Chapter 96: Pleading for a marriage license, a woman begs for mercy

She screamed in surprise and subconsciously hugged Jiang Xingyan's neck.

Many soldiers outside the field saw this and no longer had any interest in training. They just applauded and cheered.

Chu Sangning was embarrassed. She buried her little head in Jiang Xingyan's arms. Her soft little hands patted the man's shoulders. Her face turned red with embarrassment. "Jiang Xingyan, put me down."

Jiang Xingyan didn't say anything. Chu Sangning raised her head and could only see the man's handsome and stern jaw tightly set, with his lips pursed into a cold and hard straight line.

Chu Sangning was stunned and realized that something was wrong. He struggled in Jiang Xingyan's arms, "Jiang, Jiang Xingyan, I was just joking. Don't take it seriously. Jiang Xingyan..."

No matter what Chu Sangning said, Jiang Xingyan said nothing. He carried the girl to the big tree where they were last night and gently put the girl down.

Chu Sangning was at a loss, "Jiang Xingyan, I was wrong, I was just joking, I won't say it again, okay."

Chu Sangning, who thought she had committed a serious crime, put herself in Jiang Xingyan's shoes and thought that if he said these things to her face, she would probably get angry too.

She knew that jealous men were the most terrifying, especially the kind that were hard to appease.

Chu Sangning sighed, stood on tiptoe and kissed him. Jiang Xingyan's lips felt cold and soft like jelly.

She didn't have many skills, she could only grab Jiang Xingyan's clothes and lick them back and forth like a kitten. Her hands involuntarily rested on Jiang Xingyan's broad shoulders, trying hard to calm him down.

Jiang Xingyan's gaze became more and more serious. He placed his big hand on the back of the girl's head, with a hint of smile in his eyes. He was easy to coax, and he had to compromise as long as the girl said some soft words.

Smelling the warm and clean breath of the little girl, like a little sun, made Jiang Xingyan want to immerse himself in it.

When Chu Sangning was tired of kissing, Jiang Xingyan counterattacked, gently yet roughly absorbing every breath from Chu Sangning's lips and tongue.

After a very long time, so long that Chu Sangning's mind was in a daze, Jiang Xingyan released the restraints on the little girl's waist, put his head on Chu Sangning's shoulder, and panted softly.

"Sang Ning, let's get the marriage certificate."

Chu Sangning didn't say anything, so Jiang Xingyan tilted his head and kissed the little girl on the cheek again and again, as if he would keep kissing her unless Chu Sangning agreed.

"I've been promoted to battalion commander now, and the army will give me a better house, Sang Ning, you can live with me in the army, Sang Ning——"

Jiang Xingyan pestered her for a long time before Chu Sangning finally gave in. She rolled her eyes mischievously and said, "Well, as long as you convince my father, I will agree to marry you."

Well, Chu Sangning suddenly remembered that both of his fathers did not agree, so Jiang Xingyan’s plan might fail.

and.......

The home visit leave given to her by the captain was not long, and she would have to go back in a day or two.

"Sang Ning, I can't bear to leave you."

Jiang Xingyan held the little girl in his arms, unwilling to let go. He felt that time passed so quickly, and in the blink of an eye the little girl was going back.

They walked back slowly hand in hand. When they reached the downstairs of their home, they let go of each other's arms tactfully and walked side by side towards the house. Before they could go up, a woman rushed out from the stairs.

With a thud, he knelt down at Chu Sangning's feet, crying and shouting, "Please let my Lao Guo go."

"I beg you, I beg you."

Chu Sangning looked at the woman on the ground in surprise. Wasn't this Guo Aiguo's first wife from his hometown? She had aged a lot in just a few days, and her hair on her temples had turned gray.

"Get up first, and let's talk it over." Chu Sangning dodged to the side. What was the point of her kneeling here? If someone didn't know, they would think she was bullying her.

Besides, she is so much older than me. If she really accepted this kneeling ceremony, she would surely shorten her life.

The woman burst into tears, wiped her tears and sat on the ground, hugged Chu Sangning's legs, and cried: "Please be magnanimous and let my old Guo go, he was just anxious for a moment."

"Please, please."

Chu Sangning tried hard to help the woman up, but the woman ignored him and cried and asked Chu Sangning to let her man go. However, this was the army's business and Chu Sangning could not interfere.

I explained it to her twice in a gentle voice. The woman sobbed and said, "You are the niece of the head of the group, the niece of my boss, Lao Guo. You must be effective."

"No, do you know what he did wrong?"

Chu Sangning suddenly asked, and the woman's eyes were red. "Isn't it because he beat people? We beat people in our hometown. My old Guo was just confused for a moment, and I didn't say anything. Why are you meddling in other people's business?"

The women were a little confused. There were many men who beat their wives over there, and some even beat them to death, but no one had meddled in other people's business and arrested the men. So why were they meddling in such trivial matters in the army?

Nothing can happen to Old Guo in their family. He is the only pillar of the family. They rely on him to send allowance home to support the men, women and children in the family.

As for Chu Sangning's words, the woman didn't take it to heart. After her husband Lao Guo was hospitalized, she only went to see him twice. Lao Guo thought that she was not dressed well and didn't let her go to the hospital to embarrass herself.

"What do you mean by meddling? Is there anything wrong with us helping you?" Chu Sangning didn't understand the mind of the woman in front of her. Guo Aiguo was about to beat her to death, so was this just a small matter?

The woman hid her eyes and dared not look directly at Chu Sangning. She hesitated for a long time: "I...I, I didn't expect it. My old Guo usually fights hard. You can't arrest him."

Seeing the woman on the ground about to cry again, Chu Sangning said, "Even if he has a woman outside, you don't care, right?"

The woman stopped crying instantly. She opened her mouth in shock and looked at Chu Sangning with a look of disbelief.

"The army arrested him not only because of domestic violence, but also because of his behavior problems."

After Chu Sangning finished speaking, he broke free from the woman's hand and took two steps back. He wanted to continue speaking when he suddenly noticed the little girl at the stairs, looking at him calmly.

Her heart softened, and she thought of the woman's situation in her hometown, and whispered: "Are you really willing to take care of your paralyzed parents-in-law for the rest of your life, and endure countless domestic violence?"

"Even if you don't consider yourself, you should think about your daughter. She is still so young. Aren't you afraid that one day your man will hit your daughter with his fist?"

The woman lying on the ground didn't say anything, but Chu Sangning knew she had heard him.

Domestic violence can only happen once or countless times. A woman's tolerance and retreat will only earn her the fists of the abuser. For the sake of her children and herself, Chu Sangning can only persuade her so far.

When they were about to leave, the woman suddenly asked, "How do I know that what you said is true?"
