Tang Yue raised an eyebrow. That's impressive speed. She hadn't been away from South Island for very long, and her grandparents' fighting spirit was truly remarkable.

Seeing that Tang Yue was in a good mood, Mr. Qi brought up another piece of good news. "That's not all. I heard that the 'Kemi,' the latest ship developed by the South Island, is about to undergo sea trials."

Tang Yue's lips curled up slightly; she was also very happy, not expecting them to be so supportive.

At this point, Mr. Qi sighed, "My child, there's something I need to tell you, but don't worry."

Tang Yue's eyes darkened. Ever since she came to Mr. Qi's office, she had sensed that Mr. Qi was not in a good mood today. Was he finally going to come? "Sir, please speak. No matter what it is, I can handle it."

Tang Yue didn't feel that anything had exceeded her expectations, so she wasn't flustered.

Seeing the girl's calm expression, Mr. Qi sighed again, "News came from Bianyue that your father and Battalion Commander Chang were killed by a bomb."

Tang Yue stood up abruptly, her eyes fixed on Mr. Qi. "Is it serious? Where are you injured?"

Even the usually composed young girl's voice trembled slightly. Mr. Qi opened his mouth but couldn't utter a word. Tang Yue stared at Mr. Qi for a long time before closing her eyes and beginning to divine.

After a long while, she opened her eyes. "Sir, when did this news arrive?"

"It's been four hours. That's just the time I know. I heard it's been 10 days since that day."

Tang Yue's gaze was cold. It seemed that her father and Chang Yin were still not valued; otherwise, it wouldn't have taken so long for Mr. Qi to receive the news. Or perhaps, the news only came because she had arrived?

"What's the message?" At this point, Tang Yue had lost even the most basic respect.

Mr. Qi paused for a moment and then understood what the little girl was angry about, but he could only smile wryly. With so many people on the battlefield, he couldn't really pay too much attention to a few fallen soldiers. Sigh, he'd better pay more attention to the little girl's family matters in the future.

Even though it was difficult to say, Mr. Qi still said, "The news says he sacrificed his life."

Tang Yue merely raised her eyelids slightly. "They're not dead."

A hint of heartache flashed across Mr. Qi's eyes; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he had walked through mountains of corpses and seas of blood. The child was still young, so it was understandable that she didn't believe it.

"Comrade Tang, the situation on the battlefield changes rapidly, there are..."

“Sir, I understand what you mean, but I believe my father and Battalion Commander Chang are not dead. Do you need any of the supplies? I’ll leave after delivering the supplies; I have other things to do.”

Tang Yue had already stood up when she finished speaking.
