTG Fertility Center, since Zhang Yun had extensive connections in the United States and could sometimes pull strings abroad, even if the methods were different, the principle remained the same.
Upon receiving Huang Xiaochuan's call, Zhang Yun immediately arranged for her secretary to charter a private jet to fly directly to Shanghai. Huang Xiaochuan was startled when he received her call; how could this woman have arrived so quickly? Originally, Huang Xiaochuan thought it would take at least three or four days! He didn't expect that the person he called yesterday would arrive today!
After finding out which hotel Zhang Yun was staying at, Huang Xiaochuan didn't ask her to come to the school to find him. Instead, he went to the hotel to find her himself. With her current entourage, she might even alarm the principal if she came to the school. It was better to avoid trouble. Besides, they were discussing some rather private matters. He decided to go find her instead.
When they arrived at the hotel, even though Huang Xiaochuan had been mentally prepared, he was still taken aback by Zhang Yun's grand entrance.
Huang Xiaochuan usually only takes three or four people with him when he goes out. Apart from a driver who always follows him, the others follow at a distance. But Zhang Yun brought a full twenty or thirty people with her. In addition to the female bodyguards, she brought a whole bunch of secretaries, assistants, makeup artists, butlers, and servants. She even booked an entire floor of the hotel. The bodyguards were responsible for guarding the elevators and emergency evacuation routes, and no one was allowed to approach without permission.
Huang Xiaochuan was led by Zhang Yun's assistant to the reception room in her luxury suite. The assistant apologized to Huang Xiaochuan, saying, "Mr. Huang, I'm sorry, Catherine is changing her clothes. Please wait a moment."
Huang Xiaochuan stopped his assistant, who was about to leave: "Wait a minute, why is she changing clothes? Did someone get her clothes dirty?"
The assistant smiled at Huang Xiaochuan: "Catherine is changing into her guest clothes."
Huang Xiaochuan was stunned. Could things really be that particular? Changing clothes to receive guests? I've never seen anything like it before.
He suddenly remembered something and asked, "So, do we need to change into different clothes for meals too?"
The assistant replied with an air of self-righteousness, "Yes, you're absolutely right!"
Huang Xiaochuan wanted to curse, but he swallowed the last word.
He waved his hand irritably: "Alright, go about your business, and make me a cup of tea!"
"Okay, would you like black tea, green tea, or Pu-erh tea? We have black tea, green tea, Pu-erh tea, including 20-year-old ripe Pu-erh and raw Pu-erh. Which one would you like?"
Huang Xiaochuan was stunned again. This woman was living too extravagantly! Even if he was a tea connoisseur, he wouldn't carry so many different kinds of tea with him when he went out!
"Fine, I'm not drinking anymore!" Huang Xiaochuan angrily dismissed Zhang Yun's assistant.
A moment later, a completely transformed Zhang Yun appeared before Huang Xiaochuan.
Huang Xiaochuan looked at her with displeasure.
"What's going on? Why are you looking so long? Who offended you this time?"
Huang Xiaochuan couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Seriously, isn't this a bit too much of a show for you? The cost of this trip is enough to feed twenty ordinary families for ten years!"
Urgent! Major plot twist! Watch now!
"Why don't you just say that I earn more in a day than twenty ordinary families could earn in ten years? Besides, I'm spending my own money, it's none of anyone else's business, is it?"
Huang Xiaochuan was momentarily speechless with anger, and he couldn't say anything more. The two were just business partners, and besides, Zhang Yun hadn't spent any of the company's money, so it was none of his business to criticize her behavior. Moreover, he had something he needed her help with.
"Fine, I shouldn't have said anything, okay?"
Seeing Huang Xiaochuan take the initiative to back down, Zhang Yun chuckled, then asked, "Why did you call me all this way here?"
"Have your men leave; I have something to tell you."
Zhang Yun glanced at Huang Xiaochuan, then waved her hand, dismissing everyone.
"Now it's just the two of us, so just say what you want to say!"
Huang Xiaochuan didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.
"A relative of mine wants to go to the United States for IVF. She did some research and found that the best hospital for IVF is HTG Fertility Center in the United States. However, this medical center requires advance appointments, and their waiting list is already three years in advance. My relative can't wait that long. I thought you have a lot of connections in the United States, so I wanted to ask you to help me see if there is any way to skip the line and get treatment earlier."
The astute Zhang Yun immediately realized that Huang Xiaochuan's so-called relative might be himself, but adhering to the principle of not revealing what she saw, Zhang Yun kept her guess to herself.

"Is your relative wealthy?"
Huang Xiaochuan touched his nose: "It should be alright, right?"
"If you have money, it's simple. Just donate ten or twenty million US dollars to this medical center, and forget about skipping the line. Once the money is in your account, they'll arrange for your relative to be admitted to the hospital."
Upon hearing that donations could arrange treatment, Huang Xiaochuan felt reassured, as money was the last thing he needed.
"Money shouldn't be a problem, but could you help me find out how to donate it?"
Upon hearing Huang Xiaochuan's words, Zhang Yun was certain. What relative? It was this guy himself. Who else in the country could donate so much money without batting an eye? Who else could it be but him? Moreover, she had never heard of him having a relative who was just as wealthy as him.
"Okay, this is easy. I'll contact them for you when I get back, and I'll let you know as soon as I have any news."
"You must not tell anyone about this. Keep it a secret, understand?" Huang Xiaochuan solemnly warned Zhang Yun.
Zhang Yun scoffed, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old? What's there to talk about? Don't worry, I'm not a blabbermouth!"
Huang Xiaochuan was relieved and stood up.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you. Now that I've finished talking, I'll be going. Oh, and I have a lot of classes lately, so I won't see you off."
Zhang Yun looked furious: "Haven't I ever seen someone ask for a favor like this? I came all this way just as you summoned me, and you won't even treat me to a meal?"
Huang Xiaochuan thought about it and agreed. It was indeed a bit unreasonable not to treat people who had come all this way to help without even offering them a meal.
"Okay, what do you want to eat?"
"It's local Shanghai cuisine! You definitely know which restaurant serves authentic local Shanghai food."
"No problem, local Shanghai cuisine, right? I actually have a great place to recommend."
Huang Xiaochuan planned to take Zhang Yun to the restaurant owned by his brother-in-law, Tang Jianhua. The decor might not suit Ms. Catherine's taste, but the food was indeed quite authentic. Huang Xiaochuan often invited friends and colleagues there for small gatherings.
Furthermore, guests should follow the host's lead and eat whatever the host offers!
