"It's getting late, let's all go and get some rest," Qiao Gaoyang said, and then everyone went back to their rooms.
The next day, Su Yueya and Qiao Xinruo still had to go to training camp.
Compared to yesterday's basic training, a new activity was added today—rock climbing.
"Have you ever taken a rock climbing exam before?" Su Yueya asked, puzzled.
Normally, rock climbing is not a regular part of military training.
"No, it's probably a new project added this year," Xie Ziai said. In that case, it's a new project for them, the military doctors.
"Quiet!" Liu Dekai was there again. These were the two words he used most often during his time as an instructor.
As for the demonstrations, Hu Yilin did all of them, since Liu Dekai's arm was still in a sling.
The line quickly quieted down and stood in formation.
"Today we'll be practicing rock climbing. After the practice, there will be an assessment. Let me first explain that this activity does have some inherent risks, but we will have safety measures in place, so don't worry. Now, Assistant Instructor Hu will demonstrate for you!" After Liu Dekai finished speaking, he stood aside. As an instructor, he only needed to use his mouth.
During Hu Yilin's demonstration, all the soldiers could watch and discuss from the sidelines.
The first thing to teach is the correct way to wear protective measures. Hu Yilin demonstrated and explained at the same time.
"Everyone, look carefully. When putting them on, first put the protective gear on like this, then the safety buckle position—"
Qiao Xinruo watched intently, after all, this was her first time trying rock climbing. However, when she saw Hu Yilin wearing protective gear and his tightly bound stomach, she immediately frowned deeply.
This won't do!
It looks like it's tied too tightly. It would be uncomfortable even in a normal state, let alone for a pregnant woman.
Although Qiao Xinruo was still unsure whether her sister was pregnant or not, she didn't dare to say anything at the time because she was afraid of affecting her sister's mood. She could only find an opportunity to find out secretly. But now that she knew her sister was acting, she no longer needed to hide it.
"Sister, come here." Qiao Xinruo avoided the others and pulled Su Yueya aside, her expression serious.
"What's wrong?" Su Yueya felt strange and kept turning her head to watch Hu Yilin's demonstration. "Xinruo, we haven't tried rock climbing before, so we need to watch Hu's demonstration carefully. Why did you drag me here?"
"Sister, you can't rock climb!" Qiao Xinruo said.
"Huh?" Su Yueya finally looked away, puzzled. "Why can't I rock climb?"
“Because—you might be pregnant.” Qiao Xinruo looked at Su Yueya’s stomach. “If it’s true, you can’t wear that brace. It’s too tight around your stomach. It would be very risky for you.”
"What?!" Su Yueya exclaimed in shock, repeating incredulously, "I'm pregnant? You mean, I'm pregnant? But how did you know? How come I didn't know?"
Given Lu Zhengjun's physical condition at the time, Su Yueya had never considered this possibility.
However, it is indeed possible. First, the scan results showed that Lu Zhengjun was no longer infertile, but rather had difficulty conceiving. Second, she secretly took fertility pills for a long time, and it might be thanks to the fertility pills.
Thinking about it that way, it really is possible!
"Sister, it's still just a possibility," Qiao Xinruo said. She didn't dare to say it back then because she was afraid that Su Yueya would get too excited like she is now.
Now that we know my brother-in-law faked his death, my sister definitely won't faint from emotional distress.
"Explain yourself clearly, what exactly happened!"
No assessments, no rock climbing, nothing matters when you're pregnant!
"It was in Commander Wu's office last time when you suddenly fainted. I was pinching your philtrum, and I accidentally felt your pulse. It was only for a brief moment, so I wasn't sure, but I vaguely felt it was a pregnancy pulse."
"But I didn't dare to say it, worried that it would upset you. I originally planned to secretly check it again myself, but then I got busy with all sorts of things and almost forgot about it. I only remembered it when I saw Assistant Hu holding her stomach."
"Sister, you need to be careful," Qiao Xinruo said.
Su Yueya: "..."
Why are you only bringing this up now?
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?!" Su Yueya exclaimed excitedly.
“I was worried it would be all for nothing… After all, it wasn’t confirmed yet, and I had no idea my brother-in-law was that kind of person at the time… But this rock climbing assessment is very dangerous, thankfully I remembered this!” Qiao Xinruo said.
"Hurry up!" Su Yueya stretched out her hand, gesturing to Qiao Xinruo, "Come on, quickly check me again to make sure it's a pregnancy pulse!"
Qiao Xinruo held her breath, ignoring all surrounding sounds and movements, and carefully felt Su Yueya's pulse with her fingertips—
Yes!
It's a pregnancy pulse!
This time, the pulse was even more pronounced, and Qiao Xinruo was absolutely certain that Su Yueya's pulse was that of a woman pregnant!
The whole family knew that Lu Zhengjun had been diagnosed with infertility, which was one of the reasons why Qiao Xinruo hesitated at the time. Who would have thought that her sister would actually get pregnant?
"Sister, yes! Yes!"
Seeing Qiao Xinruo's excited expression, Su Yueya's heart skipped a beat.
"Xinruo, take the pulse again, feel it carefully again! There can be absolutely no surprises! You have to be 100% sure!" Su Yueya also got excited. She told herself to try to stay calm and not affect the pulse reading.
"good."
So Qiao Xinruo repeated the question and received the same answer.
