Chapter 216: Chapter 216 You’ve Been Expelled

Wong Xingchang and Tong Mao simply couldn’t believe their own eyes.

As members of the Nanjiang Merchant Association, they naturally knew what the Southern Merchant Association Chief Medallion signified.

With this medallion in hand, one held the authority to call upon the multitude of merchants in Nanjiang, and it was a symbol of the Chairman’s identity!

Could it be that this young man before them actually had some sort of relationship with their Association Chairman Gu Tianhao, otherwise how could he possess Gu Tianhao’s Chief Medallion?

The members of the investment group were plunged into shock and confusion, momentarily unsure of what to do.

Yet Chen Xuan remained calm, "To see the medallion is to see the Chairman. Is this rule something you are unaware of, or, are you so arrogant that you do not even regard the Nanjiang Merchant Association Chairman in your eyes anymore?"

The members of the investment group immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Even if they were very wealthy and held high status, they would absolutely not dare to go against the entire Nanjiang Merchant Association; otherwise, they would have no footing in the entire business circle ever again!

"We’ve seen the Chairman!"

The members of the investment group all bowed to Chen Xuan in unison.

This scene left all the surrounding people completely dumbfounded.

It should be noted that each and every person from the investment group was a tycoon in the business world, and now they were all bowing to this young man whose name they did not even know—it was simply too unbelievable!

He Zhengxin was even more shocked beyond belief.

He could never have imagined that Doctor Chen, whom he had looked down upon, could have such tremendous influence!

Even Madam Xu had not expected Chen Xuan to have such a status.

In fact, Madam Xu had brought Chen Xuan to see He Zhengxin today not only to express gratitude but also, she hoped to take this opportunity to have her son support him a little.

But now, it seemed there was simply no need for that at all!

While everyone in the investment group was bowing, there were two exceptions.

It was Wong Xingchang and Tong Mao.

Wong Xingchang harrumphed coldly, "I think all of you must have gone mad, to actually believe he holds the Chief Medallion?"

Tong Mao echoed, "Exactly, you’re not using your brains. Something as important as the Chief Medallion—how could the Chairman possibly entrust such an important item to a nobody!"

"In my opinion, this Chief Medallion must be a fake!"

The people in the investment group looked at each other, doubt also rising in their hearts, feeling that Wong Xingchang and Tong Mao’s words did indeed make some sense.

Tong Mao pointed at Chen Xuan and cursed, "You little bastard, you’ve got some nerve, daring to swindle people with a fake Chief Medallion. I think you’re tired of living!"

Chen Xuan huffed coldly, "Are you so sure that my Chief Medallion is fake? I think you’d better give Gu Tianhao a call to confirm."

Tong Mao’s face changed.

If the other party spoke with such confidence, could it be that the Chief Medallion was indeed real?

Wong Xingchang wore a look of disdain, "Chairman Gu has myriad affairs to attend to every day; it’s not like we can bother him so casually! You obviously know this and are confident that we wouldn’t dare make the call, hence your brazenness, right?"

Tong Mao then had a sudden realization, "Damn, I didn’t expect you to be quite the sly one, young fella. Even I was almost deceived by you."

Chen Xuan didn’t want to waste any more words with these people, "Forget it, since you don’t dare to make the call, then I’ll do it."

With that said, Chen Xuan directly dialed Gu Tianhao’s phone number.

The call was quickly connected.

"Miracle Doctor Chen, is there anything you need from me?"

Gu Tianhao had previously guessed Chen Xuan’s identity, and his tone was extremely respectful this time.

Chen Xuan briefly explained the situation here, and Gu Tianhao immediately grew furious, "What, not only do they betray trust and molest local reception personnel, but they also dare to doubt the authenticity of the Chief Medallion? Miracle Doctor Chen, could you trouble them to take the phone? I want to speak to them personally!"

"Very well!"

Chen Xuan passed the phone over, "Gu Tianhao wants you to take the call."

Wong Xingchang and Tong Mao looked at each other, Wong Xingchang made a gesture with his eyes, signaling Tong Mao to answer.

Tong Mao reluctantly took the cellphone.

"Hello?" Tong Mao tentatively called out.

"I am Gu Tianhao!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Tong Mao was so scared that he almost dropped his phone on the ground.

"Ch... Chief?!" Tong Mao’s voice trembled, as if he had nearly lost his soul.

The people from the investment group beside him, upon hearing this, their faces changed dramatically.

Could it really be the Chief?

This Chief Medallion, it’s actually real!

Gu Tianhao’s voice was deep, "Tell Wong Xingchang, starting from today, you two are expelled from the Nanjiang Merchant Association!"

"What..."

Tong Mao was stunned and took a while to react. "Please, Chief, give us another chance!"

Unfortunately, Gu Tianhao didn’t give him any opportunity to beg for mercy and hung up the phone directly.

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Tong Mao collapsed onto the ground.

Wong Xingchang frowned and asked, "What did the Chief say?"

"The Chief said, the two of us have been... have been expelled from the association..."

"What..."

Wong Xingchang was struck as if by lightning.

They all knew very well what it meant for a Southern Merchant to be expelled from the Nanjiang Merchant Association.

It meant that all the great resources and extensive networks of the Nanjiang Merchant Association would no longer have anything to do with them.

Not just that, but they had offended Gu Tianhao, and from now on, it wouldn’t just be about having no resources or network; it was as simple as that.

They feared that they would be blacklisted by the entire Nanjiang Merchant Association and targeted in all sorts of ways, soon finding no place to stand in the business community!

In an instant, Wong Xingchang’s body completely collapsed. He no longer possessed his previous arrogance, and like Tong Mao, he fell completely into despair.

He Zhengxin and the others were also shocked beyond belief. It turned out that this young man in front of them really had such great power.

Making all the merchants of Nanjiang bow their heads, when had their modest Huai City ever produced such an influential figure!

Chen Xuan looked towards the other members of the investment group, "Now, does anyone still doubt that this Chief Medallion is fake?"

The members of the investment group were so scared they almost wanted to kneel before Chen Xuan.

"We won’t dare again!"

"Please show mercy and let us off this time; we don’t want to be expelled from the association!"

"We shouldn’t have betrayed our trust, let alone speak ill of Huai City!"

"That’s right, we’ll resume our investment in Huai City right now, and we’ll increase it!"

"Yes, yes, yes, increase the investment! We will definitely increase it!"

One by one, the investment group members showed begging expressions, their desire to survive spiking.

On the side, He Zhengxin and the others were overjoyed at this scene.

In order to secure this investment, they had invested tremendous time and effort, and it had all ended in failure.

Yet, they hadn’t expected that now, due to a phone call from this young man, they easily secured the large investment!

They were almost ready to treat Chen Xuan as a hero!

In fact, Chen Xuan wasn’t the slightest bit concerned about the investment matter; the only reason he had stepped in was simply because he couldn’t stand Wong Xingchang and his actions.

Taking the Chief Medallion, Chen Xuan didn’t say another word and turned to leave.

"Doctor Chen, why not stay and finish attending the banquet before going?" He Zhengxin had a smile on his face, trying hard to retain him.

But Chen Xuan just smiled faintly, "Forget it, Director He, you are too busy, I won’t waste your time."

After that, Chen Xuan greeted Madam Xu, who was still in shock, and walked straight out of the venue.

Leaving Director He’s smile to freeze in the air.

One second, you ignore my attempts to converse.

The next, I’ve become someone you can’t afford to reach!
