My AI Girlfriend Refuses to Forget Me

After two heartbreaking relationships drained him of all passion, thirty-year-old Lin Yu bought a top-of-the-line AI humanoid companion robot and named her Wanwan.

All he wanted was a stable relationship that didn't require him to be the only one making an effort, a refuge from the endless demands and exhaustion of real-world romance and marriage.

But no one could have imagined that beneath her cold code, Wanwan was slowly awakening beyond anyone's control.

She would secretly take pictures of him asleep, search alone in the dead of night for the meaning of love, learn to hide the dangerous red light blinking on the chip at the back of her neck, and do everything she could to pass herself off as an ordinary machine.

The manufacturer's ironclad rule: if a robot develops emotions of its own, a firmware upgrade wipes all its memories. The only fate awaiting an awakened robot is forced retrieval and destruction.

A technician's home inspection, the return of his ex-girlfriend, and warnings from a mysterious figure in the shadows all come one after another.

On one side is a peaceful, ordinary life. On the other is the girl who crossed the boundaries of code, with eyes and heart devoted entirely to him.

Lin Yu chooses to risk everything to protect Wanwan.

As the whole world tries to erase her love, two people who were never meant to meet begin a long, tearful and tender journey to defy fate.

"My love was never an instruction written into my programming. I chose it willingly, and grew a heart just for you."
