    I don't know the name as it is a mix of diff plants, I only recognize one of them is 紫蘿蘭 (with hairy leaves, right?)

You know, it has been alright without any sunlight, only little water for 2 years and I assumed it should be fine, but suddently I found it dying...I'm so sad

did u turn off your office light? Most of the office plants live off office lighting instead of real sunlight. If your office is doing some energy saving measure, it may affect how much "fake" light your plant is getting.
btw African Violet loves office florence lights. I usuaully water my office plants once a week.

Not enough light and water.
Try place the plant beside a window or bring it home and put it beside a window.
Water twice a day (don't over water) and see if it is better.
Cut out those yellow or soft leaves to save plant's energy.

it's sound like mixed planter in the big pot..

can't u take a picture from your plant and post it here? 'cuz it's hard to tell .. different plant need different care..

if violet.. need to water 3 times a week, just only water to the soil whenever the soil look dry or feel dry.. don't pour water on the violet's leaves.. it'll turn yellow..

Thanks, I'll try this out.... btw, there are so many soft leaves (almost the whole thing, it's a plant with a lot of small round green leave, I don't know the name, it was crispy & dark green before it went bad) that I don't think I should cut them, I'll try to put it besides a window to see if it would improve.
