Sergio turned to Bardolph and sneered, "I don't care about what happens after the exhibition."

"What I care about now is that I don't like this guy who has suddenly joined us. I think that someone like him joining our investigation team will taint our reputation. I propose to expel this guy from the team." The other members standing behind him immediately agreed.

"I support Sergio!"

"He's only here because of his connections. Why should we tolerate him?"

"This is unfair, and I won't stand for it!"

Bardolph frowned as he spoke, "Sergio, don't go overboard. Fade's participation was personally recommended by Master Choi. It was approved by the leaders. You can't just expel him like this."

Sergio snorted. "I respect Master Choi a lot. However, this does not mean that the people whom he recommended are all good."

"What's more, as one of the leaders of the team, Master Choi must obey the rules. I'm afraid that

his behavior will disappoint everyone."

"Sergio, are you questioning Master Choi's decisions?" Bardolph's tone grew serious.

Sergio replied blandly, "Bardolph, don't accuse me blindly. I'm just being professional. We will express our stance to Dr. Leu."

After that, he turned around and walked towards Macrae's room with a group of people behind him.

There was a trace of concern in Bardolph's eyes as he watched them leave. He knew that Macrae wasn't satisfied with the addition of the traditional Chinese Medicine team. With Sergio and the others speaking up now, he might actually expel Fade from the team using this as an excuse.

As he thought of this, Bardolph stood forward and stopped Sergio.

"Bardolph, what are you doing? Now that you have no words left, are you trying to use force?" Sergio sneered.

Bardolph's expression darkened at his words.

However, Fade quickly stopped him, shook his head and said, "Don't worry, let them go."

"But, Fade, you..." Bardolph looked at him with concern.

Fade smiled confidently and reassured him, "Don't worry, I won't be expelled." "You won't? Let's wait and see!" Sergio snorted and strode towards Macrae's room with the group of people behind him. Behind him, Bardolph and the others were still anxious.

Upon seeing this, Fade smiled and stated, "If you don't believe me, let's go and have a look together."

As a result, they also followed the other team.

When they arrived, Sergio and the others had already knocked on Macrae's door. It just so happened that Flynt was in the room as well. He seemed to be discussing something with Macrae. Seeing that the team members had gathered together, the two men were shocked.

Macrae was the first to ask, "Sergio, there are so many of you here. What's the matter?"

Sergio glanced at Flynt and then at Macrae. He then stated, "Dr. Leu, we have a request. We want to talk to you."

"Please!" Macrae looked at him and the others, and then looked at Bardolph and the others, whose expressions were grim. He could vaguely guess what they wanted to say. With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he turned to Sergio. "Tell me, what is the request?"

Sergio turned to glare at Fade as he said, "Dr. Leu, after a discussion, we all agree that it will greatly affect our original plan and our team's unity if we temporarily recruit a teammate who won't be of any help. Therefore, we propose to expel Fade from the team."

"Expel Fade from the team!" Macrae looked surprised. He was stunned for a moment, then glanced at everyone and asked, "Do you all think so?"

"Yes, we do."

"That's what we all think."

"We strongly request to expel Fade."

A round of agreement rang out.

Bardolph saw this and realized that something was wrong. He quickly stated, "We do not agree. We support Fade joining our team. It was Sergio's idea to expel Fade." "We support Fade."

"I think Fade is very powerful. It's also a good thing for us to have one more person."

"Fade is very nice. He is very kind to us."

The remaining three people immediately agreed with Bardolph's words.

Upon seeing this, Macrae glanced at Flynt, who was next to him. With an awkward expression, he said, "Master Choi, I really didn't expect this situation. This..."

Macrae's attitude showed his inner

thoughts clearly. It seemed that, as Bardolph had guessed, Macrae was either dissatisfied with Fade's impromptu participation, or he was already biased against traditional Chinese medicine. He was using this opportunity as an excuse to express his stance.

Obviously, Flynt had realized this. He snorted softly and replied, "I was the one who recommended Fade to join the team."

Macrae fell silent as he shot Sergio a look.

Sergio quickly understood. He

nodded slightly and said, "Master Choi, we respect you very much. However, the rules are the rules. There are only a few days left before the exhibition. If we recruit people at this moment, it will be a huge disturbance to our overall plan. We are not targeting Fade, onyou, Master Choi. We are doing this for the sake of the entire team."

He had worded it so nicely that no one could find any fault in his words.

Macrae nodded as he replied, "You're right."

Bardolph then piped up, "Why are you saying that Fade will harm our team? Who knows if he would be of help to our team! Why aren't you mentioning that possibility? Isn't it just because you're biased?"

Sergio looked at him and remarked

with disdain, Bardolph, I'm not looking down on you. It's just that you have to understand that

traditional Chinese medicine has not received any approval for this new

medicine exhibition. No matter how

powerful Fade is, he can't be of help to our team."

"Everyone is well aware of this matter."

As soon as these words were said, Bardolph's face couldn't help but sink. His face was full of indignation. He wanted to refute Sergio's claim, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't know what to say. After all, Sergio was telling the truth.

In an instant, the atmosphere grew tense and awkward.

Macrae deliberately glanced at Flynt, putting on an act as if he was caught between a rock and a hard place.
