The Substitute Groom Chases His Wife - Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Let Fate Decide

An Nuan looked at Tian Xin strangely. Her sister-in-law had a serious look on her face, making her wonder what she was about to tell. After a brief contemplation, An Nuan finally nodded.

The two girls headed upstairs together and entered An Nuan’s room.

Tian Xin sat on the sofa while keeping her eyes on An Nuan.

“Sister-in-law, what do you want to talk to me about?” An Nuan spoke first.

Tian Xin observed An Nuan for a while before flashing an easygoing smile. “It’s about your relationship with Lin Xiao Feng.”

An Nuan raised her brows as she let her sister-in-law continue.

“Nuan Nuan, I hope you are not going to think of me as a busybody,” Tian Xin said. “It’s just that… I am a bit curious about a few things.”

“What are you curious about?” An Nuan asked. “Sister-in-law, you can speak freely,” She could see that her sister-in-law was a bit hesitant and wondered if it was difficult to talk about.

“You and Lin Xiao Feng have now registered your marriage,” Tian Xin started. “Have you thought about what you are planning to do next? This marriage… Are you really serious?”

“Sister-in-law, what do you mean?” An Nuan frowned. “I know that this marriage is too sudden. But I don’t consider it as a plaything.”

“It’s good that you have that thought.” Tian Xin’s expression softened. “Then, are you going to stay with Lin Xiao Feng as husband and wife? What I mean is as a real husband and wife.”

An Nuan paused. She suddenly thought of her conversation with Lin Xiao Feng’s mother the last time she went over to see his elders.

Instead of having a cooperative marriage, Mrs. Lin asked An Nuan to think about her relationship with Lin Xiao Feng. She wanted to know if she would give Lin Xiao Feng a chance.

After she returned home, An Nuan had been thinking about Mrs. Lin’s question for a long time.

She still could not imagine herself and Lin Xiao Feng together.

They have known each other for a while and remained neighbors and friends.

Whether it was Lin Xiao Feng or herself, An Nuan did not think that they would be able to change their feelings for each other. It would be hard to be interested in each other romantically.

An Nuan felt that if they were interested in each other as man and woman, it would have happened years ago.

Right now, they are still good friends.

Lin Xiao Feng was a good person and An Nuan thought that being with him was quite comfortable.

Although they might not have romantic feelings for each other, An Nuan was sure they could live peacefully for several years.

As long as they have mutual respect for each other, they can remain husband and wife.

“Sister-in-law.” An Nuan suddenly did not know what she should say. “Lin Xiao Feng and I have agreed to have a cooperative marriage relationship. As for being a real husband and wife…” She suddenly felt shy when she talked about this matter with her sister-in-law. “I haven’t thought much about this matter.”

Tian Xin heaved a sigh, slightly disappointed in An Nuan’s answer.

Lin Xiao Feng had met An Nuan’s elders before he married An Nuan. He convinced them to let An Nuan change the groom and go through with the wedding.

During that time, Lin Xiao Feng gave the elders his promise to care for and protect An Nuan. He also told them that he liked An Nuan.

Lin Xiao Feng’s promise and sincerity moved the elders’ hearts.

However, the man also made everyone keep some feelings from An Nuan.

Although everyone knew about Lin Xiao Feng’s feelings for An Nuan, they did not say a word to An Nuan about it.

They followed Lin Xiao Feng’s suggestion to let An Nuan mend her broken heart first.

Lin Xiao Feng also said that he will work hard to pursue An Nuan.

Tian Xin admired Lin Xiao Feng’s courage. At the same time, she thought that the man was quite pitiful. Each time she saw An Nuan and Lin Xiao Feng together, Tian Xin felt that she should give Lin Xiao Feng a helping hand.

This time, Tian Xin wanted to speak to her sister-in-law, wanting to let An Nuan open her eyes and mind to any possibilities that could happen between her and Lin Xiao Feng.

“Do you think it’s impossible?” Tian Xin asked.

“I just see him as a good friend,” An Nuan answered.

Tian Xin heaved a sigh as she kept her eyes on An Nuan. “Nuan Nuan, feelings and relationships are built slowly over a long time,” Tian Xin continued. “Have you considered that your feelings for him might grow the more you spend time with him?”

“This…” An Nuan could not answer. “I didn’t think that it would happen.”

An Nuan pondered over her relationship with Lin Xiao Feng again and wondered if their feelings would grow.

Her mind was in a mess.

She did not know what she should think.

Tian Xin flashed an apologetic smile. “Nuan Nuan, I’m sorry. I was not trying to confuse you with your relationship with Lin Xiao Feng. I am just worried about you both, especially now you are bound together as husband and wife.”

An Nuan shook her head. “Sister-in-law, I understand.”

She could understand her sister-in-law’s concern. Her relationship with her sister-in-law has always been good. An Nuan knew that Tian Xin really cared and concerned about her.

“Sister-in-law, at this time, I don’t have any intention of falling in love or being in a romantic relationship with anyone. I don’t know what will happen between me and Lin Xiao Feng in the future,” An Nuan said. “I think it’s better to let nature take its course. If something were to happen between us, then, I will take time and consider it.”

At this moment, they both still remained as husband and wife in a cooperative relationship.

In the future, they might part or they might continue to stay together. She did not know what will happen.

An Nuan decided that it was best to let fate decide.
