原文
Embattled Chinese coffee chain Luckin Coffee Inc. said it no longer plans to appeal a decision by the Nasdaq Stock Market to delist its shares, and the company's board proposed to remove its chairman as an internal investigation deepened.
As a result, the company's shares will be removed from the Nasdaq stock market on June 29 at the start of the business day, just 13 months after the company had initially made its debut on the stock market, with an IPO worth $561 million.
