Chapter 706: Chapter 45 The Moon Girl_4 Chapter 706: Chapter 45 The Moon Girl_4 “Xiangyue, this ticket for the flight to the Moon was gifted to you by Lin Xian, who paid the full amount with a bearer check that was exactly 12 million US dollars.
Lin Xian, do you know this person?”
Zheng Xiangyue quickly nodded:
“Lin Xian?
Of course, I know him!
He celebrated my birthday with me last year!”
As she spoke, she shifted her body and brought out a huge Rhein Cat Doll from behind her, saying with a giggling smile:
“Look!
This is the birthday present Brother Lin Xian gave me!
He said this Rhein Cat is a super limited edition!
There are only two in the whole world!”
“Wow, that’s wonderful.” Jask clapped enthusiastically:
“Yes, it was your Brother Lin Xian who gave you this ticket.
Does he come to visit you often?”

At this point.Zheng Xiangyue bit her lip and gently shook her head:
“It’s been a long time since Brother Lin Xian last came…
His last visit was when he took Xu Yiyi to Dragon Science Academy, to sleep in the Hibernation Pod.
Since then, he has never come back…”
Xu Yiyi?
Upon hearing this name, Jask immediately remembered.
She must be the vegetative daughter of Professor Xu Yun.
Two years ago, Professor Xu Yun suddenly announced Hibernation Pod Filling Liquid, which sensationalized the whole world, and Jask also saw the widespread coverage.
He didn’t need to guess to know that Professor Xu Yun’s death must have been orchestrated by Copernicus; the patterns of behavior were too obvious.
So it turned out…
Xu Yiyi had been sharing a ward with Zheng Xiangyue all along.
He looked up and continued:
“Xiangyue, the first thing today is bringing you the ticket.
The second thing is, I want to tell you about a promise…
It’s also related to the Hibernation Pod.”
“Personally, I still hope that you can wait for the Hibernation Pod technology to mature and go into hibernation as soon as possible, to sleep until humanity can treat congenital heart disease; and then, when your body is completely healthy, consider this Moon journey.”
“I promise you, this ticket to the Moon will always be valid and never expire.
No matter when you wake up, no matter when you want to make this trip, my company and I will unconditionally launch your flight.
Even if there’s only you as a passenger on that flight, we will still launch as usual, definitely bringing you safely to the Moon.”
Zheng Xiangyue took a deep breath.
She looked at Jask incredulously:
“Really…
is that true?”
She had always been worried about this issue, so when Brother Lin Xian asked her if she wanted to hibernate with Xu Yiyi, she shook her head and refused.
If this ticket could really be valid forever…
She really didn’t mind waiting a bit longer, till her body was healed, before undertaking this journey to the Moon.
“Really!
Of course, it’s true!”
Jask smiled and took out his phone:
“Let us take a selfie and post it on Twitter, then.
It responds to those detractors and also records our agreement online, making this promise remain in effect forever.”
Saying so, Jask opened the front camera, took a happy photo with Zheng Xiangyue and the ticket, and posted his promise on a tweet:
“There, Xiangyue, now the whole world knows you have a Moon ticket that will never expire.
So, go heal yourself at ease, whether it’s decades or centuries from now…
even if you lose this ticket, Jask and Space-T will always owe you a flight to the Moon, ready to fulfill it any time!”
He smiled, put away his phone.
Then turned to look outside the door.
He found…
the person he was waiting for seemed not to have arrived.
Isn’t it too slow, Lin Xian?
I’m several hours late, how come you still haven’t arrived?
Since you’re not here yet, let’s talk a bit more then.
He turned back to Zheng Xiangyue:
“So, Xiangyue, why do you love the idea of going to the Moon so much?
What do you want to do on the Moon?”
“I want to bury my brother on the Moon!”
Zheng Xiangyue said with a smile, uttering a thought-provoking phrase.
Jask tilted his head:
“Brother?”
Zheng Xiangyue pointed to the urn on the bedside table:
“Yes, that’s my brother.”
Seeing the urn, Jask realised suddenly and joined his hands together:
“Oh, I’m sorry.
My condolences.”
“Actually…
my original wish was for my brother to bury me on the Moon.”
Zheng Xiangyue placed the ticket to the Moon on top of the urn, looked at her brother’s black-and-white photo, and said softly:
“Brother said, after our parents passed away, their souls are on the Moon, watching over us from the Moon above…
So…
I thought, after I passed away, to let my brother bury me on the Moon too, to reunite with Mom and Dad on the Moon.”
“I brought up this wish to my brother countless times, but he never agreed.

He said he would not watch me die and would definitely find a way to cure me…
I never imagined that my strong and mighty brother would die before me.”
“Now that my brother is gone, I can only bury his ashes on the Moon myself.
If I also can’t come back, then I’ll be buried together with him, and on the Moon we’ll still be a family with Mom and Dad.
If I can return to Earth, then every night I will look up at the Moon, knowing…
Mom, Dad, and brother are definitely watching over me from there.”
…
Jask listened, smacking his lips.
He rubbed his nose with his left hand and stroked his chin stubble.
It didn’t feel quite right.
He could tell.
In Zheng Xiangyue’s innocent life, it was really surrounded by well-intentioned lies.
