"Are we getting married now?" Ma Xiao'e asked in confusion.
Seeing this, Jiang Ling smiled and reached out to hold her hand: "Yes, we are husband and wife now, and you will be my wife from now on."
"That night..." she said subconsciously.
Jiang Ling knew what she was still worried about, so he said, "I'll sleep over in the office tonight, and you can sleep over here."
He also knew that it was normal for Ma Xiao'e to not adapt to the change in her status. Although the two of them had obtained a marriage certificate, in her opinion, they were not considered married without a wedding.
He has been waiting for so many years, so one month won't make any difference.
When Ma Xiao'e heard Jiang Ling's words, she was slightly stunned and couldn't help but lower her head.
In fact, she wanted to say that Jiang Ling misunderstood her meaning. She was not that conservative. Since the two of them had already obtained the marriage certificate, they were legally husband and wife, and there was nothing wrong with living together.
But Jiang Ling said this because he cared about her thoughts. This man was always so thoughtful and considerate, how could she not be moved?
"I...that's not what I meant. I wanted to say that if you stay here tonight, I'll pack your things for you." Ma Xiao'e said a little embarrassedly.
Jiang Ling was obviously stunned when he heard her words, but seeing that Ma Xiao'e was so proactive, he certainly couldn't refuse.
After all, it's not easy to see this girl take the initiative for once in all these years.
He smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come back and stay at night."
Who would want to live in a cold single dormitory when you can sleep with your wife in your arms?
Ma Xiao'e's cheeks turned red and she said "hmm" in a soft voice.
At night, Ma Xiao'e made the bed, prepared towels and toothbrushes for Jiang Ling to wash and brush his teeth, and also cooked dinner and put it in the pot.
It was already past nine o'clock in the evening when Jiang Ling returned home after leading his troops in training. Ma Xiao'e heard a knock on the door, so she walked to the door and opened it.
Jiang Ling came back directly after training without changing clothes. He was wearing a vest, which was soaked with sweat and stuck tightly to his body.
He has a great body, a perfect physique from years of exercise, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, abdominal muscles and pectoral muscles. The masculine hormones in his body make one's heart beat faster.
It was the first time that Ma Xiao'e saw Jiang Ling like this. After a moment of surprise, she let him in.
She had just taken a shower and was now wearing a nightgown.
"You're back."
Jiang Ling responded, walked in, took a shower, and changed into clean clothes.
Ma Xiao'e went to the kitchen to heat up the meal for him. After eating, Ma Xiao'e was about to clean up but Jiang Ling held her hand and said, "I'll clean it up."
Seeing this, Ma Xiao'e ignored him. After walking into the room, she pulled back the quilt and lay down on the bed.
It’s just September now, but the unit is close to the mountains, so it’s still a bit cold at night and we have to cover ourselves with a thinner blanket.
After Jiang Ling finished cleaning up, he walked into the room and saw Ma Xiao'e lying on the bed.
He walked over, pulled back the quilt and crawled in.
He could feel Ma Xiao'e's nervousness, so he reached out and held her in his arms.
"Xiao E, don't be afraid. If you don't agree, I won't do anything to you." Jiang Ling said softly.
His voice was full of tenderness, which also eased Ma Xiao'e's nervousness a little.
"Yeah." Ma Xiao'e nodded slightly.
She was held in Jiang Ling's arms, her whole body curled up in his arms, feeling the warmth coming from him.
Ma Xiao'e also believed in Jiang Ling's character. Since he said so, he would definitely do it.
In fact, she had already prepared herself mentally, but she couldn't help feeling a little nervous. After all, it was her first time and she was not ready yet.
"Go to sleep." Jiang Ling lowered his head and gently kissed Ma Xiaoe on the head.
Ma Xiao'e felt completely safe in his arms. She closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly in his arms.
Seeing that she was tired, Jiang Ling did not move and kept holding her. He fell asleep without knowing when.
The next day, Ma Xiao'e opened her eyes early in the morning and found that Jiang Ling had gone out at some point.
His biological clock is six o'clock every morning. After getting up, washing up, he starts training.
This has been going on for years and Jiang Ling has developed a habit of it.
In the morning, Ma Xiao'e was awakened by the sound of training outside.
After she got up, she walked out the door and looked in the direction of the training ground. She saw Jiang Ling in military uniform, leading others in running exercises on the training ground.
It was the first time that Ma Xiao'e saw him look so serious, but Jiang Ling had a cold and resolute charm that made people unable to look away for a while.
Thinking of what happened last night, Ma Xiao'e showed a shy and happy smile on her face.
This kind of life is plain and beautiful to her. In fact, even if she lives here with Jiang Ling for the rest of her life, it would feel pretty good.
Su Ying was also surprised to learn that Ma Xiao'e followed Jiang Ling to the army.
However, this was also the first time that Ma Xiao'e took the initiative to pursue her own happiness, and Su Ying was happy for them.
A month is a long time, but it is also a short time.
Seeing that the wedding date was approaching, Jiang Ling asked for leave from the army in advance. When he took Ma Xiao'e back to Jing City, he also went to Qing City to pick up Ma Xiao'e's parents.
In the past, when a woman got married, her family would not attend.
But this time, Jiang Ling also wanted Ma Xiao'e's parents to witness his daughter's happiness, so he decided to take them to Beijing.
In the future, if her parents are willing, Jiang Ling would of course also like to bring them over to live with Ma Xiao'e.
This was also the first time for Ma Xiao'e's parents to visit Beijing. Jiang Ling had already arranged a guesthouse for them. On the wedding day, he would just send a car to pick them up and take them to the state-owned hotel.
Jiang Ling got married, so Jiang Yue naturally came back.
Including the people from the army, the favors of Jiang Ling's parents, and Mr. Jiang's connections in the army, many of the people who came to the wedding were officers in uniform, and even the commander of the military region came.
Su Ying looked at Ma Xiao'e in her wedding dress and couldn't help but sigh, "You are so beautiful, Sister Xiao'e. You are the most beautiful bride today."
Ma Xiao'e was embarrassed by Su Ying's praise, "Yingying, please stop teasing me. I'm almost dying of nervousness now."
After all, this was her military marriage, and there were many military personnel and leaders outside. If something went wrong for her, it would be too embarrassing.
Seeing this, Su Ying comforted her, "Just trust me, you are absolutely the most beautiful in this outfit today. Big brother will definitely help you later. There is no need to be nervous. Just be a good bride."
