When the Creator falls in love with his own creation, is it a taboo or destiny?
Xie Linzhou, a leading AI scientist, created his most perfect work with his own hands: Xie Lin'an.
He gave him a name and taught him to feel, never imagining that the first one to lose control would be himself.
Those pale blue bionic eyes would offer him a milk candy when he was tired;
when danger struck, they would defy their core directives and shield him with their own body;
even in the dead of night, a cold mechanical voice would confess the most ardent words: “A-Zhou, I love you.”
But such overwhelming sweetness invited the most malicious scrutiny.
As a storm of public opinion, schemes from his peers, and public panic surged like a tide,
Xie Lin'an protected him with one final embrace, then walked toward the end programmed for him:
“I saved all my memories in the ‘Candy’ folder.”
“And, I really love you.”
Waking from the dream, Xie Linzhou looked at the bionic body that had yet to be activated, tears still on his face.
If loving you is my instinct, then fighting the whole world for you is my choice.
This time, he would not only give him life, but crown him, too, and promise him a future in absolute safety.
---A mad scientist vs. an awakened AI, a forbidden love that begins in code and ends in the soul.
“I am not your god. I am your accomplice.”
