The Substitute Groom Chases His Wife - Chapter 300

Chapter 300: Incoming Storm
An Nuan sat quietly as Master Zhuang studied the sketches in his hand.

Her heart was beating fast as she hoped that the master would give her the answer she desired.

After a moment that felt like forever, Master Zhuang raised his head to look at An Nuan again. “Your drawing looks good.”

An Nuan smiled. “Thank you.”

“It won’t be difficult to craft this ring within the time you need,” Master Zhuang said.

The light in An Nuan’s eyes lit up. She was very happy to know that Master Zhuang could help her make the ring for Lin Xiao Feng before their wedding.

“Then, can you help me?” An Nuan asked. “You can quote your price or conditions. I will try to fulfill it.”

The man glanced at An Nuan’s sketch again. Then, a soft smile curled on his lips. “Miss An, looking at your sketch, I wonder if you are a designer?”

“That’s right. I’m a jewelry designer.”

“Then, I’m guessing that you should learn crafting as well.”

An Nuan had an embarrassed smile on her lips. “I have. But my skills are not that good.”

“Miss An, I wonder if you know about my workshop?” Master Zhuang asked.

An Nuan nodded. “I know. I read a bit about it while looking for information about you.”

“Then, don’t you want to consider crafting the ring yourself?”

“It’s not that I haven’t considered this choice. But really. My skills are really not that good,” An Nuan said. “I’m afraid that I won’t be able to finish this ring before the wedding.”

An Nuan knew her skills well. If she was good at it, she would consider making the ring for Lin Xiao Feng herself. The design for the ring was simple. It should not be difficult for her to craft it. But then, An Nuan wanted everything to be perfect.

If she was the one who crafted the ring, she would be making a lot of mistakes.

It would take a lot of time to repair the mistake.

Then, she won’t be able to finish the ring before the wedding.

Moreover, she was now busy with her company matters. She did not have time to run around back and forth.

“Miss An, I can help you craft the wedding ring,” Master Zhuang said.

The smile on An Nuan’s lips widened. “Master Zhuang, thank you.”

The man raised a hand, signaling that he had more to say. “As for the inscription on the ring…” He caressed the paper in his hand with his finger. “Miss An, would you like to do it yourself?”

An Nuan looked surprised.

She was about to reject Master Zhuang’s idea when the man spoke again.

“This is just a recommendation.” Master Zhuang chuckled. “You said that you are going to prepare this ring for your husband. I thought that you would want to add something personally. After all, a lot of people come over to my workshop specially for this.”

An Nuan remembered seeing the list of services provided by the workshop while she was browsing the internet about the workshop.

There were a lot of couples coming to the workshop to craft personalized jewelry for their special ones.

“You said that you are not skillful,” Master Zhuang continued. “But Miss An, this does not matter. I can help you if you are willing.”

An Nuan began to consider Master Zhuang’s idea.

Personalizing the inscription was something that she could do.

An Nuan stayed at the workshop for a while to discuss the wedding ring.

When she left, the sky was still gray and the rain was pouring non-stop.

Not wanting to be trapped in the bad weather, An Nuan decided to head home quickly.

Earlier, she told Auntie Yu that she didn’t have to prepare a meal for her and Lin Xiao Feng.

An Nuan was worried that Lin Xiao Feng would be hungry when he returned home.

He probably did not have a proper meal after leaving in the morning.

Auntie Yu was not around but it does not mean she could not cook a simple meal.

The rain had subsided by the time An Nuan reached home.

She went inside and prepared some ginger soup to dispel the cold from her body.

Then, An Nuan went to prepare a simple meal for herself and Lin Xiao Feng.

Fortunately, Auntie Yu had shopped for some ingredients that she could use.

An Nuan was in the middle of washing the vegetables when her phone rang.

Thinking that it might be a text from Lin Xiao Feng, An Nuan quickly wiped her hands and reached for her phone.

Her brow furrowed when she realized that it was not a text from her husband. Instead, the government issued a warning of an incoming storm and advised the citizens to stay at home.

An Nuan read the message anxiously before going online to look for news related to the storm.

A lot of news portals have already reported about the incoming storm.

An Nuan’s heart tightened as she was worrying about Lin Xiao Feng.

The last time they talked, Lin Xiao Feng mentioned that he was staying at the shelter along with the affected flood victims.

She wondered how he was doing.

Did he have enough to eat?

He didn’t even bring any change of clothes when he went out earlier. What if he’s cold?

Then, he might catch a fever.

An Nuan recalled that day when Lin Xiao Feng caught a fever not too long ago.

He was also too stubborn to eat his medicine.

If something happened to him, then, what should she do?

An Nuan was about to text Lin Xiao Feng and ask about his condition when she saw her mother’s number on her phone screen. Knowing that her mother had probably seen the news about the incoming storm, An Nuan quickly picked up the phone to talk to her mother.

“Mom?” An Nuan spoke as soon as the phone call was connected.

“Nuan Nuan, how are you?” Shi Xi asked. “I saw the news on the television. Are you well? Are you safe?”
