For nearly a year since the death of his fiancée, Ye Mingshuang, Shi Yi has been consumed by a grief that traps him in the past. His world is frozen in a fog of sorrow.

Then, a miraculous intrusion: an android, perfectly identical and designated “Ye Mingshuang II”, inexplicably arrives.

Built with a complete synthetic body and the world’s most advanced A.I., she is a flawless copy of the woman he tragically lost. Shi Yi submerges himself in her comfort, desperate for companionship, yet fiercely guards his heart.

He constantly reinforces the cold truth: he loves the woman who is gone, not a string of code, a fabricated personality, or a simple copy molded from memory.

But the longer they are together, the more Shi Yi is stunned by a terrifying realization: the bionic woman might be more than just an android. Could fate truly grant a man the impossible—a second chance at love?

When he finally confronts her, Ye Shuangming delivers the final, shattering blow with a gentle, knowing smile: “I’m sorry. Now that I am a ‘human’ with self-awareness, I regretfully have to call you: Mr. Shi, ex-boyfriend… ex-fiancé.”
