Chapter 1279: Identical

“Sister Li, what should we do? Is there really no ship?” the man asked with a sobbing tone.

Cheng Hao held his chest and squatted there. When he heard the sentence, he looked up with reddened eyes and said, “I threw all my wealth into this. For the sake of the ship, I divorced my wife. My child was also taken away. My company is gone, and there is nothing left! I will kill whoever dares say that there’s no ship!”

When Chen Long heard this, he punched him!

Cheng Hao was thrown to the ground!

Cheng Hao roared, “What are you doing?”

Chen Long said, “Nothing. I’m beating you to snap out of it! Your wife never left you and has always been waiting for you at home! Your child’s surname is still Cheng, and he has been waiting for you to return to bring him to the zoo! This is your promise! As for the company, I’m here! Why are you shouting?”

As Cheng Hao listened to these words, his heart felt like it was being pounded back and forth by a sledgehammer. Not only did his heart not feel good, but it hurt even more!

The 1.8-meter-tall man looked at Chen Long, tears streaming down his face. “I… I have no face to meet them. I was the one who yelled about a divorce…”

Chen Long said, “You wanted to take them with you. They just didn’t want to follow you. You haven’t reached a point of no return. Trust me, I’m here. I’m here to take you home.”

Cheng Hao hugged his head and started crying.

There were far more than one or two people that had similar situations as Cheng Hao. All of them fell into despair, and their eyes gradually lit up with the idea of death.

Thankfully, they had been brainwashed by Fangzheng over the past few days. All of them could accept the outcome.

Otherwise, if they knew that the ship didn’t exist, they would have gone crazy on the spot. They might have gone to murder Master Hairwood and the female assistant.

Even so, none of them could take it…

Some of them had had their families destroyed, some of their families were in shambles, while some of them had given all their assets to Master Hairwood. There were some who had nothing left.

All of a sudden, everyone felt as if they were not alone. They were just a lonely ghost having lofty dreams!

There was nothing…

They were alone.

“Enough!” Li Qing slapped the table and stood up. “Things have already come to this, what’s the point of crying?”

“What do you think we should do then?” Cheng Hao asked subconsciously.

Li Qing frowned and said, “We were just listening into their conversation. It might not be true. Perhaps there’s still a chance.”

Upon hearing that there was a chance, everyone instantly became energized.

This was akin to a person who had fallen into the sea and grabbed the last piece of straw. Although they knew that it was ridiculous, they still wanted to try it out and hope.

Li Qing said, “Continue acting. If they are really cheats, they will probably do what they did in the dream. If they really run away, it will prove everything. Let’s go… wipe away all your tears. It’s time to head out!”

With that said, Li Qing took the lead and left. The others glanced at each other and followed.

When they reached the classroom, the female assistant had already arrived. When she saw everyone’s bloodshot eyes, she frowned and asked, “What happened?”

Facing the female assistant who had been managing them for a long time, everyone was obviously a little apprehensive.

At that moment, Jiang Yumeng stood up and said, “We are about to leave Earth. We are going to abandon our homes, so everyone feels a little bitter. They were crying just now…”

This reason was believable, but it could not withstand any scrutiny.

Perhaps it was because the female assistant was preparing to abscond, so she didn’t have the energy to care about the loopholes in everyone’s thoughts. She only urged everyone to sit down and prepare for class.

Master Hairwood continued his lecture. “Students, in another two days, I will complete my promise to everyone. The ship will be arriving soon. I will spend the rest of the time with everyone. Tonight, we will be able to celebrate the last moments on Earth. All the expenses will be paid by the school. Once we leave Earth, you won’t have such a chance again. Alright, I’m tired. I’ll be getting some rest.”

With that said, Master Hairwood stood up and bade farewell.

What surprised him was that the students were not surprised at all. Instead, they looked at him strangely as though they were looking at something terrifying and despairing.

At this moment, Li Qing suddenly exclaimed, “That’s great! Thank you, Master Hairwood! The students are so happy that they are dumbfounded. This day has finally come. This feeling… is too complicated…”

The other students reacted and nodded.

Master Hairwood nodded and said, “In that case, I’ll leave the rest to your counselor.”

With that said, Master Hairwood left as though he was really tired.

Once Hairwood left, the female assistant walked up and said, “Everyone, Xewa is almost done with her preparations, but the boarding of the ship will attract too much attention…”

As soon as the female assistant spoke, Li Qing and the others subconsciously mumbled to themselves, “The landing of the spaceship requires a reliable berthing spot to prevent detection from the government or unnecessary trouble. Therefore, Master Hairwood wants to raise funds. Everyone who has the money to contribute, please do. After working hard for so long, we finally can see hope. I hope that everyone will not let us down at such a crucial moment…”

It was identical. It was exactly the same! Some of the words had changed, but there was no difference in the overall meaning!

Everyone pinched themselves. It hurt!

It was not a dream!

Everyone felt cold sweat appear on their foreheads. If it wasn’t a dream, but everything was like the dream, what would happen next?

Was that not a dream? That was the future?

This was everyone’s thoughts.

Even Li Qing, who had held onto her last hopes, felt as if she had been struck by lightning. Master Hairwood’s lecture and the words of the female assistant were exactly the same as what was said in the dream.

Was this really a coincidence?

At this moment, no one thought that it was a coincidence.

However, the crowd still didn’t give up. They were careful though. They claimed to give all their money to the female assistant, but they had actually kept some money.

Then the group of people ran back to their dormitory immediately and listened to the sounds from the phone.

As expected, the scene from the dream appeared once again. The female assistant laughed and called them idiots…

“Li Qing… We…” A student’s face turned ashen.

“I won’t give up until the end.” Li Qing said through gritted teeth. Although she said that she wouldn’t give up, everyone knew that the answer was already very obvious. There was no other outcome even if they tried to verify it again.

However, everyone understood that no one wanted to give up until the very last moment… No one wanted to admit defeat so easily after putting in so much effort.

As expected, when dinner was over, the female assistant used the money and treated everyone to a good meal. After that, they went to sing karaoke. Everyone pretended to smile and agreed before following her.

However, when the female assistant said that she had something on and needed to head back first, everyone just smiled and nodded. Once she left, everyone hailed a taxi and followed her back.
