On his first night as a substitute bride accompanying the army, the abstinent tycoon dropped his pre

Chapter 3 We are a legally married couple, Comrade Huo Jingyuan
"Desolate? Not really," Huo Jingyuan replied.

In the early years, the area around the Northwest Military Region was indeed desolate, with sandstorms everywhere. In the last two years, the environment has changed dramatically. Family housing has been built, and jujube trees have been planted around it to prevent sandstorms!

The Jiang family's daughter was sent to accompany the army to the Northwest.

It is because Huo Jingyuan, as an officer of the Northwest Military Region, needs to set an example for the entire army, so that more family members will be willing to follow the army to the Northwest.

Huo Jingyuan's gaze fell on the jubilant Miss Jiang. He hesitated for a moment and said, "In the Northwest Family Compound, things might not be as easy as in Beijing. You'll have to do most things yourself, which will be very tiring."

"It doesn't matter." Wen Ci shrugged.

Even the hardest times are not as hard as the end times.

It's the 1980s now; at most, it's just about self-reliance.

Huo Jingyuan lowered his eyelids slightly. He had previously heard from his elders that the Jiang family girl was a delicate and frail young lady, but today's meeting was completely different from what he had imagined.

"Although we've already registered our marriage, we can still hold the wedding banquet at a state-run restaurant."

Wen Ci asked, "Can we not do it?"

In the 1980s, the price of a table at a state-run restaurant was quite high. A wedding for a child of a high-ranking official in a compound typically involved eight tables, not including the cost of the food at each table.

Wen Ciguang felt a pang of heartache just thinking about the money.

Besides, as a daughter who was married in place of another, there was no need for her to do so!

"Why?" Huo Jingyuan asked, puzzled.

His return to Beijing this time was not only to bring Jiang's daughter with him to the Northwest with the army.

They also need to hold a wedding ceremony to announce it to the entire compound.

Huo Jingyuan lived with his maternal grandparents in a compound in Beijing when he was a child. His parents worked in other classified units and coincidentally shared the same surname, Huo.

Therefore, outsiders believed that Huo Jingyuan was the grandson of the Huo family in Beijing.

Since Huo Jingyuan's maternal grandfather passed away, many people in the compound thought that the Huo family had declined, but in reality, Huo Jingyuan's paternal grandfather's side was even more powerful and influential.

Wen Ci blinked and replied in a soft voice, "Three days might be too rushed for a wedding. I don't want it to be so rushed, so we can hold it back in the Northwest."

For some reason, Wen Ci always felt uncomfortable in the capital, as if the original owner of the body was resisting her, and she felt even more uncomfortable at the Jiang family.

Upon hearing this, Huo Jingyuan nodded solemnly. He admitted that he hadn't thought things through properly regarding the wedding, as he had only been in Beijing for three days.

Including today, there are only two days left.

Even if we can book a state-run restaurant tomorrow, it will still be a bit rushed.

Huo Jingyuan looked at Wen Ci. The woman in front of him would accompany him for the rest of his life, and he did not want to give her a hasty wedding.

He had heard the political commissar in the military region say that marriage is a major event in one's life.

We must not be too hasty.

"Then I listen to you."

Wen Ci smiled, his gaze fixed on Huo Jingyuan's casual suit jacket, over which was a white shirt, revealing his overly muscular chest.

want to touch!

I want to play!

Huo Jingyuan sat upright beside Wen Ci, feeling the intense gaze on her. He glanced at her, his eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation.

He couldn't help but look at Wen Ci, and they made eye contact briefly for a few seconds.

Huo Jingyuan couldn't stand Wen Ci's gaze any longer. He turned his face away, and the tips of his ears turned slightly red, though it wasn't noticeable unless you looked closely.

He didn't have many opportunities to interact with girls growing up.

When I was in the Northwest Military Region, I would only see one or two female nurses when I was wounded, but they were not as bold as Jiang's daughter and would usually avoid me when they saw me.

