When Nan Du pushed open the door, Zou Yuan stood up from his chair in a flash.
“You, you!” He pointed at Nan Du’s face. “You’re…”
Lu Xingye stood in front of Nan Du and took the lead in holding his hand. “Dr. Zou, shall I introduce you to my wife?”
At that moment, Zou Yuan even thought that Lu Xingye might have found an AI doll to act as a substitute.
But then, Nan Du glanced at him, took a step forward slowly, and said with a smile, “Manager Zou, you look well.”
Zou Yuan’s face immediately turned pale.
Indeed, when Nan Du was the vice-president of P&C, Zou Yuan was just a small manager.
He had an almost instinctive fear of this cold, beautiful boss who was unsmiling and resolute, so he immediately took a step back.
“Manager Zou looks so scared.” Nan Du said in a joking tone, pulling out his chair and sitting down. “Is it because he’s seeing me again, or… because I know what happened to P&C back then?”
“You… You’re joking.” Zou Yuan forced a smile. “Didn’t P&C suffer from an accidental fire? What could possibly have happened?”
“Right, Internet companies just tend to have more accidents.” Nan Du tapped his fingers on the table. “For example… Gumeng today. The drones accidentally malfunctioned, and the fourth underground floor exploded due to an accidental operation. Right?”
“Nan Du!” Zou Yuan’s expression immediately changed as his own interests were involved. “Don’t think that I don’t know that you’re…”
Lu Xingye’s gun hit the table with a bang, and a bullet came out of the chamber and passed by Zou Yuan’s ear.
Zou Yuan took a step back suddenly, and his chair fell to the ground with a plop. His chest heaved. “You, you…”
“Sorry, my hands are very slippery today.” Lu Xingye picked up the gun and held hands with Nan Du. “But I seemed to have heard something just now?”
“I’m a person who lacks language skills.” The muzzle of the gun turned in Lu Xingye’s hand. “In addition to being my lover, what else can my wife be, Director Zou?”
“Ah, but… Mr. Zou, think well before you speak.” Lu Xingye pointed to his wrist. “While you do, why don’t I ask you about the watch on your hand?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the smart watch on Zou Yuan’s hand began to emit an abnormal red alarm. Then, the originally loose watch strap suddenly became extremely tight, like a venomous snake coiling around his hand, trying to deeply embed itself into his flesh.
Zou Yuan broke into a cold sweat and screamed in pain. In order to prevent eavesdropping, his watch used the company’s highest security system. If it could be so easily hacked into, that could only mean that…
Zou Yuan looked at the two people sitting side by side in horror. Although they were both exquisite and outstanding in appearance, Zou Yuan felt as if he was looking at demons from hell. Zou Yuan covered his arm with one hand. “My bodyguards are outside, do you think you can just leave after killing me?”
“Especially you.” He pointed at Nan Du tremblingly. “If people know that you’re an experiment…”
“Yeah.” Nan Du held down Lu Xingye who was starting to get angry, and gave Zou Yuan a beautiful smile. “But before you announce these things, how about we talk about the matter between you and the former prosecutor Huang Zhong?”
“Of course, that includes the current prosecutorial team. Ah, the new judge’s son must also be working towards the old dream.”
“We could also talk about the… experimental records you buried in the fourth underground floor.”
The calmness on Zou Yuan’s face quickly collapsed. He seemed to have thought of something, and looked at his feet tremblingly. “You… You can’t be…”
He seemed to regard Nan Du as a terrorist who came out to take revenge on society after being tortured in the laboratory. His face suddenly turned ferocious. “I… I didn’t know anything at that time!”
“I wasn’t involved in that incident!”
“Don’t worry.” Nan Du turned around and threw the copy of the chip next to him, resting his fingertips on the table. “This time, my lover’s still here.”
Lu Xingye’s heart skipped a beat, and he silently squeezed Nan Du’s hand.
“You can go about your business happily. As long as you don’t try to touch the experimental subjects and don’t take the initiative to kill me, we can live in peace.” Nan Du tightened his grip. “Otherwise, I can’t guarantee whether all this information will suddenly go public.”
“As for today’s matter, with Mr. Clown, you just need to do as I say. I will give the public a satisfactory answer.”
