The Substitute Groom Chases His Wife - Chapter 227

Chapter 227: Trust Me

They soon moved to the second location.

Yesterday, Mr. Jiang had taken them to this same spot for sightseeing.

The area of the lake was full of lotus leaves and the flowers bloomed prettily.

Knowing that the Lin couple was in D Town for their wedding photoshoot, Mr. Jiang spoke to a few locals to help them with a few matters.

When they arrived at the scene, Lin Xiao Feng and An Nuan were surprised to find that Mr. Jiang had prepared a rowing boat for them to use.

The photographer took one look at the boat and smiled happily, thinking that he could use this prop for the wedding photoshoot.

While they had a photo shoot in the forest, the photographer noticed that the couple was too awkward around each other.

They could not look at each other in the eyes when he instructed them to. The way they interacted with each other was a bit stiff.

Even if the photographer had good skills, he could not do anything when the bride and groom could not give him what he wanted.

Fortunately, the photographer was experienced and had met a lot of couples in his career.

Not every couple he worked with were lovers.

There were many reasons a couple chose to get married.

The photographer deduced that his client this time was married not for love.

Later, the photographer could only let the couple hold hands while they walked around the forest.

The client looked awkward but it was not as if they were hopeless.

He decided to take things slow with the couple.

Perhaps they just needed a bit of warm-up before they could give him something good.

The lighting around the lake area was perfect and the scenery was beautiful.

This time, the photographer hoped that he would be able to get something better from the couple.

Perhaps, the romantic scenery would ignite something from the couple.

“Mr. Lin, Mrs. Lin, why don’t you sit on the boat first?” The photographer said. “Let me take a few tests first.”

While the photographer was adjusting his camera, Lin Xiao Feng hopped into the boat before turning to An Nuan. “Come on.” Lin Xiao Feng stretched his hand to An Nuan and waited for her to put her hand into his.

An Nuan looked at the boat before shifting her gaze to Lin Xiao Feng.

The boat under Lin Xiao Feng’s feet was swaying slightly.

An Nuan wondered if the boat was steady enough for both of them to sit in.

“What’s the matter?” Lin Xiao Feng asked when An Nuan did not take his hand.

“Lin Xiao Feng, is the boat steady enough?”

His gaze softened when he realized that An Nuan was just scared.

“Don’t worry,” Lin Xiao Feng said. “I think it’s steady enough. Don’t be afraid.”

After a brief hesitation, An Nuan finally put her hand into Lin Xiao Feng’s hand. However, she did not make a move to hop into the boat.

An Nuan did not mind a bigger boat, knowing that it was very steady. However, it was different with a rowing boat.

What she was afraid of the most was that the boat would turn over the moment she stepped onto it.

Right now, she was wearing a pretty wedding dress. If she fell into the water, wouldn’t the dress get wet?

An Nuan knew that she should step on the boat for the photoshoot.

However, she was hesitating at the thought that she might get hurt from one misstep.

“An Nuan.”

His voice made An Nuan look up to meet his gaze.

“I won’t let you fall,” Lin Xiao Feng said. “I will catch you. I won’t let anything happen to you. An Nuan” He stared straight into An Nuan’s eyes and held her hand tighter as if to assure her that things would be alright. “Trust me.”

Lin Xiao Feng could give An Nuan’s hand a tug and let her step onto the boat. However, he wanted to wait for An Nuan to take the final step herself.

Her heart skipped a beat.

An Nuan’s gaze fell on Lin Xiao Feng’s hand.

Right now, he was holding her hand tightly while looking at her in assurance. He was telling her that she would be safe if she took the leap towards him. He would protect her from harm.

Subconsciously, An Nuan tightened her grip on Lin Xiao Feng’s hand.

Would it be all right for her to take this chance?

Perhaps she could trust Lin Xiao Feng this one time.

An Nuan inhaled a deep breath. With her free hand, An Nuan held her skirt tighter. Then, she raised one foot and stepped onto the boat.

The boat swayed slightly with her weight. An Nuan closed her eyes tightly as she braced herself for her fall.

However, what she had been expecting did not happen.

An Nuan looked up again only to see that she was in Lin Xiao Feng’s embrace.

“I told you, didn’t I?”

Lin Xiao Feng’s breath caressed her ear.

“An Nuan, I will catch you.” His lips tilted into a smile.

An Nuan stared back at Lin Xiao Feng with a dazed look on her face.

Meanwhile, the photographer had long noticed her exchange. He raised his camera and snapped a few photos of the couple together.

He was planning to test his camera with his surroundings. Unexpectedly, he managed to shoot a few interesting photos.

The shoots from this time were better than the ones in the forest. He wondered if this session would only get better as time passed by.

“Come on. Sit down properly.” Lin Xiao Feng helped An Nuan to sit on one side. Then, he leaned in to adjust An Nuan’s skirt.

An Nuan finally heaved in relief once Lin Xiao Feng released her from his embrace.

Her heart was still beating fast and her mind was in a mess. However, there was also a sense of calmness.

“Alright, we’re going to start now,” the photographer announced.

An Nuan composed his thoughts and started to follow the photographer’s instructions as they continued their shoot.
