Chapter 382: Chapter 382: He Teng’s Maintenance 10_1

"This is the first time Lin Deng has given me something so important! And I couldn’t even protect it well~" Jiang Biyun sobbed, struggling to catch her breath. It was only with Chen Xiting’s reminder that she held the cactus carefully in her hands.

He Zhilan and Chen Xiting comforted Jiang Biyun all the way back to the dormitory. In actuality, the person who did this didn’t need to be guessed at—a single person comes to mind, Gu En. When the three returned to the dormitory, Gu En was already gone, leaving only Huang Cai and Wang Bingbing, who wore expressions of guilt.

"Jiang Biyun, I’m sorry. Gu En pushed over your cactus, but Huang Cai and I didn’t dare to stop her," Wang Bingbing said, "We both originally wanted to go downstairs to help you pick it up, but she forbade us from going."

Jiang Biyun shook her head, "It’s not your fault." Then, she found a small plastic basin to replant the cactus, placing it on her own desk, no longer daring to put it on the windowsill.

Upon Gu En’s return from washing up, she saw the replanted cactus back in the dormitory and the three surrounding it. She let out a soft laugh, "Oh, you picked it up? My hand slipped just now, when I was pushing the window, it ended up pushing this out as well."

Having said that, Gu En didn’t pay anyone any mind, taking her books and leaving the dormitory.

"What an act!" Chen Xiting sneered at Gu En’s retreating figure.

This kind of explanation, in Huang Cai and Wang Bingbing’s eyes, was not at all convincing. After all, they both saw Gu En throw the cactus down in anger, not allowing them to go pick it up.

"Let her vent by throwing the cactus, it’s better than if she vented by throwing us." Jiang Biyun was half dead from heartache, but still didn’t lose her temper as she bit her lip. She verbally let it go, but her eyes were suffused with red, a mixture of grievance and rage.

After the cactus incident, Gu En seems to have calmed down. She no longer caused any trouble for He Zhilan, and resumed her normal student life. She stopped going out to play every night, went to class more frequently, and for a whole month, the dormitory enjoyed a rare peace.

However, over that month, no one in the dormitory acknowledged Gu En, and Gu En treated everyone else as if they didn’t exist. She made, however, no suggestion of switching dormitories.

On the last day of December, to He Zhilan’s surprise, Shang Cunshu from R Country suddenly declared bankruptcy. It was a bit different from her previous life, where the cloth issue had not widespread even after a month, yet the Shang Cunshu enterprise declared bankruptcy even before the issue had arisen.

He Zhilan remembered, in her previous life, it wasn’t like this. In that life, the cloth issue had been discovered first, then the Shang Cunshu enterprise declared bankruptcy and stopped dealing with the matter.

Later, He Zhilan asked Lin Chan and found out that Ding Long chose slower sea freight to cut costs, and it wasn’t direct, so there was some delay in the middle. The cloth couldn’t have been in the possession of the Ding Long Company for more than half a month before it was sold. Even if there were problems in some places, they weren’t immediately linked to the cloth.

The most important thing was that Shang Cunshu’s sudden bankruptcy announcement allowed Ding Long to seize the opportunity to increase product prices and make a big profit.

In contrast to the thriving Ding Long, Lin Chan’s company was progressing slower. It wasn’t until after Shang Cunshu declared bankruptcy that Lin Chan received news from their technicians and sent someone to bring them back to the country. However, the factory that Lin Chan acquired was progressing nicely. From the day Shang Cunshu declared bankruptcy, Lin Chan looked proud and pleased, her face always beaming.