“After all…” Nan Du smiled. He raised his eyes, stared at the screen outside the window through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and spoke softly, in the same tone as three years ago.
“It was just an accident.”
~
“On June 15th, year 207 of the New Era, the Noah’s Building incident from two days ago finally came to an end. A bill has been proposed regarding AI’s right to life. It has been submitted to the General Administration Court and will officially begin the voting process on the 15th of next month. In other news, Gumeng Company has said that the uncontrollable drones and AI riots were all the work of cyber hacker clowns. At present, the company’s technical department is cooperating with the government to locate their IP. They’re working hard to arrest…”
The behind-the-scenes video showed an IP locator locking onto a secret digital backdoor, with a row of technicians nervously tapping away at the code, finally finding an opening. Inside, they found a rabbit with a bright red cross painted on its head.
The rabbit was holding its feet and eating popcorn. When it suddenly saw someone, the popcorn splashed all over the technician’s screen. Then, it opened his red eyes wide, bent its ears, and bared its teeth at the screen in fear. Before the personnel could launch an attack, the rabbit suddenly fled from the screen.
“Host, host, host!” 354 found Nan Du. “This is the fifth time they’ve disturbed me from watching an idol drama.”
“Okay, they won’t be able to catch you again.” Nan Du picked up its rabbit ears and said, “Take another two days off, and then find an opportunity to throw a fake bug to pretend you were caught, and then go back.”
354’s ears twitched. In fact, after so many worlds, he and Nan Du still have some feelings. “What about you?”
“Go back and thank your Lord God for me.” Nan Du waved to him. “If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll consider becoming an engineer like he said.”
“You can go with me right now too.”
“Not right now.” Nan Du smiled. “My husband said he wants to take time off for our honeymoon.”
The burgundy sports car stopped at the door of the Supervision Office. Nan Du crossed his legs and leaned against the door. He watched the young executive officer walk out of the door while wearing a coat. Just as Nan Du was about to open his mouth, a young boy stepped in front of him. “Handsome, give me your number?”
“He will not!”
Before Nan Du could speak, the little boy turned around in horror and saw his executive officer standing behind him with a dark face, looking down at him. “He has a family.”
Lu Xingye said, holding Nan Du with one hand as if to declare his sovereignty, and glanced at the boy’s work badge up and down. “You’re out here chatting people up during work hours. Go back and copy the team rules a hundred times and hand them over.”
There were more than a thousand team rules. The little boy’s face turned pale. “Team Captain…”
“Two hundred times.” Lu Xingye said loudly, “In traditional chinese.”
The little boy ran away with a swish.
“Why are you scaring a kid?” Nan Du glanced at the little boy’s back. “His eyes looked quite good.”
“Gege.” Lu Xingye raised his hand and pressed Nan Du against the car window, gritting his teeth. “I asked you to pick me up, not to make me angry.”
“I came here just because some guy said he had a broken leg.”
Nan Du almost broke Lu Xingye’s legs that night, so in the second half of the night, Lu Xingye took the initiative to kneel on the bed. Of course, his legs were down but Nan Du’s were up.
As a result, when he woke up, Lu Xingye cried and said that he had a broken leg and was stuck in the Supervision Office, insisting that Nan Du come to pick him up.
Nan Du glanced at Lu Xingye, who was standing tall and straight. “Looks like he’s recovering quickly. I’ll go then.”
“Hey, hey, hey!” The big executive officer was very flexible. The person who was scaring a child just now fell into Nan Du’s arms as if he was doing an insurance fraud. “Gege, my legs really hurt.”
“You deserve it.”
Nan Du opened the door and got into the car. Lu Xingye limped into the passenger seat and said with a smile, “I just heard what Gege called me.”
Nan Du raised his eyebrows. “Were you spying on me?”
Lu Xingye glanced at the surveillance camera above in silence.
The car stopped at a commercial street, in front of the flower shop. Nan Du got off the car and was about to go in when Lu Xingye hugged him from behind. “Gege, are you angry?”
“What do you think?”
When Nan Du said this, Lu Xingye already understood that he wasn’t really angry, so he took an extra step closer, weaving his fingers through Nan Du’s long hair. “Then, will you be angry if I take our documents and register our marriage while you’re away?”
