Chapter 28 Relief
Du Heng stopped in his tracks, turned his head to look at Su Bei, and asked silently.

"I think you should apologize to Gu Jianing." Su Bei's voice was low, but there was an air that could not be refuted for no reason.

The mood was halfway on a roller coaster, falling from the highest point, and the last hope in Du Heng's heart was shattered.

"You mean you want me to apologize to her?" Du Heng couldn't believe what he just heard.

Su Bei's tone was affirmative, "That's right."

"Why should I apologize to her?" Du Heng tried his best to control his expression and voice, maintaining his image in front of Su Bei.

"She is not the person you said. Our two families are family friends. My parents went to Australia on a business trip, so I stayed at her house for a few days. And you asked her to deliver the letter to me, and she delivered the letter intact. Handed it over to me, I wonder what she did wrong?"

When Du Heng walked to Gu Jianing's side, Su Bei had already walked to the door of the classroom, but he thought that there were only two girls in the classroom, and it might not be convenient for him to go in, so he waited outside until he saw that Du Heng was about to call her. Gu Jianing couldn't help but slap her in the face.

"Let's go." Gu Jianing picked up his schoolbag and made a gesture to leave.

She didn't expect Du Heng to apologize to her at all, and her reaction just now was to provoke Du Heng on purpose.

She thought that since peaceful co-existence could not be achieved, it would be better to kill each other, at least save the false politeness in the future.

The only thing she didn't expect was that Su Bei would stand up for her.

"Wait." Su Bei stretched out his hand to hold Gu Jianing's wrist.

Su Bei looked at Du Heng with cold eyes, "Apologize."

Embarrassment, anger, and shame mixed together, and Du Heng remained silent for a long time without opening his mouth.

Su Bei kept holding Gu Jianing's arm and did not let go.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the atmosphere seemed to freeze into ice.

"Sorry, Gu Jianing, I misunderstood you."

Du Heng has a temperament of correcting mistakes, and now she is indeed the one who misunderstood Gu Jianing, so it is understandable for her to apologize.

She hesitated and remained silent because she was sad that Su Bei was so protective of Gu Jianing, and she still insisted on seeking justice for her when Gu Jianing was about to give up.

"It's okay." Gu Jianing spoke calmly, and after finishing speaking, he broke away from Su Bei and strode out of the classroom.

"My attitude was a bit bad just now, and I also apologize to you." After Su Bei said to Du Heng, he quickly packed his schoolbag and chased after Gu Jianing.

The setting sun cast the last rays of light in the classroom, and Du Heng stood in the intersection of light and shadow, looking at the direction where Su Bei disappeared, lost in thought for a long time.

Gu Jianing walked very fast, and it was only when Su Bei was approaching the bus stop that she managed to catch up with her.

It happened that a No. 547 bus stopped at the platform. The two got on the bus one after another, found seats in the back row and sat down.

"Don't you have anything to say?" After a long silence, Su Bei finally spoke first.

In the recent days of getting along, Su Bei found that Gu Jianing's endurance and perseverance are simply amazing. If the two of them are blocked and don't speak, he must be the first to compromise in the end.

To get Gu Jianing to take the initiative to talk and find a topic, it is simply as difficult as climbing the sky.

"No." Gu Jianing tilted his head and looked out the window, answering casually.

"Du Heng framed you just now, why didn't you explain?" Su Bei thought all the way but couldn't figure it out. From his point of view, Gu Jianing didn't seem to care about being misunderstood, and even led Du Heng to continue walking in the direction of misunderstanding her.

Gu Jianing turned her head and looked directly into Su Bei's eyes, "Then why did you help me out just now?"
