80 village women marry military officers; it was supposed to be a fake marriage.

Mr. Chang happily chimed in, "Alright, alright, let the child get out of the car and come inside. He must be exhausted after such a long drive."

Chang Jinxiang wrapped Lin Yue in his military overcoat and carried her off the car. He hadn't worn it since he was sent to the countryside, but his mother had specially given him this time because it was warm and could protect Lin Yue's legs.

Chang's father's secretary offered to help, but Chang Jinxiang refused. He didn't want anyone to hug his wife; he couldn't even let anyone touch her.

Seeing his serious expression, the secretary awkwardly withdrew her hand.

Seeing her son's reaction, Chang's mother couldn't stop smiling. She was really worried that Lin Yue would abandon her as her son and come back all alone, looking utterly dejected.

Now that the two of them have returned together, Chang Jinxiang still has a protective expression on his face, which puts Chang's parents at ease.

Especially Chang's mother, who felt that the day she could hold her grandson was not far away, was overjoyed, and felt as if she had wings on her feet, walking with great lightness.

She arranged a room for Lin Yue on the first floor, because Lin Yue had difficulty walking and was afraid of hurting herself going up and down the stairs.

Chang Jinxiang's room was on the second floor, and she had already prepared it as their wedding room, with bright red "double happiness" characters, bright red quilts and pillows, and even red pajamas and slippers.

Thinking of Lin Yue's injury, she knew that the wedding could only be held after she had fully recovered, but she was still eager to make preparations and make sure that Lin Yue would enter the Chang family in a grand and glorious manner.

She also specially prepared a wheelchair. "Xiaoyue, you can stay in this room for now. You can go up to the second floor when your leg is better. I asked the doctor, and he said that you can walk around a bit after the cast is removed, but you can't go up or down the stairs, in case you sprain your leg again."

The maid brought in a basin of water. "Madam, the hot water is ready."

Madam Chang smiled and said to Lin Yue, "Little Yue, let the maid wipe your face first, then have dinner and get some rest."

Lin Yue knew that the Chang family was a very influential family in Beijing, but she never thought they would have servants. Now she finally understood why Chang's mother was not good at cooking and housework.

She shook her head shyly, "No need, no need, I can do it myself."

Chang Jinxiang took the basin of water and towel from the maid and naturally wiped Lin Yue's face, which surprised everyone present.

Mother Chang couldn't help but laugh out loud, which made Lin Yue blush instantly. She shrank back shyly and said, "I can do it myself."

Chang Jinxiang gently patted her head. "We're at home now, so you don't need to be shy."

Mrs. Chang nudged Mr. Chang's shoulder and winked at him, "Let's go out first and have the servants bring the food over. You can eat in the room."

Only Chang Jinxiang and Lin Yue remained in the room. Lin Yue let out a long breath, feeling her face burning, and couldn't help but fan it with her hand.

Chang Jinxiang looked at her with affection, "Are you nervous? It's not like this is your first time meeting your parents." He didn't stop what he was doing and gently wiped her hands.

Only an ugly daughter-in-law is afraid to meet her in-laws. My wife is not ugly at all, and she has lived with my parents for so long that they have a better relationship than I do.

Lin Yue looked up at him embarrassedly, "Things are different now than before."

She used to be kind to Mr. and Mrs. Chang out of gratitude and a desire to repay them, without considering herself as a daughter-in-law, which made their relationship more natural.

Now I'm a little unsure how to get along with them. I always feel embarrassed, especially since Chang Jinxiang did these things for me in front of them. Other parents would be angry and would resent her.

Chang Jinxiang's care warmed her heart, but what parent would want to see their son serving others? This could easily lead to resentment.

Thinking of this, Lin Yue became nervous. The marriage was already mismatched in terms of social status, and if she was disliked, it would probably be difficult to maintain.

Seeing her increasingly furrowed brows and her nose turning red from nervousness, Chang Jinxiang couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her lips.

Since Lin Yue was injured, he has been reluctant to make any intimate moves for fear of hurting her leg, and he has been enduring a lot of hardship.

He couldn't resist any longer and wanted to kiss her, but his body was still stiff, afraid of touching her injured leg.

Lin Yue blinked her big eyes at the handsome face in front of her, still a little dazed, until Chang Jinxiang's movements deepened and his tongue touched her. A tingling sensation rose from the soles of her feet and spread throughout her body, making her tremble involuntarily.

"Well…"

"Cough cough cough..." The maid brought in the food and blushed when she saw this scene. She had watched Chang Jinxiang grow up in the Chang family for so many years and had never seen him act so recklessly.

Lin Yue only realized what was happening when she heard the cough, and her face turned even redder. She reached out to push him away.

Chang Jinxiang released her with a hint of unease, calmly taking the food from the maid's hands.

Chang Jinxiang was dignified in front of his comrades in the army, polite to his neighbors, and self-disciplined and respectful to his parents.

But when he was with her, he became more and more clingy, always wanting to be by her side, and speaking more and more gently, completely different from how he was in public.

When the driver returned to his unit, he told his comrades about the incident, and they all complained that he had misread it and thought it was just his imagination.

Company Commander Chang showered his wife with care and concern throughout the journey, feeding her water and food, and even carrying her to the toilet himself. Surely this wasn't just his imagination.

Whenever there was even the slightest bump on the road, Company Commander Chang would carefully check his wife's legs, afraid that she might bump into something or get hurt. If his wife was even slightly uncomfortable, he would frown nervously.

His comrades joked that he must have been driving for too long and was too tired to have this illusion.

Forget it, he won't argue anymore. Anyway, everyone will see it in the future, and then he'll slap them in the face.

After dinner, Chang Jinxiang didn't go back to his room; instead, he cuddled Lin Yue and slept on the first floor.

Before going to sleep, Lin Yue's soft voice rang out, "Can you promise me one thing?"

"Hmm?" Chang Jinxiang looked down at her.

Lin Yue's eyes were clear and earnest. "If you ever stop liking me, you must tell me directly, and I will leave."

Chang Jinxiang gently pressed her head against his chest and kissed the top of her head. "Silly girl, I promise you."

He knew in his heart that such a day would never come. He could feel his passionate love for Lin Yue, but Lin Yue was stubborn and would keep agonizing over it if he didn't agree.

As Lin Yue listened to his steady and powerful heartbeat and smelled his unique scent, her anxiety gradually subsided, and then drowsiness overcame her.

After an unknown amount of time, the person in his arms had fallen into a deep sleep, her rosy little face nestled in his embrace. Chang Jinxiang adjusted her legs to a comfortable position, kissed her lips again, and then fell asleep contentedly.