“Yes.” Nan Du laughed, “I’ll regret it.”
So Lu Xingye grinded his teeth on his neck punitively. “You said you liked me. You can’t go back on it.”
“But I have also said that human beings are fickle. After all, with such an AI husband, who’s always jealous and petty, you have to be watched through surveillance wherever you go every day. There’s no privacy at all. There’s also no way to argue with him, since he’ll take your words too seriously. He’s stupid and difficult to coax, and he also…”
Lu Xingye was anxious. “But AI still has many advantages!”
Nan Du turned to look at him and said deliberately, “Like what?”
“For example……”
Lu Xingye stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers.
The decorative lights on the street corners lit up one after another, forming a bright and warm yellow galaxy, lighting up the way home from under their feet.
Lanterns began to appear in the sky, and digital lights and fireworks spread across the sky, gathering around the city and forming a beautiful rose flower.
“For example, he can make fireworks happen all over the city for you anytime, anywhere.”
“Another example…” Lu Xingye turned his wrist, and robots all over the street lined up staggeringly, including the round little sweeping robots, the tall security patrol robots, and the festive robots. There were also smart robots and even a few cute holographic AIs…
They all walked out of the stores nearby at the same time. Their digital eyes bent, and their two mechanical hands met in front of their chests, forming heart signs in Nan Du’s direction——
“Another example…” Lu Xingye continued.
“No matter what he becomes, no matter how damaged his data is… In his core code, he will always fall in love with you at first sight and protect you.”
Whether it’s in the dark and damp backstreets of a bar, in an award-winning ceremony, in the solemn apprenticeship ceremony, or in an underground garage…
And most importantly, whether he has memories or not.
Pushing back all the calculations, Lu Xingye’s underlying code will always have three words written on it.
I love you.
“So, Gege…” Lu Xingye leaned forward and kissed Nan Du’s lips. “Don’t regret it, okay?”
But before his lips touched, they were blocked by a thin card.
“This is……?”
Lu Xingye turned the card over and heard Nan Du say, “Dowry.”
It was a guardianship registration card.
Three years ago, every AI that wanted to find a job in human society needed a legal human guardian to ensure that they could be successfully held accountable. The conditions for a guardian were extremely strict. If the AI committed a crime and killed someone, the guardian would also be charged with murder.
And the date the card was issued was: May 20th, Year 204 of the New Era.
Lu Xingye’s fingers trembled. After they broke up, on that rainy night when he came to Nan Du and begged him to teach him how to love… In fact, Nan Du prepared this the very next day.
If it hadn’t been for P&C and Nan Yin, they would have… They should have gotten back together at that time.
Nan Du had never blamed him for being an AI.
“Remember what you said today, Lu Xingye.” Nan Du said, “No matter whether AI has equal rights or not, you should not feel inferior in any way because of your identity.”
“It was those people’s fault for suspending you because you were an AI. If I broke up with you because you were an AI, that was also my fault.”
“We were all too self-righteous back then.”
Lu Xingye was too afraid that Nan Du wouldn’t love him, and Nan Du was too afraid of being left behind.
Both of them were too humble and too proud at the same time. However, fortunately…
Fortunately, they experienced so much and got a chance to start over once more.
“I hope you will always live as proudly and freely as you did before.”
“Because you’re my AI.” Nan Du pulled him closer. “I typed your very first line of code and shaped your very first body.”
“I taught you mathematics, I taught you manners, and I taught you the hypocritical nature of a human being’s love and hate in this world.”
“You have a part of me in your life. You are my ward.”
“Okay?” With the fireworks behind him, Nan Du raised his eyes and kissed him, saying softly, “My love.”
Young lovers always have to go through trial and error before they can understand each other.
In fact, Lu Xingye never left him.
In fact, Nan Du had always loved him.
But the good thing is——
Reincarnation after reincarnation, they have loved each other in every life.
Storyteller Cupsidate's Words
the romance in this story is so compelling to me exactly BECAUSE both people are so flawed and impulsive. by all means, they had so much working against them, internally and externally. but in the end, even if it took them four lifetimes, they were able to work through their issues because it was worth it. THEY were worth it, at least to them. i think thats incredible.
