A whirlwind marriage with a high-ranking official: Lights out, don't force me to take the initi

As the car drove out of the city, the road conditions gradually opened up.

Ye Wenxi ate dumplings while looking up at the scenery outside.

Outside the window are vast fields of farmland, some of which have already been harvested and are bare except for neat rows of wheat stubble.

The car occasionally passed by small villages, where farmhouses with red brick walls and gray tile roofs were scattered about, looking particularly lively and homey.

As we got closer to the military compound, the surrounding scenery began to change.

The scattered farmland gradually decreased, and was replaced by neat rows of poplar trees.

The dirt road by the roadside has been transformed into a smooth asphalt road, and the road surface is clean and tidy.

Occasionally, you can see sentries in military uniforms patrolling on bicycles, their posture upright.

"We're almost there, just ahead." Lu Weidong gestured for Ye Wenxi to look ahead.

From afar, Ye Wenxi could already see the sign for the "Military Management Zone".

A red flag was planted on the wall, and a sentry stood guard in the guard post at the entrance.

The military compound where Lu Weidong lives is a family compound exclusively for military-level units, and it is so large that it is like an independent small community.

Looking around, the houses are arranged according to the terrain, and their social classes are clearly distinguished.

High-ranking officials live in detached houses with small courtyards, red brick walls with gray tiles, and flowers and plants tended by each family in front of the doors.

Ordinary cadres live in neat apartment buildings, like Ye Wenxi and his colleagues.

Fortunately, I was assigned a first-floor apartment with a small courtyard that extends from the balcony. I can grow some things in the courtyard or store autumn vegetables there.

The entire compound houses over a thousand households, with more than two thousand people living there.

The compound has all the necessary facilities, including schools for children from kindergarten to middle school, so children don't have to leave the compound to attend school.

The health clinic is located in the community center, so minor ailments can be treated right at your doorstep.

The vegetables grown on the logistics farm are fresh and crisp, and are regularly distributed to each household.

Even the service center and guesthouse are fully equipped to meet the daily needs of the families.

At this moment, Zhang Yunxia was carrying two bags of things and walking towards Lu Weidong's house.

One bag contained the freshly steamed buns she had made, and the other bag contained some everyday items.

Zhang Yunxia was thoughtful and warm-hearted, thinking that since the new bride had just arrived, there must be some things that hadn't been prepared.

She had some at home, so she brought some over to save herself the trouble of buying them later.

Especially since Lu Weidong wasn't home, she searched around on her own but wasn't very familiar with the area.

She glanced at her watch, estimating that the two would arrive soon, and quickened her pace.

Before even reaching Lu Weidong's apartment building, they saw a group of people gathered in the open space in front of the building, looking around and glancing intently at Lu Weidong's home.

A quick glance was enough to recognize that there were a few young girls among them who were always crowding around Lu Weidong.

There were also a few who were notorious gossips in the compound, waiting to see the new bride make a fool of herself.

Anyway, there aren't many people in this group with good intentions.

"What are you all looking at?! Don't you have any manners gathering in front of someone's door?"

Zhang Yunxia slung the bag over her arm, put her hands on her hips, and shouted at the crowd.

"Stop staring, everyone. If there's nothing else, let's all disperse."

She is kind-hearted, warm-hearted, and a woman of her word. As the wife of a high-ranking leader, she is highly respected in the family compound.

She has a bit of a temper, and those who love to gossip or have ulterior motives are all a little afraid of her.

After Zhang Yunxia shouted, some of the girls who knew better immediately dispersed and left, but there were still a few girls who were thinking about Lu Weidong and refused to leave.

"Sister Zhang, please let me wait here." The girl pleaded softly, her eyes red and looking like she was about to cry from frustration.

Zhang Yunxia was both angry and amused; she was truly exasperated by these people.

Hearing that Lu Weidong had gotten married in a flash, everyone went crazy and insisted on coming over to cause trouble.

Too lazy to argue with those girls anymore, she angrily carried her things into the apartment building.

She was worried for the new bride. If the bride saw her husband being harassed by a group of girls, wouldn't she be furious?

