After the two registered their marriage, the next step was naturally to hold the wedding.
Jing An'an dislikes overly lively scenes, and given their military status, extravagance is not advisable.
So in the end, they decided to have a simple lawn wedding, inviting only their closest family and friends to witness their sweet moment.
The wedding was quite simple to plan, but they were both very busy and only managed to find some free time in early June.
That day, the sky was so blue it looked as if it had been washed with water, and fluffy white clouds dotted it like cotton balls.
The sun wasn't too strong, but it shone warmly on the earth. A gentle breeze rustled the leaves and grass, and the air was filled with a delicate fragrance.
Jing An'an stood at one end of the red carpet, looking at Xiang Hengxi at the other end through the thin veil.
He was dressed in military uniform, with broad shoulders, and stood there straight, like a majestic mountain.
She walked towards him step by step in her high heels.
As the music played, I walked up to him, feeling inexplicably nervous.
In fact, they had already been a de facto couple and had even registered their marriage, but at this moment, there was a particularly sacred and solemn feeling. She had truly married him, without any reservations.
"Groom, do you take Miss Jing An'an to be your wife?" the officiant asked Xiang Hengxi.
"I do," Xiang Hengxi said firmly and resolutely.
"Bride, do you take Mr. Xiang Hengxi to be your husband?" The officiant looked at Jing An'an.
Jing An'an looked at Xiang Hengxi, paused for a few seconds, and then smiled faintly: "I do."
"Very well, then in the name of heaven and earth, sun and moon, and gentle breeze, I hereby announce the bride and groom..."
"Wait a minute." Xiang Hengxi interrupted the officiant's announcement of the ceremony's completion, glanced around at the audience, and said, "I have something else to say, and I ask everyone here today to witness it."
All eyes were fixed on him with curiosity, wondering what he had to say at this moment.
Jing An'an had no idea what he was up to, and she gripped the bouquet tightly in her hand.
Xiang Hengxi turned to look at her, his dark eyes filled with seriousness. He raised his left fist, making a military oath gesture, and solemnly said, "Today is a very special day for me. I want to swear with all my military medals that from now on, I, Xiang Hengxi, will be loyal to Jing An'an for the rest of my life, always taking care of you, respecting you, protecting you, and never abandoning you. In the army, I am your leader, and in life, you will always be my leader. I am willing to unconditionally accept all your dictatorship, give you all the happiness I can, and always keep a bright smile on your face."
After the resounding oath, there was a three-second silence, followed by thunderous applause.
Jing An'an's eyes reddened slightly as she looked at the serious expression on his face. She believed that this was not just a vow, but that he would definitely make it a reality.
"The groom's speech was very touching. Does the bride have anything special to say to the groom?" the officiant asked Jing An'an with a smile.
Jing An'an looked at him and said softly, "I believe you will treat me well."
The crowd below cheered, "Kiss! Kiss!"
Xiang Hengxi moved closer to Jing An'an, smiled into her eyes, raised his hand to lift her veil, and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
At that moment, cannons fired, flower petals fell and filled their surroundings, and pink balloons were released into the sky.
From this day forward, they are now husband and wife in the truest sense, and will spend their lives hand in hand, growing old together.
