Will androids have digital love?

For a moment, Qin Yan almost suffocated.

For so many years, he carefully kept the secret of his adolescence.

Never exposed o419's face to Xun Ruoqing——

Occasionally, when Xun Ruoqing returned to China and came to be a guest at home, he would always let o419 hide in the small compartment under the stairs where vacuum cleaners and other large appliances were stored.

o419 is very well behaved.Docile and quiet.

Of course—

It's an android.Obedience to the master is its built-in program.As long as Qin Yan needs it, he can stay in that narrow cubicle for a whole day, what it looks like when he is let in, and what it is when he opens the door and lets him out.

Not even a little sound.

So, until Xun Ruoqing walked into the room, he didn't know that the first prototype machine that he had left behind was actually in Qin Yan's house.

what should we do?

Qin Yan's scalp was numb, and the tips of his toes curled up because of tension.

Would Xun Ruoqing find him disgusting?

Will I not even have to be friends from now on?

Will it be...

"Wow!" Xun Ruoqing's surprised voice awakened Qin Yan from panic and deep self-loathing, "This is my first prototype! It turned out to be bought by you! At that time, I wondered where it came from Such a local tyrant would spend such a high price to buy a prototype machine that has already been planned to enter the assembly line and has no experimental value..."

Qin Yan did not expect him to react like this.

The whole person froze in place.

After being stunned for a moment, he tentatively asked, "Are you...not angry? Don't you feel...disgusted?"

"Why are you angry?" Xun Ruoqing immediately asked back, as if he felt that his question was inexplicable, but soon he didn't hold back, stuck out his tongue, squinted and scratched his head with a smile, "Well, when I was young, I was full of self-esteem. It's relatively tall, "I don't eat what you come to eat" or something, but now I'm almost 30 years old, and I'm already a mature social person, okay? ——Even if I go to the laboratory every day, I know that money is the lubricant of this world, It is impossible to have no money. Besides, even when I had the highest self-esteem, I did not treat you as an outsider... The scholarship sponsored by your family has always been...cough." At this point, Xun Ruoqing stopped, embarrassed rubbed his nose.

Qin Yan didn't know why Xun Ruoqing suddenly brought up the issue of money.

But in this case, he really couldn't find anything else to say, so he could only give a sign of approval and listen quietly.

Xun Ruoqing didn't notice his strangeness, and continued dancing on her own, "I know why you bought it anonymously. Did you hear that the sponsor of my laboratory went bankrupt and wanted to give me money, but was afraid that I wouldn't accept it?" Ah? As expected of Brother Yan, you are so thoughtful. It was really difficult that time, and I couldn’t hold back my face to find a new sponsor. In fact, even if I did, it would take a while... In short, it was a matter of life and death. It’s autumn, thanks to the money from you, the laboratory didn’t go bankrupt, and my follow-up two half-finished test models didn’t go in vain. When I received the money, tears were about to come down, thinking to myself One day let me know this kind-hearted person, I will definitely dedicate my knees to him! I never thought it was you, Brother Yan..."

Xun Ruoqing was still chirping excitedly.

On the outside, he is already a well-known scientist known for his maturity and calmness.

In front of Qin Yan, he still looks like a child who can't grow up.

Qin Yan stared blankly at the rapidly opening and closing lips in front of him—after so many years, the original pink lips had shown signs of dryness due to lack of maintenance, and it was inevitable that they would be stained with lip lines—the mind was blank for a while , finally raised his hand to press the swollen temple:

It turned out that Xun Ruoqing thought so.

It turned out that even if Xun Ruoqing knew about it, things would not change in any way...

Xun Ruoqing was still eloquent.

As long as he encounters things related to bionics, he is always in high spirits: "...but such an old model, can it still be used now? If you are not used to mass-produced machines on the market, I will make an advanced... ..."

"No, don't!" With just one sentence, Qin Yan came back to his senses and interrupted him quickly, "I want this one."

