Chapter 287: We Should All Be Well

Rong Shen left, Jiang Bei's first words to Su Mu were an apology:

"I'm sorry, you're really not in a state to be worrying about my issues, I never intended for you to see me like this, but that's the reality."

Su Mu sat a little closer to Jiang Bei:

"Are you really with him?"

"In this situation, does it really make a difference whether we are together or not? Perhaps it does, at least it makes the fact that we've slept together seem more justified."

"Xiaobei..." Su Mu had never heard her speak so disheartenedly, he suddenly felt very sorry for her; she had always been so confident, resentful of evil, and decisive. Yet, she changed entirely in front of Rong Shen, almost to the point where Su Mu could hardly recognize her.

"I'm fine," Jiang Bei reassured her. "Don't worry about me anymore. I'm leaving tomorrow and yet you have had such a big incident, I'm really worried about you. Should I stay with you a little longer, and let my parents handle the matter of my sabbatical?"
