Speaking exercise

The day before yesterday, my company’s project office moved from the HuaiHai Road to the Bund Center. Yesterday, something happened. My colleague Corine from the office next door moved a lot of plants. Corine think the plant is useless because the office next door moved out. The building worker find the plants, he yelled ”who moved the plants?” I was walking out of the elevator, I told him, “be quiet!” I was very angry. I yelled at him, “this office we need a quiet environment, you cannot yell here”.  His blushed, but he told me he lost his plants. I was angry and told him ” you need to check the monitor.” He said, “the building monitor is bad”, but I said “just a few plants, no worries”.
