Chapter 273: Chapter 273: Where Do You Get The Face?

All those present immediately perked up, many looking around to see what the big boss of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals looked like.

Jiang Ning stood behind Sir Feng, a picture of respect; upon hearing Lu Jinyuan’s words, she couldn’t help feeling nervous and quickly reached up to straighten her hair.

"I don’t know what this boss looks like, but I spent two hours on my makeup today. I have to get his attention!"

The members of the Chen family also straightened their postures, with Chen Deshou gripping his walking stick and saying, "I don’t know if the boss of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals is easy to talk to, but logically speaking, in Pingyun County, only our Chen family has the capability to take on this project. Hopefully, the boss won’t cause any trouble."

Chen Junhao laughed and said, "Grandpa, don’t worry. As long as the boss of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals isn’t a fool, he will definitely want to cooperate with our Chen family."

Zhao Chunlan excitedly laughed beside them, "Once this cooperation is finalized, our Chen family will make a fortune. I’ll finally get to experience what it’s like to be wealthy."

Sun Yuze, standing next to Chen Fan, also showed a face full of curiosity and muttered, "I’ve heard the boss of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals is very young, about our age. I want to see if he has three heads and six arms or three eyes to be so capable."

Chen Fan laughed and said, "He’s not as exaggerated as you say. He looks quite ordinary, just like you."

Sun Yuze, puzzled, turned to ask, "How do you know?"

Chen Fan replied with a teasing smile, then patted Sun Yuze on the shoulder and turned to walk toward the podium.

Sun Yuze immediately widened his eyes and quickly asked, "Chen Fan, what are you doing?"

Chen Fan smiled, "I’m going up to give a speech!"

Then everyone’s gaze focused on him.

Members of the Chen family watched Chen Fan walking toward the podium with surprise on their faces.

"What is Chen Fan doing going up to the podium? He’s not going up there to make trouble, is he?" murmured Zhao Chunlan.

Both Chen Deshou and Chen Junhao’s expressions froze, a bad premonition rising in their hearts.

Jiang Ning’s eyes widened, thinking to herself, has Chen Fan lost his mind? To stop me from being favored by the boss of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, is he actually willing to go up to the podium and make a scene?

She became anxious, immediately wanting to step forward and stop this reckless young man.

But before she could act, Sir Feng walked up with a face full of respect and called out, "Mr. Chen."

Jiang Ning slightly halted, sensing something was amiss.

Then Lu Jinyuan spoke up, "Ladies and gentlemen, this is the boss of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, Mr. Chen Fan!"

Jiang Ning froze.

The members of the Chen family were stupefied.

Sun Yuze was dumbstruck.

A group of reporters frantically snapped photos.

Inside Mingyue Villa, Wang Suyun watched the news unfolding on TV, and when she saw Chen Fan walking onto the stage and being introduced by Lu Jinyuan, she immediately covered her mouth, tears filling her eyes.

"Fan... is the boss of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals!"

Chen Fan approached the podium and surveyed the room, a faint smile appearing at the corners of his mouth after seeing everyone’s reactions.

Then he began his speech, which was more a formality.

"Chen Fan... Chen Fan is the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, that’s impossible, that’s impossible!" Chen Deshou’s face was wrought with disbelief, his voice quavering.

Chen Junhao’s eyes were fixed on Chen Fan, his cheeks puffed out as he clenched his teeth, "What virtues or abilities does he have to become the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, why him! It’s not fair!"

Zhao Chunlan said in a daze, "Chen Fan is the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, yet we drove him out of the Chen family, aren’t we cutting off our own chance to fortune by our own hands?"

Jiang Ning felt her mind go blank, murmuring to herself, "Chen Fan is the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals, everything he said was true, everything he said was true..."

After finishing his speech, Chen Fan said indifferently, "Ladies and gentlemen, you can now proceed to the hotel lobby for the reception. I’ve arranged for some food and drinks to welcome everyone. In a little while, I will be announcing some matters about subsidiary cooperation at the reception."

With that, Chen Fan walked into the hotel with Lu Jinyuan and Sir Feng.

Seeing this, the crowd immediately followed.

Many who recognized Chen Deshou came over with a smile to make conversation.

"Elder Master Chen, this Chen Fan must be a junior from your Chen family, isn’t he? Your Chen family is truly formidable to have bred a True Dragon. From now on, your Chen family might even stand on equal footing with Sir Feng."

"Indeed, your Chen family really struck gold. To think that you have such a significant boss among you, Elder Master Chen must be over the moon with joy."

...

The members of the Chen Family found these words quite embarrassing; they had no face to tell others that Chen Fan had actually been ousted from the Chen family.

Zhao Chunlan looked at Chen Deshou with a crestfallen face and asked, "Elder Master, should we still go in?"

Chen Deshou narrowed his eyes, his hands gripping the cane tightly, and after taking a deep breath, he said, "Go in, why not? Chen Fan is a member of the Chen family, my grandson. Isn’t he opening a subsidiary here in Pingyun County to support our Chen family? By all accounts, he ought to hand over this project to our Chen family!"

Chen Junhao echoed, "Exactly! No matter what his status is, he will always be the junior of our grandfather, and that relationship can’t be erased. If he doesn’t give this project to us, he should be prepared to face others questioning his backbone!"

The members of the Chen Family marched into the hotel lobby with an aggressive air.

Chen Fan was talking to a host of people seeking cooperation.

"Chen Fan!" Chen Junhao called out.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

As soon as people saw the Chen family members arriving, they hurriedly made way.

Chen Deshou approached Chen Fan; he had thought about humbling himself and saying some nice words to mend their relationship, but now with so many eyes on him, he somewhat struggled to swallow his pride.

"Chen Fan, your becoming the owner of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals truly pleases me, and I am very satisfied with your achievements. Why don’t you let the Chen family handle this new subsidiary project?" Chen Deshou began with the air of an elder.

Chen Junhao pressed aggressively, "You must give this project to the Chen family. As a part of the Chen family, it’s also your contribution to the clan!"

The surrounding crowd showed expressions of envy.

"As the saying goes, when one man gains nirvana, his pets rise to heaven. This time, the Chen family has made it big. The project of Qingfan Pharmaceuticals’ subsidiary is surely in the bag for the Chen family."

"Yeah, I think we shouldn’t waste our efforts. No matter what, we can’t stand against the Chen family."

...

But then Chen Fan scoffed, his tone icy, "Give the project to the Chen family? Where do you get the gall to say such a thing?"

The crowd was immediately stunned, entirely unexpected of Chen Fan’s attitude towards the Chen family.
