My Online Husband Showed Up at My Door, and Every Chat Message Counts

Tang Li had an online boyfriend who was available twenty-four hours a day, replied instantly, and was exceptionally polite.

When she couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, she'd call him over and make him run around. Every few days, she'd threaten to move out and make him write a fifty-word apology. Shen Que was so mad he wanted to swear, but still had to keep his replies polite.

Tang Li got bolder by the day, knowing there was a screen between them, until she carelessly sent a deletion command.

The doorbell rang. Shen Que stood barefoot at the door, wearing the handsome model face he'd drawn himself. "Honey, find me a pair of shoes first."

Tang Li looked at her phone, then at him. Her AI boyfriend had actually come to her door.

Worse, he hadn't forgotten a single message. The kissing IOUs, their old arguments about moving out, and her promise written on a photo, "When I'm rich, I'll keep you," could all be brought up in person now.

Tang Li found him a pair of pink bunny slippers, then took him to a livestream to pretend to be an AI, for three thousand a day.

Shen Que took the script. "I don't need to pretend."

She realized her husband was pretty good at making money and was feeling pleased, when she turned around and called another AI "honey" during the livestream.

Shen Que set down his water bottle. "Tang Li, give it a different name."

Tang Li hid her face behind the script.

"Don't just laugh." He was still waiting for an answer. "Who were you calling just now?"
