Jin Xiangdong heard Lu Jia'er speaking about her past when she was unable to see or hear. He did not feel sorry for her when she was without the ability to hear or see and she did not need him to be sorry for her. But her past did make his heart ache. At the same time, he admired her for her perseverance. The willpower she had to build during her life was beyond the abilities of ordinary people to manifest. If she had not been in that car accident, she would not have turned into an AI, Jin Xiangdong was convinced that she could create miracles by herself.
Jin Xiangdong held Lu Jia'er's hand, their fingers crossed. The warmth from his hand passed into the palm of her hand and then spread, bit by bit, to her heart.
Lu Jia'er turned to look at him and smiled. That smile was embedded in Jin Xiangdong's eyes and rippled through him like tides.
