Taking a pulse requires a quiet environment and careful observation of the pulse. In just that brief moment, Qiao Xinruo was not sure, especially since the pulse of pregnancy is a complex pulse that requires careful observation.
So she decided to experience it again—
However, Su Yueya was faking her dizziness; she wasn't really dizzy!
She knew her heart was beating fast, and when Qiao Xinruo's fingertips touched her again, didn't that touch reveal that her heart was beating fast?
Su Yueya immediately decided to speed up the process of "waking up".
"Your Majesty!" Su Yueya woke up and took the opportunity to pull her wrist away and grab Qiao Xinruo's arm, preventing Qiao Xinruo from continuing to feel her pulse.
"Xinruo? Xinruo, why are you here? Have you heard? Zhengjun, Zhengjun is dead!" Su Yueya immediately burst into tears. She secretly pinched herself hard with her other hand to force out the tears.
Ouch!
Qiao Xinruo: "..."
So close!
She was so close to finding out if her sister was pregnant.
However... she was still not sure, so Qiao Xinruo decided not to mention it for the time being. After all, her brother-in-law's sacrifice had already had a huge emotional impact on her sister. If she got pregnant again, what if her sister couldn't handle it and her emotions became even more unstable?
After all, Su Yueya had fainted and been hospitalized multiple times in the past due to emotional instability.
Qiao Xinruo dared not gamble with her sister's health.
"Sister, I know, I know. Don't worry, let's ask slowly and talk slowly. Calm down first!" Qiao Xinru reminded her.
Su Yueya turned to look at Wu Hongyi, her eyes red.
"Commander Wu, did Zhengjun really sacrifice himself?" Su Yueya asked the same question repeatedly, as if she couldn't believe it.
"Really?!"
Wu Hongyi: "..."
This is too cruel.
But silence is also a form of response.
If Lu Zhengjun were truly alright, Wu Hongyi could have simply denied it, but since he didn't deny it, it was tantamount to admitting it.
"Waaah..." Su Yueya sobbed, gasping for breath, and asked intermittently, "Then, then where is his, Zhengjun's, body?"
"If he's alive, I want to see him; if he's dead, I want to see his body. If I can't see a body, I don't believe it. I don't believe that the Emperor is dead!"
"I don't believe it, sob sob..." Su Yueya cried in Qiao Xinruo's arms.
"Sister." Qiao Xinruo was heartbroken, her heart was clenched in pain. She kept patting Su Yueya's back to soothe her, and kept saying, "Sister, don't be too sad. Be strong. We're here for you, we're here for you!"
"Waaah... I don't believe it, it can't be! Zhengjun said he would come back safely. It's only been a few days, he's only been on a mission for a few days, how could he... how could he be dead? I don't believe it!"
"Brigade Commander Wu, where is the body?" Su Yueya cried for a while, wiped away her tears, and put on a strong appearance. "I want to see him, I want to see my husband!"
Wu Hongyi: "..."
He couldn't bear to say it aloud.
Daqiang broke down at this point, crying and shouting, "Sister-in-law, the eldest brother was killed in the explosion. His body is still on its way back, but... please don't look at it."
The implication is that he didn't die a pretty death.
To be killed in an explosion is a truly horrific event; no family member could bear to witness such a scene.
"What?!" Su Yueya almost fainted again, exclaiming in disbelief, "He... he died a terrible death? He was blown up?"
It was blown to pieces!
"Waaah..." The crying became increasingly out of control.
Just then, Qiao Shouyan and Qiao Gaoyang also learned of Lu Zhengjun's death and ran to Wu Hongyi to confirm it in disbelief, only to witness this scene.
"What? The Emperor is really dead?" Qiao Shouyan couldn't believe it.
When he first heard about it, he felt it must be a rumor. To confirm it, he specifically asked his second brother to come to Wu Hongyi's place to verify it.
"Brigade Commander Wu, is the news true?" Qiao Shouyan asked.
Wu Hongyi nodded.
Qiao Shouyan: "..."
He's really dead!
So, what about the crescent moon?
Qiao Shouyan couldn't even imagine how much pain Su Yueya was in right now. After all, as family, they knew better than anyone how much their younger sister was obsessed with love.
Even he felt this was a huge blow, let alone Su Yueya, his bedmate.
"Yueya!" Qiao Shouyan stepped forward and hugged Su Yueya. "Yueya, be strong!"
"Big brother!" Su Yueya immediately hugged her big brother again and continued to cry.
There was nothing she could do; her younger sister was just too clever. She stayed hidden in her arms the whole time, and Su Yueya was terrified that Qiao Xinruo would notice something was wrong.
The older brother isn't stupid, but compared to his smarter younger sister, he's a better choice!
She's still just acting while clinging to her older brother!
While hiding, Su Yueya gave Qiao Gaoyang meaningful glances.
The safest person here is Qiao Gaoyang!
"Yueya, don't be sad, we're here for you. We'll all be with you." Qiao Gaoyang quickly stepped in, comforting her while subtly "rescuing" Su Yueya from his arms.
"The dead cannot be brought back to life, you must be strong! It would be painful for the Emperor in heaven to see you like this."
“Yes, sister, you have to be strong. You… still have to take care of your husband’s funeral arrangements!” Qiao Xinruo said.
She knew that the phrase "afterlife" would definitely upset Su Yueya, but at the same time, it was also a source of strength for Su Yueya to stay focused.
Since the truth of her death cannot be changed, at least Lu Zhengjun should be allowed to leave in peace.
As his wife, she had to take care of the funeral arrangements.
And what about the Lu family... I wonder what will happen when Lu Anguo and Bai Xiuhui find out about this news.
"Zhengjun, Zhengjun..." Su Yueya hid in Qiao Gaoyang's arms, thinking through all the bad things in her life, which was enough to keep her crying until now.
"Alright, alright..." Qiao Gaoyang kept coaxing Su Yueya. He looked at his family and then at Wu Hongyi. "Brigadier Wu, I'm really sorry to have troubled you. If Zhengjun's body is brought back, please let us know. We'll take Yueya back now."
Given the current situation, continuing to work is definitely impossible.
So the three siblings took the grief-stricken Su Yueya home first.
Su Yueya cried the whole way.
Qiao Gaoyang secretly winked at Su Yueya, telling her to stop crying, since there was still a tough battle to fight when she got home, and if she kept crying like this, she would probably cry herself dry.
"My Lord, sob sob... How could you die? I won't allow it!"
"Waaah... It's all fake, it's all fake, right?" After crying for a while, Su Yueya sat up and asked her brother and sister that it was all fake.
The two older brothers were alright, but Qiao Xinruo couldn't hold back at all. Although she didn't cry, her eyes reddened, and she secretly wiped away the tears that had overflowed.
