The Substitute Groom Chases His Wife - Chapter 307

Chapter 307: Grandfather Lin’s Anger
Lin Xiao Feng was discharged from the hospital.

After giving a few instructions to his assistant, Lin Xiao Feng took An Nuan to the airport and the couple headed back to Y City.

Lin Xiao Feng had a cold look on his face on their way back.

A while ago, his mother called and urged him to return.

It was said that his grandfather was furious when he saw the news on the internet.

His grandfather was not someone who would go online that much. Lin Xiao Feng quickly understood that someone had released the news to his grandfather.

When the mayor planned to promote him, there were quite a few people who were not happy.

Some of them decided to take advantage of his situation to smear his good name.

Before Lin Xiao Feng boarded the plane, he wrote a statement and let his assistant deal with everything. Lin Xiao Feng could already imagine what would happen when he reached home.

…

“Lin Xiao Feng, follow me to the study,” Grandfather Lin said the moment Lin Xiao Feng walked into the house. Without waiting for Lin Xiao Feng to answer, the old man turned around and headed upstairs.

Lin Xiao Feng turned to An Nuan and squeezed her hand. “Wait for me here. I’ll be back shortly.” He shot a look at his mother, motioning for her to look after An Nuan while he went upstairs.

“Lin Xiao Feng.” An Nuan held his hand tightly. Her instinct was telling her not to let him go upstairs, especially when she recalled Grandfather Lin’s dark expression.

“I’ll be fine. Just stay here and accompany my mom for a while. I’ll come back soon, alright?” Lin Xiao Feng flashed an assuring smile. Then, he turned around to follow his grandfather upstairs. Lin Xiao Feng did not want to make his grandfather angrier.

An Nuan watched as Lin Xiao Feng headed upstairs. Once she could no longer see his figure, An Nuan turned to her mother-in-law at the side. “Mom, will he be alright?”

Song Luan knew what would happen whenever her father-in-law had that look on his face. However, she could not tell An Nuan what was going to happen and scare her.

“He will be fine.” Song Luan patted An Nuan’s hand and forced a smile. “They’re just going to talk. That’s all.”

Of course, An Nuan was not going to believe her mother-in-law’s words.

Grandfather Lin’s expression was too scary.

An Nuan guessed that their talk would not be that pleasant.

She raised her head to look up and continued to worry. Her heart was beating fast and she could not calm down.

Lin Xiao Feng was supposed to head home and rest. But he returned to Y City just because his grandfather summoned him back.

“Madam.”

The helper’s voice made An Nuan and Song Luan turn around.

“Doctor Qi is here,” the helper reported. She stepped aside only to reveal a tall man standing behind her.

“Mrs. Lin, hello.” Qi Zheng greeted Song Luan with a smile. Then, he turned to An Nuan and nodded.

An Nuan frowned when she saw Qi Zheng walking in with a small bag by his side. She wondered why Qi Zheng was visiting the Lin family at this time.

…

Meanwhile, the atmosphere in the study was tense.

Lin Xiao Feng knelt on the ground while facing his grandfather in front of him.

Old Butler Xiao stood by his grandfather’s side with an anxious look on his face. He wanted to say something to help the old man calm down but Old Butler Xiao knew that it would only make his master angrier.

Old Butler Xiao could see the sweat forming on Lin Xiao Feng’s forehead.

The young man was trying his best to suppress the pain in his back while facing his grandfather.

After a few whips on his body, Lin Xiao Feng remained composed.

Old Butler Xiao admired Lin Xiao Feng’s endurance. At the same time, he pitied the young man.

Lin Chuan was angry when he saw the news.

However, instead of asking for an explanation, the old man decided to beat his grandson first.

Old Butler Xiao could only try to advise the old man to stop and listen to Lin Xiao Feng’s explanation first.

Fortunately, Lin Chuan stopped after a couple of whips.

Old Butler Xiao heaved a sigh.

He hoped that Lin Chuan would change his habit of punishing his grandson before listening to is explanation.

“Lin Xiao Feng, you clearly know that once you are married, I won’t tolerate you having any scandal with another woman,” Lin Chuan said. “I have agreed when you said you wanted to marry An Nuan. But what are you doing now? What is this about your relationship with your secretary.”

Lin Xiao Feng straightened up his posture. “Grandfather, it was a misunderstanding.”

“I already sent a few wedding invitations to my friends. They all know that you are married to An Nuan. But now, my friends called to ask me about your relationship with that secretary,” Lin Chuan continued. “How do you think I should answer them?”

Lin Xiao Feng pursed his lips as he let his grandfather scold him.

He thought that it was better to let his grandfather let out his anger first.

If he talks too much, it will only make his grandfather angrier.

“This is a sensitive period for you,” Lin Chuan said. “You are about to get a promotion. This is the time when a lot of people will be targeting you. You know that if you are not careful, all your hard work will be for nothing.”

“Grandfather, I know.” Lin Xiao Feng looked into his grandfather’s eyes. “This time, I was careless. I did not expect that someone would snap a photo of me with my former secretary and make up a story. I did not expect that this story would blow up as well.”

Lin Chuan scoffed angrily.

“I already posted a statement to clear up the misunderstanding,” Lin Xiao Feng said. “This matter will be resolved soon. I promise you that I won’t let this matter affect my promotion.”
