I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 318 All I know is that she fell in love with someone else quite quickly.

The three of them observed them chatting and laughing.

Zhou Hongyu was completely stunned. It felt as if an invisible boulder was pressing down on his heart. His lips trembled uncontrollably, and his mind went blank...

The glimmer of hope that had just been ignited, the last remaining sliver of chance, vanished without a trace in that instant...

"hiss--"

Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran gasped in shock; they hadn't expected that the two of them were actually in trouble!

They had just argued with Zhou Hongyu, but they were proven wrong so quickly!

"Uh... let's go, let's go, it's none of our business..."

Zhou Heng quickly grabbed Yin Mengran's hand and hurriedly led her away; they didn't want to get involved in this...

"Then I said to him, 'Why are you acting like a rebellious son, always going against me?'"

"Hahaha...you're really funny..."

Tong Yining covered her mouth, her eyes crinkling at the corners. She was especially happy to hear Bai Cang's words and giggled with delight...

After walking a few steps, the two noticed someone ahead of them and turned around to look.

The moment he saw Zhou Hongyu in front of him, he froze, standing rooted to the spot...

Zhou Hongyu's face was cold, and his eyes looked down, staring at the two people's clasped hands.

Tong Yining realized something, looked at her hand being held by Bai Cang, and subconsciously tried to pull away.

But Bai Cang suddenly tightened his grip, holding Tong Yining's hand firmly, not allowing her to let go...

Zhou Hongyu spoke slowly, coldly saying:

"I knew it! You were trying to deny it yesterday, what was the point?"

"I..."

Tong Yining was speechless for a moment. She really hadn't done anything wrong yesterday; Zhou Hongyu had indeed misunderstood.

But now... it seems I've confirmed the misunderstanding...

Little did she know that she would get involved with Bai Cang.

Bai Cang, as if stepping forward to protect Tong Yining, stared into Zhou Hongyu's eyes and said calmly:

"I only contacted Tongtong after you left yesterday, so it's not what you think."

"I don't know exactly what happened, all I know is that she fell in love with someone else very quickly."

Zhou Hongyu rolled her eyes at him and said irritably,

This would be a painful experience for anyone; one day she was your girlfriend, and the next day she was holding someone else's hand.

Tong Yining was also extremely embarrassed. She knew Zhou Hongyu was right; she had indeed fallen for someone else far too quickly...

It's such a seamless transition! How shameless must I be...?

"That has nothing to do with you. She officially broke up with you. Nobody says how long you have to wait after a breakup before you can start a new relationship, so she did nothing wrong. If you want to do something, take it out on me, don't take it out on her."

Bai Cang replied, his words ringing with conviction. Tong Yining was taken aback, then looked up at Bai Cang's profile. Seeing the determination in his eyes, Tong Yining's heart suddenly raced...

At that moment, her eyes shone with light as she looked at Bai Cang...

That's exactly what she likes! That's why she's attracted to guys like that!

If Zhou Hongyu had stood up for me like that yesterday, protected me, and acted like a man, bravely taking responsibility, I wouldn't be so disappointed in him...

"Okay...alright..."

Zhou Hongyu was momentarily intimidated by Bai Cang's imposing aura. He spoke these words, but his voice was very soft.

After all, how could he possibly dare to lose his temper with Bai Cang... He didn't even consider Bai Cang's status, or whose territory this was...

"week..."

Zhou Hongyu had just turned around, wanting to call Zhou Heng to come and see if this person was reasonable or not.

When he turned around, there was no one behind him; Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran had left sometime earlier...

"Tsk..."

Seeing that he had lost his backer, Zhou Hongyu dared not stay any longer. He was unwilling, but still wanted to leave the hotel safely.

So he grabbed his things and quickly left...

Seeing Zhou Hongyu leave, Bai Cang turned to look at Tong Yining, smiled slightly at her, and said softly:

"It's alright, shall I take you?"

"Ah...okay...okay."

Tong Yining snapped out of her daze and nodded blankly.

She couldn't see her own face, but a faint blush was already spreading across it...

Bai Cang drove Tong Yining back to her school and parked the car at the school gate.

Tong Yining got out of the car with her things, stood there, waved to Bai Cang, and whispered:

"Bye-Bye..."

She was still somewhat caught up in that feeling; her voice was light and airy, and it was hard to tell what she was thinking.

After saying that, she picked up her things, turned around, and headed to walk into the school.

He had only taken two steps when Bai Cang called out to him from behind:

"Tongtong, wait a minute!"

"Ah...what happened?"

Tong Yining turned to look at Bai Cang, only to see Bai Cang holding a phone in his hand, waving it, and saying with a smile:

"Did you forget something? How can I contact you next time?"

"Ah...oh right." Tong Yining then realized that she and Bai Cang didn't have each other's contact information.

But the fact that Bai Cang actually asked her for it suggests that maybe there's a real chance for them...

After they became friends, they officially parted ways; Tong Yining returned to school.

Bai Cang was also preparing to return to school. He drove for a while before finally arriving back at Dongzhu University.

As soon as he got off the bus, he received a call from Yu Lingxue...

"Hello? What's wrong?"

"I sent you my location. Come over here, I need to talk to you."

"Ah... okay then."

Bai Cang was a little puzzled and muttered something, but didn't ask what it was about.

He found it in no time, following the location given by Yu Lingxue.

From a distance, he saw two people standing under a large tree not far away: Tang Zhi and Yu Lingxue.

Bai Cang had a bad feeling, so he quickly went over and greeted them:

"Uh... what's up, Sister Tang? What do you need me for?"

The two stared at Bai Cang for a few seconds before Tang Zhi spoke first, asking:

"You...are with Tong Yining?"

After Zhou Heng and Yin Mengran returned, they told Tang Zhi and Yu Lingxue about it, which greatly surprised them...

After all, they know Bai Cang's secret—doesn't he like men? How did he get involved with Tong Yining again?

"Huh? Oh... her? No, how did you guys know?"

Bai Cang paused for a moment, then answered the question, still somewhat puzzled.

Yu Lingxue frowned, took two steps forward, and questioned, "Really? Are you sure? You're not lying?"

Bai Cang was forced back a few steps, shook his head, and said:

"No, I wasn't with her. I just...held her hand, it was just...casual fun."
