The Substitute Groom Chases His Wife - Chapter 250
Chapter 250: Hide
Knock! Knock!
“Nuan Nuan?” Shi Xi called again. “Are you still sleeping?”
An Nuan turned to Lin Xiao Feng. The panic in her eyes was very obvious. “Lin Xiao Feng!” An Nuan gripped his arm tightly. “It’s my mother.”
Lin Xiao Feng tried not to laugh when he saw his girlfriend’s reaction. “I know.”
If he teased An Nuan now, she would only get upset.
“What are we going to do?” An Nuan looked around her room, wondering what they should do. Her eyes fell on the clock on the wall. An Nuan inhaled a sharp breath when she saw the time.
More than an hour has passed since the last time she glanced at the time.
An Nuan wondered if they had been kissing for so long.
Was she that lustful?
An Nuan was starting to worry that she might do something wild to Lin Xiao Feng the next time they were alone again.
After all, she took the initiative to kiss Lin Xiao Feng the last time, right?
Of course, An Nuan was unaware that Lin Xiao Feng had let her sleep longer after her alarm rang the first time.
“Nuan Nuan?”
An Nuan knew that she could not pretend to be dead for a long time. Her mother would not stop knocking on her door unless she came out.
“Relax.” Lin Xiao Feng patted An Nuan’s head. “I’ll hide in the bathroom. Will that be okay?”
An Nuan considered Lin Xiao Feng’s suggestion and thought that it would be a good idea.
Her mother probably came over to tell her something. Perhaps she will leave in a while.
The most important thing was to hide Lin Xiao Feng from her mother.
“Un.” An Nuan nodded. “Quickly. You should hide.” She jumped off her bed while pulling Lin Xiao Feng’s arm.
Lin Xiao Feng followed his wife’s lead obediently and stopped in front of the bathroom.
“Lin Xiao Feng. Don’t make a sound, alright?” An Nuan shot a warning look.
“Un. I know.” Lin Xiao Feng nodded. “I won’t let your mother catch us.”
An Nuan saw the hint of a smile on Lin Xiao Feng’s face. However, she did not have much time to dwell on it. She pushed Lin Xiao Feng into the bathroom and closed the door.
After taking a few deep breaths to calm down, An Nuan walked to the door, ready to face her mother.
“Nuan Nuan?” Shi Xi was about to knock on her daughter’s door again when the door was opened from the inside.
A few seconds later, An Nuan’s head appeared. Her face was red and her hair was messy.
“Mom?” An Nuan rubbed her eyes, pretending as if she had just woken up. “What’s wrong?
“Sorry to disturb you.” Shi Xi flashed an apologetic smile. “It’s just that…” She glanced at the guest’s room next to her daughter’s. “Did Xiao Feng come back last night?”
An Nuan’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that her mother was looking for Lin Xiao Feng.

She wondered if her mother might know that the man was currently in her bedroom.
“The door was slightly ajar,” Shi Xi continued.
An Nuan followed her mother’s line of gaze and saw that Lin Xiao Feng’s door was not shut properly.
“But the person is not there,” Shi Xi said.
An Nuan tried to think of something to tell her mother. “Mom…Maybe Lin Xiao Feng went out for his morning jog.” An awkward smile appeared on her lips. “Mom, Lin Xiao Feng had a habit of going out for a jog early in the morning.”
“Really?” Shi Xi looked skeptical. After all, she did find the bed too neat. It looked like Lin Xiao Feng hadn’t been sleeping on it. But then, there was also the chance that Lin Xiao Feng had made up the bed before heading out.
“Uh-huh.” An Nuan nodded. “Last night, I was still awake when he returned. Mom, you don’t have to worry.”
Shi Xi thought that Lin Xiao Feng might have gone to stay at his parents’ place instead. But listening to her daughter’s words, Shi Xi decided that An Nuan was telling the truth.
“You waited for him last night?” Shi Xi flashed a teasing smile.
“Un. I was worried that he might be drunk,” An Nuan came up with an excuse. “He went out to drink with his friends.”
Shi Xi was just too happy to hear her daughter’s words. She could tell that the couple’s relationship had turned better. Since An Nuan was worried about Lin Xiao Feng, it showed that she cared for that man.
Shi Xi was looking forward to seeing the couple get together.
Then, she could stop worrying about An Nuan.
In the future, perhaps she could expect to carry another grandchildren.
Fortunately, An Nuan was unaware of her mother’s thoughts.
“Then, I better ask them to prepare breakfast quickly,” Shi Xi said. “Xiao Feng should be hungry when he comes home after his jog.”
An Nuan began to panic again.
The person her mother was looking for was currently hiding in her bathroom.
How can she make him return from his morning jog?
“Nuan Nuan, you should wash up as well,” Shi Xi said. “Later, when Xiao Feng returns, we can all have breakfast together. Didn’t you say that you are going out early this morning?”
“Mhm…” An Nuan tried to hide her expression. “Mom, I’ll go and wash up first.”
After exchanging a few more words, her mother left and An Nuan quickly locked the door behind her.
Lin Xiao Feng was in her room and she did not want to take the chance of letting her mother discover him.
But now, she had another pressing matter to discuss with Lin Xiao Feng.
How was she going to make Lin Xiao Feng return from his morning jog?
An Nuan walked to the bathroom and knocked. “Lin Xiao Feng! Are you alright?”
A brief seconds later, the door was opened from the inside.
Lin Xiao Feng stood in front of An Nuan with an amused smile on his face. “Is your mother gone?”