Zhang Yunxia's worries were actually unnecessary. It's normal for her not to understand the girls' crazy behavior.

Lu Weidong's existence in this world is simply top-tier, almost like the "top celebrity" in people's minds at that time.

Naturally, he has no shortage of followers who are almost like "sasaeng fans".

But the scenario she feared never happened.

Ye Wenxi takes such things in stride, unlike girls of this era who would consider it a huge deal if a man were pursued.

She came from the future and was used to seeing women openly express their affection, so she didn't find it strange at all.

In addition, in her view, the fact that her husband is attractive only means that she is a better catch.

She would never take her anger out on those girls; as long as they didn't cross the line or cause trouble, she could simply pretend they didn't exist.

Lu Weidong's car drove into the military compound. The guards at the gate stood at attention and saluted. He raised his hand to return the salute, and the car drove in smoothly.

Instead of going directly to the family quarters, he turned around and went to the officers' dormitory where he used to live.

He still had many of his personal belongings there, so he thought he'd come and pick them up while he was there.

"Wait a moment, I'm going to get something."

Lu Weidong turned to Ye Wenxi in the passenger seat and spoke in a gentle tone.

After saying that, he pushed open the car door and strode into the dormitory building.

Ye Wenxi had been in the car for three hours and was feeling stiff all over. She wanted to get out and move around.

She wore a white dress with a gray coat and flesh-colored stockings. Her dark hair was tied in a high ponytail, revealing her fair and slender neck.

Her tall figure paired with black high heels exudes a clean and lively charm, making her a worthy subject for street photographers to take many pictures of her even on a modern commercial street.

Ye Wenxi pushed open the car door and got out, and shivered as soon as she stood still.

She thought it wouldn't be too cold since she was going into the family compound after getting off the bus, so she didn't wear a thick down coat.

A gust of autumn wind blew, bringing the dry, cool air of the camp to her collar, making her shiver involuntarily.

It was afternoon, and the officers and soldiers had finished their morning training, had lunch, and returned to their dormitories for a midday rest.

"Look! Holy crap! Who's that?"

The soldier next to him turned around and saw Ye Wenxi walking around the car.

The autumn sun shone on her, making her skin fair with a pinkish tinge. She had a slender figure and a pure, clean aura, like a mountain spring.

Standing there like a female celebrity in a magazine, she became the most eye-catching sight downstairs in the dormitory building.

"Wow, she's even prettier than the female lead in a movie!" The soldier stared, his eyes wide, and unconsciously raised his voice.

The passing officers and soldiers stopped one after another, glancing sideways at Ye Wenxi and whispering among themselves.

Ye Wenxi quickly noticed that many eyes were on her, so she nodded and smiled politely.

"Oh my god, you look even better when you smile!"

"Are you a family member? I've never seen you before. What are you doing downstairs at the dormitory?"

"Could he be a relative of a leader? He doesn't look like someone from the compound."

Wang Hao rushed back to his dormitory like a firecracker.

When I passed by Lu Weidong's room, I found the door open and saw him packing his things.

"Hey? Battalion Commander, you're back?"

"Hurry, hurry, stop tidying up! Come downstairs quickly, or you won't be able to see it anymore."

Wang Hao was a company commander under Lu Weidong. The two had a good relationship in private, and Wang Hao was one of the few people who dared to joke with Lu Weidong.

He knew that Lu Weidong was single. Although he could charm half the women in the compound, Lu Weidong had high standards and didn't find anyone he liked.

Thinking it over, she called him to come and see, since the woman was so outstanding, maybe she could catch the eye of his battalion commander.

"What's all the fuss about? Can't you see I'm busy?" Lu Weidong's brows furrowed.

Wang Hao was taken aback by his serious expression: "What a pity, you can only blame yourself for not having the chance to see it."

Lu Weidong was packing things into his backpack.

I could hear a lot of people running around outside, shouting in low voices as they ran.

"There's a stunningly beautiful woman downstairs! Come and see!"

Lu Weidong turned around abruptly, realizing something!
