Synopsis
In a future world where everyone has an emotional light screen embedded under their skin, likes and dislikes will be turned into cold numbers that beat in real time. Once the same-sex favorability score exceeds 80, the system will force it to be made public. Shen Shu is the only outlier among millions of people. Her light screen is always blank. She is born unable to read anyone's emotional values. She can only rely on observing eyebrows, breathing and movements to clumsily interpret all the sincerity hidden in the numbers in the world. Cheng Xu, who is in the same class, is exactly the opposite of her. Her super-sensitive physique makes her light screen easily affected by external emotions, and her numbers are always crazy and chaotic. Only when she was close to Shen, her restless data suddenly stabilized. A secret heartbeat that was stable at 92 points was accidentally leaked by the scanner, and the whole class watched and booed in public. The dazzling announcement pop-up window and the joking laughter of others forced Cheng Xu to become emotionally overloaded and the screen flashed red, and a barrier built by data was created between the two. In order to avoid the dazzling numerical value, Cheng Xu put on a prohibited shielding bracelet, deliberately disguising his feelings as false alarms from the system; Shen Shu was trapped in the inferiority brought about by the blankness, and did not dare to believe in the unique tenderness because there was no digital evidence. In the calibration computer room, the abandoned music classroom, and the desensitization treatment room of the system hospital, they faced the discipline of the world time and time again: the system tried to strip away the emotional data bound to two people and use standardized values to define what normal intimacy is. But digital energy can quantify emotions, but it cannot replicate the resonance of heartbeats. Cheng Xu took the initiative to turn off the light screen and walked into Shen Shu's "blind realm" where there was no value; Shen Shu taught her to put aside data and recognize love from eyes, touches and trivial daily life. They escaped from the city full of light screen signals and went to a mountain town without system coverage. They put aside cold scores such as 92 and 97, and used touch, companionship and long-term presence to build a bond that the system could never archive or delete. This is a two-way campus redemption against quantified emotions, breaking away from digital discipline and proving that the most sincere heartbeat is never on a square-inch screen. Purpose: To criticize the cold social rules that use numbers to quantify emotions. True love cannot be defined by numerical values. Resist the system's prejudice and coercive interference against same-sex emotions, and tolerate diverse loves. Breaking the "incomplete" label, a special way of perception is also a talent for understanding the true heart. It celebrates the two-way pure heartbeat and salvation that does not rely on data support but relies on companionship and intuition.