"Huh...?" Xun Ruoqing dragged his voice long and raised his voice to express doubts.

Qin Yan coughed lightly: "Being by my side for a long time, I have feelings."

"What?" Xun Ruoqing burst into laughter, "What's the matter with your old-age-like usage habits? It's just like my mother—my mother also took a lot of old robots and bionics I made when I was young. Now at home They are all antique style…”

"No, I just think it's good." Qin Yan interrupted him with a sullen face.

Xun Ruoqing raised his head and glanced at him casually, then continued carelessly: "Hey, don't change if you don't want to, don't be so nervous, of course I respect the master's opinion, just help you with a routine inspection..."

As Xun Ruoqing said, she quickly opened the tool bag she was carrying, knelt down on one knee in front of o419's bed and began to work: "It's pretty well maintained, what a surprise, I thought you would be a rougher user... ..."

"How is it possible!" Qin Yan deeply felt the insult.

It is naturally impossible to use o419 contemporary supplies.

It's even more impossible when you don't use o419 contemporary products^.

Even at the stage when he lost his temper inexplicably because o419 was not like Xun Ruoqing, he never really did anything outrageous to o419.

On the one hand, the o419 is an early prototype.High technology is the most expensive when it is new.The price of such an exquisite bionic person is even more staggering, plus the freight of the chartered flight, it is enough to buy a small villa in the city center of a first-tier city.

Even with Qin Yan's wealth, he can be regarded as "those who have lost all their wealth and turned into a beauty", and he is not willing to do anything casually.

On the other hand... no matter how depressed the mood is, Qin Yan still understands rationally: all this is his own problem, and o419 is innocent - he was just forced to be involved in the inexplicable emotions of the master, in the sphere of the bionic man The "obedience" clause had to cooperate with him to perform.

During the short time when reason overcame emotion, Qin Yan even felt guilty towards o419.Thus crazy compensation.

Although he himself knows that such compensation is nothing but self-deception-in the eyes of bionics, whether it is his chaotic emotions or his extreme "humanistic" compensation, it may be just a part of "human behavior without logic". Just a small amount of evidence.

"I'm just talking, there's no need to be so fierce," Xun Ruoqing didn't expect Qin Yan to react so strongly, and stuck out his tongue again.

"I... really don't, I love it very much." Qin Yan said solemnly—he didn't know why he emphasized this point.

Xun Ruoqing didn't care about that.

And the o419 is not turned on, so it cannot be heard at all.

"Yes, yes," Xun Ruoqing nodded indiscriminately, "Elderly people love each other very much. My mother even makes handmade dust covers for them one by one, corduroy with lace..."

"It's not that kind of love!" Qin Yan was about to explode.

Xun Ruoqing finished the inspection, clapped her hands and stood up: "Okay, okay, you don't have to explain this to me, I'm not from the extreme bionic rights organization - the backup is complete, the machine is in good condition, and it can be restarted now. Even There is no eyeball, and it does not affect the use, because it is a prototype, I have installed a super-sacred positioning system on it, and I will help you start it and teach you..."

"No, don't, don't!" Qin Yan hurriedly stopped—blocked in front of o419, with a subconscious and completely protective posture.

But he didn't notice it himself.

Xun Ruoqing, who was packing up the tools, didn't notice either, but replied without raising her head: "Okay, then you can work hard and get back the original parts——I'll remind you again out of friendship, and you still use this old machine at this time." Most of the type of people are old and stubborn. It is not easy to dig out the hard-won parts from them. You have to be mentally prepared.”

"I know."

"Really don't consider replacing replacement parts?"

"Do not."

Xun Ruoqing is the producer.

The perspective of looking at bionics is more objective than that of ordinary humans.

And Qin Yan...

Qin Yan is different.

For him, o419 is no longer a "large household appliance" as stipulated by law.

But...

With special significance, another kind of existence.

He wants o419 to come back intact.

From head to toe, from inside to outside, without a single strand of hair is not called "complete".

— No matter how difficult it is.