Wen Ci chuckled softly when she saw the tips of his ears turn red.

He's still a pure-hearted soldier.

Huo Jingyuan has a typical broad back, high waist, and mantis legs.

You can imagine his biceps just by looking at his physique.

Wen Ci likes men with this kind of physique the most.

In her past life, she always wanted to date a man with such a perfect physique in college, but she never expected that the apocalypse would come and zombies would attack.

After becoming the God of War, Wen Ci no longer had the time to date.

I'm usually satisfied just to feast my eyes.

But now... hehe.

She is Huo Jingyuan's wife in name only.

Jiang Chen returned from the department store with several outfits, reluctantly tossing the brand-new clothes onto the sofa, and began, "Wen..."

He had barely opened his mouth when he met Huo Jingyuan's gaze, and immediately changed his tune, smiling faintly: "Little sister Jiang Ci, do you think these clothes fit?"

Before sending Wen Ci's household registration, the Jiang family changed her surname back to her original one.

Jiang Ci.

Huo Jingyuan gently rubbed his calloused fingertips together.

He silently repeated the name of the woman beside him in his mind.

Suddenly, a "crash" sound came from upstairs, as shards of a vase fell onto the stairs, accompanied by a woman's delicate scream.

Jiang Chen immediately panicked. Ignoring whether Huo Jingyuan was there or not, he went straight up the stairs. Seeing his sister fall to the ground, her expression one of shock and dismay, he comforted her:

"Are you okay, sister?"

Jiang Chen's concern wasn't particularly loud, but it wasn't insignificant either.

Huo Jingyuan frowned slightly after hearing the sound. As far as he knew, the Jiang family only had one daughter. So who was the person upstairs who smashed the vase?
Just as he was puzzled, Wen Ci touched his hand.

Huo Jingyuan hurriedly withdrew his hand, staring at Wen Ci in shock, his heart skipping a beat and his Adam's apple bobbing.

Wen Ci said, "Let's go."

She disliked the atmosphere of the Jiang family.

"Where...where to go?"

Wen Ci: "Go home."

As she spoke, Wen Ci took the initiative to lean on Huo Jingyuan's arm, her tone calm and her words firm: "We are a legally married couple, Comrade Huo Jingyuan."

The word "comrade" made Huo Jingyuan's ears burn.

He was not used to Wen Ci's boldness.

But I also felt a secret sense of satisfaction.

Just as Su Guilan was about to speak to persuade him to stay, she heard a louder commotion upstairs. She glanced at Wen Ci with a complicated expression, then composed herself.

“Aci is right. You two are already husband and wife, you should experience life as a couple. I'll have her brother bring Aci's luggage over tomorrow.”

Wen Ciqiang pulled Huo Jingyuan to his feet: "Let's go, Comrade Huo."

Even through his clothes, Huo Jingyuan could feel her hand touching him intentionally or unintentionally, and he nervously clenched his fists, feeling at a loss.

After leaving the Jiang family, Wen Ci released Huo Jingyuan's arm.

She knew Huo Jingyuan was uncomfortable.

In this day and age, both men and women are extremely cautious.

In particular, single men and women don't have much contact in private.

The couple maintained a distance from each other.

But Wen Ci doesn't think that way. She's a modern person who's been alone for over twenty years and has seen too much cruelty in the apocalypse, so she longs for love.

I just met Huo Jingyuan.

But there's an old saying that's true.

There is ample time!

She was about to marry and move to the Northwest to join the army, so how could she not get to know her husband better while she was in Beijing?

After all, a harmonious sex life is also very important.

cough cough.

Thinking of this, Wen Ci's gaze involuntarily fell on Huo Jingyuan.

He looked at it carefully from head to toe.

With such a perfect physique and extensive military training, Huo Jingyuan's physical strength must be quite good, no matter how bad it may seem.

"How's your stamina?" Wen Ci asked.
