Chapter 392: Chapter 392 Incident with Shang Cunshu_1

Mother Tan sighed as she said this. She was probably afraid that speaking more could raise He Teng’s suspicions, so she changed the topic, casually teasing Tan Heqian for a bit.

When the mood had considerably lightened, Mother Tan returned to the topic of He Zhilan. This time, instead of discussing the relationship between He Zhilan and He Teng, she commented on He Zhilan’s clothing. "Miss Zhilan, your dress material seems so similar to that of R Country’s designer, Shang Cunshu?"

"Yes." He Zhilan nodded. The coat was a gift from Lin Chan from the last time he had visited, and she only just began wearing it recently.

"Mom, the clothing was given to He Zhilan by a friend of hers. Her friend is really nice. Her husband has even met this friend before. The friend is a good brother of her husband’s comrade!" Tan Heqian worried that his mother would overthink the situation. After all, given the He family’s current financial situation, they could not afford clothing from brands like Shang Cunshu. He was worried that his mother would perceive He Zhilan as a materialistic and naive girl since her clothing did not match the He family’s financial status.

Mother Tan rolled her eyes at Tan Heqian. From the moment she laid eyes on He Zhilan at the train station, she knew that He Zhilan was not a frivolous girl. She conveyed a clear-eyed innocence, never paying excessive attention to anyone or anything around her. Clearly, such a girl must be obedient and decorous.

"Let you talk!" Mother Tan knocked Tan Heqian lightly before continuing, "Have you noticed anything wrong with the cloth you’re wearing? In our place, there were considerable issues with the cloth. Many people who wore clothes made with it experienced full-body itching, and some even had red spots and had to be hospitalized! Now, many people are making a fuss, and no one in our place dares to use this cloth anymore!"

Upon hearing Mother Tan’s words, He Zhilan’s heart jumped. Had the problem emerged first in the south? Did that mean it would soon cause an uproar in the north as well?

Could Ding Jinshi avoid marrying Ding Long before the problem occurred?

It would be best if Ding Long’s company went bankrupt due to this, and then Ding Jinshi’s family would prevent Ding Jinshi from marrying Ding Long!

He Teng just stared grimly at Zhilan without speaking. No one knew what He Teng was thinking at this moment.

"Although your coat looks nice, you shouldn’t wear it anymore. If you get sick from wearing it, what will you do? It’s such a hassle, especially in this cold winter. I saw those patients. They were scratching and crying, covered in red spots. Just thinking about it is scary." Mother Tan confessed her fears too.

On hearing this, Tan Heqian and others looked anxiously at Zhilan and the coat she was wearing. "He Zhilan, you should take it off, it’s terrifying!"

"It’s okay! It’s okay!" He Zhilan smiled and explained, "The problematic cloth is not from the same batch as the one my coat is made from. The problematic batch is the recent one from Shang Cunshu. The person Shang Cunshu is currently collaborating with is not my friend anymore. The clothes from my friend are good and trouble-free. The problem lies with the recent batch from the new partner of Shang Cunshu."

Mother Tan didn’t really understand about the partners and all that. She only knew that Shang Cunshu had declared bankruptcy, which was clearly an indicator of some trouble in their company. So, she insisted He Zhilan takes her advice and not wear the coat.

He Zhilan didn’t persist nor argue with Mother Tan, just courteously agreed with a smile. She knew that Mother Tan really cared about her. Otherwise, who would bother whether she was sick or not?
