The Uncontrollable Android

Zhuang Qingyu's intelligent bionic butler was poisoned, malfunctioned, and ran away.

He applied to the company he bought it from for a replacement.

Before the replacement arrived, Zhuang Qingyu suddenly lost contact with the outside world.

A week later, the company's customer service called again to ask about the replacement.

Zhuang Qingyu lay on the bed, struggling to hold back as he answered in a hoarse voice: "N-no, I don't want a replacement... He, he's fine. He hasn't malfunctioned..."

The customer service agent hung up happily and asked Zhuang Qingyu to leave a good review.

"Master, remember to leave a good review."

"Uh... O-okay... Ah..."

Behind him stood the bionic butler who had supposedly been "poisoned, malfunctioned, and run away." On the perfect face Zhuang Qingyu had personally customized was a warm, gentle smile.

"Then, Master, I'll get back to work."

"Wai- Ah..."

A very short story, written on a whim.
