Chapter 725 Not Selling
"CEO Su, are you selling or not?"
Yang Tiansheng habitually touched the jade thumb ring, his expression confident. He was certain that Su Yunxi, cornered, would sell her shares.
However, Chen Xuan suddenly smiled, "Mr. Yang, the Su family hasn't breached the contract, so why should they pay compensation?"
Yang Tiansheng glanced at Chen Xuan and sneered, "You live-in son-in-law is truly a kept man, talking nonsense without even understanding the situation."
The other two CEOs couldn't help but laugh. One of them chuckled, "Then let me teach you properly. Listen carefully. We all placed large orders for new drugs from the Su family. But the Su family's new drugs are under investigation, making them unsellable and unproducible. According to the contract, the Su family owes us a large sum of compensation. Do you understand, you idiot?"
Chen Xuan chuckled, then his gaze sharpened. He said coldly, "I think you're the idiot. Who said the Su family's new drugs cannot be produced? Who said they cannot be sold?"
"You dare to call me an idiot? You're asking for a beating!" The CEO was furious, his face flushed.
Su Yunxi, however, suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked, "Chen Xuan, do you mean the Su family's new drugs can be sold now?"
"Precisely!" Chen Xuan nodded calmly.
Su Yunxi showed a hint of disbelief. She hadn't received any news of this.
Yang Tiansheng sneered, "Stop spewing nonsense here. If the Su family's new drugs could be sold, I would have been the first to know. No one has called me, which proves they are indeed unsellable."
"That's because you are ignorant. You will receive the news soon." Chen Xuan said nonchalantly.
Yang Tiansheng hesitated slightly. The three exchanged glances and shook their heads in unison. Turning back to Su Yunxi, they said, "Miss Su, your Su family is a prominent clan, yet you've found such a useless live-in son-in-law. Your Su family is finished!"
They all believed Chen Xuan was talking nonsense.
Just then, a ringtone suddenly sounded.
"Whose phone is that?" Yang Tiansheng frowned. He detested people answering their phones during a discussion.
"My phone!" Chen Xuan pulled out his phone from his pocket. It was Old Zhang calling. He answered and received good news: "Chen Xuan, the matter is settled. Su's Pharmaceutical's new drugs can be produced again, and several other medications have also received approval!"
It turned out Old Zhang knew Chen Xuan was anxious and had personally made several calls to expedite the process.
"Thank you, Old Zhang." Chen Xuan expressed his gratitude and hung up.
"How rude," Yang Tiansheng pouted.
Before he could finish speaking, another ringtone sounded.
"Whose phone? Why are they so rude?" Yang Tiansheng said angrily.
Su Yunxi sarcastically remarked, "Mr. Yang, it seems to be your phone."
Yang Tiansheng instinctively reached for his pocket, his face instantly turning red with embarrassment. Damn, it was indeed his phone. He had just accused someone of lacking manners by having their phone on, only to find his own phone ringing. He had slapped himself in the face, and very quickly at that.
Chen Xuan couldn't resist teasing, "Mr. Yang is truly a person of high caliber. I admire you greatly; you are truly a role model for us all."
Yang Tiansheng took out his phone, wishing he could kill the caller. If not for the untimely call, he wouldn't have been so humiliated. Just as he was about to reject the call, he saw the caller ID, and his pupils contracted. He immediately answered, and in the next moment, his expression changed drastically: "What? The Su family's new drugs have all been approved and can be launched for sale?"
"Alright, alright, I understand." After hanging up, Yang Tiansheng's face was so dark it looked like it could drip water.
"Mr. Yang, what's going on? Did the Su family's new drugs get approved?" The other two CEOs, having overheard Yang Tiansheng's conversation, rushed over to confirm the situation.
"That's right!" Yang Tiansheng found it hard to believe, but he nodded. Wasn't the Medical Association's Qin Weizhong supposed to be targeting the Su family? What exactly was going on?
"No way?" The other CEOs wailed.
Immediately after, their phones also rang, one after another. Soon, their people also confirmed that the Su family's new drugs could indeed continue production. Ironically, Su Yunxi was the last person among everyone present to receive the news that the Su family's new drugs could continue production! This was undoubtedly fantastic news for the Su family at present. This single piece of news was enough to pull the Su family back from the brink and snatch victory from the jaws of defeat!
At this moment, Yang Tiansheng and the others looked at Su Yunxi and Chen Xuan with extreme embarrassment. They had been so confident, so sure that the Su family would beg them to buy their shares, but they never expected this turn of events. Looking at Chen Xuan, he was already lounging on the sofa with his legs crossed, looking incredibly smug. Yang Tiansheng and the others grew even more displeased.
Su Yunxi smiled radiantly and said, "Mr. Yang, it seems our Su family hasn't breached the contract. And I suppose I don't need to sell my shares anymore, right?" Now that the Su family's new drugs could be produced, it was akin to having a money-printing machine. Su Yunxi wouldn't sell for twenty billion, let alone fifty.
Yang Tiansheng said awkwardly, "It seems you don't need to sell them..."
"Mr. Yang, we still haven't discussed the allocation of your new drugs and the contract for the next quarter. Would you like to discuss it now, or should we wait?" Su Yunxi blinked her beautiful eyes, appearing quite the seasoned negotiator. The shares were not for sale, and now it was their turn to seek out the Su family!
"Now, now!" Yang Tiansheng said eagerly. The Su family's new drugs were very popular in the market, and they couldn't afford to miss out on such a lucrative opportunity.
"I think we should wait a little longer," Chen Xuan suddenly interjected.
"Miss Su..." Yang Tiansheng looked at Su Yunxi with a crestfallen expression. "CEO Su, we are practically old acquaintances. Give us some face and let's discuss it soon." He was genuinely worried that the Su family might not allocate the new drugs to them, and if they didn't, he would be crushed by his competitors.
Su Yunxi replied, "I'll listen to my fiancé."
Yang Tiansheng and the others almost burst into tears! However, to secure the contract quickly, the three of them turned to Chen Xuan, showering him with pleasantries and solicitous inquiries. They never imagined that one day they would be begging Chen Xuan for favors. Su Yunxi watched from the side, unable to contain her laughter. Although the three of them had ulterior motives, Chen Xuan hadn't been too harsh, understanding that business was like warfare. Facing their pleas, Chen Xuan simply stated that the current contract discussion could wait, politely showing them the door.
"We won't discuss the contract, but we can sit down for a cup of tea, haha," Su Yunxi said with a smile.
Yang Tiansheng and the others sat on the sofa, feeling as uncomfortable as if they were sitting on thorns. Since the contract wouldn't be discussed, they left dejectedly.
Upon leaving the Su family villa, Yang Tiansheng and the others gritted their teeth in anger.
"They got incredibly lucky. Even Qin Weizhong is under investigation..." Yang Tiansheng made several phone calls and finally understood the situation, gnashing his teeth. Qin Weizhong was the president of the Medical Association, and the fact that he was suddenly under investigation was truly baffling.
"Mr. Yang, we have other matters to attend to, so we'll take our leave!" The other two CEOs said to Qin Weizhong before quickly turning to depart.
