Please don't delete the transaction unless you really don't like good
accounting practices.  Always leave a trace of what you do and why.

Just select the original cheque payment, choose "Add reversing
transaction
<https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-help/trans-reverse.html>",
modify the date and give it a slightly different number (I prepend "X"
to transaction numbers that are cancellations, any convention will do),
and add a description like "cheque returned for insufficient funds".

Separately, add an entry for the bank fee.  Refer to the transaction
number of the returned cheque (the X... in my world).
