Jian Chi subconsciously supported the ground with his backhand, barely lessening the impact. After the dizziness dissipated, although he couldn’t see clearly in the night, he also knew that his hands and clothes must have pressed into the soil and stones.

Remembering that he had promised to return the suit to Ji Huaisi, Jian Chi raised his heart and endured the pain to get up to check whether his clothes were scratched. Ignoring the maintenance of a distance, Shen Shuting walked over and roughly dragged him aside, staring at the broken flower branches on the ground.

At the moment of the fall, Jian Chi subconsciously wanted to grab something, but he didn’t expect to break the flowers next to him. He looked at Shen Shuting’s unpredictable face and whispered, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to.”

Shen Shuting didn’t look at him, his voice was as ethereal as the moonlight, and every word echoed out loud: “I brought this bunch of Calda roses via plane from Boros and raised them for three years. Do you know how much the two roses you broke are worth?”

Jian Chi felt a chill in his heart, he didn’t want to know at all, but the silent low air pressure made it hard for him to breathe, so he bit his mouth and asked, “How much?”

“This bundle is 2 million in Boros currency, equivalent to 17 million Chinese currency,” Shen Shuting said, “You broke two pieces, a total of 5 million.”

Jian Chi had not seen, nor hear of such a large amount. His heart felt like he had been hit hard, and he broke out in cold sweat and deep annoyance. If it weren’t for his curiosity, he would never have looked in through the door. If he and Bai Xiyu walked back to the dormitory just now, he would never have met Shen Shuting here and be hit on the head by this unfortunate incident.

Bai Xiyu……

Immediately, when he heard Shen Shuting stop halting, the fragments that had crossed his mind reappeared, and his heartbeat was accelerated in bursts.

In the original book, Bai Xiyu also broke into a garden, accidentally stepping on flowers and plants when walking in, and was discovered by Shen Shuting in the garden.

At that time, Bai Xiyu became a thorn in the eyes of Bai Shuyun and the whole school because of Shao Hang. After being slandered, he became depressed and lost his way on campus. Who knew that he would stray into Shen Shuting’s garden and damage the flowers. Bai Xiyu apologized and offered to help Shen Shuting take care of the garden as an apology. Of course Shen Shuting refused him, but Bai Xiyu came uninvited the next day, and every day after that. Shen Shuting rejected it with a cold face at first, and then acquiesced to all this happening.

It stands to reason that this episode happened before the dance. Although Jian Chi had an impression, he also thought that it had disappeared in the derailed episodes. Yet unexpectedly, the episode was not only delayed, but also fell on his head again.

Jian Chi recalled Bai Xiyu who was sitting next to the fountain just now. If he didn’t come out to relax and tell the depressed Bai Xiyu go back to the dormitory to rest, would Bai Xiyu continue to walk forward and break into this garden? Will the plot have also happened to the right people?

This thought made Jian Chi’s heart sink, as if he had stepped out of the cloud, weightless and lost until Shen Shuting’s voice sounded again, mercilessly: “Have you thought about the way of compensation?”

“I…” Jian Chi felt a heavy debt on his shoulders and was speechless, “I don’t have that much money.”

In fact, he wanted to ask Shen Shuting why he planted such precious flowers in the open-air garden. There are people coming and going all over the campus, isn’t he worried about an accident like just now?
